~~~ LYRICS ~~~
Oh, forget, let me breathe, let me live!
Just run away from my mind
Oh, forgive, I don't need
I won’t breathe!
Just get away from my life!
🎶 epic sax solo 🎶
You’ve lost one and all, so fly away
Over the clouds, under the sky
Never come back and run away
With all your might, give up you!
I don’t believe anymore your shallow heart
I know that it’s you who chose to play this trick
I'll never forgive you, not for anything!
And now you are left with nothing!
Oh, forget, let me breathe, let me live!
Just run away from my mind.
Oh, forgive, I don't need,
I won’t breathe!
Just get away from my life
Oh, forget, let me breathe, let me live!
Just run away from my mind
Oh, forgive, I don’t need,
I won’t breathe!
Just get away from my life
🎶 epic sax solo 🎶
There’s no other time to making
Happiness, you have mistaken
We have no progressive future
I know your lying nature!
There’s no other time to making
Happiness, you have mistaken
We have no progressive future
I know your lying nature!
Oh, forget, let me breathe, let me live!
Just run away from my mind
Oh, forgive, I don’t need
I won’t breathe!
Just get away from my life.
Oh, forget, let me breathe, let me live!
Just run away from my mind.
Oh, forgive, I don’t need,
I won't breathe!
Just get away from my life!

Some people win the contest, others become legends.
I'll quote you. Spot on :D
Correction, one person becomes an Internet meme.
Like Rockefeller street xd
you quoted this from Verka 🤣
Это классика
Crazy how his 7 second solo is more memorable than the entire song
The entire CONTEST over the last decade and a half!
The rest of the song is great too in my opinion
Good yes, memorable no
@@Timi7272 yeah, I think so. The whole song is great
I think the entire song is great. Violin guy is underrated.
The sax guy isn't supposed to be the protagonist, but EVERYBODY is here for him.
I didn't even know that it was an actual song. I'm slightly disappointed that it's not the saxophone playing throughout😂😂😂😂😂
Yes!
The song itself is actually a bop aswell but sax guy is dope
@@tumbikani739 +1
The sax guy I swear I listen to this just to hear him play!!!
Those moves while playing sax ain't no small talk... Bro is the baller....he is HIM
He is HIM
no, Ville Valo is HIM
@car😁😁😁😁🫵🥠losc3378 fv😁😁😅😆😆xx va cfc,z cbgg xx g
He is not actually playing 😂😅🤣
@@thewhitenightrider3690 he is. There's plenty of videos of him dancing and playing sax. It's what he's known for
i love how everyone just collectively agreed on calling him “epic sax guy”
That was the meme
I mean, what else is there but epicness?
@@erkhardtify true
Oh isn't it his scene name? 😮
He is epic so its fit
The epic sax guy looks like a tourist who accidentally joined the band
Duke Nukem's new career
Oooo yes
I'm the 1k like
I wheezed too hard at this wtf
When they're original sax guy was absent they saw him and let him play the sax
You know you are the final boss when the official eurovision channel adds (Epic Sax Guy) to the tittle.
True haha
And "Epic Sax Solo" in the subtitles😂
If you returned in 2024 to review this song then you're a legend too :)
You're damn, right, brother
im glad im not the only one coming back
Same
Thanks bro. (:
Yo
Feel really sorry for the spinning violin guy
He could have become the legend but the epic sax guy is just too powerful
if there weren't any vocals, then both of them would become superstars!!
I was just thinking about this listening the intro 🤣🤣
For me, They’re both awesome..
I didn't knew there was a violinist!
HABSSNAHSBSHAJJAHH
And in our darkest moment, they handed the man a sax. It was then we knew a legend was born.
ahhahahaha
" here dude, get a sax. "
" Thanks. "
*legend born, mission accomplished.*
E
*in a land far far away, a young boy stumbled across a saxophone. Little did he know that he was chosen by fate to become the hero humanity needed.*
Press F
We need this Saxo Guy every single year for Eurovision for the next 100 years
I agree
I think SunStroke Project come every year with a new song for Eurovision, but don't always get to represent the country.
