Eurovision is my passion. Eurovision was my work and I am still gladly part of the professional community of this project. I started at Eurovision 2016 as Czech Head of Delegation. Such a Eurovision story! Form Eurovision in Sweden I went to antoher ESC experience. Kiiv 2017 Eurovision. This was my first and last failiur. Sometimes you need to learn trough losing even it is not plasant. We ended up 13 in the semifinal, second best score of Eurovision Czechia back then. But after this we established ESCZ national selection format. It was mostly held online. Because of this we found Mikolas Josef who went 6th at Eurovision 2018 in Portugal. Than 11th with Lake Malawi, at Eurovision 2019 in Tel Aviv, Israel.
Eurovision story is crazy. After finding all candidates and songs (-1) for ESCZ 2020 I resigned and left the television for working freelance.
Not to stop being part of Eurovision, I created this channel as I have an urge not to do just Eurovision Reactions from a different perspective. But also to do national selection reactions, watch others how they do their craft and also give a different approach for Eurovision fans.
I am very glad was part of many eurovision juries. Mostly in national selection and since 2017 I was in MGP Norway, Eurovision Malta, UMK national selection Finland. Juror in Melodifestivalen 2016. Biggest national selection. Also helped Eurovision Ireland, Eurovision Estonia, Eurovision Azerbaijan and many others.
Just amazing to be part of this community, so check my Humans of Eurovision, check my Eurovision reaction videos.

As an Israeli I have to say something. I think our song was perfect, I really do, but it's not a winner. It's top 5 (in my opinion). Croatia should have won not just because of the song, but because of the artist. He was pure music, not an attention seeker, not a self-righteous who thought that bullying a 20 years old girl is ok. I understand your disappointment Croatia, but just know that being number 1 in televote means so much more than the Juries!!!!!!!
for sure, sometimes not a win, is also a victory!
Baby Lasagna is the definition of 'United by Music'. He united everyone against politics, going back to the way Eurovision used to be! He has a great personality and he put huge effort into writing the song himself!
yes!!!
Thank you from Croatia so much for your comments means allot!
Marko (Baby Lasagna) who wrote the song entirely on his own, dancers who are amateurs along with his friends, a drummer who is still in high school... At Dora, he had his very first performance ever. In a short time, he progressed very quickly. Now he's owning the stage! This guy is truly brilliant. I don't think we even realize💥👏👏greetings from Croatia!
I need to clarify that it wasn't his first performance ever but only as a singer..It is however impressive none the less but some stage experience was helpful for sure!
Dear Jan, THANK YOU so much for your kind words ❤🫶🏻 Lots of love from Croatia🇭🇷
Dear Jan, I couldn't explain it better. Thank you so much for this reaction. Regards from Croatia and big "meow"
😻
I mean when I saw the atmosphere in the arena while his performance, he had whole massive crowd with him from the very beginning, everyone was doing the dance and screaming, it really gave me big CHILLS. He had so much raw national stuff in his song and also the clothing, everything. It was fun and also interesting story behind the song, I mean the CAT, what else do you need? Pure perfection, humble person. I was in Croatia many times, I root for my brothers, THE REAL WINNER - CROATIA ! ! ! !
Whole balkan is proud
I fell in love with Baby Lasagna and I agree 💯% with you .... HE WON ❤
I also liked the neutrality and his aura throughout the competition. When the last shot was taken to announce the winner, you could see how humble he was and that he already knew he was the winner. Now after the finals, I still have that song in my head and the video of the celebration after Marko got home is just icing on the cake. 🙏
🙏🙏🙏❤️
He stayed out of the drama gracefully !!
We are still crying Jan, as maybe we'll never be so close to victory and have such great humble boy to represent us! You saw how we welcomed him yesterday when he came back to Zagreb ❤
I loved that. It is sooo great how you celebrated him. I tried to find a video to see how Nemo was received in Switzerland (but I don’t know whether he lives there), but didn’t see one. Maybe I find one later.
Anyway, I felt so happy for Marko. You guys did a great job, welcoming him back.
