He had selective memory, like when he mentioned the year before "3 points from the French!" I think that's the most they've ever given us". However, they'd given us 12 the year before when we won with Love Shine a Light and also on many other occasions
This was the first ESC I remember in my lifetime, I was aged 6 and had no idea what I was watching but can recall gold coins being handed out at the end of such a long show. Say It Again + Take Me To Your Heaven were hits in UK which I remember hearing on the charts but didn't know both were in Eurovision til a few years later, here I am now... A massive dedicated Eurovision fan! The Late 90s were a fabulous era for the contest, ESC finally moved up with the times!
for example - this is the closest eurovision for a long long time when the year before it was between Israel and Malta with a tie before the last voting
SimsMoyal same with our Polish guy. That man insists on stating that Big 5 started Eurovision, which is not true. He also uses wrong names of some countries and always says Melodienfestival instead of Melodifestivalen. Looks like it’s a rule 🤣
The idea to invite all the contestants to sing and to dance with the winning song is so good. It symbolizes unity for all europeans. Hope they doing it in 2019!
Sweden definitely deserved this win, the song is beautiful and Charlotte has a wonderful voice! I only wish she'd sung it in Swedish, that version is so much better than the English one
@@o-b-1 it's doesn't really what attracted us - in 1979 Austria sang the song "Tonight in Jerusalem" and didn't get a single vote from us. more over we gave them 12 points in 1982 too - we are keeping it on the music level and i am proud of that.
When France is voting Terry says that nobody has null points, but Portugal does and it takes him a minute to notice! xD Then France gives Portugal 12 points and Terry bursts out laughing xD The timing is spectacular on that LOL
What's surprising is not only the fact that my country (France) got its highest number of points from Norway, it's also the fact Norway voted with the televote. It makes me wonder if France would have had a better placing if only the televote voted or a 50/50 vote. The final sequence with all the artists is heart-warming. It must have been a very jovial year. An Eurovision in Tel-Aviv would be amazing.
Why I am proud to be Israeli when I watch this: 1. the stage - for 1999 production - wow. very nice job. 2. we actually gave money! XD not points! coins of gold! haha what a jewish stereotype! it looks like a prince of persia video game. 3. we called all countries to join on stage to sing the winning song! 4. I like it when they say "good evening Jerusalem, this is ____ calling" 5. we got 5th place, nice job! next win I hope we host in Tel Aviv.
Your presenter was also great, he put all the spokespersons at ease, he was very friendly and not robotic at all. You gave a very good show in 1999. Kol ha'kavod!
I absoulutaly love the 1999 edition of eurovision... so colourful ... but not in that Gay way... So Golden and the songs were all so modern for this time ... I hope Israek wins again soon
Lior Haliva I disagree slightly tbh. 1) They made Eurovision have a gay stereotype which deters some people off and 2) They got rid of the language and live orchestra rule.
Apparently in order to escape relegation, Bosnia-Herzegovina would have had to get 141 points (more than 3rd place Germany). The average results rule was ridiculous.
Ce n'était pas le Concours Eurovision du Millénium mais le passage à l'An 2000 seulement. Le passage au nouveau Millénaire et au nouveau Siècle c'était fin 2000 passage en 2001 . Pour Miss France : Alain Delon a dit : Élodie Gossuin est la nouvelle Miss du nouveau Siècle et du nouveau Millénaire ❤❤❤
Sweden deserved the win. The song was a modern twist bringing that recognised famous ABBA-esque sound back in to the future at the time. As great as Iceland was, it was the other way around....a modern song with a very dated pop sound. I still liked it though. Special mention has to go to Belgium that year for their song which was very reminiscent of Enya. I loved it. Finally, I understand why Charlotte looked pissed off on stage whilst she awaited the trophy for winning. Dana clearly couldn’t let go of the spot light, and the moment that should have been Charlottes to enjoy, Dana used it for herself. Such an embarrassment.
34:25 remember Dana international's song that was responsible for making ESC 1999 possible well the host nation's spokesperson wrote the lyrics to the song diva
We would have won if musical discrimination wasn't still alive in the Balkan countries. Luckily they couldn't take away Olsen brothers victory in the following year.
Croatia is the only song from this year I have never forgotten, should have won. Very catchy!
marija magdalena won and nothing can change my mind
100% agree, I still listen to it so now and then.
I love how Charlotte walks to Selma ( Iceland ) so sweet
She is sexy❤❤
@@barneyriggs3890she is sexy
Agreed
I love how at the end of the show Charlotte proved once again how great a singer she is. Love it! 😁😊
Terry wogan: this is one of the closest Eurovisions in a long long time
1998: a tie before the last voting.
He had selective memory, like when he mentioned the year before "3 points from the French!" I think that's the most they've ever given us". However, they'd given us 12 the year before when we won with Love Shine a Light and also on many other occasions
I was so happy that she sang 'Tusen och en natt' at the end!
+Geweldig Schot The best EVER reprise of a winning song so much energy on the stage.

