#Eurovision2022 - Zábava
The thing about Moldova is - the song has such a distinct balkan/slavic folk sound to it, where I live (Croatia) you hear this kind of music at almost every wedding, festival, night club, any kind of festive occasion really. And I think I speak for every other balkan person out there when I say that this song made me immediatelly want to get up out of my seat and start dancing kolo (a folk dance). It's just something about that distinct accordion (harmonika to us) sound that speaks to us.
I think this is also a key argument when people talk about political voting - sometimes it's just that certain places vibe with a certain sound because it's familiar to them. Must play a part in bloc voting as much as the politics does
It's not only the Balkans though, in many Mediterranean countries and even some nordic ones, this type of violin/accordeon-driven folk music is also really present so I'm actually not surprised so many countries resonated it with it at all !
I knew it was going to be incredible success or total flop, I don’t like that kind of music although I did grow up with it, I hoped it would flop but not surprised it didn’t
You’re comment was pleasant to read. It’s so noticeable (and pleasurable) when a comment is clear and concise, and has correct grammar and punctuation. Thank you…
@@JRandaII thanks! I am an English teacher after all haha
I speak Italian and it's quite obvious at times that the script was mistranslated because some jokes (that would have been successful in Italian as a play on words) didn't translate into English at aaaaall
Italian here, and holy shit our humor is frustratingly hard to translate, we're always the awkward unorganized grandpas trying to be hip whenever we host.
@@no-yg3bj gesù cristo hai messo a parole esattamente quello che pensavo mentre guardavo ESC-
Era esattamente how do you do, fellow kids
Meno male che ci sono stati i medley di Mika e di Laura Pausini, altrimenti mi sarei sparata alle palle che non ho quando c’era cattelan col green screen
@@oddda5956 fraaaa il medley di Mika è stato il momento clou dell'intero show
@@no-yg3bj hahahahaha vi apprezzo io
A shame because listening to some of the way they interacted during the rehearsals, they were really funny together when it wasn't so tightly scripted :(
I will NEVER agree that Running Scared won…
same. an actual shit show of a song. Germany, Denmark or Sweden were miles better in quality
I read somewhere that probably some shit voting happened when Azerbaijan won. Are there any serious speculations about it or is it just no one believing this song won?
Azerbaijan bought that victory. So glad their bribery were exposed in 2014 and now they barely qualify unless the juries rescues them. They always send MelFest reject and doesn't even trust their own Azeri composers to send songs in Eurovision.
@@thanospi7663 They bribe juries. That was the speculation. One example of this is Malta giving them 12 points from 2009-2013 but suddenly stopped giving them points in 2014 when it was revealed in the media that they were bribing juries and voters to vote for them. I guess we will never know the truth but it was very suspicious.
Honestly if Azerbaijan cheat one more time they should just take the win off them.
Honestly did not realise all that trouble was going on with the giant mechanical sun during performances. By the time the show started though, i was on my second bottle of wine. 😅
Olympia clearly won the costume contest for a reason this is STUNNING
Right?? She looks INCREDIBLE
I loved France's song before it started just for the fact it was in Breton, a traditional dialect of the Brittany region. I've seen so many road signs over there in Breton so it was nice to hear a traditional language on an international stage.
I think a UK equivalent would be a song in Welsh or Scottish Gaelic.
Breton's UK equivalent is Welsh or Cornish, yep!
I was lucky enough to be at Eurovision this year. I went to the last three shows- Jury Show, Family Show and Grand Final- and Moldova were the highlight every time. The arena just erupted every time they took the stage, and I'm sure those watching in their living rooms experienced the same thing. Placement played a big part for them, as they were the wake up call everyone needed after some very dreary entries. I just always love the party song that gets everyone dancing, and I wish La Venda had been shown as much love a few years back.
Moldova were a fantastic group - you could feel the energy through the TV - you could tell they were well seasoned artists who just loved their country, their culture and music
It's awesome to know that the arena was having as much of a blast with modlova as i did in my living room, they were truly the bombastic light that was needed this year
Absolutely loved Moldova!
Aw, this video marks an anniversary for me...I found you both a year ago, when your last ESC video went up. I came for the ESC content and stayed because you're both amazing. Thanks for all the joy ladies!
same!! And how very glad I did!
Omg! Same.
Moldova did more than bring the party. They brought decades of experience playing to crowds and delivering music. You ever watch an old drag queen, one who's been perfecting her craft in front of audiences since her 20's, walk out on stage and make that entire room come alive? No outfit, no prop, no set piece can compare to the time spent mastering a craft in front of audiences. That's why Moldova slayed.
