I know that Eurovision 2020 has been cancelled. As heartbreaking as this news is, it is also important to stay connected as one Eurovision family and continue to find strength and inspiration through the universal language of music. I will move forward with posting these reaction videos as I originally intended and promised. #EurovisionStrong
Regarding your question: Ben Dolic isn't an established artist here in Germany. He came second in The Voice of Germany in 2018 but other than that he wasn't really known here. He's more of a newcomer :)
Jake’s Face Reacts No, it was an internal selection this time (and it‘ll probably stay internal for a while). Two juries (a fan jury and a so-called 'expert' jury) voted on more than 500 songs and Ben Dolic‘s Violent Thing won :) Switzerland has the same internal selection process as far as I know
Dear Jake, thank you for still continuing your reaction series despite the cancellation. That means so much in these days... the situation feels dire and scary at the moment... so it's great that we Eurovision community are there for each other.... I'm sending love and strength from Germany 💝
Ben is from Slovenia and took part in their selection in 2016. Later, he moved to Switzerland and in January to Berlin. He came also second in the Voice of Germany (you have to check out his performances, they are outstanding). So he isn't really established and more of a newcomer.
I really love Germany this year...but now it doesn't even matter... 😳😧😣 Jake please continue with your recations,we well need it... Germany please have song equally great as this one next year...
Germany: I just love this. They better not screw up the staging (if he competes in 2021). Might be the 2nd best entry from Germany in a while. You can’t beat 2018! Btw continue to react despite being canceled.
Can't bring myself to say anything about You Know What, so I'll just say THANKYOU for confirming you'll keep up with your reactions. There's no reason to stop and so many reasons to carry on 🙂 I love love LOVE this song and will always wonder what could have been. PS - That t-shirt is amazing. I WANT.
Sad that Eurovision was cancelled, but I really hope that it somehow will take place later this year. Not just because of us the fans, but also the participants who all deserve to present their song on the big stage. I want to thank you for keeping the promise (reacting to the songs) and I really hope that you will like them :D
I was genuinely surprised when I first heard it. I did not expect such contemporary sound from Germany. My bad :) I immediately put it into the "that's definitely pure quality but obviously not for me" box. But since then I have caught myself many times getting really into it when it comes up on my Eurovision playlist. It really stands up from the bunch and gets me moving and grooving. PS: in regards to the news we've heard today. The contest may be canceled but we still can celebrate the countries and the artists and their music in this community and beyond. And we all know that this decision was not meant to hurt as quite the opposite. So let's all do our part to kick this nasty viruse's ass! And let's all gear up for ESC 2021 🖤
One of my favorites. After hearing all 41 songs, this is in my Top 5, and I'm not usually a big fan of songs like this. I love the beat, and how much energy there is all throughout this song. This could be on the radio in the United States...definitely played in clubs in the United States. Most people have compared him to Justin Timberlake, and a few to Justin Bieber, but i think your comparison to Daniel Bedingfield is so much more accurate.
wait till u hear the rest , outstanding just about everything lease do these when you get round to it, also jesc is upon us and they are very very good!
Hey Jake, first of all : I love your T-shirt haha ! So in my opinion Germany had a good radio friendly song this year but I gotta be honest, his voice is not one of my favourites. Normally I don't like these type of voice especially when performing live. I'll give this a 6/10 :)
Буде щось нове, головне аби усі були живі та здорові. Усім вам бажаю, лише здоров"я бо це головне. Пісні будуть завжди, і свято пісні у душі кожного може бути кожен день. Здоровья ще раз усім.
I'm really sad we won't see a lot of these songs live on the big stage. I hope they let all these artists return to the 2021 contest but I'm not holding my breath.
for me the best eurovision song ever is sister performed by sisters last year guys...amigos...my eurovision bro's...my friends, i must tell you something being dead honest, PLEASE dont think i am acting like a wise guy or something, PLEASE listen every song has its own story just like a movie, its not only how good artist can sing or how awesome music in that song is, the big part of every song is its story ! now tell me honestly how many of you know whats the story in the song sister ? huh ? i bet only very very few knows, and if you dont know the story behind that song, i am afraid you cant say do you like or not or rate the song, because you dont know what you rating its like being on a date with some beautiful blondie and when you come home your friends ask you, do you like that girl, and you say, yeah ! oh yeah ! and when they ask you to tell something about her, what she's like and so, you dont know anything about her beside that she is pretty and have pretty eyes so, how can you like someone or something you dont know so well ? and also how can you dislike something you dont know so well ? so, sisters are not so amazing vocals, but they were good enough music, staging and everything else wasnt so amazing but it was good enough BUT ! the most beautiful thing ever was the lyrics and the story behind their song ! it just brings me to the edge of tears every time i listen, who ever wrote that song, i really admire your heart its a HUGE masterpiece ! and thank you !
Germany should keep him, and this song (hopefully) Netherlands, Spain , Malta,Greece, Ukraine and Croatia (I guess) already announced that they will be sending the same artists, And yes, he was chosen internally,
I understand that they cancelled it in May......but we still have plans for the Junior Eurovision 2020 end of November and the big venue in Poland. Why don't they do the ESC 2020 together with the JESC 2021? First week they could do the JESC and right after that they can do the 2 weeks of ESC in the same venue and the Netherland could host the ESC 2021.
I like Germany and I know it's most people's Big 5 favorite...not to me though because I only remember it when I hear it, I tend to forget its existence when it's not playing, when I see people talking about it, I tend to not remember what it sounds like...so I've reach the conclusion that it was generic and felt like any random mainstream songs. I'm a bit harsh, I know. I think it would have done well specifically because of the mainstream vibes. So I like it when I hear that's my conclusion. I think the humiliation of the zero point from the public made Germany do the change between this year and last year. It's a good move.

