Where to watch it - they stream it on CZcams. The show is planned to take about 4 hours.
But in US it's geo-blocked on youtube because it's shown on the Peacock channel so you need vpn
17:55 Céline Dion - Canadian, sang for Switzerland in French, then her world career took off.
Hahaha!!! He didn't realise it was Celine Dion.🤣
Haha yes. I think he even missed ABBA!
He also missed Flo Rida
4:20 you didn't understand him because he wasn't singing in French, he was singning in Corsican, which is a regional language of France spoken in the island of Corsica. The language is closer to Italian than it is to French.
im italian and i understood
You entered the surreal level of europe.
Nothing brings me joy quite like Verka Serduchka and Buranovskiye Babushki. Their performances are what Eurovision is all about, great music and wackiness in equal measure
The last rock band that was playing where they did that epic growl are called Voyager and they're from Australia. That particular song is called Promise
There have been periods of time that countries were obligated to sing in one of their national languages. And then the rules changed, and countries were allowed to sing in any language they wanted to. (and I do mean ANY language, my country, Belgium, sent two songs in non existent languages)
A lot of us prefer to hear artists sing in their own language, but... the problem is that for a long time countries that sang in English (or French) had an advantage, because more people understood the lyrics. So in order to stand more of a chance countries with less commonly known languages would sing in English to stand a chance of winning. Its unfair they had to do that, but understandable.
When Måneskin went to Eurovision, people from their label actually told them to translate the song Zitti e Buoni to English, they refused to do so, and went with the original version. (Damiano does not believe that songs would work equally well in both languages, he writes songs for either Italian or English, but never for both)
I dream of the day when, say, Finland or Sweden sends a heavy metal song in, like, Quenya or smth, just to prove a point. They'd win off the WTF factor alone lmaooo
Also, both Belgian entries in non-languages are superb just for the fact that they exist at all. Hats off!

Thank you !! 🙏 Excactly what I was looking for.
You asked: Is this the same person? Yes you are right. It's Lena Meyer-Landrut from Germany. First she won the competition and one year later she went to the competition again.
eurovision songcontest is a big party - we love it ! greetings from austria
How did Hardrock Hallelujah not make the insane costumes lol
Eurovision this year is held in my city in Malmo Sweden.
Semifinal 1 is on 7th of May 2024.
Semifinal 2 is on 9th of May 2024.
The Final is on 11th of May 2024.
It will be shown in the USA.
The semifinals are shorter but the final can go up to 4 hours.
Dont miss it.
Wow. There will be an artist of my small town, Biel, representing Switzerland. Enjoy it!
@@DramaQueenMalena NEMO!!!! OUR WINNER! My favorite!❤❤❤
They cut the best part out where Guildo Horn is inelegantly climbing the balcony 😟😆
as opposed to elegantly climbing the balcony
@@ZakhadWOW right. He isn’t Romeo, our Guildo…
I don't know about other countries but at Ukraine's national selection of Eurovision, language is one of the main topics for discussion. A lot of people want a song in Ukrainian language that will represent Ukraine and at the same time, a lot of singers want to make people from other countries understand their message, like the winner of 2016 Jamala (you saw this part of the song in the topic “serious songs”) she sings about the tragedy which happens to Crimean Tatars in 1944. So she sings in English and Crimean Tatar language to share this tragedy with the world. And I really like it when singers mix naive language with English that it will be interesting for everyone )
You are the kind of person I would LOVE to watch Eurovision with.
You are funny and genuinely interested and your laughter is contagious.
There are so many other videos about this subject that you could watch, let me suggest you one at random: Italy in Eurovision Song Contest (1956-2023) 😇🙃😎
Ciao from Italy
The 2024 Eurovision Song Contest starts on May 7th with the first semi-final, then May 9th with the 2nd semi-final and May 11th is the Final. It's mostly streamed on CZcams although I don't know if there is a local block for the US as I heard that it is somewhere on TV (have to check local listings).
