I just couldn't help but love this crazy giant fluffy fur coated polar bear with angel wings, TIX 😆 And Go-A was just fire ... If it was up to me Måneskin would have shared the trophy with Go-A. It's worth to look into their other stuff as well. 😍
@@augustrnning7823 yeah but Ulveham was better, it had both cultural elements and rock plus it was Norway's first entry in Norwegian since 2006 so it should've been rewarded
@@lostmindCroatia oh i don’t disagree, you’re absolutely right I am Norwegian, and the measage of the song was also great. Unfortunately, being the worse out if the two rock-entries this year, there was no chance we’d do well… I also have a feeling that the televotes were kinda skewed this year because of Israels participation… but thia is another can of worms im not gonna answer today
@@augustrnning7823ye the same voting cursed happened to Benjamin(Hoida Mut) in the 2023 finnish selection. Kaarija got so much of the televote and since they are both party songs the other votes didnt go to Benjamin
I know, on a technical level it's not the best song and I really wish TIX would have performed it in norwegian, but as someone who still struggles with the believe that because of my own (mental) issues I don't deserve the good things and people in my life, Fallen Angel touches me in a way very, very few other songs do. The moment where he puts off the glasses will never not get me like hell. Also even though the whole Russia-situation was und will continue to be messy for at least the next few years, a small condolence is that they left with a banger of a song, Russian Woman is the best woman power-song in the history of ESC fight me
I actually loved the Irish entry, I just wish they would have checked that she could actually sing while being in movement but I like the idea of the staging! I still like the Norwegian entry but I'm still bitter he switched it to English for the final of MGP and ESC, I felt like the Norwegian version had more emotion
Love this!! I would totally love to see you make those videos on other shows from the last decade too! (And not from last decade but Duesseldorf. Dusseldorf was something else, I promise it, if you haven't seen it yet
Please change the thumbnail. Actually I prefer your silly (but brilliant!) thumbnail design and style. It fits the personality of the video. Btw, great video!
I can vividly remember when maneskin was on their way for their winner performance and their manager had to rummage through her handbag a good while to finally find the bands in ear systems 😂
Can I ask why Mans seems to be such a polarizing character? Some people really really love him, and it seems just as many seem to really really dislike him. Is there some kind of drama surrounding him? I thought he was just a really big fan of Eurovision and loves performing. (I'm Canadian, just asking because I legit don't know lol. Thank you)
in my case i'm just joking! he manages to show up in every single eurovision year somehow (hasn't missed a single year since 2015, maybe 2023 if you dont count the image how showed up in on stage) and it annoys some eurofans 😭

jesus christ finally they didn't block it for a 5th time 😭
ANYWAYS !! what was your favourite act from the first semi final?
I Personally loved Romanias, pity they didnt qualify
Defo Ukraine❤ That women slayed on stage
when i first discovered eurovision in 2021 i was OBSESSED with tick tock omg
Cyprus! I don't know if im just biased because spanish is my first language but i love the song so much its literally so underrated
I just couldn't help but love this crazy giant fluffy fur coated polar bear with angel wings, TIX 😆
And Go-A was just fire ...
If it was up to me Måneskin would have shared the trophy with Go-A.
It's worth to look into their other stuff as well. 😍
i miss nikkie hosting so much, i want her looklabs back
Nikkie was everything
3:50 the pink and blue staging curse 😭😭
Fun fact: Kat made a video (quite a while ago) about the “albina curse” because of that
Biggest robbery in ESC history was Ulveham.
Tbh they qualified, Croatia didnt, and thata wrong

This was probably the most interesting edition of the last 20 years.

actually ireland's performance was delayed because the camera broke hope this helps
As someone who constantly watches old Eurovisions, I love this series 😭
I just watched the whole semifinal bc why not 😭
"Old"? It's from 3 years ago for a contest that did its 68th edition this year😅
@@frenchhufflepuffie83 older ones I mean 💀

When I watched the Irish entry the first time I felt like whoever staged it really hated her. YOU WILL FAIL!
When they finally announced Ukraine....the last one to qualify. I was so happy and nervous
Slimane seriously took notes from notes from north macedonia 😅
THANK YOU KAT!! THIS IS SUCH A GREAT CONCEPT!!
manizha's dress is still iconic to this day
tick tock was my 2021 winner so im so glad you agree with the absolute robbery that took place ;-;
Glad you're doing the older ones!
Love this!! I would totally love to see you make those videos on other shows from the last decade too! (And not from last decade but Duesseldorf. Dusseldorf was something else, I promise it, if you haven't seen it yet
Such a good idea to revisit ESCs Semi finals !
Came here after reading your latest community post...
Just don't mess up this one EBU
6:20 The cherry on top❤
This event was a Butterfly Effect
The fact Albina NQed because of…
DIVISION BETWEEN JURIES AND TELEVOTES! Yeah, she'd DEFINITELY qualify with today's system
Omg I love that you are doing a series about the 2021 eurovision! I was there for the jury show of the second semi finals, it was so much fun
I loved this series, it can save me from wasting hours watching the Eurovisions which I miss. Thanks for your work Kat! ❤
Nice to see some deserved Hooverphonic love
i loved them
Please change the thumbnail. Actually I prefer your silly (but brilliant!) thumbnail design and style. It fits the personality of the video.
Btw, great video!
Seeing this again brings back good memories. The songs this year were so good
Tix grew off me as well, as much as I empathize with his story
Ah yes, my first ever ESC
PLEASE! The part where Ukraine got qualified always crack me up!!!!!
i love this series
179 likes and 0 dislikes as it should be
Pls make eurovision 2012 second semi final what a mess😢😢
Go_A TOPS ALL THE WAY
My runner up not qualifying was heartbreaking ughghgh
I can vividly remember when maneskin was on their way for their winner performance and their manager had to rummage through her handbag a good while to finally find the bands in ear systems 😂
FINALLY ANOTHER HOVERPHONIC ENJOYER!!!
Love from america 🦅🦅🛢🔫🔫
@eurovisionkat..........1 what does that mean 😭
SHUM!!! 💙💛
The opening of the ESC 2021 semi 1 was the best I've ever seen imo.
the wrong place is arguably the biggest televote robbery of that year 💔
Will you be doing Italy show next? That was my personal favorite
OMG I FORGOT ABT 2021 LOWKEY
Such a nostalgia,ty

Where is Eden Alene and her gorgeous high note in Set me free?
kat i will love you forever for this voices defence
This was my favourite year for songs since 2012. In the minority but I did like Ireland's entry a lot, but Norway and Ukraine were my faves.
I cried when Ireland didn't make it through!
TIX KINGGGG👑👑🇳🇴
did you know, feel something was my most listened song in 2023 somehow?
should’ve censored ma🚮in estrogen smh 😔
best semi final of all time fight me (okay tied with 2nd semi in 2018 maybe)
wait but how does Martin make the show worse every single year... I'm getting out before the disaster that will be 2025
1:07 That's what should haunt you in a nightmare. You can't win. Just run.
And she's going easy on you, imagine if Amen served vocals the way Voda did.