@@nebelland8355czcams.com/users/livehA65EOpFAxA?si=hnym_aIGQw-rUskK
@@nebelland8355there is a video of about 20 people waiting him at the airport
I also loved that, especially the shot of the crowd while Marko was emotional and being hugged by his band friends. You could see the love and empathy in all their eyes. It made me see what a lovely nation of people you are Croatia. Everywhere he went people sang his song, did his dance, and showed him so much love. I wish I was Croatian.
We are so madly in love with Marko here in my family in Ireland, I just bought his t-shirts for all of us, I'm going to learn Croatian on DuoLingo and I'm saving up for a holiday to beautiful Umag which looks like perfection. Baby Lasagna has made us all so happy here. My family is united in love for him.
Thank you for your kind words
Thank You Jan for noticing our humble kind king Marko. See our greetings and thankfulness to him at the main Zagreb's square (Trg bana Jelačića). Even tired he gave us a free concert. ❤ from Zagreb. Welcome to Croatia.
Was rooting for him so hard, he seems like such a good guy and it was 100% the most fun performance to watch that night.
Jan thank you for this, my heart stopped when I saw your title. So much appreciated and honoured to have it from you. Thank from Croatia 🇭🇷❤️
My winner is Baby Lasagna, this exptionally charismatic guy
Thank you for all the lovely comments... our hearts are broken, but we are so proud for having such great performer and person
Thank you for recognizing how wonderful Marko is inside and out. We are so proud of him ❤🐱
Agree! He also won the press award. He always stayed humble and respectfull. He was there to represent Croatia and their ppl. It was what mattered the most to him;-that he made the Croatians proud. So proud of him 🇭🇷😽❤️
So true he is a great guy Respect from Israel
Greetings to Israel from Zagreb, Croatia. Your song and performer was great, and unjustly treated, was even greater shame how Israel team and singer was treated than how Baby Lasagna was robbed. Thanks for your kind words, and your fight against terrorism. 🇭🇷🙏🇮🇱
@@DominusZGne sramoti se, šta rade tom jadnom običnom narodu je uzas
Exactly, he carried himself very well. One of the few highlights of this Eurovision season. Such an amazing story. I hope this second place will help his career to flourish for years and years to come. He deserves his succes.
Baby Lasagna is a gift of energy to all of us through all his current and future songs and concerts🤩
What a positive video, many of us who are feeling very down because he didn’t win should watch this, you are absolutely right and I though the same, he didn’t get into gangs to bully each other, always grateful for the opportunity that he was given, humble and unproblematic, I always said he is the kind of guy you want to take home to introduce to your father 🤣 bravo Marko, you are the people’s choice and I’m looking for to follow your amazing career that you have ahead of you
🙏❤️
You are so kind and honest..thank you from Croatia..you figured the essence of all so well 🎉❤
you said everything perfectly.
I agree - he was my winner. If felt really painful to listen to the press in the UK rip apart the contest calling it a freak show - also watching with friends and seeing their very negative reaction to a lot of the acts, and being questioned about why I watch this dirge.... I personally only liked a few this year and was dismayed at what went on. Marco seemed a bright light and I was delighted to see how his country got behind him.
The same here now worries. They are partly right with few things as this comes with past Eurovision bad reputation (especially in 2000s), and this years joke acts and topics around Eurovision. This can only change when we stop playing some cards and every country starts to sending rly amazing stuff. Especially big 5 countries. If we have more Loreens or Maneskin each year (nothing this year), less and less people will be saying that.
@@JanBors I thought of a topic for a video, would you like to do a recap of the last years of Eurovision, how the quality vs. "freak show" has evolved and how the winners or top5 are doing in the music world? I would quite like to send such a video to friends who are Eurovision doubters and think that it is a pure freak show...
When I heard Zoe Ball tear into him a few months ago I KNEW they were gonna eat their words.
