#eurovision2024 - Zábava
Honestly...poor Sweden. They wanted to host this so badly, because they love eurovision. They still made such a good job, EBU ruined everything...unfortunately... And certain someone participating as well.
I was so excited, but not anymore...I'm happy for Dons because we haven't been in final for a while, but I don't think I'll enjoy it that much tbh...
As a Finn, it's a good thing Käärijä didn't win last year. We dodged a bullet.
I’m sure the Finns are at this point deeply relieved that they didn’t win last year. 😂
Since 2013, I've always cheered for Sweden to win because SVT has provided beautiful, funny and enjoyable Eurovision contests since then. That wouldn't be different this year. The staging they provided for each delegation was amazing.
But EBU has made me wanna forget this year's competition. So sad for what has happened backstage 😢
You sound like I feel. I never imagined EBU's decision-making could disappoint me any further, yet here we are.
Hai Rachel, thanks for your video. I am Dutch and because it took só long for the statement to be factual on what happened, horrible suggestions were already being shared, from serious assault to a woman and attempts at unaliving someone. I was stunned and then it tured out he made a gesture/move but did not hit anyone and I feel relieved but deflated and disappointed, because Joost was SÓ exstatic in the upcoming days. This was his only childhood dream. I cannot imagine how he feels.
This year's contest showed so much promise. The EBU has been absolutely horrid this year, it's time for Martin Österdahl to step down
(aside from that, seeing Ireland this high makes me extremely happy)
@@lovemeamerica Yes me too. But @lovemeamerica that absolutely as well!
@@lovemeamericaWhy does seeing Ireland this high up make you happy?
@@maxkho00 Because I'm Irish and we ate that
This isn't the happy occasion as it used to be. EBU has the blame. Thank you, Rachel for being honest and clear
Rachel, I support your decisions regardless.
PLEASE film the Televote results but just skip the moment Israel have their points announced like you did in the semi final. Your reaction to the results are some of my favourite among the whole community.
In the end she did just that
so disappointed in the EBU. this year had so much talent and amazing artists who deserve better, but it’s all been destroyed because of ONE country… no words.
I'm not gonna be watching tonight personally. The EBU majorly messed up and its just not fun anymore :/ A croatia win would be wonderful tho!
And thank you for your content, its always one of my fav parts of the season
I'm going to zone out of all the negativity and try to enjoy the show tonight. I hope Switzerland takes it, his live performance really won me over. And I hope Iolanda, Isaak and Olly end up a bit higher than you predict :)
I love your reactions to the voting but honestly this year I can take a skip. A breakdown/opinion video the next day would probably be better anyway. Sending you lots of positivity, our community needs it right now
What a dumpster fire. Shame.. just shame. I'm not enjoying Eurovision anymore, it's just pure anxiety right now. I don't know what will happen tonight, but whatever happens, I hope a certain someone will resign for the absolute shitshow we're currently having
Love u, Rachel. ❤
As a dutch guy... Trully appreciate your support for Joost. He has made (and still makes) us so proud. Your response video was one of the highlights this song brought to us. Yes, we feel very sad, but thankfully we can still listen to Europapa to cheer us up. And though the EBU may not embrace Joost, we proudly do so!!
I am really sorry,Rachel.There are tears in my eyes too.Sadly,there is so much hurt in the world today,and Eurovision was so precious because it gave hope.I say was because it's all over for me.I will listen Bach instead.
I really look forward to your reactions every year. I hope you find the will to film your result reaction tonight. Eitherway thanks for the reactions this year so far.
NL here. I haven't decided if I will be watching tonight, but I will vote because I need Croatia to win so much.........
I'm from Croatia and even thou we might win I just don't care anymore. And if by any chance israel wins it would mean the end of everything Eurovision should stand for
:( I won't be watching the final this year even though I was VERY excited for it originally since I adore Nemo, love his song and admire him for how well he can sing live. I'm just upset and anxious. I'll probably buy myself some new game on Steam and spend the whole evening playing that.
Anyways! I just came here to say that you sound pretty sad as well and that just breaks my heart. 😭Sending you virtual hugs! It hurts, I know.
sending you tons of love from switzerland. if a vote isn't expensive (edit: and your broadcaster isn't passing any money on to ebu) where you live please still consider giving us one or two, dont give up on us!
