Whenever a Nokia mobile phone rings I start to sing: "soittoäänet kaikki yhtä ärsyttäviä", so my family has already learnt this small phrase... :D

I really liked this. Very clever. Except, of course, for the minute+ of deadly silence at the end.
Oh yeah, and thanks for the subtitles!

Kyllä tämä hän oli hyvä kappale :D Terveisiä ruotsista. Voititte viime kerralla että älkää enää valittako.
Too bad to all you who don't speak finnish, it was so much better than when I read the subs.

I saw this 1st on Current tv. I thought, "I have to find this video and share it with my friends on Facebook. " So I did. Now I am gonna add it to my youtube channel. Thank you Helsinki Complaints Choir. Thank you.

I like it! If you tell what disturbes you it will be better for your soul (and body):-)

Ah, great! They complained about much the same things as I - I especially loved the complaint about people standing at the end of escalators! And the daily paper IS too thick! (Never have time to read it all through!)
I noticed that the Helsinki people had much more complaints than the Birmingham people.
Are people in Bham generally happier than people in Hki? It's not fair! On se niin väärin!

There's something so cool about finnish. The words are so clever, but the language makes is sounds so much better.
