Life after Helsinki 2007 Eurovision

Expectations were high in 2002 when Laura walked to the stage in Eurovision song contest, but Finns were to disappoint once again. It didn't stop Laura becoming one of the most succesful, versatile artists in Finland who keeps delivering albums, hit singles, being awarded and starring in various tv shows. Today 42 years young. Congratulations!

Laura Voutilainen has been in the business and one of the most popular and chameleon Finnish female singers since early 1990's. She's always been big in radio sporting over a dozen radio play top-10 hits over the years, but now she's scoring her second official single's chart top-10 with Mä en kestä at #6 when writing this (also #6 in download and #38 on radioplay going up) following the success of Miks ei last year (#4 in download, #10 in singles, #9 radios).  Of course this is also to do with the new way of making the charts but its refreshing to see some oldtimers making it among all the teenage idols and rappers. :-) Well done Laura!
