31:21 excuse me but he was doing that because of a disability he has. There is nothing he can do about his hands.
Since I'm binge watching your reactions to Eurovision right now and noticed a few things, many of which were mentioned in this video, in case it's still unclear, four misconceptions you seem to have:
1. In the early years the songs had to be in the national language. That rule got lifted at some point and nowadays people mostly like to understand the song. But there are way to many languages in europe to know them all and english is known by many. That's why most songs are in english by now.
2. Singers don't have to come from the country nominating them. The nomination process also differs from country to country and from year to year since each country can change that individually.
3. Eurovision is not a singing contest, but a song contest - meaning it's about the songwriters. Obviously though the performance also plays a big role, but that's why the songs are written for Eurovision.
4. At least nowadays (I don't know about the past) they are only allowed 6 people on the stage when performing. So that's why you never see more.
Also not to say the old songs were bad or anything, but just a thing to keep in mind: in the beginning there were only a few countries participating (they started with less than 10) and by now it's more than 30. So while winning was still an accomplishment, it was statistically more likely. And the scoring also changed over time. In the beginning it was only one jury. Then one from every country. Then at some point the viewers got to vote and there was no jury. Then they reintroduced the juries alongside the viewers votes to combat political and cultural voting. Also there was a year were there were actually four winners with the same amount of points. For the next year a tie-breaker-rule was introduced. So lots and lots of changes which makes it hard to compare old and new winners and entries.
I hope it helps you in the future and sorry for the long comment :)
I can't believe you disrespected my country like that as a russian I'm offended I know we committed a war crime but eurovision has got nothing to do with politics shame on you 😤
Luxembourg 🇱🇺 does exist, they are tiny country in between Germany and France, their head of state is Grand Duke Henri of Luxembourg
🇱🇺🏴
i was like what the hell ❤️😂😂
back to school with her
And Belgium
13:20 NO WAY SHE SAID “IT’S ABOUT JESUS” FOR AN ISRAELI SONG 💀💀💀
Same :)
I came here just to say that
@@liliaeth I mean Jesus was technicly jewish
@@danac1 And killed by the jewish
Luxembourg certainly does still exist.
I remember from previous reactions, there was some country or region yall were saying doesn’t exist. Must have mixed it with Luxembourg 🇱🇺 my baddd
I believe people were speaking of Yugoslavia which won in 1989 or Serbia-Montenegro which never won but came 2 then couple of years later Serbia won as an independent country.
can you proof it?
and come back to Eurovision in 2024
Of course it still exists!
Yes, Celine Dion is Canadian but that year, the Swiss composer proposed her the song, Celine accepted and represented Switzerland with huge success. We Europeans have known her since 1988. Eurovision helped her make a huge leap in a worldwide career.
It was a songwriter contest. I’m not sure whether the regulations are still the same. However that year in the end Nella Martinetti - the songwriter - was on stage as well after their win.
BTW you should see the counting of the votes. The last jury with almost the last vote changed the winner from UK to Switzerland. That was almost unbearable to see - as a Swiss.
Céline Dion es canadiense de la parte francófona , es de Montreal.Por ello cantó en francés
Sandie Shaw was 100% singing in English in 1967... Every word seemed clear enough to me. :)
And she was talking about her passion for dogs - "Puppy Donned a String" became a classic
English is my 2nd language but I understood her loud and clear.
Me too 😂👍🏻, and I’m Swedish.
Es inglés británico, no entiendo porqué dices que no lo comprendes.
You do know Salvador was waiting for a heart transplant when he won Eurovision in 2017! He was very ill at the time and you've just compared him to Gollum! 🥴
😳 Didn’t know he was sick. My bad!
Swedens ''Yoga class'' from 2012 went number 1 in 17 European countries :D
Wikipedia says 20 countries :P
Just a note about Jamalas singing: in Eastern European modes, the hierarchies of the notes are not as consistent as the Western scale. The intervals tend to be wide and can change at different points, which we are not used to. As an example, this could mean a song has a wider gap between the second and third notes than in "classic" Western music. These wider gaps in music are generally 1 1/2 times the distance between the notes in a Western European scale, which to us can make the music sound slightly off-key (or just a bit strange).
