Finland in the Eurovision Song Contest 2012

Finland was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2012 with the song "", written by Jonas Karlsson, and performed by Pernilla Karlsson. The Finnish participating broadcaster, (Yle), organised the national final in order to select its entry for the contest. 13 entries were selected to compete in the national final, which consisted of four performance shows and a final, taking place in January and February 2012. Six entries ultimately competed in the final on 25 February where votes from the public selected "När jag blundar" performed by Pernilla Karlsson as the winner.

Finland was drawn to compete in the first semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 22 May 2012. Performing during the show in position 9, "När jag blundar" was not announced among the top 10 entries of the first semi-final and therefore did not qualify to compete in the final. It was later revealed that Finland placed twelfth out of the 18 participating countries in the semi-final with 41 points. Provided by Wikipedia
