We are already counting down to the 2012 Eurovision Song Contest in Baku. We do that by looking back to recent editions of Europe's favorite TV show. This time we go to 2009, when the contest was held in Moscow, Russia
Alexander Rybak represented Norway in the 2009 Eurovision Song Contest with the song 'Fairytale'. Norway won the grand final and brought the Eurovision Song Contest to Oslo in 2010. - Zábava

Let's see how many of still love this song....
hi
Best one ever!

Bro this song is fucking fire
This song is like a fine wine the older it gets the better it sounds
Brother you will make it but i don,t lie iam in 2018
Yes omgggg ❤
I think it is, because the newer the songs get, the more they age like milk.
The reason is the further we go the more different that type of music will get

Yes
@@raiknightshade3442 if your calling him a bard then you kinda right
fr, he could walk into the white house and talk himself into being president
No crazy makeup, wild pyrotechnics or insane dance numbers. Just a super passionate singer-songwriter, two backup singers and three backup dancers doing flips. Perfect. Absolutely flawless.
real
That violin is truly remarkable and plays a significant role in enhancing the beauty of the song. It is deserving of recognition and appreciation.
You literally just watched the violin wins the fucking eurovision, and become probably the most popular eurovision son and widely praised as on eof th best part, tf do you mean
Bro,when he said "🎻" I really felt that.

For real he is sooo handsome! like jeezzz😍 and i freaking love the song
I really love how free he looks when he's singing the song just by the way he sings, smiles, his movements has freedom in it and his confidence in his performance,I can also tell that he's having fun performing the song just by watching him sing. ♡ ♡ ♡
Also, cheers to that one dancer that didn't stop dancing even when his shoe flew off.
черт, ну и атмосфера, даже не представляю его ощущения во время выступления в этом зале, эйфория бешеная
Can we take just a sec to appreciate the dancers I mean like-
IKR- everyone ignoring them but they literally had to do push up jumps OVER EACHOTHER-
You mean like what?
@@MrHenry-ru2xf they did a super good job and the stuff they did looked super hard (coming from a dancer lol) and it just seems awesome idk
@@rkcxnnor MHM MHM
It's a traditional type of dance that's quite similar to Halling, that's done during the main national celebration. It's all about showing off strength and agility :)
"CZcams is the closest thing you'll ever find to a time machine."
Okey this made me think of my life for no good reason
Good quote tho
TRUE
True .
And here I am, just discovering that masterpiece!!!!
In my opinion, best Eurovision song for ever
I don’t know how many people noticed this, but he was so aggressive on the violin (which added to the song a lot) that a few strings on the bow snapped
Was about to comment that
I think it’s cause he’s not actually playing it, live music isn’t allowed at Eurovision just singing at least that’s how it is in the most recent ones. Still a great performance though
Ikr
lol yes! i noticed too
As someone who used to play strings, my dude needs to respect his bow more
Tiktok did not ruin that song bc perfection cant be ruin

And I love your profile
This song undoubtedly merited the award. The vocals harmonized beautifully with the instrumental, and the violin playing was simply exquisite.
11yrs still fire like a burning ash
americans only just found this song but europeans have been listning to this song for timmmee
I'm american and i'm glad i found this song. It's now one of my favorites
It's better to find it late then never.
It's not their fault that they didn't grow up with eurovision like we did.

good bet because this guy literally doesn’t age
Today April. Whoʼs watching
Me!
This song has been stuck in my head since 2009
Can we just appreciate the fact, that he didn’t age in all these years…
Wait he didn’t it’s literally been like 11 years
ConsTheory: He is actually a vampire and the story is about him falling in love with a mortal girl and her many reincarnations (?)
He aged a bit, like he is 5 years older.
I think that now he is signing it better and "lower" (look for recording from year ago).
i know right he never did!
@@Brennenbalbury are you reffering to meliodas from the seven deadly sins?😂

@@nlatimer that’s the problem I have. If I saw this because it was recommended to me. I’d be impressed. Because Tik tok uses it relentlessly. I’m sick of it
Wow that's honestly one of the best like to dislike ratios I have ever seen
It’s not that they don’t have good taste of music. It’s that they are deaf and had no idea on what’s happening here
He is no ordinary singer. He sings it from the bottom of his heart and makes sure the viewers feel it.

hes been my childhood crush and i love the guy but like...... have yall seen my mans break his instrument in rage on stage? hes a bit unhinged

I think his not acually playing cause live music isnt allowedmjust know this cause of another comment 😅
@@sylphercat6099 sadly true. Live instruments aren’t allowed but at least he is good at making it seem like he is actually playing. The vocals are definitely live tho! In Eurovision, only instruments are fake and they aren’t actually playing them