Abba were pretty unkown at the time. Eurovision kind of launched them to fame.
The "gaelic" viking boat has more to do with the fact that eurovision was held in Sweden that year than Ireland winning ;)
28:20 Euphoria is, in fact, considered one of the greatest Eurovision songs ever
And it was also a major hit across Europe.
@@JordiVanderwaal It was a hit in the USA and Canada as well..
it is an amazing song
Euphoria is one of few Eurovision songs that still could work today. Her toned down staging, great voice and energy.
unfortunately the main singer doesn't like shaving her armpits, disgusting
"The lesbians were fighting for their rights with this one" this made me laugh out loud. xDDDD
Yes the singer is lesbian. Not sure about the other 5. And yes in Serbia, or in literally any other Balkan or Eastern European country, they kinda do have to fight for their rights still nowadays. :(
@@Rash23215 so true 😭
31:10 You did not just disrespect Salvador Sobral, he had major heart issues at the time he performed at the final 💀
I thought the same
And that should matter why?
Give him extra points or what? Not everybody thinks its a great song. Heart condition is not the point
Womp womp. It still sucked ass
Es una canción excelente
Sobral was not "putting up a performance", he was not playing a character, he was merely singing the words as beautifully as he could. Now that may look weird to some, but the European public understood it, and most importantly, felt the emotion that he was putting into the song, and that's why he won. If you can't appreciate Sobral's song, then you're just not listening with your ears.
26:28 not to be mean or anything But girl is straight up disrespecting, fairytale is one of the most popular song ever in eurovision
Alexander Rybak was not voted on cause of his voice. It was cause of the violin solo in the middle, which was very unique and very well played. Not because of his voice :P
@tecdessus Yes, a song contest, not a singing contest.
It was supposed to be a song WRITER contest. (Since the performers get all attention everywhere else.)
Ideally the artist and performance shouldn't matter one bit in this competition.
yes, its not "the voice". to me personally its who im well entertained by and his song and performance always hits the spot
Es su actuación en conjunto y la expresividad y optimismo que aporta.Y Alexander es bello, además.
I respect your opinion on Alexander Rybak, everyone likes different things, I guess. But for me his voice is very good, the song is so good and the violin makes the performance super special. So its not just for the looks, at least for me :)
Fue un ganador que mereció el triunfo totalmente 👏
why would you think that luxembourg doesn't exist anymore?
Because it doesn't. They want you to believe it still does, though. Who's they, you ask? I don't know.
That’s what yall told me in the comments of a previous video...
Johnny Logan was the Goat... He was every girls dream back then.. Fantastic voice if he was today he would have become super star in seconds...One element i miss in eurivision is the live music and orchestra. Dana International was Transexual the first and only one and won... Conchita wurst is a Drag queen. Salvador was late stage of heart failure and in the waiting list to get a heart... i mean come on girl... Also is kinda an unwritten law if Eurovision that the runner ups are the ones that have the most success and not the winners with the obvious exception of ABBA Jonny Logan and Maneskin.
Switzerland = swiss. Sweden = swedish.
Edit 1917: Yugoslavia no longer exits though.
25:55 all of europe actually did BOO when russia was on stage, for them condeming gays at the time.
26:28 it was also bewcause of the violin, which hasd a very folk-music ring to it for many europeans.
25:53 girl if you decide to be political you should boo a lot of countries there for the shit they do or have done
In this case we will only stick to like Switzerland?
You should react to Sweden - Euphoria, the full performance. This clip doesnt makes the song justice, but its actually considered one of the best eurovision songs ever. And was very popular all around Europe back in the day.