Marko is a devoted Catholic, but he stood up publicly for Nemo in CRO media when ppl [even within the LGBT community] were speaking negatively about Nemo's identity. He's an example of tolerance in a plural society, but nobody talked about that. Many thanks to you at least for standing up for him. I once wrote on your channel that small countries like Czechia or Croatia will never win this contest, and you kindly disagreed. I'm not trying to take away anything from Nemo's superb performance, but now I stand even more firmly by my previous statement. Current ESC system and the players behind it does not allow a no-name artist to win. There must be a list of strong names behind your project, otherwise your song and creativity won't be rewarded no matter how you performed. Many greetings to you from Croatia and thank you once more for your beautiful comments. We're very sad we won't be hosting you and other dear YT channels in Zagreb next year.
Actually you almost won. Imo if Nemo's song was not that good to the rest, never was it would be give so many jury votes. On the other hand look how many jury votes Marko got. It was amazing and thrilling. Thats life! I believe we can win, we just need to send the best on every level and also hope that no one else will send better. Celebrate what happened as this is an inspirational story and you should be just happy and proud. 🙏❤️
@@JanBors Dear Jan, you know us ex-commies countries, we're vacinated against optimism, Marx had no chapter in his books in that regards. 😂 So, see you in Prague in 2026 and Zagreb in 2027 then. Much love to you. ❤
@@charlotte9157 haha! that part of our haritage is something what slow us donw but also drive us forward.
@@JanBors It is not THAT good.
That is why juries were reintroduced in 2009: to put an end to the streak of Eastern European countries winning. It is a sad reality because Eastern European countries can not win Eurovision on their own merit anymore (Ukraine being the sole exception thus far). Instead, they have to westernize their Eurovision entries to stand a chance of winning. That is why juries need to be reformed.
I completely agree. I feel he saved Eurovision from the toxic mess all around. Great music and a sound mind ❤
Thank you ❤
Just became a member! Thank you for everything this season! Your voice is needed now more than ever
omg! thx, this means a lot! Aaaaand welcome! ❤️🙏🙏🙏
👋Hell yeah! 🙏
After he won Dora he stated in an interview that he is a strong Catholic and how much religion helped him dealing with problems and mental health issuses. He knew it was bad PR and that beeing so open about it could be "a shot in the leg" for him, but he wanted to be honest about it. After that even the left-wing media that usualy targets chatolic church in every given oportunity stood behind him and made no fuss about it. Also few members of his team are atheist and he's totaly cool with that. And that is all that matters - be truthful with yourself but also respect others and their believes.
exactly!
Pure gold BL❤🇭🇷🇭🇷
Thank you for understandig and support❤
Im getting tired of being disappointed after yet another televote winner being drowned out by the jury system. It makes the win of Maneskin in 2021 even more special (and unique). Marko is such an engaging performer, he totally rocked Eurovision, somehow bettering his semi final performance in the grand final. I’ll be enjoying his song and performance for many years to come 🇬🇧❤️➡️🇭🇷😉
its always about some kind of combination. Its a fact. I am not sad about this at all. If countries sent better songs, maybe than jury vote will split much more.
Beg to differ, that's why the quality is generally worse this year. The jury curbed the attention seeking (jury is not impressed by attention seekers) but with people needing to make it through to the final first (with winning as a possible afterthought), we are back to garbage song contest.
❤❤
Thank you sooo much for your kind words of support! 👍❤
@@JanBorsall of this is true, however, how long can Eurovision go without essentially ignoring the views of the millions of people who (pay to) vote? We might as well go back to the pre televote days.
So true, he deserved to win, he got my vote from Israel❤
well, winner can be only one and thats ok, he won many hearts, this is important
@@JanBors
And the winner has to be in over 90% cases from well established, rich and populous countries with very few exceptions.
You are absolutely right. The competition should be fun for the audience and not for the jury, lobbies and the current political situation in the world. We can regret the first place, but in our hearts we know that Marko was stolen like no one before. Thank you for your honest comment and support .
it was not what I meant about it. Imo this year from this side you are mentioning was completely wrong on many levels. But I talk about behaviour. Marko showed what Eurovision means and thats a victory.
@@JanBors 👍
Completely agree. Well said. Marko is a great guy! Thank you so much from Croatia.