2009: This is Amazing
2024: This is... still Amazing!
Best song ever written. Nowadays songs talk about drugs,breakups, and toxic relationships, but this song is different in the best ways possible. My favorite song till i die.
Really
the 3 dudes at the back really took push-ups to another level
They’re a traditional folk dance group. The jump they do when they kick the hats is called a Halling kast (Halling throw. Hallingdal is a mountain region in Norway)
😂😂😂😂😭
LOL
They look so happy to hop around
Hahahahahahhahahah
Most iconic song in Eurovision history.
We are talking about a 13 years old song, and it is always in the most viewed.
Epic Sax Guy is technically the most viewed Eurovision video I think
@@divyaanshsinha7310 what about Little Big - Uno?
Yes, but nothing beats Euphoria - Loreen tho
Nothing beats that tanned Greek redhair girl back in early 2000s. I don't remember her name but god damn.
I agree
Years ago, when I was younger
I kinda liked a girl I knew
She was mine and we were sweethearts
That was then, but then it's true
I'm in love with a fairytale
Even though it hurts
'Cause I don't care if I lose my mind
I'm already cursed
Every day, we started fighting
Every night, we fell in love
No one else could make me sadder
But no one else could lift me high above
I don't know what I was doin'
When suddenly, we fell apart
Nowadays, I cannot find her
But when I do
We'll get a brand new start
I'm in love with a fairytale
Even though it hurts
'Cause I don't care if I lose my mind
I'm already cursed
She's a fairytale
Yeah
Even though it hurts
'Cause I don't care if I lose my mind
I'm already cursed
Im proud as Greek for vote him

“Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.”
Damn
Isn't that quote made by Neil Gaiman?
That's a good quote
Dam that hit hard
I first read eaten and if I haven't read it again I wouldnt have realized that it says beaten 😂
The dancers in background are so underated.
Edit. - thanks for so many likes
Yes 😂😂😂😂
just like this comment :)
😂😂
Those dudes are doing flips, pushups, squat hops, and every exercise known to man as a dance routine and it's phenomenal
They just happened to have rented out the same space for some fitness activities.
The way even the dancers seem so awestruck by him, I’m obsessed 💕
Thats 1 smile that would make ur mood just a tad bit lughter and the performance just makes it that much more better
he actually dominated the whole eurovision history with this song.
you think? there were bigger songs
When I think about Eurovision I remember this song
I disagree, there are many better songs historically from the Eurovision. You may think it's the best, but that doesn't mean the majority of people agree with you.
I love Molitva and 1944 more
tu te reconnaitras by anne-marie david got an even higher percentage of the votes: ~80%!
The way he enjoys performing gives me goosebumps
Yes💯

If you look at the violin bow the strings start snapping as he has to play so loudly. Mad respect
he’s not playing the violin lol all backing music in eurovision has to be pre recorded. everyone that plays instruments on the stage is just pretending. the bow string just broke and he just had to keep pretend playing.
@@BenCreaven pretty much but even if he was actually playing, the broken bow hairs wouldn’t really have affected the performance anyway cos it’s just a few hairs.
They’re snapped at the start anyway
@@BenCreaven first you get banned from eurovision if its lip synced and second you are telling me the strings magically snapped just by pretending to play?
@@redundantopinion705 The singing is not pre-recorded, but all instrumental music is. I'm sure he can actually play the song really well, however the violin that you are hearing is mostly, if not entirely, coming from the recording. He does play the violin here, but he is dancing around a lot with it, the violin is likely not miced up, and if it were it would likely not sound nearly as good as a recording. For all I know the violin that he is performing with could be muted, as to not disturb the recorded music in the intermissions between singing, or perhaps his microphone is turned down heavily when he is playing and not singing.
Still watching on 27 04 2024
After 12 years he hasn’t changed even a bit
Can we actually appreciate how cute he is

The confidence he holds in this performance 🔥
2009 :- damn..
2024 :- damn..
He's in love with a fairytale meaning he's in love with the idea of his relationship with her. They had a terrible relationship, clearly from the song, but he's romanticizing it because he misses her. The "fairytale" aspect is a version of their relationship that only consists of the happy parts, a sugar-coded, rose-tinted version of them, and he's in love with the idea of it.
Damn, you got the meaning of the music perfectly!
Thanks of explaining!!!
But what does he mean by him being cursed?
Bruh🔥🔥
@@aayushgokhale6680 I guess it means that he doesn't care that he lost his mind to this illusion, because the curse is already their relationship being in a horrible state.

Everyone’s talking about how great Alexander performance is, but let’s also give it to the stunt guys who performed smth like Norwegian folk dance mixed with some nice acrobatics as a gymnast athlete I freaking love it
I am really impressed with the guy doing acrobatics at 1:45
Its norwegian folkdance, goes back for centuries. They åerform in norwegian folksuits, which is different due to where your family lived ... The jump with hat used to be an old contest 💕💕