As for your question: The reason some countries sing in English is simply that most international successful music is in English these days and there is a reason for that as most countries speak English nowadays because they learn it very early in school. So when you want the people to understand what you are singing all across Europe (and now the world) the best way to get it across is in English. There are still many countries that sing in their language or use their language in songs mixed with English. But that language can sound foreign and the bigger chances to reach higher places is with English (Obviously there are always exceptions to the rule) but about 20 of the last 25 winners had English lyrics at least in parts.
It's on peacock in the US, without commentary this time. At least in the last few years, I'm pretty sure the swedish livesteam wasn't geoblocked, so that's another option but that has swedish commentary of course
Your face when you see Conchita 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂i am dead❤
There are a lot of tips down here on how to watch the final from the USA. But did you know that you can also participate in voting? Since last year they have added the ‘country’ rest of the world for the televotes. It adds a lot to the fun. But do prepare for a long sit, apart from 26 competing songs there’s also a halftime show and a show before the votes are revealed, and that also takes forever. Every country calls in to reveal their votes. Prepare to be watching all evening (afternoon in your case).
18:50 Maneskin - the biggest winner in recent years. HUGE international success, everyone LOVES them
Absolutely agree 🥰 - amazing band ❤️🔥‼️
Waiting for Zero Gravity. Watching his eyes as that hand washing started happening. Next one starts in about a week. Two semi finals and then the final.
The rock song you liked was Voyager from Australia
The rock band, that you didn't catch where they are from is Voyager from Australia with their song "Promise"
The Eurovision rules allow contestants to sing in any language of their choice - even made-up languages have been used in the past. The reason many performances are in English is because they are looking for votes from a worldwide audience, therefore, they choose the 'lingua franca' of English to get the broadest appeal from a global audience.
They used to sing in their language, some countries still do always, or from time to time. After ABBA's win it kinda became more common to sing in English.
Also the acts are usually chosen in local selections, so it is something that people more or less wanted. But by now, you can basically sing in any language or dialect you want. Germany once entered a song in a made up dialect: Wadde Hadde ...something by Stefan Raab. It was briefly shown in the video too. Stefan Raab also either wrote or produced Germany's 2010 winning song Satellite by Lena
For me I prefer countries to sing in their own language because I like the sound of different languages. But I suppose there's still the same push if they're hoping to have a more generally popular song then they think it'll be more likely if it's in English. It's still the same in the music industry generally which is a shame. Rammstein for example, are still a bit unusual in deciding to stick to German whereas Electric Callboy sing almost always in English.
I am prefering the same. But ,You see, we are communicate on english(no matter how bad,we are understood).Sometimes the communication between nations are more importand.( to prevent the wars,maybe?)
I prefer countries to sing in their own language, and with their own style. That said, I understand why a lot of them decide to sing in english. : to be understood by everyone, and streamers/youtubers can analyse the lyrics, etc. It's a way to be popular.
This year our singer (Slimane), who represents France, will perform in french. 😊
I love France's entry this year.
Ciao from Italy 🙂
24:50 I like how confused you are and cant conclude a feeling before the next one starts and scares you even more. XD
well yes, to represent your country singing in a language from that country makes sense, but to communicate with the other countries singing in english makes sense. so depending on what your focus is you choose one or the other (or even a completely different language). while i enjoy entries in languages i usually don't get to hear much a lot, i can understand that you might choose english especially for meaningful lyrics if you want to really get a message across since eurovision has no subtitles. but ofc there is also just the typical radio appeal of a song in english. but songs that aren't in english have been doing really well, just look at måneskin (won 2021), kalush orchestra (won 2022) and käärijä (second place but won public votes 2023)
The next Eurovision is in May 11th
3:50 That's Australia 2023 with the song 'Promise' by the band Voyager
4:19 It's Corsican and not French and that's why you didn't understand
7:00 It's about 4 hours long and you can watch it on CZcams
17:46 No, she is French Canadian. She competed for Switzerland in 1988 and won
18:45 That's Måneskin with the song Zitti E Buoni. They competed in 2021 for Italy and won as you can see
31:34 You can choose the language you're singing in and the country you want to represent
Most of the goofy songs address social or political issues.
