Finland is fresh, unique, high energy and charisma. Sweden did good job. And that’s it. Good luck Finland!
It's not really that fresh, I have heard kind of similiar songs to cha cha cha before. Anyway Sweden has an amazing staging that we have not seen at Eurovision before. They also have the charisma and high energy too, especially that last part in song.
@@persberg7245 I personally prefer Finland🇫🇮 it’s crazy, it’s party! 🤣💚
@@persberg7245 well,Eurovision never had songs like Cha Cha Cha. Austria as well.
Loreen's song isn't unique,tbh. Euphoria is much better.
@@ivanmerkushev704 It does not have to be totally unique all the time, as long as it's good. Just like something being different does not mean it's good
@@persberg7245 but you just argued on uniqueness... Make up your mind
Nordic top3 = Whole thing top3 😅
Yup. I can't see anyone getting between Sweden, Finland and Norway. Ukraine might do it, but this will be the Top4 and nobody else.
@@andyx6827 i think austria might actually get above norway
Austria and France have more of a chance than Norway
Austria and France want to say hello
@@Eurojdkkwkd France won't even be Top15, lmao
Loreen is fantastic and she would be an amazing winner but my heart goes with Finland this year. UMK was such a success, they had many amazing options but still managed to choose the best unlike others countries in which the voters were more greedy, resulting the points being too splitted between the favourites and we experienced some bad surprises at the end ... They deserve that trophy so much.
Sweden also had quite good options, but Loreen was the best, because she was just too good.
@@persberg7245 no, only Loreen and Smash Into Pieces imo. and we are talking about 28 contestants. UMK, with only 7 contestants, had Käärijä, Kuumaa, Benjamin and Keira
@@ioi649 Well we didn't have the strongest contest this year, as we use to have. But It was still very good. And also you forgot Marcus and Martinus and Jon Henrik Fjällgren.
@@ioi649 JUST STOP. MELODIFESTIVALEN WAS GREAT THIS YEAR AND ALL 12 ACTS IN THE FINAL WERE GREAT. YOUR ACTING LIKE UMK WAS MILES BETTER JUST BECAUSE MELLO HAS BEEN DOMINATING FOR THE PAST FEW YEARS AND WILL CONTINUE TO DOMINATE IN THE FUTURE. ITS EMBARRASING. ALSO THE CONTEST WILL BE SEEN AS A JOKE IF HE WINS. LOREEN HAS PASSION AND TRUE MEANING AND IS SO CLOSE TO GETTING THE RECOGNITION SHE DESERVES IF SHE WINS 2023 BUT YOU WOULD RATHER SOMEONE WEARING A GREEN MUSCLE SUIT IN A BOXING ARENA SCREAMING CHA CHA CHA WINS OVER HER. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOUR MIND. LOREEN WOULD BE SUCH A GOOD WINNER COMPARED TO THE DIFFERENT WINNERS OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS. I JUST DONT SEE HOW U COULD WANT HIM TO WIN WHEN YOU CAN SEE LOREEN OVERFLOWING WITH EMOTION IN HER PERFORMANCE. IT DOESNT MAKE SENSE. 😢 I HOPE LOREEN WINS
@@realStarTom wow. just relax, it's not that deep. and speak better tho.
Käärijä FTW! His charisma and uniqueness are just out of this world. Such a likeble dude as well. He deserves to win the whole thing 🎉🎉🎉
LorQueen will win though. The first woman to win Eurovision twice. 🌸💖
🇫🇮 Käärijä 💚:
✅️ Native language
✅️ Iconic singer
✅️ Banger song
Käärijä is so close to win, all stars are just in place for him🇫🇮 ❤️
When the stars align, he'll be there 😊😅
Sadly it looks like juries will massively favour Sweden while Finland might struggle quite a bit. I believe Finland will win the televote but the discrepancy between juries and televote might cost them the win...SMH!
Juries be like: am I a joke to you?
lol no they're not
😒
4me is Finland, I love finnish enteries especially rock ones hh🤘, its gonna be between Finland, Sweden and Austria I think so heh
💚Finland is my best Nordic entry at Eurovision this year, just love Käärijä song Cha Cha Cha. Iceland is last in my inspection the staging and the singer action on stages look bad to me!
100% team Finland!
Yes, Loreen's family are berber/amazighs from Morocco, and Tattoo has so many elements from that. As I look at it, she is "lifting the sky" like the god Atlas, that according to mythology stood in Morocco, the Atlas Mountains. Her stance when lifting the sky look a bit like the letter that symbolizes the amazigh people: ⵣ. She has rocks from this region on her nails, there are a lot of cultural symbolism here.
While "Euphoria" was like Sweden, dark, cold, snowy, like moonlight, "Tattoo" is warm, sandy, like sunrise in Morocco, like two parts of her and they're like parts of the same they both have this like ethereal thread between them, like they're part of the same story, or like two places in the same mystical universe that you just want to hear the next chapter of.
So she's amazigh... but she's also amazing! I'm so happy to hear that you love this song as much as I do! It's really something else, I was moved to tears first time I saw this performance.