Edit: Day After Day (2015) is one of them. I remember there were more.
@@39IAThere was hey mama
@@epislog178 Yes, that is a song of theirs that got into the final. There were a lot more that didn't.
Everyone is talking about the saxophone guy but the violin at the beginning is just so good 😩
So true, i was amazed
100% agree! He did such an amazing performance!!!
Fr
stop trying to make fetch a thing!
@@sk1ppy2000 fetch?
Violin: Is good
Singers: is cool
Sax: is VERY EPICO
🇲🇩❤️
The next people here will take the opportunity to round up the like into 700
🇦🇩
Hotel: Trivago
thankss for 2k likes😘
In case you are wondering why this didn't win is because there were singers constantly interrupting the sax and the violin.
Совершенно согласен на 100%!!!
When do they interupt the sax and violin?
Xander Anderson r/wooooosh
I don't know why your comment made me laugh so hard but it did. Thanks.
@@xanderanderson6673 I guess you are really fun at parties
The fact that the guy isn't even playing the sax live but it is still the most famous part of this song blows my mind
The fact that he doesn't even bother himself to move his fingers wile playing although he has a mic on sax😂
Violin guy also doesnt play violin)
Imitates.
My whole life has been a lie!😂😂😂😭😭😭😭
You just destroyed the magic for me 😂 now I don't feel like seeing it anymore.
@@josiaha992 hehehe sorry 😅
2010 = just a song
2024 = the song win people heart ❤

Ok whatever then
Back to the future
@@jhordannificent yes
I bet the spinning violin guy was thinking “Yep, this will definitely be the most memorable gimmick of this song”.
he does have a pretty sick violin though, it GLOWS
It was pretty awesome.

The Perfect band is real! 🎷😎👍
Na the signers (especially the male) are quite average tbf
@@bernhardsonn7758 the male was flawless what do you mean? musically he did amazing, he hit all the right notes. lyrically it was a bit of a challenge for some words, i am assuming because english is not his 1st language
While everyone is singing, an irrelevant and catchy epic sax guy suddenly appears and becomes a legend.
I knew I was watching an historical moment that day on tv
I worked as security at the arena they held the Eurovision 2010 events here in Oslo. So much bizarre to see...and yes, I had a feeling right then and there that Epic Sax Guy was going to be a "thing"!
Same here! 😂
Love it
It was work of satan 666
I also watched Eurovision that year, but I didn't remember what year this was from. Eurovision 2010 was such an amazing year! Too bad it was the only year Sweden (my country) wasn't in the final 😂
Europe: lets have a huge song competision!
Coutries in Europe: Sends songs
Moldova: Sends memes
Moldova's song only became a huge meme after it was performed on stage. If you want an example of a country actually sending memes to Eurovision look at Spain 2008.
Moldova: sends a message
Moldova:send a legend
@@RedRocketRR-xc5hk hell yeah this guy made our country proud.
Parcă nu-i adevărat
It honestly looks like they just kidnapped a random guy from the street five minutes before the performance.
Epic violin guy is amazing too!
I came for the sax guy but I can't stop listening to this gem
This song is the proof you don't have win to become a legend
Well, eurovision judges are very biased anyways so it doesn't really matter who wins at this point, it's all about making a name for yourselve.
Verka Serduchka and Eleni Foureira they are proof of it
So true
Heck, Little Big did not even get to compete, and their video is the most popular on the ESC channel.
Don’t the people who call decide who wins?
Moldova: Forget the points, our goal is to win their hearts
And the internet 🙂
Moldova is just Ussr Romania and then goes to making a man that is loved my millions
@@kiyru well Moldova was taken by the Soviets
@@kiyru This comment would hurt many people.
Proud of my little country !!!
Some countries win, but others are so amazing that they'll be remembered forever.