Empece a ver Eurovision por mi hija, hace apenas 3 años, me parece una oportunidad maravillosa para conocer artistas, talentos que de otra manera nunca hubiese descubierto y eso me fascino, sobre todo porque pude encontrar canciones con letras y mensajes realmente buenos y poderosos, eso últimamente por lo menos en este lado del mundo es cada vez mas difícil de encontrar.
Lo que sucede en este año con todo el revuelo por la participación de Israel, realmente me llena de tristeza y decepción, ya me paso cuando gano Ucrania en 2022.
Mi deseo es que puedan aclarar que paso y corregir los errores porque es muy triste que, como pasa en otros ambitos, los intereses políticos y económicos prevalezcan.
Te deseo muchos exitos, haces un trabajo maravilloso, un gran saludo de una migrante venezolana viviendo en Argentina
Thank you for the video, professional and interesting, as always, especially as Croatian. For tonight I just hope everything will be fine with no further incidents and let the best win!!!
This Eurovision was a bitter-sweet experience.... Way more bitter than sweet. I am so sad about Norway's result They were so amazing, it will be one of my forever favourite songs. I am happy with the winner, Nemo was in my strict top. So was Marko and Bambie :) I with Croatia possibility to hold Eurovision in some more stable times.
You're not the only having lost the appetite ... I'm feeling weird and bad the past two days. Eurovision should be a party, where musics unites people, yet we are now in this mess that is probably representing the state of our world in 2024, where polarization and intolerance are at a all time high. I can't believe how the EBU is just shooting itself in both feet.
This is my final prediction I made yesterday with my secret formula. The Netherlands were in 8th before I had to remove them.
1 Croatia
2 Switzerland
3 Israel
4 Ukraine
5 Italy
6 France
7 Ireland
8 Norway
9 Lithuania
10 Greece
11 Sweden
12 Portugal
13 Georgia
14 Armenia
15 Austria
16 United Kingdom
17 Slovenia
18 Finland
19 Serbia
20 Cyprus
21 Latvia
22 Estonia
23 Germany
24 Spain
25 Luxembourg
If Israel wins I think we probably will have seen the last Eurovision.
I have no appetite for tonight. I'm only gonna watch it for my favorites. Greece, Croatia, Switzerland, Italy, Ireland and Ukraine. I'm so disappointed with what is going on. In my opinion Israel shouldn't participate this year , it's only creating drama , a bad atmosphere and trouble and putting people in danger. That's all I'm gonna say. Good luck to our girl Marina Satti and let the best performance win . I hope it isn't Israel as a reaction to the drama
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I really like your prediction system, it’s very accurate and aside from a few outliers, it’s almost uncanny. The morning after a very controversial week, I still feel very conflicted. Just like Nemo said in his post-win interview, maybe the Contest needs some fixing too.
Hey Rachel. Feeling very meh about it all! I'm going to try and enjoy the music this evening but maaaaan.
Anyway - definitely keen to hear further thoughts on the make-up of juries if Bambie doesn't get appreciated by the juries. Enjoy the show and see you on the other side!
You were super close to the actual results! Great predictions. And kudos to Israel ❤️🇮🇱
i don't feel like watching anymore.... without ireland, estonia and swiss aswell.
oh i won't be voting if i end up watching at all. no cent for ebu. and yes, part of the voting money does go to ebu. it's different for every country though
But they aren't withdrawing though
Rachel, we need your views on the final result!
I think latvaa has quiet a good running order position as its after a long run of songs that are very upbeat and dramatic , lithuania , spain , estonia and ireland . latvia should stand out a bit so i could see around 30-50 televote points
Ukraine 8ty is crazy. The running order is good for it. I think the new voting and reverse recap will help it a lot. I have it between 1st and 3rd.
I've given up watching. It just isn't the happy occasion it should be. I'll still vote, sending all my votes to Croatia and Ireland, not just because they're my favourites, but I also really don't want that other country to win.
Same here!
Balanced and rational analysis. Appreciate it Rachel! I will be boycotting EBU and not watching any live coverage tonight. Iy just feels wrong and the fun is gone anyway. I respect that other people have a different opinion though.
if Slovenia cooked their song a lil longer it would've been a contender. There's something missing in the 2nd part that really drags it down. The first half of the song is just straight up by far the best piece of music in the contest
It's just basic verse-chorus-verse-chorus-bridge-chorus, it doesn't do itself justice I find. But everything else about it is winner level!