THE GREAT EFFORT OF THE NORDICS THIS YEAR🤤🤤🤤
My too 3 is
Sweden
Norway
Iceland
I have to admit that Loreen is getting a bit boring already, it was good, but now I can't listen that anymore.. 😅 Team Finland ✌
Stop overlisten to it man
I love your chemistry together, you always make it so entertaining, basically the perfect duo
Finland for the win 💚🇫🇮
Finland is number one.💙💙💙❤❤❤and Käärijä cha cha cha
Team 🇫🇮 go Kaarija 🤍
Finland, Finland, Finland, Finland, Finland. That's my TOP FIVE. It's party!! 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤😂😂😂
I could predict very easily they would both put Norway 3rd but I'm hoping it can be elevated with better staging
1. Finland
2. Norway
3. Sweden
4. Denmark
5. Iceland
Yes, this is the definitive ranking.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yesss 👏🏼 even if I don’t really know why we’re out here trynna drag Denmark in to the conversation. I think it’s obvious they’ve exited the chat a while ago 😅
It is so hard choose one. I love Norway, Finland and Sweden
It would be an absolute dream to bring ESC back to Finland. We would have absolutely multiple great cities where we could host the competition in. WHile televoting could help us to win I just keep having doubts that the Juries will back us up on this one and then Sweden takes it all which is fine as well. I just feel like our effort in esc has just increasingly developed over the past few years and UMK has been amazing so winning especially this year would be so rewarding.
Loreen is okay, nothing new, but Kaari's performance is such a refreshing change for Eurovision that he definitely deserves to win.
Love the way you tease each other...
🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪
Finland❤️😍
7:10 You speak out of my soul here. So many national finals feel so overloaded with meh-acts. Better less acts (I would say max. 10) but then supporting them 100%
Go Sweden 🇸🇪 & Finland 🇫🇮 🎉
Pleasantly surprised to see Deban has Iceland in number 2! And I agree that the visuals and wardrobe need improving. I am waiting so impatiently dear Wiwibloggs for your reaction videos for Iceland and the other two or three countries you still haven't reacted to ❤
Sweden,Finland,Norway,Serbia,Moldova
Kinda Eurovision top 3
I know we’re probably not going to win this year but I hope Norway gets a good running order in the final. We were early in last year’s final, we’re early in our semi, I feel like we deserve a later running order at this point!
Yeah, I could guess EBU would put Sweden in a very good running order along with Norway and Finland cause they are the favorites!
If I was Norwegian I wouldn't give up on the win. Queen of Kings has massive mainstream appeal and will do extremely well in televote and juries will appreciate it too. She has a chance, albeit a slim one.
If she picks first half they will put her as the opener tho
@@mrmr4622 That would be kinda harsh considering she's already opening the semi
Loved this video! Deban and William have such a great energy together!
For me:
5) Denmark
4) Norway
3) Iceland
2) Sweden
1) Finland
Norway opens semi 1 . She's not going to open the final too.
1 Finland 🇫🇮
2 Iceland 🇮🇸
3 Norway 🇳🇴
4 Sweden 🇸🇪
5 Denmark 🇩🇰
it's always equally sweet to hear you guys speak your swedish, I appreciate my language being used by you both haha
I love these videos I love Deban & William chemistry!!! Gotta love these videos💖
is this the last year we see William and Debian in the same room
Do we already know something about swedish staging?
God, I love you two!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
Denmark was mentioned once. Says it all
Cause you're in majority and introverted people are minority..... don't f*** care what bubble fandom say... Denmark is one of my favourite ones and I'm so upset about this Eurovision fandom cause you think you're better ones according to your music taste... I'm sure Reiley will make it big no matter the results of Eurovision...... I've loved it since the first time listening to it.
@@yinloveyang Nobody asked
The editing in this video cracks me up 🤣
The only ”problem” with Loreen is that she needs to change her performance for the Eurovision. What she will change and how different it will be is still unknown but I’m afraid that it will be for the worse becuase her previous performance basically was perfect. As you say, everything Loreen does on that stage is natural and organic so I’m sure that she will have a great performance either way. As a swede I of course want her to win, but if she doesn’t I’m hoping that Finland wins it
I got a protesting war/supporting Ukraine vibe from Iceland's staging. De-emphasizing herself but focusing on the sunflowers (I've seen this as a symbol for Ukraine) with a sky/light blue blocky suit to help her blend in to the background
1. Finland and then nothing, I don't like Nordic entries usually, too soulless and calculated for my taste, like their mentality more or less. Iceland and Denmark I kinda like.
I thought I was the only one that prefers Denmark over some of the other Nordics. But yeah, Finland definitely is #1
I thought you woulda appreciated us (Finland) usually sending a lot of shitty entries as well then 😅 this years entry slapping is insane to most of us too 🎉
Ouch 😂
It took time to like Finland but after that it was serving❤
Sweden for the win!!! She is another level ❤ Love you guys reacting 🤗
1. Norway 👑
Pinterest hahahha I can’t w Deban! Or well I very much can!!! Here for this energy
What is the secret for your thick hair? Vitamins, hair products, supplements?