Jan, totally agree with everything you said in the video. I was really hoping for a Croatian victory. I think certain countries might have come back to the contest sooner with a Balkan victory.
Anyways, Marko's demeanor in public and talent will take him far. That makes him a winner. Meow 😸!
I feel the same about his character , and I loved the song!! I hoped he'll win
coffee from bosnia ☕
😻
we all know MARKO is the real winner
Thank you, we adore Marko, he is winner of the hart ❤
He does not know about politics at all, he told tjat today alive for nrws. He was confused about Israel and wondering what is going on.
In airplain pilot said nice things to him and they prepared him cake, mum, dad and people waited him at airport and than he came with special bus to main square in Zagreb.. Whole Croatia wated for him for hours.. You shoud see that on YT.. He even cryed when he saw how much people come, famous people too. Today he was alive in differen news, whole day and that was not problem to him.
On Wednesday people will wait for him in his home town Umag it will be big party.
Today he said new song is coming, album too. He will have tour this year I think Balcan, next year all over the world. 🤩💃🕺
Sending love from Croatia.. Meow
Artists who were fighting Israel know politics neither... its sometimes better to just focus on a reason why you are here.
I agree. ❤️
I'md like to see the video!!! To give him some love! He was so modest, didn't think that the sun shined out of his a**!!! He never treated other participants badly. But don't feel so bad, number one in televotes means much more than the Jury!!! Love from Israel
Agree with everything,forever my winner ❤️
Thank you very much for your honest reaction. I think you said the opinion of most people who watched the Eurovision Song Contest. Baby Lasagna is the real winner of ESC 2024, because he got the most votes from the audience and because his song is the biggest hit, which will be remembered and sung for a long time.🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍😍😍😹😹😹😹😹❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I can't agree more. Respect ❤
Thank you for supporting us. I'm sure that the name Baby Lasagna will be remembered much much longer by the audience than the names of many ESC contestants who won the first place and then eventually sank into oblivion as if they had never performed at the ESC. Many greetings to you from Zagreb 🇭🇷
I actually dont think this is a point of my video, but for sure you should be proud as every true Eurovision fan anywhere for artists like Marko
Rim tim tagi dim 🤟
I absolutely agree with you. That's why I'm so devastated he didn't win. He was probably the only bright spot this year. At least public recognized that. But this year really left a bad taste in my mouth.
it did indeed
Croatia - WINNER OF THE HEARTS!
Ma šta svi imaju obzira prema tom Švicarcu da ga ne bi slučajno povrijedili?! Recite onako kako je, on po ničemu nije triba biti pobjednik i amen!
Baby Lasagna is the real winner!
The Jury should go with Nemo singing around Europa, because them are one team!
Thank you very much Jan. I agree with every word you say, he gave us only music and fun, no drama, no arrogance. Thank you ♥
S Markom bi se trebala otvarat svaki eurosong ❤
It's always a pleasure to watch your videos, cause you're not afraid to give your opinion (and you always do it respectfully) even if it doesn't match the general opinion of the community. Although the EBU made some mistakes this year, not everything can be blamed on its part. I agree with you when it comes to some artists hijacking the contest and making the situation more tense. It was tiring. It really looked like some of them wanted to turn Eurovision from a song contest into a political speech contest.
Marko has always been down to earth, daring to improve and didn't need any controversy to make himself heard. I wasn't a fan of his song in the beginning. But in the end, he won my heart and I was truly sad when Croatia didn't win
🙏❤️
Bravo❤😊🇭🇷🙏thank you ,I think Jury and EBU also eurovision leader suposed to learn something from that smart,humble and beautiful Baby Lazanja ,his story is for a movie,proud to be Croatian ❤🇭🇷
Huge respect for Marco, an amazing guy so positive and only focused on his song, on being there for Croatia also, in a very good way. Bravo we need more of those people and happy he was 2nd with a lot of support of the public and the jury as well. ❤❤💥💥👌👌👍👍
Nice and well said... regards from 🇭🇷
Thank you from Croatia ❤😻
MUSIC BRINGS PEOPLE TOGETHER THROUGH LIFES HAPPENINGS CREATING ENJOYMENT, FUN AND REFLECTIONS. JURIES CREATE THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE EFFECT.
they did not, they did their work
@@JanBors
I beg to differ!