I would've agreed with you re Norway - their actual result was my biggest shock of the night
Running order for Greece is like 9.5 it's probably the best spot to be in the 1st half + Marina's vocals are 10/10 she had fever and pharyngitis during her semi final performance. Tonight she will be great!
I stand with joost
Rachel, I really enjoyed your videos over the last few weeks. Well done - its all a bit of a damp squib now
I agree with your 1st and 2nd place. I feel it will be closer than people think. I wouldn’t be surprised if France get the most points from the juries.
Hey Rach.
We're in the midst of a crisis. We absolutely need reform at ESC, and I think after tonight thats the only major way it can go. Either that, or we have a mega reduced eurovision from here on out, if any at all. I won't make a prediction, but I will say that I'm still going to watch and try to make the most of the evening while hoping for one outcome. I need not specify here, I'm sure you all can figure what i mean.
Down with the current EBU, up with a new, cleaner, better ESC!
Winner? At this point anyone except that one country, but I would love to see your reactiong even if you have to delete some scenes
I kind of feel a bit like you do with regard to not feeling it as much as before, ESPECIALLY if a particular country beginning with "I" wins. The EBU have a real problem if they do, as who's going to want to go there next year?
With regard to my finishing order prediction, after a bit of fiddling with it, I've come up with this, which I reserve the right to change as much as I like before they start announcing the jury votes (I posted this comment at 7pm on Saturday night):
1 - CROATIA
2 - A certain country beginning with "I"
3 - SWITZERLAND
4 - UKRAINE
5 - IRELAND
6 - ITALY
7 - SWEDEN
8 - FINLAND
9 - NORWAY
10 - FRANCE
11 - SLOVENIA
12 - UNITED KINDGOM
13 - LITHUANIA
14 - SERBIA
15 - GEORGIA
16 - AUSTRIA
17 - CYPRUS
18 - LATVIA
19 - GREECE
20 - ARMENIA
21 - LUXEMBOURG
22 - ESTONIA
23 - SPAIN
24 - PORTUGAL
25 - GERMANY
And yes, I really do fear that the public votes from the Jewish diaspora across Europe could well probably overcome the people who WON'T vote for Israel, sadly. And who knows which juries will be brave enough to give them 12 points. I think the EBU are going to be busy with their fake cheering machine tonight ...
I like your prediction of third place for Ireland. I'd love them to win the whole thing, but I think that's a stretch too far. Maybe I've got the UK too high and a few others too low, but I really can't call it this year with regard to everything outside the top ten!
Hi, yeah with everything that has happened I am already stressed out hopefully we can all try to relax and enjoy the show. I am hoping for Croatia of course. I heard some people want to boycott the show and televoting but maybe that would be favoring a certain country that is paying for ads on youtube to convince people to vote for them. So what are they elections now ? So yeah I will still be watching and voting but if the result turns out to be 'political' it will be the last time I watch it.
As much as I love Eurovision, I can't bring myself to watch it with Israel participating. 🥺
Norway is my favorite but I have a bad feeling about it. I see it finishing somewhere between 15-20, but I hope I am wrong. I also see Slovenia finishing lower than 20th place.
You were more right than you probably thought. Can you explain why you had a bad feeling about them?
Thx. If a certain country wins tonight,
it might be the end of Eurovision as we know it.
Bad decisions on a dilemma, that has been known for
several months. Peace, all you music lovers out there.
Yeah there would very low viewership next year, drama over whether or not said country is secure enough to host the competition, and possibly several countries withdrawing from the competition. Croatia is still ahead in the odds… I’m really hoping he wins tonight.
It didn't happen, I'm glad. 😀
The LGBT won, I'm glad (though I'm straight). 😀
This has been the by far worst ESC,
what a shame for hosts Sweden, who did a good job. 👍
Norway: Televote: 6, Jury: 6.5, Vocals: 9, Song: 10, Staging: 9, Running Order: 7, TOTAL: 7.91 It's gonna be soo overlooked
Switzerland: Televote: 8.5, Jury: 9.5, Vocals: 9, Song: 9, Staging: 7.5, Running Order: 7, TOTAL: 8.41
Croatia: Televote: 10, Jury: 8.5, Vocals: 4, Song: 7, Staging: 10, Running Order: 10, TOTAL: 8.25
France: Televote: 7.5, Jury: 10, Vocals: 10, Song: 7.5, Staging: 9, Running Order: 9.5, TOTAL: 8.91
I'm a bit sad for Italy 🇮🇹 I hope they could reach at least the 5th place. I don't like the 6th 😭😭😭
As soon as the EBU allowed Israel into the competition, it became political.