I personally think france was one of those songs that doesn't translate well to a live performance. It's in that camp of "the studio cut's an absolute banger but it's been so heavily produced it'll never live up to the hype live" i.e. France, Austria, Albania etc.
my love for llamame reached new heights with how much the stadium was singing along, so i was devastated when romania only got 18 or whatever. i'll be listening and dancing to that song all summer!
On italy being shoddy: the eurovision village was terribly organised. I was in Turin and we arrived 3 hours early and there were thousands of people outside the gates not knowing what was going on. Turns out the park was at full capacity and no one knew because the only way they told people was via a big sign 100 metres back in italian. I had friends inside and apparently they ran out of water in there before the show even started.
Here's the thing with Moldova (and here's essentially what I think about Moldova every year). On paper, and in studio, it's a pretty awful song. But on the night somehow it was a crazy drunken fever dream that you want to be over immediately but also simultaneously never really want to end. Alcohol-infused chaos is Moldova's entire Eurovizh aesthetic and we love to hate to hate to love to love it.
There's also a cultural difference. The folk music element doesn't tend to go down as well in the UK.
@@pajamaparty01 Though it did very well with the UK televote.
@@eurovizusayay3591 Everyone in the UK was so delighted we sent something decent for once, it was one giant party 😂 so we were all about the upbeat songs
I cant help but smile and clap along when I hear that song! It's just so fun
Apparently Serbia (or anybody) wasn't allowed to have subtitles for their whole song, so they had to pick and choose which lines to translate. Explains why the message didn't come across as well as it could have but daaaammmmn did I love it anyway
This is a stupid rule, if they allowed for subtitles maybe more countries would sing their song in their own language. After all, isn't diversity what Eurovision should be about?
@@sundaydriver15 They didn't want one country to have advantages over others as it happened in 90es when 5 English songs won. That's why they allowed to sing in any language you want.
has that always been a rule? if so did Italy technically violate it in 2018
@@saskiamckenna2925 EBU changes rules every year
Providing subtitles is every national broadcaster's responsibility. In many countries you can opt for your native language subtitles as Closed Captions for Eurovision. In Finland, for example, people usually have either Finnish or Swedish subtitles turned on on their tv device, and the captions automatically roll during the songs and scripted lines of the hosts if you don't manually turn them off from the tv settings. Although TV-channels are required to provide captions to non-finnish/non-swedish speaking shows as well as finnish for swedish shows and swedish for finnish, it doesn't directly apply to music and song lyrics, but people have wished to have access to that too so the translations are provided. A lot of people watch the shows subs on even though they could understand the majority of the show, not only to understand the non-english songs better, but it's also a kind of added entertainment factor because the song translations are usually purposely silly and hyperbolic here. Sort of a national inside joke.
It would be pretty awfull if the whole screen was half filled with text, both english and your own language. If your country doesn't provide subtitles, go and pressure them to do something about it. EBU itself has prioritized the country's performance to be completely visible, which is why we no longer have voting information visible during the whole of the songs, only the running order placement and the performing country's name are visible as small watermarks in the corner of the screen. I bet this is also why there are no open captions on top of the show's broadcast that you can't choose to turn off from your own settings. It would also only favour fluent english speakers and not help anybody who's enlish isn't as good. I can't imagine anybody actually wanting that.
That being said the ESC youtube channel providing subtitles for a lot of individual songs official videos this year is awesome. I'm sure each country has been asked for english subtitles when they've sent the final official videos to the organizers. A couple songs didn't have subtitles, which is why I'm guessing either they haven't received any from the country's broadcaster or maybe some subtitles aren't ready yet.
nova being a cornelia stan makes so much sense in my brain… as a cornelia stan
I'm American and I got into Eurovision this year entirely because of you two.
what i love about Eurovision is how it brings nations together. After Serbia performed the way twitter exploded in whole region was amazing. the way ppl set aside bloody history and be so proud some1 from our region send actual great quality performance art piece that spoke to every1 so fiercely, rather than what we used to, like turbo folk ( Moldavia is kinda civilized turbo folk, if u r not familiar, u have to research that musical phenomena). the way Eurovision makes me feel like a citizen of planet Earth, and feel seen and represented like nothing else is the reason i will always watch it
and the fact that every time i have urge to learn another language cuz of songs, like Icelandic and Dutch, and the fact that i found out stories behind their song brings so much life joy to me
that's very beautifully said, I agree!