Why was "Take Me to your Heaven" even a hit? It sounded incredibly dated even then.
hi
If only they kept the orchestra. They could have updated it to be a live band instead.
This is the best way of finishing ESC event. It is touching
39:24 - 39:42 is pure gold.
For me,real winner is Croatia❤❤❤
Everyone is talking about Croatia, but I love Iceland the most!
Croatia should've won that year, "Marija Magdalena" was truly the best song, but Sweden and Iceland had fantastic songs too.
very agree
To me Lithuania was head and shoulders above the rest that year as a song, but the whole package might have seemed a bit boring
Sweden, Croatia and Germany were all great and would all have been deserving winners 😊😊
joking?
Oh, 1999. The year I became a Eurovision fan!
Croatia, Maria Magdalena The Best
Im Croatian
My god Colin Berry's votes are always such a pleasuer to hear...
So much charm
17:45 "nobody has nul points"
Portugal: *has nul points*
it is well known that Terry is not really connected to reality when he is commentating
for example - this is the closest eurovision for a long long time when the year before it was between Israel and Malta with a tie before the last voting
SimsMoyal in 1995 he said that it’s Russia’s debut, while Russia participated in 1994 and did well.
@@rafadydkiemmacha7543 you are right
Every year he makes a lot of mistakes
SimsMoyal same with our Polish guy. That man insists on stating that Big 5 started Eurovision, which is not true. He also uses wrong names of some countries and always says Melodienfestival instead of Melodifestivalen. Looks like it’s a rule 🤣
a wonderful show full of fun and colour hampered by flippant camera work. great postcards and a lovely ending

Germany getting 12 from Israel?!? What the hell HAHAHAHAHHAHHA HAHA I LOVE EUROVISION 😂😂😂
You never have listed to the song of Germany then
Same in 1982
They sang about Jerusalem, with some words in Hebrew
@@o-b-1 it's doesn't really what attracted us - in 1979 Austria sang the song "Tonight in Jerusalem" and didn't get a single vote from us.
more over we gave them 12 points in 1982 too - we are keeping it on the music level and i am proud of that.
@@randomturk454 It was one of my favorite that year. Germany was better than Sweden.
Croatia should win!
Yes, or Germany.
I like the design of the voting
When France is voting Terry says that nobody has null points, but Portugal does and it takes him a minute to notice! xD Then France gives Portugal 12 points and Terry bursts out laughing xD The timing is spectacular on that LOL
If your country wants to get out of nil point might as well get the big 12 points
It's one of the lesser known relationships in ESC. France and Portugal always exchange high marks!
What's surprising is not only the fact that my country (France) got its highest number of points from Norway, it's also the fact Norway voted with the televote. It makes me wonder if France would have had a better placing if only the televote voted or a 50/50 vote. The final sequence with all the artists is heart-warming.