Mon top 10 : 1-Ukraine 2-Italie 3-Suisse 4-Malte 5-France 6-Lituanie 7-Chypre 8-Grece 9-Espagne 10-Luxembourg (France)
🕊️
Croatia has EVERYTHING to win this contest and I'll be happy if they do so (even though I wouldn't complain at all if Switzerland, my favorite, won)
Baby Lasagna please❤
the first time esc had a song in a genre I already loved, EBU managed to completely destroy the entire show and for the first time ever i wont be watching the show. Over a month of excitement about Joost just gone to nothing :(
Sadly i'm now in a world where i see that country storming the televote and taking the win overall !! No words...
I'd like to see Croatia win but I expect Switzerland. Germany and Latvia could do well with the juries.
Please!!! Do the reaction!!
I think its disgusting what happened I can understand why he wasn’t allowed to perform live but they should have at least let The Netherlands still be allowed to compete and do what the Jury Final did and play his performance from the semi finals!!!! #Eurovision 🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱
🇮🇪 ⚖️ 🇳🇱 🎶🎶🎶🎶
You have my support for your decision.
italy out of top 5???
Please , film your reaction
When it comes to staging, Ireland and Switzerland are in a league of their own this year. I think Latvia may do much better than people think, too. I have a few friends who watch and Latvia is one of their favourite songs. I do think Switzerland could just pip Croatia to the win this year though. Have to wait and see!
NEMO AND BAMBIE TO WIN!
NEMO WON AND BAMBIE CROWNED HIM!
I really hope your prediction is right, but I fear Israel might place higher tbh. They have a large diaspora and are using their embassies to encourage voters, and juries may score Israel highly too.
oh rachel i can hear the pain in your voice :( i just hope at the very least the winner isn't you know who and we don't end on a full on sour note
I barely even care what happens tonight at this point. I fear Israel will be given the win. I am going to put my votes behind Ireland and Croatia. I want Ireland to take it but at this point I just want ANYONE but Israel to win. I’m hoping that all the votes that would’ve gone to joost will super boost up another artist.
We need a breakaway contest with a new set of rules. E.g. if you're being investigated by ICC then you can't compete. Simple. And we definitely shouldn't be including any non-democratic countries which don't stand for freedom of expression e.g. Russia.
This season is ending with a weak fart
that's... certainly one way to put it
I always like your videos, so I hope you do your reactions and analysis like in previous years. I feel this year has been tainted by Israels participation unfortunately, for me the exclusion of Netherlands doesn't impact my enjoyment because if he did confront and threaten an official cameraperson, thats just shameful, even if he didnt hit her. He is there to be filmed, sorry. So if he has issues with that, he didnt have to come. But I know his fan girls will attack me now, but this is just my opinion.
He asked not to be filmed during crying, since he had just finished singing to his dead father. He had asked a few times. They said they wouldn't film him.
AWFUL decision to get rid of my man Joost. Innocent before proven guilty! We need to stop Israel and politics winning! Baby Lasagna is the only one who can unite Europe and put music first - United by Music! Sad you're considering not filming a reaction - this is one of my favourite things to see after Eurovision!
I had tears in my eyes Tuesday night watching watching the colour excitement music and general feelgood factor Eurovision generates every year.
Its is starting to stink though, contestants constantly under pressure to boycott cant be fun for them, and while Russia are banned Israel are not for some strange reason, yet going by the odds 1/2 to win the telly vote they look set to win, i will vomit if they do and boycott the competition next year.
Hopefully, Israel is not going to win! feeling so bad for Joost - Man what did you do to upset the women that much ?- that was a winning song for me.
France too borring....9-15 place
So many amazing songs this year, so much potential for an incredible show, and the EBU has fucked it all up. Respect whatever decision you make, Rachel 🫶🍉