I'm not really a Mahmood and Blanco fan, but I feel like the only reasonable explanation for two otherwise totally acceptable singers to be THAT off pitch is technical difficulties. The music at these events is LOUD, it's easy to forget about that when watching from home, and if the artists can't hear themselves properly in their earpiece it's unlikely they'll deliver a good performance. It's really funny to me that in every comment section talking about their performance Blanco seems to be getting a whole bunch of shit when it is Mahmood's vocals fucking it up. What is throwing Blanco off, is that he can probably actually hear that they're very off. I don't think the dissonant vocal spaghetti was their fault, but I have some questions about those chimpanzee dance moves. Very different vibe from Mahmood just standing there like a very regal statue. Choices.
ive lived my entire life just to see lymp as verka. this is the peak of existing right here i could die happy tomorrow
I literally screamed "YES". I LOVE Eurovision and I love you two so much. You bring me so much joy in the hardest times of my life. Keep being you❤🏳️🌈❤
See I also screamed YES because a new Novympia video, but I honestly know nothing about Eurovision except Conchita Wurst was involved once I think. But I’m just gonna watch and enjoy this treat starring our GIRLS!
Commentary about Serbia's subtitle. Konstrakta said that they were not allowed to put all of the lyrics on the screen. They would definitely put all of it if they were allowed she said. The subtitles were selected that way because they still want to give a sense of curiosity to the viewers, making them more engaged to the performance.
I live for this verka serolympia moment.
Thank your for your support. It was very hard to see my country finish so low despite having such a different and great song, guess we're good to send ballads with eiffel tower background for the next decade
Can we have Novympia represent the UK next year. Sam Ryder showed us that passion is what helps you do well at Eurovision and I don’t think there’s anyone more passionate about Eurovision than Nova and Olympia 💖
would love to see you review older years of Eurovision and what you were thinkings the time of watching it and your thoughts now !
glad to see support of 🇱🇹MONIKA LIUGEND🇱🇹
Fcking love her so much. What an icon.
I think Portugal stood out from most of the other slower ballads because it was a song about longing and loss. And after all we've experienced these last couple years it's unsurprising that a song like that would connect with many people.
It also had the most intimate staging, and was the first slow song after two upbeat ones. Even though they performed 3rd which can be a bad position to perform in, I think it did them a favour as people tend to be more ‘alert’ at the start and end of Eurovision.
YES LOOOOOVE Maro! And all the kids now young folks, who trained under Jone Tremorro ❤️
Glad to see it being talked about. ;) Named my daughter after one of his proteges :3
Nova - Dami would be honored. Olympia - the hair and eye are giving the most Roxxxy Andrews half-sister I’ve seen yet.
You two dames of you tube know entertainment on an level beyond everything. Amazing how you always know to make me scream out loud from laughter. *and thats a higher praise than all the oscars, emmies, baftas and tonies in the world.
As someone who doesn't watch/care about Eurovision, any moment the Lithuania song came on during your vids it got stuck in my head for hours (in a good way). When I worked the Eurovision watch party my bar hosted the other day it was the only song I recognized when it came on. I must not be representative of the Eurovision demographic at all because that's the best song I've heard on it by far I my opinion.
Olympia paying tribute to the greatest eurovision entry of all time, AND looking this good doing it, is giving me EVERYTHING I need and more 🙌
These videos has been the highlight of the Eurovision season for me for 2 years now, now that it's out I can finally rest and prepare for 2023
Olympia looks divine. Like I can't-
Diodato’s semi-final interval performance was a standout for me - beautiful song with lots of meaning due to lockdown etc., fantastically staged and choreographed and he is a great singer. Justice for our wee Brooke! 🇮🇪
Omg Olympia and nova look INCREDIBLE!!!
Well, if Monika Liu and the girl from the Netherlands priviledged and promoted their own language, Moldova did that for the Romanian/Moldovan language. Good for them. Romania as much as I loved it sang in English and Spanish.
obsessed with both of your looks as always
I do wanna say the makeup has improved so much in 2 years! You both look so refined and gorge!!!
This video randomly popped up and I just remembered how STUNNING our Gurls looked in this video.
Me shook at the Mankind reference. Mick Foley's dad was my elementary school gym teacher
No WAY
@@Novympia one of the very few fun facts about growing up on Long Island
I havent watched the video yet but I already know this is what I have been waiting for. Thanks you
Commented 3 days ago on your last video how I started to watch Eurovision becuse of you... cant wait to watch this
I've saved the video of Blanco announcing his presence (that is the kindest way I can think of phrasing that) and it makes me laugh every time. The boy is 19 and became popular during the pandemic. I'm assuming his nerves/inexperience got to him.