Artists have the freedom to choose the language they are most comfortable singing in, which is a good thing. Eurovision isn't about nationalities or languages; it's organized by the European Broadcasting Union, allowing each country's national TV to submit an entry regardless of governmental prerogatives.
The lady you heard singing in French was none other than Celine Dion, a Canadian, representing and winning for Switzerland in her early career.
The lost rock one was Voyager from Australia BTW
The rule of language is pretty wide. You can chose whatever language you want. English, native language, language from other country, mix more than one language, or even a fake language.
As many have said: in order to have an "international" advantage, many sing in English, but others prefer to hear the songs in their home language
AND THEN someone comes along like @ 25:10 and sings in a dialect mixed with "slang" that 99.9% of your own PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND!!! ;)
BY THE WAY . I understand and know what Stefan is singing
Eurovision is nearly here, next month (May) 😊❤🤩
Europapa, Rim Tim.., We will rave and mon Amour.
This year are lot of songs could be winner (i would not mind if it will be any of them) For me all are winner! 😍🤩
The rock song you were looking for is called "Promise" by voyager. Repping Australia- got 9th place last year😊
You asked: The show normally is around 4 hours. --> Meet Europe and have fun. >muah
To answer your question about representing their countries. At first I was confused too, that they are primarily singing in english but it turns out, that this is kinda a trend right now and especially at the beginning of the esc the coutries were singing in many different languages. After a few years french seamed to dominate and now its english. Although there are still many countries that don't sing english. E.g. this year: Armenia, France (pls don't sing in english ever again), Albania, Croatia, Lithuania, Italy (such a good song this year
singing in english, not native can be just a win strategy, like Ruslana in 2004 - specifically for eurovision she translated her already known song to english
the essential thing to understand about Eurovision is IT'S A SONG CONTEST NOT A SINGING CONTEST honestly for me the fact that countries out of Europe like Armenia Israel and Australia are competing in it a lot of people find it weird but for me no and since their first entries in the competition they proved their talent and that they can exploit the true essence of Eurovision and personally there are three countries I want to see in Eurovisin it's New Zealand Kazakstan and the Philippines
Well, this year I heard they will stream it on Peacock. It's next week, the two semi-finals and the Grand Final.
Australia 2023..Everything's Alright...was beautiful written and heavy atcthe Break..Most of it is more poppy and also melodic. It's hard for german speaking ppl. Well any Singer can perform. They don't have to be Swiss but at that time Celine Dion lived in Swiss and there are an italian, french and german speaking French.
God I love Eurovision…
It doesn't mattet who Russia want to send. They're not allowed to participate right now, for obvious reasons.
Wonder what about Israel now?
@@Anubis2976 Sadly they'll never exclude them and (even though I think what they're doing is despicable) they weren't the initial aggressor.
Which country did Israel invade? @@Anubis2976
Dont miss to watch the semi finals. They contain the most weird and entertaining stuff wich mostly don't reach the finals. 🎉🥂 Have a lot of fun to watch it all 🎉🥂
You can watch Eurovision 2024, it's very soon. This year on May 7 first semifinal, May 9 second semifinal and May 11 the final. In United States i don't know the channel where you can watch it.
16:22 Yepp..thats cool! This is my Country Austria! That Year we didnt win anything! But it was a Hit in Austria!😁😁😁24:10 This also was us and this time we WON!! Our TV-Presenter said "Damn she won for us the Shit"!😁😁😁28:10 guess what....thats...hmm...us again!😁😁😁And that 18:43......😁😁😁 We had all....the good...the bad and the ugly!😁😁😁 But hey this is ESC and we love it!
The voting has changed several times, and the tradition in the early years was to sing in the local language, but recently NO country can vote for it's own entry, so it makes more sense to sing in a (any) 'foreign' language! Several countries have also sung in a made up language so that NOBODY can understand! There's a rule about only having six people on stage, which has provoked countries to focus on back-projections of dancers (etc.) Eurovision is in three parts;(37 countries competing): Tuesday with 16 countries Thursday (the same) and then the grand final, making a fun-filled ten hour!! show
You can watch the guide on geographie now and he explains it very good 😊
About the "who the hell sent them?" part, actually some of them are good, or at least not that bad. The singers just had bad luck when performing
I enjoyed your reaction a lot! You can watch this year's contest on CZcams I think! They will stream it
First: nice reaction!
