A shock revelation in Finland where One Morning Left, with the song Puppy, have been removed from the UMK 2025 national selection.

Anssi Autio, the UMK  executive producer for YLE states – “Unfortunately, One Morning Left will not be seen in this year’s UMK, as the band has not fully complied with the competition’s rules. The decision also involved the rules of the Eurovision Song Contest, set by the EBU, which clearly state that such a rule violation is an unequivocal obstacle to Eurovision representation.”

One Morning Left will not be replaced in the UMK 2025 final on 8 February.

The six finalists are –

• Neea River 
• Nelli Matula 
• Costee 
• VIIVI 
• Goldielocks 
• Erika Vikman