Do you mean when he trudged across stage like the Loch Ness monster? I thought he was going to hit Mahmood with a water balloon.
Nerves? That wasn't his first time on stage or something.
Oh my mr. Floppers you both look lovely! Been so excited for this vid, thank you ❤
I saw Olympia in Verka Serduchka Drag - i can die in peace now.
Aww ive been waiting for this you ABSOLUTE GORGEOUS GIRLS 🙌👍💖
I have been waiting for this !
Gasping at how gorgeous you both look! Both look so pretty with these makeup style
I was afraid there wasn't going to be a video, so glad it's here
This is literally my favourite novympia video of all time
I'M JEALOUS OF HOW GOOD DANIEL'S BIRTHDAY SHOUTOUT IS!!!
I loved Ukraine. I thought the staging, styling and dancing were all really cool. I've bought a fluffy pink bucket hat in their honour! The context of the war made the song hit harder for sure but I think I would like it either way. One of the musicians actually performed with Go_A last year. I have also been listening to their back catalogue and watching some of their music videos and I think they're really interesting and unique and I am excited to see more from them. I think rap just isn't everyone's cup of tea so some people can't fathom how it did well.
Good lord, the makeup on you both is stunning!
This is the only way I've consumed anything about Eurovision (I'm American) and I had no idea there was so much drama involved! I love it!!
OK but my personal highlight of this year has definitely been Mika. He performed that shit so well
You have the funniest and engaging Eurovision aftermath review on CZcams. Would love it if you manage to get yourselves a press pass for next year’s event, so we can see more Eurovision videos in future!
Your looks and hair in this vid look really good dolls, I live for it!!✨💅💯
Olympia's eye makeup and wig color are gorgeous, also Love Nova in a dark wig, lovely! XO
Nova dark hair really suits you! Your blue eyes really pop and looks great with your facial features.
I'm Swedish and haven't watched the ESC in years and years and years, but I still enjoy hearing you talk about it, lol. Considering all the crap that's been going on I'm really happy for the Ukraine and the UK, couldn't have wished for a more deserving top 2.
Latvia were screwed because broadcasters did not want to hear 'pussy' sang by the crowd live on TV on Saturday night. They wouldn't have been able to independently bleep it because they'd be punished for censoring performances at Eurovision.
That doesn't explain why more televotes didn't come in for them, Latvia's jury score was higher than their televote score
@@jazzycat8917 because producers stuck them in second, the deathslot, knowing that second place in the running order will limit the televoting.
Also the greek jury gave Azerbaijan 12 points which was so confusing... I mean last year I would understand it.
You both look so damn good!
Do you think Olympia won the best dressed competition? She’s not mentioned it 🤔
I was so upset this didn't come out right after eurovision so I could check out your opinions! 🤣 Thank you for the video. You both look gorgeous.❤
I love this with my whole heart
yessssssssssssss!!!!! iv honestly binged watched all your videos over the past week, I'm honestly in love with you two and your content :D keep up the awesome vids
Olympia!!! I love that lilac blue hair it suits you
Love your video's you both make me laugh so much x
NOT Olympia dressing as Verka 🤣 Hilarious x
Olympia looks PHENOMENAL
I thought this video was so incredibly dull and just full of niceness. Just two nice, you know just nice, very nice queens you know. Love you both, from Estonia!
Love that hair on Nova!
You played that ‘Embers’ clip so many times it’s now stuck in my head like some hideous ear 👂 worm 🪱 argh! Loved the video so entertaining as always
I never liked the UK song but Sam did such a fantastic performance. 2nd place is so amazing!!! Didn't even need a win, he did the UK proud and he seemed so lovely in his interviews. I'm happy with Ukraine winning. Doesn't matter if it wasn't the best song. It was so nice to see Europe show solidarity in such troubling times.
That hair looks gorgeous on you Olympia. I know you usually go for bigger hair but you can absolutely pull off flatter hair like this.
we finally had Eurovision in the US to watch, but could not vote. When our family lived in Europe the girls and I were glued to the set, voting, and also learned the lyrics to "Vampires are Alive" and sung them in public whenever possible.
You both look so beautiful!
I saw a a clip of Slo Mo on twitter. I thought Chanel was so fierce. The vocals, the chereo, everything. I loved it.