ESC is an event of tolerance and love to unite people. And it is a SONG contest.
The one woman in the white puffed dress where no country was mentioned represented Switzerland. French is one of 4 official language in Switzerland. Did you recognized her? Celine Dion.😊
Imo they can sing in the language they want. But for a better understanding I prefer English. In 2007 I really liked the song from Serbia but could'nt understand the lyrics. Because of the clothes and performance I knew it was something emotional/ serious. But if someone had told me they sing about raking the forrest or the birthday clown messed up I could'nt denied it.😅
25:11 "Waddehadde dude da" Stefan Raab One of Germanys best entertainers/ tv personalitys/ ESC "supporter" aso. Please check his Wikipedia article. Or just check the Full Opening ESC 2011 (There you can see Lena the German artist you saw twice in the video.) He retiered in 2015, but the last months there are huge signs he is coming back. He broke up the stiffiness of the ESC by writing the song "Guildo hat euch lieb" (Guildo loves you) for Guildo Horn in 1998 (28:20). Guido was the first artist who left the stage and went to the audience and "hill".
If you have many free time I would suggest watch the two semi finals and of course the final of the 2014 ESC in Kopenhagen/ Denmark. My favourite of all time and I have seen a lot.😅
Because of some stupid decicions by the German boascaster NDR the last years I stepped back from watching in 2022. But now there are 2 contestants I really wanna see how they perform. 🇫🇷 and 🇭🇷
You should have seen the chaos this year
Eurovision 2024 grand finals are this coming Saturday! (11th of May) Definitely recommend watching😃
The contest is around 4 hours long and can be watched live on CZcams
Well, in the first few decades of the contest, you could only song in your native language - like you could've had someone from an other country that sang for you, they had to sing in their language . But it was changed in the 90's , something like that, because only english song where winning ( with the 3 times in a row of the irelands, for exemple ). Since them manly english songs does win, but sometimes they are exceptions . For exemple, in 2021 , the 3 first countrys ( italy, switzerland and france ) where all in their native language .
Oh My Gosh, Uncle D, from 14:17 to 15:10 I had tears laughing on seeing your face …and these singers were so funny! 😅
As others have mentioned, the final is coming up in just 10 days, you havent missed this year. Please watch it, preferably with friends and family and make a night out of it. Its our collective party over here. We have grown up with it, and as much as people claim they dont care, theyll watch and have opinions on something. :) Im 45 and remember some of the 80s shows fondly and the 90s were ok but nowadays its a whole different level.
Watch and pretend to be the jury. How would you distribute 1-6, 8, 10 and 12 points?
There are no any limitations on languages. There was even songs in fake languages. It is an experience without any limits. Each country choose the song that will represent them each year so if you see the song from France then people of France decided to send it =)
For fairness you are allowed to sing in any language,
Since certain languages are understood by people outside the native country,
Such as French, English and German, which was deemed unfair,
Especially in the early 2000's when English became a mandatory subject in all competing countries' schools.
That being said a lot of countries sing in either their native language or in English,
However we have seen Swahili and even fake languages compete.
The main drawback is that some artists use English as a selling point,
So they end up being too forgettable to ever have a chance.
Recently there's been a lot of pushback against songs in English,
Manneskin is a prime example of how little the language barrier actually matters,
And we're expecting acts to become more experimental in the future.
(Unless Eurovision self-destructs thanks to how poorly things were handled behind the scenes this year)
if i remember well, the russian grandma's at 22:11 arrived second place .
Title is everything. Guide😂❤every year that is sicker and sicker
Eurocarnaval !
I don't like 99.99% of the music
presented at the Rurovision Song Contest
BUT
I watch it because it is for me
an ethnographic study LOL.
The language rules have changed several times
the evidence is comprehension of the lyrics helps
English is a lingua franca for Europe.