I'm sad that Czechia didn't make the finals, it was my kind of a pop song.
it was a good song :)
Thank you ❤❤❤ 🇭🇷
Finally, one thing I can agree with.
You nailed it, I agree with you on everything.
🙏❤️
Well said! "For bringing love to Eurovsion stage" ❤ It''s a story for a movies...Maybe it will be? And also i have to say Nemo too is such a loveable person Thanks to them all for all their smiles 😊
🙏❤️
Everyone should see this video. Oh my dear lasagna, Im so glad for this video !!!!
You said it all, every word 🥰 Of course we are proud, beyond words ..This video and your conclusion should be must see material for all contestant of Eurosong in the future ❤
🙏❤️
Thank you for your kind words!❤
Eurovision should have three trophies, not just one - Winner of Jury Vote, Winner of the Public vote and Winner of the Competition.
I kinda agree with this - big winner trophy for a winner and some little received after show for a specific victory. Like in football the MVP or something like this. Also something for best staging f.e. to the director of it.
@@JanBors Award for staging is another great idea!
So true, word for word👏
PREACH THE TRUTH!!!!!
Great video. Marko was my favourite from the beginning and i'm still upset and dissapointed that he didn't get the victory he deserved. But on the other hand - he won something much bigger than that. The people's vote and the people's love. That's why he has 3 sold outs in his country in only few hours and there will be more to come. Thank you so much croatia for sending him this year. A new eurovision legend that will never be forgotten. Not just because of the song and the performance. But also because of his sweet and kind personality. A big light in a very dark year. God bless him. He deserves all the love and success he is having in his country since he came back. :))
thank you
Thank you for this video. Loved it. 😊@@JanBors
You should check out how Croatia greeted Marko :)
brilliant!!!
🏆🏆
I very much like the title of this video !!!!
I like you because of your right way of thinking and you honest compliments. Thanks.♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
I'm watching yesterday and today after Eurovision, no one is talking or mentioning Nemo. He's gone, sometime after the Eurovision Song Contest! Everyone reviews Baby Lasagna's performance again. Interesting. And what to say then about the votes of the jury. Catastrophe.
I dont care actually. Its done. Result is done. I hope we will learn our lessons from this year's Eurovision.
TRUE WINNNER WAS BABY LASAGNA regardles on corrupted jury❤❤❤❤
Jan Bors you are AMEZING also any Lazanja !, Winnar 2024,,
Euro-division !!!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Marko is a wonderful human being! 🤍
The amount of pressure that was put on him two days prior Finals was insane! People demanding from him to make a statement about Israel participation, Joost disqualification, this and that. I think (it’s a theory) he lost a few tele-vote points there, and the group of a loud ones received those votes. Who is the real winner this year? No one will actually ever know, because it was a political charade and not a contest.
Who was genuin actually? And who wanted to hang out with cool kids? Who knew they are definitely not winning and decided to camouflage it by bringing other issues? Or was it frustration? 🤫
Like come on! Thank you for making this video, i already thought it’s me seeing things a bit differently than the rest of the ESC blogger community.
Nonetheless Nemo was fantastic, Marko iconic! 🤍
Ans after all hope we will all heal. As you say, we have a proper winner, but also this year was insanely tense, negative and toxic.
@@JanBors Europe is not in the right state of mind, like you said unfortunately this wasn’t a song competition! Esc this year raised a red flag about lot of issues.
Let’s see how many countries are coming back to compete, or better question is how many countries will drop out from ESC next year.
You wrote that beautifully and summer up what went on this year, too many of them acting to be “the cool guys” because if they were that strong about “the elephant in the room” they should have not participated or withdraw, I will call that hypocrisy no matter what ideology you follow and now some of them like Bambie who know one knew who she was, she will take advantage of the fame she gain from a festival that apparently she made it clear at the end, she hated so much
@@jelbitno7178i hope that Croatia 🇭🇷 will leave this competition like some other Balkans country
@@dragonblossom-qw2pl i don’t see that happening, i personally wouldn’t mind. It coast fortune to participate. Although it’s a great platform for the new artists. Look how much love is Marko receiving. It will definitely help his career!