Well, now there will be! lol
Fan vad härligt, min barndom! Var 6 år då, när det här sändes!
Sverige och Island ❤️
Charlotte is amazing as always! "Take Me To Your Heaven" is definitely carved in my heart among my favourite winners of 20th century :)
20 years ago tonight, wow!
I miss the times when amazing songs, sang by amazing artists won eurovision.
Croatia was R O B B E D!
Aleks Langdon : stop being an asshole
Thank you Europe ❤️
Varsågod och tack från Ukraina för underbar Charlotte! (was that said right? I'm only starting studying Swedish)
Great songcontest!! But Iceland should,ve won!
I just had to say that the Icelandic girl was so fricking cute!!!!
48:53 - 48:58 The most hillarious part. Poor Dana 😂
What a great song to finish the milennium
Dino Merlin is a big Balkan legend. Doris Dragović and Dino is the best with this eurovision
Oh, Terry - you and your neighbour-point-giving problems
Also LOL Terry "...you smarmy Swedish person!" xD

They actually might win in 2018
J J they did
Ireland started with 12 points and after that got almost null point. it was very surprising and comic.
Lithuania's voting was jury, you'll notice other countries that used juries in 1999 (Turkey, Ireland and Bosnia) voted quite randomly as well.
CROATIA IS THE BEST!!!!DORIS DRAGOVIC IS WINER💖💖💖GREETINGS FROM SERBIA.
Apparently in order to escape relegation, Bosnia-Herzegovina would have had to get 141 points (more than 3rd place Germany). The average results rule was ridiculous.

Yigal was so awful.
Germany got points from Israel? Wow •_•
Croatia should’ve won
36:50 RIP...for this beautiful woman😣

In 2013, she died of cancer
Can someone explain why they did the voting sometimes with the map snd sometimes they didn‘t
52:50 my emotional moment
I am still dead inside after this year... 😂
Iceland & U.K.
I wish Terry would stop being mean about Bosnia-Herzegovina. Their song was really different- and I mean that in a good way.
RIP Nirvana, the Maltese spokesperson. Died far too young! 😭😭😭
OMG that's so sad to hear! what happened?
East european country gives points to another east european country
Terry Wogan: they're neighbours

34:25 remember Dana international's song that was responsible for making ESC 1999 possible well the host nation's spokesperson wrote the lyrics to the song diva
I like British commentators
I laughed when he spanish spokeperson said ''great show by the way'' he almost forgot to say so.
Croatia and Iceland should been the top two
Sweden's song was so boring i've never liked the song even her song hero was better
But most of Europe disagreed, as the voting showed
I like it a lot, but I agree it is boring just by itself.
@ 48:54 an esc blooper
42:36 Look at the Norwegian contestant (2nd row in the middle) 🤣
I think Great Britain is sad that they only neighbour Ireland when it's Eurovision.
"As the night follows the day, Iceland will give Denmark twelve points and vice versa"

My conutry has been in eurovision for 50 years and we still don't get eurovision
Salvador Sobral did changed that stat
7:08 .....absolutly no surprise, especially no big surprise
Never heard of the word "irony"?
He even says "neighbor voting" a little later
@@TheCrew-rd9pp That is exactley what I wanted to say Irony Bosnia, Croatia and Slovenia giving themselves the big points
That Swedish song was dated
Song in Abba style
20 years later, Eurovision is returning to Israel! Congratulations to Netta on winning!
ola44445 : I prefer another Israel song to win
And we go back to Israel! Hopefully we (Hungary) will be there!
germany was the best
Germany is the True winner🇩🇪
Love from 🇹🇷
Uk getting 12th, the reason trying to cash in on the spice girls trend and it didnt work
Croatia should've won in my opinion.
No .. Sweden was the deserved winner that year
But hey .. its all about taste
Bravo Bosnia🇧🇦🇧🇦🇧🇦
We would have won if musical discrimination wasn't still alive in the Balkan countries. Luckily they couldn't take away Olsen brothers victory in the following year.
8:23 Cyprus's only points...
pasti tahun depan eurovision digelar di Israel setelah si ayam menang tahun ini