Nova looks amazing
Holy shit
I laughed WAYYY to loud on that Nadine Coyle reference when talking about no. 11 xD
Im sorry but that sun was such a disaster, how did they not figure out that it won’t work before the first semi?? Worst staging in ages
You both look amazing here
So excited for this video gals! “I’ve prepared a little speech” bc I have *thoughts*.
I was gooped and gagged over France. I think the concentration of votes at the top left a lot of the right side with so little points remaining to distribute maybe? But it was great to see the Big 5 (aside from Germany) step up for once. Italy was just sad - they were both clearly exhausted from touring, hadn’t seen each other in three months for any rehearsals and the staging was non-existent.
Switzerland was 100% a vindication, as was Azerbaijan - if it’s only the jury vote (however shady) that gets you into the final then you are *going* to flop.
Moldova was iconic and in a year with *far* too many ballads it was a welcome relief and quintessential Eurovision.
Monika Liu is the president of Europe and should be respected as such. As a member of the Konstraktavists, our great mother was literally perfect.
Chanel was unbelievable. That was one of the greatest performances in Eurovision history, it was like a Super Bowl Halftime show.
Ireland, Albania, Latvia and San Marino were ROBBED. You may not have loved every one but I think we can all agree that having them over Belgium (fine song, terrible performance), Switzerland (y’all went from Gjon’s Tears to THIS!?), Azerbaijan (shady) and Finland (literally why) would have made an infinitely better Final.
In closing, I’m thrilled that Ukraine won. The song was classic, iconic Ukraine and they deserved every vote.
Thank you for coming to my TEDtalk, I will not be taking questions about the UK.
You both look great
On the verve of wetting myself with laughter again 😂😂
YESSSSSS i'm so happy, I posted on twitter i was waiting for this and i was crying laughing when u retweeted it!! WORTH THE WAIT XXXXXXX
Loving your looks ladies...
Why haven't I seen you before ? You are so hilarious 😂 Love the video, I personally loved the stage on paper but i ended up hating it in real life, such a shame the sun didn't work and i've also noticed the floor looked so dirty but we enjoyed Eurovision anyway 😅, And i agree with you, i don't get the hype over Moldova, i would've loved Latvia qualifying instead and Ireland over Belgium in semi 2 . Greetings from Morocco ❤️
We can all agree Azerbaijan winning in 2011 was the shitter of all shitters... But Fade to Black, my God that final high note, we cannot sit here & deny the guy can S I N G! I get chills from that live performance.
As an American I am so out of the loop on Eurovision, and really appreciate your insight and commentary. 🥰
Love you ladies and yes I've been wondering where the video was XD
I actually voted for Azerbaijan, not knowing about the vote fixing of the semi. 🤯
I really liked the song and assumed it would do well 😞
Loved the review! I will say I did not get Sweden's green circle but she was great.
Wow Olympia looks so glam ! It’s a great look. Nova looks so much like Cher … I really like that look too 💜
Thanks for the Eurovision content this year. 1 year since I found your channel, and I stuck around after Eurovision was over, thank you!
Honestly, Moldova, UK and Serbia doing well is exactly why you don't judge a song based off its studio version alone. I knew Serbia would come at least Top 10 off the National Final performance alone, and after Israel Calling I put a bet on Serbia coming T10. I'm not going to listen to it on Spotify, but the performance itself was a work of art. UK was a 7/10 studio song that was 10/10 live because of Sam and his vocals/personality. And Moldova sent a party/knees-up song, it wasn't too much of a surprise to me but then it also got a plum spot in the running order after a long ballad lull.
France doing badly was running order IMO, it was the closest song to Stefania, and also came directly before Italy, Spain and Ukraine.
Australia... live, it was as boring to casual fans as Switzerland or Belgium or Azerbaijan. Sorry. I'm gutted for Sheldon (and I'm gutted for Marius tbh) but there was just too many ballads this year, it's lucky Sam Ryder brought an electric guitar with him.
YAAAS! So happy to see you make this video.
THE INTRO THE JUXTAPOSITION OF NOVA AND LYMP I CANT 😂😂
Verka was robbed, but this is the first year that I've felt I can forgive Serbia for it, 'cause Konstrakta was fucking epic. .
I have never once watched Eurovision, but I'll watch every single one of your videos on the subject! 😂😂😂
15:17 THANK U, this is exactly why i love u girls.
Couldn't care less about swirzerland and his NFTs. I agree with Nova about everything considering the stage and the production, this year was so shit