This song should have won. Amazing energy. Loved the sax and the spinning violin. What a song🙏❤️
Music: 10/10
Singer: 10/10
Dancer:10/10
Lyrics: Weird but 10/10
Sax guy: Epic/10
Singer - 4/10
@@alexsur6438 She has a clean voice and he has a raff harder voice. Unexpected for his age. For me, both of them are really good.
So true
you forgot violin guy: epic spinning/10
What's wrong with the lyrics?
Why does nobody talk about epic violin guy and his lightsaber
It's still à mistery till this day...
But seriously tough I need a star wars remake with epic violin guy as the main protagoniste or antagoniste or, plot twist, both
It's not a lightsaber but he is lit
Cause epic sax guy has better dance moves
Blind people
Chig Bungus? COWABUNGA IT IS
The fact that the subtitles say: epic sax solo just says it all.
Ive never seen the full video. Moldova killed it here. Much respect
Singers, please don't interrupt the sax.
😂😂😂😂
So im gonna need a 10 hour epic sax guy hol on i think that might actually be a thing
Sax, please dont interrupt the singers
No genuinely the singers are amazing
@@cxsey4998 but I mean how can u resist sax guy and his epic moves
Singers, epic sax guy and epic violin guy, stop interrupting the dancers, please
I've never noticed he doesn't have the sax at the beginning, one of the dancers hands it to him - somehow that makes it even more legendary
😂😂😂
It’s like „here use this“ and then history changed
"Here's your brush, now paint your master piece!"
If that guy is a legend, which I can’t argue, Leo P is a sax god.
It would, but come as more a sleeper hit until like 2018, with more appreciation for the music surrounding it
The fact that after almost a decade this song came back as a hit on tik tok ,Facebook,Instagram, and more ….shows how much the legends last …absolutely love it
I came here from the sax playing squirtle
As per usual tiktok is far behind. We ESC fans knew this already....
2024 anyone??🎉❤

The legend was born
Eeeeeeeaaah

Vamo bater em comunista poraaaa kkkkkkkkk
Handing him Sax 🎷 was a career killer for rest of them.
🤣
That isn't *INacurate*
Hilariously painful
WHAT RAUNAK
let's be real. it's his moves that makes him the internet star.
Eurovision themselves acknowledged Epic Sax Guy
Epic sax guy and epic violin guy solos every band
Remember: None of the people present in the crowd knew they were about to witness the birth of a huge legend
Humanity peaked when he played
One never does until the moment passes.
They may not have won eurovision, but they won the internet, and our hearts
Yes
And this is the good thing about the Internet
Totally agree with you and you have my approval from a real Moldovan from Moldova
genius
And also became legends with the sax guy
Just came across this video by accident in March 2024...... Just witnessed a legend born 😂😂😂 I'm hooked
Bruh did you live under a rock?
I can’t help but come back to this masterpiece. Not just for the memes, but for the genuinely good song.
The people in 2010 weren't ready for that type of music
Couldn’t have said it better myself
still aren't ready
Underrated comment right there.
But their kids are gonna love it.
@@brysonturner6019 a man of culture, I see.
He isn't playing the sax for the crowd, he is playing for god. His eyes never come off the ceiling.
So good he can play without moving his fingers, epic sax guy is epic
@@pignonMZ6 The instrumentals are all prerecorded in the contest if I recall correctly!
@@murphyebony1799 I figured lol
@@murphyebony1799 yeah you can't play it in the performance last time I checked
His hip thrusts were an act of spiritual prostration before his lord.
My god the 80s are back and I love it
After 10 years knowing EpSaxG I hears this song for the first time :D
epic sax guy is brilliant, dont get me wrong but can we talk about how energetic the dude on the violin was
when he jumps over the singers n start breaking it down i really felt it
also how he keeps playing so well while jumping around is beyond me
he rly tried hard to catch attention lol
@@alaracivelek1477 he succeeded
He vibes
2010 : normal song
2023 : national anthem of the universe
the universal anthem if you will. also funny number likes
I will not like because of the funny number, but you made me laugh 😂🎉
2010 doesn't The music came out
It was never normal
@@VictorLiso can it liso
Who’s here in 2024 for the epic sax guy?😂
Almost EVERY DAY!!!!