28:15 this is possibly the most popular eurovision winner among the fans lol
Eurovision can always be taken seriously, but not always, and that's the fun part of it. The "troll" or even the non-serious songs offer the magic that Eurovision has had over the years. From grandmas baking bread on stage to superhero costumes and singing about a Mongol ruler. However, there is as much fun as there is seriousness, from Political songs about Greece to North Macedonia to Georgia forcing Eurovision to cancel their song from participating due to the title: we love to put-in. That's why I would suggest you to either react to every country (or at least the most successful-consistent ones) in Eurovision (for example Sweden, Ireland, Luxembourg until their withdraw from the contest, Italy, Greece etc), or videos like these for 2nd-5th place- the worst songs of each year, its up to you, even though I'd go with the first one. Keep up the good work!
Celine Dion is Canadian but she speaks French and at that point she had a French-language music career. The rules for participation in Eurovision are a little bit vague. There is no rule saying that you have to be from the country you are participating for, sometimes you do not even have to have family or ancestry there to participate for that country. I mean even Johnny Logan was boring in Australia 🇦🇺 but had Irish parents.
To answer your question on Rise like a phoenix. The singer is not trans. He is a drag queen. His real name is Tom, if I remember correctly, and Conchita Wurst ist just his stage name when he performes in drag.
Also I agree with you, Rise like a phoenix is my favorite eurovision song ever :)
Even though the more goofy performances aren't generally your favorites, I do think it's great that Eurovision is a platform to just have fun with music, be it whacky or super genuine. I mean, for example, Lordi was very goofy too, but that doesn't mean they weren't good and talented performers deserving of that year's title.
Eurovision in the late 90's was pretty iconic for European ethnic music. It is a good place to start if you want to listen to the entire contest. IN particular 96 and 97.
Conchita Wurst is a drag queen, not trans. :)
Johnny Logan. Mr Eurovision, 3 time winner, twice as a singer once as a composer. An icon here in ireland. Also, im sorry but I can't let it slide. Mexico is in North America not South America.
måneskin is pronounced like mon-eh-skin
You should see Loreens whole performance. That might be the best performance in Eurovision of all times. Her voice is also fantastic. Måns Zelmerlöws act is also one of a kind.
Ok last comment, cause I commented a lot haha. Many other people made a big career after Eurovision, not just abba and maneskin. The thing is, if you only consider someone famous if its heard in the US, thats not reality. Euphoria, Heroes, Rise like a phoenix, Arcade... where very famous songs all over Europe and were on the radio tops in so many countries. Also is not just the winners. In my experience, Soldi (2nd place for Italy) and Fuego (2nd place for cyprus) were super hits in my country, Spain, and I know they were in many others too.
Also groups like "il volo" (3rd place for italy) are super mega famous in many countries. Maybe not in the US. But really, they are big. If you say they do not have a succesful career... you have to look into it.
So, yeah, just keep in mind that not being known in the US does not mean you are not a famous, superstar in so many other countries, and thats what happened with many eurovision artists.
The best example for this is Robbie Williams. Not many people in the US ever heard of him. But there was a time where this poor guy couldn't walk outside anywhere else on earth without being recognized...
Who’s ready for this Eurovision marathon?! 😄 new reactions coming so subscribe!! 🌏✨💕
Thanks for the luxembourg shout out😁
Favour I've been to three Eurovision finals now and the cheer for Austria and Rise Like a Phoenix by Conchita was the loudest I've ever heard, the whole arena was on their feet, even those seated, it was quite the experience and phenomenal to be there! 🥰
There's a lot of good acts and songs that have come out of Eurovision. People seem generally surprised when you mention acts such as ABBA & Celine Dion and find out that they won Eurovision.
Luxembourg (and Monaco for that matter) is so small that they had to borrow French singers most of the time. All Luxembourgish winners, except Vicky Leandros (who's Greek), were French.
Now react to all second places in Eurovision! Oftentimes they are even better than the winners
Bruh she really said Luxemburg didn't exist anymore 😂😂 where the hell came that from 😆
Johnny Logan won Eurovision 3 times ! Twice as a singer and the last time as a composer. In 1992 and the singer was Linda Martin.