Remember a song in Maltese (from Malta)
would only be comprehensible to 500,000
of the 200, 000, 000 voters (0.25% of the voters)
Eurovision 2024 is in Malmö, Sweden
The first semi-final is May, 7 starting at 3 pm (EDT, New York Time)
The second semi-final is May, 9 at the same time 3 pm (EDT, New York Time)
The Grand Final is May, 11 again at 3 pm (EDT New York Time)
(I used Eastern Daylight Saving Time as I don't know your time zone in the USA)
How long it goes? Around 4 hours 🤔
I always forgot, that tv shows that longing for a whole evening aren't a thing in the US. In Germany we're are used to that, thanks to Thomas Gottschalk and 'Wetten das?'😉. But the king of long shows, Stefan Raab, was also part of Eurovision 25:12 and he send the german country group and our last winner Lena. He was the host of many shows here and one of them (Schlag den Raab) were known for longing at least 5 hours, but 7 hours were also possible. 😁
And he host his own version of esc, the Bundesvision songcontest, were the german states were competing.
Try this video about it. The music was way better then something on esc 😉
czcams.com/video/_FNYAqH_ckA/video.htmlsi=Lhx8uzp0kufasu3z
react to this year eurovision, u had all songs on eurovision official channel!
I don't think that they should necessarily sing in a local language. Europe is heavily multi-cultural. Turn on the radio anywhere in Europe and you will listen to a lot of English music. But you will also find other non-local languages. Some songs just work better in one language than another.
In the past, the rules said that they needed to sing in their own language. They gave this up about 20 years ago when the contest was nearly dead, and loosening the rules brought the contest back to live.
21:00 lordi - hard rock hallelujah
Many countries are returning to the idea to sing in their language, especially this year, in 2024, so many countries are sending songs not in English :) in general, this year Eurovision has so many good songs - highly recommending to watch it, it will be great :)
Hey D, here is some information, since you seem to be interested.
The competition will be aired by national broadcasters in participating nations, on streaming service Peacock in the United States and on the Eurovision CZcams channel
Peacock will live broadcast the contest this year in the US. You can also watch the 2023 contest on Peacock as well as the semi finals. I would recommend to watch the grand final only. Will be on 11th May at 3pm US Eastern / 12pm US Pacific. Usually the show runs abput 4+ hrs.
For the weirdness: Most of the super weird acts shown in this video had been eliminated in the semi-finals.
If you would like to react to the more serious, emotional, tear-jerking, goosebumps acts, I'd recommend:
Marco Mengoni "Due Vite" (2023, 4th place)
Michael Schulte "You Let Me Walk Alone" (2018, 4th place)
Salvador Sobral "Amar Pelos Dois" (2017, winner)
Marija Šerifović "Molitva" (2007, winner, first time they participated as an independent country that year)
Jamala "1944" (2016, winner)
Since in the 90's Ireland won 4 times in 5 year en the one year in between England won... it was obvious that you have more chance to win if you sing in English. So the rule that you have to sing in your own language was removed.
edit: you don't represent your country, it's the country that sends out a song to the songcontest
Can you react to "Welcome to Liverpool / Together In Electric Dreams / Mayak | Eurovision 2023 intro" and "Kalush Orchestra - Voices of a New Generation | Grand Final | Eurovision 2023" please?
In the past it was mandatory to sing in your own language. But it was considered unfair, cause UK and Ireland seemed to have an advantage to sing in English, which is the language of mainstream pop music. So they changed that rule. And honestly: Have you ever heard dutch or german 😉 No chance of winning, cause it sounds so odd to others (just a joke!)
24:22 Conchita Wurst (Conchita Sausage)😄
Can be understood as Little Clam + Sausage actually
Monday is better now ;)
Eurovision nasce per l idea di un italiano prendendo spunto dal festival di Sanremo💕
I like this way of people singing together,all festivals! Grazie Italiani per inventazione! 😍
You
must see it with friends and a lot alcohol 😂🍻🎉
Super Gipsy is the best superhero ever... how dare you
Finally, everything that was very kitsch at one time has today become an advantage to seduce the public, either by making them laugh or by being very surprising, spectacular, or frightening. Now, everyone likes to discover very different worlds. This has become the strength of this great annual show.
