Kuin silloin ennen (English translation: "Like In Those Times") was the Finnish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1969, performed in Finnish by Jarkko & Laura.
The song was performed sixteenth on the night (following Portugal's Simone de Oliveira with Desfolhada Portuguesa). At the close of voting, it had received 6 points, placing 12th in a field of 16.

The song is a love duet, with the singers declaring that seeing each other reminds them of "those times" when life was good.

It was succeeded as Finnish representative at the 1971 Contest (Finland having been one of the countries to opt out of the 1970 Contest due to the unusual result) by Markku Aro & Koivistolaiset with Tie Uuteen Päivään.