Deep hydration.
@@jimmey123XD excellent!
Minoxidil 😊
Koja li je tajna zdrave kose William Lee Adams?
hahahaha they killed it❤❤
she going hard on him 😂😂😂
Great watching you girls!!! As a swede I don't mind if any of them takes the throphy home (well not Denmark and Island ofc) though it would be epic for us (and the whole competition) if Loreen manage to get another win. Johnny Logan has been left alone on his mountain for...what is it now... half a lifetime. He needs company. Also giving courage for other returning artist.
Is that Jessica Andersson on the wall behind😅?
Yes, it's Jessica Andersson in her Melodifestivalen 2015 outfit.
("Can't Hurt Me Now")
Not the Romania shade 😭😭
I actually think D.G.T. is a great song
YES 👏🏻 SWEDEN 🇸🇪
Norway is my number one.
1. Finland 🇫🇮
2. Norway 🇳🇴
3. Iceland 🇮🇸
4. Denmark 🇩🇰
5. Sweden 🇸🇪
Sorry, not sorry for my number five. It's boring, predictable and calculated.
If it's boring how come it has 43 million streams and charting in several countries. Clearly a lot of people like it and the song along with performance is even more amazing. Maybey you're from Finland.
cope
lol hater
@@persberg7245 Just because many people love it, doesn't mean others can't find it boring. Personally, I don't think it is boring, it's my #2 among the Nordics, but I can see how other people would think it is boring.
@@persberg7245 clearly, all the sheep are following the trend, you have your own mind, use it to have a different opinion than all the ones in this herd. Sweden 's song is not winner just because other people are brainwashed by influencers putting her on top of the board. P.s maybe you are from Sweeden too
Loreen will win goooo❤❤❤
She Queen of the kings🇳🇴👑
Eesti can not in to Nordics 😂
unpopular opinion coming 😜
1. Finland
2. Denmark
3. Iceland
4. Norway
5. Sweden
Have you seen this music video of Ukrainian singer Mika Newton!?!?! Someone got inspired from one part of her song. 😊
Times has changed... Both Norway and Sweden are the past.
My Top Three :
1 ) Tattoo
2 ) Breaking My Heart
3 ) Cha Cha Cha
Sweden is my number one. I is a great song. Prefer Euphoria. Finland has top quality song but I feel the juries will hurt them. Something tells me that the juries will come out on top over the televote this year. We have not had that since 2015.
The Winner is... 🇨🇦❤😊
How many red bulls did you guys have before filming this? 😂
Also Reilley was lucky to escape a panning given he got no love at all haha 🇩🇰
😜👎 I've seen a lot of people's comments say something different.
Heres my ranking of the Nordics:
1. Sweden 💅
2. Finland 💃💃💃
3. Iceland 💪
4. Norway 👑
5. Denmark 💔
The correct ranking
I'd switch Norway and Denmark 😶
My number 1 is Sweden, i wish Loreen all the luck! ♥
NORWAY!!! 👑
SWEEEEEEEDEN!
Love Sweden so much!!!!
Norway.
cyprus is the winner. poland yes. i like andrew from cyprus
Iceland
Finland
Denmark
1 - Sweden 💗💗💗
2 - Finland 💥💥💥
3 - Norway 💅💅💅
1. Finland
2. Iceland
3. Denmark
4. Norway
5. Sweden
Let's be honest. If we speak tracks in studio version... Iceland and Denmark are far more current than Norway and Sweden which are terribly cliche and outdated
Finlande 10/10
Norway 8/10
Sweden 4/10
Let's not forget this is a SONG contest, not a show contest, or a singing contest. Tattoo is not original or groundbreaking. Loreen is an incredible performer, but that's where it ends. There are objectively far better songs in 2023.
Singing is a very important criteria in a song contest, when you rate a song to be either good or bad. Things don't have to be original all the time, as long as it's good It can win. The song being just different does not mean its good
I can't believe that so many Nordic countries will do good this year. I mean Sweden will do good whatever they send since Juries give them Abba legacy points but hopefully Norway and Finland get to close to top 3!!
Why can't they talk normal Sweden there fave shock horror im supeised lol.
Easily:.
1. Sweden
2. Norway
3. Finland
Let face the facts Sweden is the msot successful country in eurovision history because they know how to pick their artist they can be hugh with the televote or juries or both in this year
Not a single mention of Denmark says it all, Denmark is terrible
ehmm, ehhmmm.. I'm here and not leaving 😂 stop the silly hatred.
1= Norway
2= Finland
3= Sweden
Финская песня ге победная, детская
Sweden will win
Finland and Norway will finish Top 10
Denmark and Iceland will NQ
"Sweden will win"
Käärijä: Hold my Pina Colada 🍹
1 norway
2 sweden
3 iceland
4 denmark
5 finland
Loreen 😍
“Tattoo” is just meh… 🥱
Out of context: Why there isn't Crimes of ESC 2023 yet? Did you state the reason somewhere why you have not handled the topic? It is just agony not to see your opinions about the crimes of the latest edition of the contest 🥲