9:54 i mean, you were literally ON THE MOON
True! 😌🌝
20:38 Previous contest's winner was Sweden, so, that year was held in Sweden, not in Ireland ;D
Celine Dion is French-Canadian. Its only the songwriter/s of the Eurovision entries have to be the country's nationality. Not the artist. Therefore a singer or group from any where in the world can represent any country at Eurovision.
The songwriters can be from other countrys too. Songwriters from Sweden has been involved in over 45 participating songs from other countrys since 2016...
Ah so that rule has changed now then! Didn't know. I haven't watched it for years now lol
11:58 as always I said
these is the Most Important act in the 70s decade (not only in Eurovisión)
ABBA gives to Sweden their first and greatest victory in almost 20 years
"Waterloo" is a disruptive song in your time, a fantastic Masterpiece under three minutes
and ABBA perfomance was iconic, and still now is the Best Song in all Eurovisión history
(voted in 2005 to Eurovisión 50th anniversary)
and after 48 years of these victory, and after 39 years of the last song recorded, ABBA comes back again with a full album Voyage in last November 2021
and in last May 2022 all ABBA members asist to the premiere of the Voyage Concerts in London
the ages of all ABBA members now are:
72 Agnetha Fältskog
77 Björn Ulvaeus
75 Benny Andersson
76 A.Frida Lyngstad
ABBA is in another level of the rest, is in the Podium of the Greatest Groups in músic history
What about Celine Dion?
@@davidkasquare
I said these, so clearly, without doubt:
'ABBA is in another level of the rest'
the rest is everyone, included Celine Dion
Since we know where Eurovision is next year, I really hope, they will agree to sing together.. I mean it will be 50 years from their won
My father is living and working in Luxambourg how does he not exist ??
Lena from 2010 was a well deserved winner. And Euphoria was the besg Eurovision Song ever!
Rosa Linn’s Eurovision song “SNAP” enters the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States
Johnny Logan, the only person to have won this contest three times.
This vid was so iconic Ireland loves you 🇮🇪❤️
🇮🇪
You shouldn’t judge these Eurovision winners when they have achieved way more than you have and probably ever will and don’t judge all people in a country for what one person decided to do
You should react to all Junior Eurovision Winners as well
Yes, it´s a great idea!!
In the days of the Roman Empire, Luxembourg was part of Gallia Belgica, then it was part of the Holy Roman Empire, then Belgium, and then got independence in 1839.
'France here literally vocalizing to the universe, what were we doing'...quite a few big hits worth mentioning from 1969 that everyone knows and sings.
Let the Sun Shine in by The 5th Dimension, Sugar Sugar by The Archies, Oh Happy Day by Edwin Hawkin Singers, some by Led Zeppelin, Jackson 5, Rolling Stones AND...
...MY WAY by FRANK SINATRA!!!
ABBA broke out because of Eurovision. Eurovision made them international
I really do respect Favour for googling things when she really doesn´t know. She is curious and that is something to respect. Some people almost seem allergic to looking things up on video, and here she is ready with google. :)
Oh and Favour, your Eurovison videos are the best.
In 1969 USA did a little festival in New York state called Woodstock 😉
7:29 you can’t be skipping over Udo Jürgens like that!
So after the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia broke up in the early 90s a shit ton of new countries (ie Moldova, Azerbaijan, Ukraine, Serbia, etc) didn't start rolling in until the 90s and 2000s -xoxo an American that's into history and geography
Also I'm not a fan of Israel, Azerbaijan, Russia's governments but if the music slaps it slaps
Thank you for the info! And I completely agree! Everyone always bashes me for liking Azerbaijan vs Israel but 🤷🏾♀️
Your eurovision content is the best!!!!
Favour, your Eurovision vidoes are the best.
100% agree
18:40
Sorry. You are "Estado Unidense" 🇺🇸first, and then you are American.
Because from Tierra del Fuego to Canada we are all Americans.🤷♂️😁.
A good and entertaining video guapa 🙂🌹
My favorite winner is the Norwegian "La det svinge" from 1985, possibly contested by Euphoria.
This version of this compilation didn't really give enough time for each of the songs.