Marry mee! 🤗 I love you and your comments! You're such a nice and lovable guy, Jan Bors! ❤😘
❤️🙏
Eurovision has a jury problem, can be true while not disrespecting the winner who congratulations had amazing perfomance but fan vote gap between 1 and 2 speaks for itself! Strange year in general with joost getting DQ as well.
jury is not the problem imo, the quality of songs kinda is, when there are strong equal quality competitors, jury will not focus mostly on one song. We need jury. Maybe it needs better control mechanisms and maybe some reinvention but I believe that we need them back also to semifinals
I agree with everything that you said, especially the part where Croatia managed to win the televoting despite not 1, but 2 countries attracting a ridiculous amount of politically motivated telepoints. And unlike the factual winner Nemo, who made their participation all about non-binary representation (like the song itself), Marko didn't promote any agenda. He brought *music* (in the Eurovision context of course).
No offense to Nemo and their entry, which is a very well deserved winning entry, but casual viewers who already had a bad image of Eurovision are gonna support even more now the view that Eurovision is all about the LGBTQIA+ community, look at what won:
In addition, Marko's success story is the inspiration which everyone needs to pursue their dreams, and winning Eurovision would have been movie worthy to say the least. But since this is real life and not a movie, of course the ending was not ideal. That doesn't change the fact that Marko is already a winner (in a long-term sense, his entry will be fondly remembered for many years) and he has a bright career ahead of him. Most importantly, he managed to give hope to a whole nation, unite them and make them proud. Some things are more valuable than winning Eurovision.
That said, I hope that Croatia takes advantage of the momentum created thanks to BL and win Eurovision soon. Switzerland also stood a chance in 2020-1, and it came 3 years later. Well, unless it is actually impossible for small countries to win, like another comment here says.
Did you watch the first semifinal's opening act? Sometimes winning is not being first. Its ok :)
@@JanBors I did watch it. Not all Eurovision legends are winners (and vice versa). The common sentiment lasts forever, while the results are just numbers (whose only effect is the hosting country of the following year).
baby Lazanja APSOLUTE WINNER 2024!!!!!!!!!
Agree with you, I really don't like that some artist take one side in extreme way (I talk about the extreme hate that was shown against Eden Golan, young innocent singer, hate that came from Joost, Bambi, Norway and Marina Satti).
I just want to say as an Israeli, that it was unproportional step to send NL home because it is punishment to the whole NL people and I'm sure it broke their hearts. We in Israel loved the songs of NL and Greece but after we saw the real faces of Joost and Marina, we couldn't support or vote for them.
I also must say that the 39 minutes of juries votes were difficult for us in Israel, we felt like the kid in the school that no one wants to talk with him. Everyone knows that Eden gave beautifue and powerful performance and was deserve to much more points from the juries, but we are happy with the 5th place :)
I can feel it. Lots of Czech friends denied to even watch perfromances of Ireland and Greece cuz of their behaviour at Eurovision.
About Joost, lets see how disproportional it was. Imo some artists really did not understand what Eurovision is and behaved on its behalf very very badly. Blaming just EBU and Israel, this is something which must not be tolerated. On the other hand, not everyone from Israel's delegation behaved correctly, which I might understand but cannot defend also.
Also many "journalist" just put a shame to be called like this and so CZcamsrs. Not to mentinoing this absolute toxicity among fans.
Shamefull year, but thanks god for an amazing production and thrill after all!
So as an Israeli what are your views on continuous provocations towards other delegations? Isnt that overstepping the so called zero tolerance policy by EBU? Clear example of double standards by EBU
@@esc1074 I will intervine. As you could see. Many delegations and artists behaved absolutely crazy against the spirit of the show. Also some delgated from Israel. And now suprisingly - non of those was punished. Non. Just Dutch representative which has nothing to do with anything seen before, probably crossed all of the lines.
