Visual artist and DJ Windows95Man won the Finnish UMK with the song No Rules! written by Teemu Keisteri (= Windows95man), Jussi Roine and Henri Piispanen.
Henri Piispanen is the main vocalist of the song and W95♂ does the shouting, bouncing, running around and some epic pyrotechnic spinning in correct length denim shorts.
No Rules! was released as a digital single on January 16.
The Spa Mix was released on April 19, they could have called it the Gregorian Chant mix. Nice one.
On April 26 the classical version was released. Recorded with the Tapiola Sinfonietta.
Megamix EP
The No Rules! Megamix EP was released on June 14.
The digital release features six versions of the song (see versions below)
Update:
A cdsingle with the same 6 tracks is now available here
Windows95
No Rules!? The EBU has some though and they are very clear about product placement in the Song Contest and even though the Windows95 computer operating system is long out of stock, Windows is still a brand. Teemu knows and has changed (blurred) the t-shirts for Malmö.