“What were America doing in 1969”
Apollo 11 🤷🏻♂️
P.S Mexico is in North America
is the flag of Luxambourg the flag of France???
have the same colors but I'm not the same flag
So with the early time the reason they had one mic for the back up singers is because the harmony sounded better at that time budget was also smaller and sometimes the back up singers are not singing live only the main singer, it's obviously not like that anymore..Also that song puppet on a string sung by Sandie Shaw is English its because she has Dagenham accent like majority of the England have accents like Scotland and Wales 😅
Also you only see newer winners because most wasn't part of the early competition and through decades joined competition.
Ryan Dolan 2013 for irleand wasn't the best violcalist but stage performance and the reputation was iconic.
Lordi is still from Finland lol
Loreen’s win for Sweden in 2012 is one of the most Iconic ever and totally changed the game 🙈
loreeen with euphoria is one of the best song EVER in Eurovision!
ABBA haven't been like they were a one-hit wonder. One year later the interest of Europe Was gone. But Australia rekundeled their career and it sweped back to Europe and later to the rest of the world.
Mexico is in North a America, Celine dion is canadian.
Anddd.. I hope to see u react to the full performance of Jamala 1944, thats my favourite :D
Ireland and Sweden ar the rulers of eurovision song contest
Actually, it is okay to blame Dima BIlan, but not because he is russian. He is a extreme right-wing politician now.
😮😮😮
Luxembourg still exist
You should watch all the 2nd places! :)
Love ur Reaction! I hope to see u react to a full performance of maybe RISE LIKE A PHOENIX! :D
Favour your Eurovision videos are the best.
The guy from portugal had a very serious heartcondition at the the time i dont know excatly if that is the cause of his gestures tho
Luxemburg / Luxembourg is a country of its own, until today. Though it's one of the smallest countries in Europe, it's one of the richest! And besides their native language "lëtzebuergesch" (a mix between German or moselfränkisch and French) , they have two more major languages, writen and spoken - French and German.
6:42 my favourite winner so far. She's a cutie.
czcams.com/video/rRva0YOVtcI/video.html
ABBA of course ownd all the others on the server
Mexicans are NORTH american. ;-)
Haha Favour, legit said 'Take My Strong Hand'... before you mentioned scary movie, love that film, love the content ✌️
1992 was the Show in Malmö Sweden. This was the nordig Viking Requisite
As soon as you said scary movie I knew straight away which character you meant. Mashed potatoes have never been the same since
🤣💕
Imagine Israel singing about Jesus 🤣🤣
Her: where were we in 1969
Me: 👀…. Ermmm Cold War? Sending Amstrong to the moon? 😂
The Irish TV broadcasting channel, actually got very annoyed after Ireland kept on winning 3 years in a row, as cost them a fortune each time, hosting the competition, they were begging the entries to be bad, so Ireland would loose and therefore the TV channel would not have to host for a 4th time, as near bankrupt them.
You do say some strange things you think the Irish 1996 entry is going to possess you? Haha oh dear. I think you are safe.
Love you from Azerbaijan ❤️🇦🇿
Celine dion is french canadian, but competed Switzerland. Where they also speak french. Apart from german and there own local languege. Fun facts disney heard her and made her sing for beauty and the beast.
looove the scary movie referance - i think he looks more like howard from the big bang theory
29:47 He's a drag character depicting a female with a beard
I wonder why the US don't have something similar with each state competing against each other
They actually tried that one year and it proved to be a flop.
😍😍😍 keep with Eurovision please
Johnny Logan owns apub in Dublin. Last information I noticed,at least.👍
These recaps are too fast you can't even get into the songs
31:11 He has some discomfort with himself, at least don't imitate :\ But i'm sure that you didn't know this :)
Have had a crush on Johnny Logan since I was 9 and saw him perform What's another year.
Galic viking boat?? Vikings are people from the ( old North) and the old North is Sweden Norway Denmark 🇸🇪🇸🇯🇩🇰🌍 i think Galic boat are from Spain ..👁️🕯️👍🏻