But imo those lines were crossed crazily even before, to even anti-semitinc rhetorics and desinformations. It was sad to see such behaviours and hate spreading.
@@JanBors But, you have told us previously that people in Czechia are not very interested in Eurovision, so why would your friends be watching it in the first place?
@@ar50000 because of the media fuzz of behavior on the press conference and Bambie Thug's behaviour in general. Media was covering it and this rly pissed a lots of people in here.
And also with my friends we run a Eurovision party every year. This year mum of one of them was calling us how she can vote for Israel.
I think there must be taken sone steps to stop artists of hijacking eurovision for their political statements. They ruined this year and divided fans as never before. Claiming its their Eurovision, this was a huge step the wrong way. Its not, its a platform for them to shine in music, not politics.
Found video doček baby lasagne and see ❤❤❤❤
Marko....big boy.
Croatia did great. There were beautiful people on the stage this year. Marko but also Sylvester or Nemo or Slimane…. They worked in very difficult circumstances. The main looser is the EBU unfortunately… the contest and the public were further apart than ever. It’s a shame, I follow it for more than 40 years and never there was more controversy. But let’s that not overshadow the songs and performances. And let’s hope next year the artists come first. They deserve a safe place to work and bring us a great show.
they did not work in any difficult circumstances. If they focus on music and not anti-israel stuff, would be much better for everyone.
@@JanBors who focussed on anti Israel stuff?
Marco won, then they chose their winner.
who? Imo this is the system, those are the rules. Winner is Nemo, Marko is a legend.
@@JanBors Although this is the current system, it wasn't always like this 1997-2008 had no jury and only public votes. In 2009 EBU inserted jury votes to ensure the "right" song wins. I remember those public vote years very fondly.
I love Israel song my winer ❤🇩🇪
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋
whole european society has a problem with some specific lobies..
Jan said all along this year's reactions/analysis that the message of the song didn't matter. In the end, a song with a very clear and unique message won (whether you agree or support it or not, but most people do). Plus it was the performance with the most captivating staging (with Ukraine and Ireland close behind). How much did message and staging weigh on Nemo beating Croatia and Ukraine?
Imo great song won and perfect performance, not any message in it. Thats my view on it.
@@JanBors So just coincidence that the chants after the win were "I broke the code! I broke the code!". Messages help in memorability in addition to wanting to support a cause. The results were too close to ignore it, if Nemo was singing about rainbows and unicorns, Ukraine would have won. And it was the message in Joost's song that made it a threat for the win, otherwise it was just a goofy song like Finland's.
@@JanBors how ignorant do you have to be to say that there wasn’t any message in the song? if you don’t like the message, or don’t understand it that’s fine, but to just claim there is none is silly. Especially with how simple it is to understand.
@JanBors A song about being non-binary called ‘The Code’ that contains the line “Somewhere between the 0’s and ones (0 and 1: binary code), that’s where I find my kingdom come” has no message? I’m afraid I don’t quite follow your reasoning 🙂
Apart from the content, kudos to the incredible video quality and setting, wonderful colour and sunlight display + nice, and perfectly polished, reflective glasses. Something unseen in other CZcamsrs' videos. The only downside is your spoken English. Mine is far from perfect so I don’t want to sound judgemental or rude.
As for BL, I think you’re right about his character. Though I like Nemo’s song/video/staging/performance incomparably more. But I saw BL nowhere near Nemo after the televote. No hugs, handshakes, congrats… Maybe I skipped that part.
I envy Swiss openness, perfection and ingenuity. Just an unreachable level. 44 points seem a lot wider gap than they truly are. Croatian fans are highly bitter and prone to conspiracy theories. Had Joost stayed in the competition, his result would’ve impacted BL’s score a lot more than Nemo’s.
after all should be proud of their performances.
and sorry for my english, for sure could be better, you are right :)
@@JanBors Don't say sorry and don't worry about your English. But since you strive for perfection, that's the only thing that might be polished :) Everything else is just stunning.