Jury: Sweden but Public voted Finland. And undeserved last Place Lord of the Lost. But silly Blanka Sommer Club Reggae Solo..hiäow was that good..she can't sing Bäähbäy. MOLDAU 2023..best cool Folk Trance Song. Soarle la Luna...the Flute Guy was good. I loved it.
I think the whole 'people don't want to win so they intentionally suck' thing is dying. People still send funny songs but still put effort into them. Even without that, countries are starting to want to be taken seriously among each other. Finally, the sheer profit that was made from last year's Eurovision will show that hosting is definitely worth it.
Whatever is the reason, it's nice for me to see different people having fun together.😍
I don't think it was ever a thing that anyone intentionally sent a bad song. I've watched a few of these 'americans react to eurovision explained' videos and I often go to the comments to point out that that is basically just a myth. I don't think it's very helpful either that a lot of those explanation videos feel the need to point that out as if it's true.
@@uztre6789 Same, there has never been such a thing as not wanting to win, hosting is voluntary and not forced on the winner, it's just offered to them first and nobody has turned it down in over 30 years as hosting is more profitable than it is expensive, plus it's not like the entire bill goes to the host. If a poor country wins then others if not EBU themselves would help them make it work.
missing a couple things in the video, for mainstream, greeks my number one and as for weird outfits, were missing drag queens
English is the most common language - so, why not make others understand you? I mean, yes, you represent your country, but you also represent it in front of Europe and the world.
She show will be at least 3,5 hours (the grand final). The 2024 Eurovision Song Contest is streaming exclusively on Peacock. Don't miss every thrilling moment as countries compete for the best song in the world's largest musical event. Catch all three days of competition LIVE on Peacock on May 7th, 9th at 11th starting at 3pm ET on each day.
Singing in your native language was always the rule but the chanced it too any language including made up one´s
They forgot the most important rule in the video: Germany gets zero points. Lol, for almost a decade we've been last or second to last. I think it's become a running gag in Europe not to vote for Germany. But tbh well deserved for the shitty "artists/performers" we usually send to the competition.
I don't know, Lords of the Lost deserved waaaay better than they got.
Except Nicole, Lena for winning and many 2nd Places! F. E. Lena Valaitis, Wind (2 times), Katja Ebstein and 3th places Sürpriz, Mekado, Mary Roos, Katja Ebstein (2 times).
If you send Electric Callboy, you will win!
or Rammstein! (good luck getting either to show up though lol)
@@ReactionsbyD Electric Callboy actually tried to participate. The people organizing the German national selection, just wouldn't let them participate.

Diana maybe wouldnt win because ESC is much more then only Voice!😁😁
If Yours only job is singing and only 2-3 mil people speak your language,how many people would buy the song in such rare language? Speaking several languages is the matter of surviving.🤷🤷♂
But ESPERANTO still exist.Why shouldn't the"the great nations" learn it as a second language,so there would be no mockery?
Otherwise,let's choose Chinese (it's a bigger market) 😁
The official languages of the EU are english and french. Its no surprise that most songs are in the languages that most people understand. If your song is lyric heavy understanding can be very important.
I hope u get the chance to watch eurovision this year :)

@@bitterblue8115they mean the EU, slight confusion

11:55 that was "the people" winner of last year, he got the highest vote from the public by faaaar, but the juries ruined it and got him down to second place (the final result counts both the public and the juries points, but the ranking considering only the public votes is always the better one because the countries juries tend to vote for many reasons that have nothing to do with the actual quality of the song -all the nordic countries always vote for each other for example). Anyway everyone was so outraged with him not winning that when Sweden went on stage as winner the audience just kept screaming "chachacha" lol (the chorus from green guy song)
Maybe,but "chachacha" represented also nordic country : Finland .🙂
(juries prefer harder singing song?🤔)
People who watch something like that, are usually laughed at..😅😂🎉
It is usually made for laugh, for fun! 😀
Germany 0 Points 🎉😂
Uk, double nul points made history
Schrecklich.
If Russia had sent Diana Ankudinova with a catchy song, we would all have known the winner before the show started.
