Their eurovision performance was unbelievable. Im beyond obsessed!
Yessss! They absolutely killed it. Vocally on point, the whole arrangement, the staging. Definitely the stand out of semi final 1!
If this NQ's it will absolutely break my heart. Ireland has for once sent something interesting and brave and if people won't get it I'll be so upset. Sadly I can't vote for this. Love it.
Ohh you’re in Ireland??? I’ll put in a vote for you! I’m so impressed by this entry! I can see it climbing the odds already
@@TheMuserResolute Sadly not in Ireland but I'm the wrong semi, I can only vote in the other one 😭 But yes please votes for this will be much appreciated!
@@TheMuserResolute I'm in Ireland and it has already risen in the odds....now top 10!
❤now watch the video and you'll understand the story better. Love your reaction. Fingers crossed they qualify.
The staging is going to be epic! 😊
I voted for this. Fingers crossed for Saturday.
Lovely thoughtful and respectful reaction, thankyou! Having seen the semi final performance last night I think you will be even more impressed now, I'm just mad I can't vote for it because I live in Ireland!
Ohh yes! I saw it. It was absolutely incredible!!!
I looooove Ireland!
This is absolutely my fave!! Great insight
Just to address your concerns on Bambi vocally, the reason they have started climbing the odds over the past few weeks is due to their excellent performances in the Eurovision pre parties.
The production of our national final in Ireland is unfortunately not the best and doesn’t lend itself well to sound production.
Really glad you liked the song. They have revamped the instrumental aspects of the track as well and added strings czcams.com/video/KWTXM_AbFH4/video.htmlsi=e8O0QeGLWnDDtg8l
Thanks! Yep I was able to look past the performance at what was an incredible song. I’ve heard the studio version since, but haven’t fully heard the revamp which I’m excited about!
I can see this climbing the odds and I’m quite excited about the prospect about this being in the finals!
So different for Ireland. Love this too. I’m Irish and don’t normally like our entries. Also, interesting observations of yours about the JKR possible dig…….💫
I’m so impressed by this! Yess, I could imagine that Bambie knew what they were doing when using a JK Rowling term! I do think it can be perceived as a low key dig
You need to watch the official video, the context is even more important!
But also this version you're watching, this show is notorious for horrendous live sound. They made all the contestants sound awful.
Some of us Irish people will be celebrating getting to the grand final as a win! Just you wait! Thanks! ❤🎉
The MV is a lot better.
First off. I absolutely LOVE your Eurovision song reviews. I’ve been watching for the past two years and then caught up with your prior years as well. I was writing to hear your thoughts on Ireland’s live ESC performances, and was glad to see you comment on it already. All I can say, is bring on 2025. Can’t wait to see you back then. You’re our favorite! Thank you!!
Thank you 😊
Dia dhuit as Éireann 🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪 Hello from Ireland 🇮🇪 so excited to see Bambi in Malmö. Go néirí leat Bambi 🖤💚🖤
The semifinal performance was GREAT!!!!! ♥
Oh you are so respectful and a good person too. :)
This is not my kind of music by any means, but I was so happy when Ireland chose this because it is not safe, it is so different and Bambi seems so creative! And after seeing the rehearsal clip from Malmo, this is awesome! I really hope Ireland qualifies!
Oh yes! I haven’t seen the rehearsal clips because I want to be surprised when I see it for the first time. I’ve heard some good things about this!
@@TheMuserResolute I get it, my lips are sealed, won't spoil anything :D
Hell yeah 🔥
#4 in the odds after the semi-final 🙂
I love Bambie, and I love that you love this! THe official video is even better because it helps bridge the verses and the chorus. Yeah, its not live, but I'm hoping they find a way to create that bridge when they're live too! I'd be curious what you think the chances are they'll be able to do that?
I think it will require a lot of work and help from backing vocals and the backing track. It’s possible for sure!
@@TheMuserResolute it's not the vocals for me, it's the need for a visual to tie the two parts of the song together cohesively.