Epic Sax Guy's part even has matching subtitles.
Thank you to whoever did that! :D
Fun Fact: This video has more views than the entire population of Moldova
This video has more views than even the whole population of Azerbaijan 🤣🤣
I don't even know where is that.
@@samipotatofy what? Moldova is bordering two Eurovision powerhouses, Romania and Ukraine.
Yeah and Baby Shark has more viwes the the entire population of the Earth
@@barnabasmatrai haha if the fact is right, then aliens know how to use internet haha 👽
The sax man brings the energy like no other. Living his passion out on stage is very inspiring.
Exactly ❤
You can just feel the genuine enthusiasm in his dancing, man's vibes are immaculate.
Sin tocar nada 🤦♂️
O sax levou o grupo nas costas rsrsrs
@@juliobasagoytialuna1980 se apareció por ahí Bad Bunny jajajajaj
The sax guy is so epic that everyone forgot the insane intro violinist
Man, the style of the late 2000s to mid 2010s was unmatched
Why... is this trending again? 🇲🇩
Squirtle meme
And gandalf meme
Because of the saxophone guy, I think.
Because it’s Epic Sax Guy. Legends have that effect, no other reason necessary.
Preguntárselo al que hizo el meme de Squirtle y el saxofón
So Germany, did you win Euro 2010?
Germany: yes, but actually no
Actually I'm from Germany and I would've been happy if this won cause its more epic and better voices
copy of RYAN PHAN comment
yes because should have won maNga
@@zeynepince4595 Oh please. I'm Turkish too but this song is much better than the maNga's.
@@AltayKahraman I think it's a matter of taste, I like rock more. But this performance is good as well as maNga
If it weren't for Epic Sax Guy, I think this song wouldn't be as catchy as it should be. He won the contest!
The subtitles dubbed it the "Epic Sax Solo". That must be the origin of Epic Sax Guy.
Epic Sax Guy, Epic Violin Guy, Epic EuroMullet guy
I can't handle this epicness.
AFatalPapercut that's why they're the epic meme band ok? ok.

>Come from Moldova
>Finish 22nd in Eurovision Song Contest
>Still be the most influential Eurovision Song Contest song ever
That is because the memers choose the most original and out of the norm songs
eh, I'd argue we wouldn't be here without Verka, but sure.
Most influential? That would be Waterloo.
Theodore Of Mystery yes
I can not believe you forgot about Verka Serduchka, judging by that last statement
It's been over 10 years, and the legend still lives on
This was 2010. How time flies,crazy
The sax guy and the violin dude CARRIED this song.
Dude was playing it with the testosterone of a guitar player.
cmon, the singing is not bad, but of coz, the sax guy is the best
The Beyblade Violin Guy
The song overall was great, sax guy was just good, but our goofy personalities make us think it sounds the best
The guy singer’s verse was also great
Everyone talks about Epix Sax Guy, but is no one gonna talk how awesome the opening with the violin is?
yeah well he is good but the sax guy is damn epic, the first time I heard it made me chill and I assume it had the same effect on everyone
@Receptionist he just wants likes ignore him
Uh lots of people are actually. Why do people start so many comments with "why is nobody talking about xyz" like is it the new "who is listening in 2021!" comment?
I couldn't realize how much violin guy is good as sax until i found this comment lol
We need to make an epic violin dude meme
As far as i am concerned This song will forever be known as epic sax guy
The Man singing has a unique voice the sax guy was awesome even the violin guy was amazing 🤩
9 Years later, this song is the clear winner
Yep
Still watch everyday
Yes 🤣

What place did they end up?

Thanks, Moldova, for this and also for Numa Numa

Imagine being either one of those singers just to have the show completely stolen by the saxophone
Not only by the sax, by the violin too
He knows he's the star
doesn't help that the lyrics barely make sense