I agree, this one is definitely not meh! It somehow feels a lot longer than just three minutes, maybe because of so many changes and highlights along the way? Seems like they've crammed an impossible amount of content in such a short time. It still holds my attention much better than most of the more traditional ones, some of which also feel longer than three minutes but just because I find them boring 😆
I wish I could get notifications for these ESC reactions too! I know you said you won't do that to not annoy anyone, but then those of us who'd want to watch, but forget to check regularly, suddenly find five new ones and get overwhelmed 😂 Maybe add notifications for every third one or something? 😁
I agree, I like these reactions, they seem genuine and interesting.
Thanks 😊 yeh! I get worried because there are so many I’m releasing in a small amount of time.
I’ll do a notification for every few as you suggested. I think that’s a good compromise!
I don’t mind the notifications, I mean I only follow thing that are interested for me becomes of hobbies or work or interests , so for
Me is nice to know that there is some new content. But as you prefer of course it is your Chanel, and thanks again for the good content!
thats such an interesting interpretation of this song!
If you're interested in better understanding the lyrics, I recommend the "intimate" version - there is one rendition with an interview from the Late Late show, and another on the Eurovision channel. In short: They are cursing a lover who jilted them and wishing them I'll (interesting interpretation around Rowling, though!):
They're wishing "that all the pretties in your bed escape your hands and make you sad, and everything you wish you had, you lose", I don't really understand the "you're living a lie, I see the scars in your eyes" bit.
Then: "I guess you'd rather have a star than the moon" I read as "I guess you want something distant and unattainable rather than what you already have". And "I guess I always overestimate you" could be just an expression of frustration and disappointment: "I expected better ".
Then the final passage is, I think, an admission of regret: "For your romance I'd beg, steal and borrow. It's draining me hollow (...) You could slow dance me out of my sorrow, but your favourite colour compared to the others is doom, Doomsday blue" - so you could save me, but you prefer to see me suffer.
In short: A jilted lover stuck between wanting to curse their betrayer and at the same time wanting their attention.
avada kadavara is older than JKR - its arameic - litrally in english I speak to Destroy - its part of the hex
To answer your question about if it’s a jk Rowling dig. Bambie said in an interview it’s got nothing to do with her. Avada kedavra is actually an ancient Aramaic phrase that means let it be destroyed, which fits in really well with the themes of the song. 😊
thats such an i teresting interpretation of this song!
Also look the live performance from Joost Klein😊
Hey - just want to clarify on the avada kedavra- it actually doesn’t come from Harry Potter (although that’s obvs where it became famous), but from I believe Aramaic, and it means something along the lines of ‘destruction of the soul’. So that’s why it’s followed by ‘I speak to destroy’ - so essentially a hex on your house or something like that.
As for Eurovision - zero staging or vocal concerns for bambie - they’ll be great. My only concern is camera angles. I hope they get them right. But I’m so proud that we chose this entry. I love the heartbeat running through the entire song until the end breakdown. So many new things to discover each listen. And yes, to those who said listen to London preparty - this song and Tsunami - absolutely mind blowing! Incredibly talented artist
Thanks for this clarification!! Yep this is definitely a breath of fresh air comparing to other years
This is fun, though the looks scare me often. One of the preparties was not so scary and they are great vocally.
If you want to see more live performances of theirs, check out Tsunami at the London Eurovision Party (on Wiwibloggs channel)
They were born to be on the stage! 🖤🖤🖤
Lead vocals have to be live in Eurovision.
Best perfomsnce have so chsnges dunamic she will be winner
The live performance at Eurovision was even better then this one, it is a must to watch, literally golden best performance on Eurovision of all time
Ohhh yes I’ve watched it! It’s absolutely incredible!! I’m so excited to see this get top 5
Not my favorite but much better than our usual entries, glad to see we are finally sending people worthwhile again - Vesuvius by Sufjan Stevens
Malaysia New Song Before Trending 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