yass!!!! i was going to say you that hahahaha I'm glad you will continue with the reactions!! thanks a lot :)
Thank you. I really wanna hear your opinion on all these songs, and it gives me more to watch doing this time we're in
Great. I know you’ll get a good laugh on some. Namely Russia!
Yes please! 2020 is absolutely the best year ever, I am so sorry for all entries, they are so good, and will not be able to perform!
Even though ESC this year is cancelled, I hope you're still gonna react to the songs
I hope so too!¨
Glad to see your reactions even though eurovision got cancelled :(
Today the ESC in Rotterdam was canceled due to the corona virus.😭😭😭 Now to the song the song is much better than last year. 😍😍😍
Regarding your question: Ben Dolic isn't an established artist here in Germany. He came second in The Voice of Germany in 2018 but other than that he wasn't really known here. He's more of a newcomer :)
Zileenah So there wasn’t a national selection or contest?
Jake’s Face Reacts No, it was an internal selection this time (and it‘ll probably stay internal for a while). Two juries (a fan jury and a so-called 'expert' jury) voted on more than 500 songs and Ben Dolic‘s Violent Thing won :) Switzerland has the same internal selection process as far as I know
Thought Switzerland had separate jury’s an Italian french German and romansch
@@JakesFaceReacts Thank god, it wasn´t (like the other dissapointing years)!
@Tara king *Slovenia
Dear Jake, thank you for still continuing your reaction series despite the cancellation. That means so much in these days... the situation feels dire and scary at the moment... so it's great that we Eurovision community are there for each other.... I'm sending love and strength from Germany 💝
Karoline It’s my pleasure to provide something even its only a few minutes to escape from real life.💚✌️
I'd love to hear him do a song with Loïc Nottet. I reckon their voices together would be crazy in all the best ways.

I really love Germany this year...but now it doesn't even matter... 😳😧😣
Jake please continue with your recations,we well need it...
Germany please have song equally great as this one next year...
He would have been my winner this year
He will be next year 🙃
Thank you Jake for the great reaction to our song ❤️
One of my favourites from this year's songs. In my Top 3, love it! Such a banger!!
Germany: I just love this. They better not screw up the staging (if he competes in 2021). Might be the 2nd best entry from Germany in a while. You can’t beat 2018!
Btw continue to react despite being canceled.
What staging, it will be another song in 2021
geminix365 I wrote that hours before finding out the news and just copy and paste from my notes.
Even though they won't compete, there's still plenty of good songs to listen, so I'm glad you're continuing!
thank you for still posting these.
I think his special voice fits in this song perfectly.
Can't bring myself to say anything about You Know What, so I'll just say THANKYOU for confirming you'll keep up with your reactions. There's no reason to stop and so many reasons to carry on 🙂 I love love LOVE this song and will always wonder what could have been.
PS - That t-shirt is amazing. I WANT.
Like it ...👍 Germany ...lowe from Serbia ♥️👍♥️Super!🇷🇸♥️
The year Germany and UK send an amazing song it gets cancelled :(...hope these countries can still run with the same song
Lithuania next!:)
He makes Top 5 first
@@deachris03 Big 5 and host country*
Such a bop
Massive improvement from last year. I feel if sweden sent it people would hate it!
I hope they will keep all songs and artists to next year, because I feel so bad for them ;/
Even if ESC is cancelled it will be nice to have your reactions.
Thank you Bosnia for Benjamin Dolic. Born in Slovenia but mom and dad bosnians yippiiii nice voice
Glad you like our entry! ;-)
Can't say I like this song a lot but such an improvement from last year and we stan 💙
Omfg I only saw your T-shirt at the end! I LOVE IT!
Harry Nugget Glad you liked it.💚✌️

I want to thank you for keeping the promise (reacting to the songs) and I really hope that you will like them :D
I listened to a live acoustic performance. This actually is his voice. And people were also reacting like “I thought he was autotuned before!”
Eurovision 2020 still continues to live on in the fandom even if there isn’t a semi or a final!! We still have our 41 songs!!
Not sure which I love more, your reaction to this song or your rainbow unicorn cat shirt.
Sean Casey That made me laugh. It takes a strong man to wear a rainbow unicorn cat shirt for all the world to see.
@@JakesFaceReacts And you rock it so well! Now I wish I had one.
Германия меня удивила в этом году, смотрела видео аж три раза! 😃 Очень милая песенка!
You have finally come
Where are you
we miss
reaction videos
Germany did a complete 180 from last year. This is so good! This would’ve been top ten. Danke schön, Deutschland.
Dear EBU,
let them compete with this years songs!😭

No Eurovision 2020......appointment is for 2021!!
Even tho he represent Germany for Eurovision 2020 (or 2021? Cuz of the cancellation) he’s Slovenian. He’s apparently popular in Germany
Hey Jake, first of all : I love your T-shirt haha !
So in my opinion Germany had a good radio friendly song this year but I gotta be honest, his voice is not one of my favourites. Normally I don't like these type of voice especially when performing live.
I'll give this a 6/10 :)

@Tara king I was already doing that and will keep doing it for a long time. There were some awesome songs this year.
Since 10 years, it´s the first time, Germany could win and then it´s canceled....
My winner!!! Greetings from Ukraine 😚!
Eurovision 2020 is cancelled 😭😭😭
for me the best eurovision song ever is sister performed by sisters last year
guys...amigos...my eurovision bro's...my friends, i must tell you something being dead honest, PLEASE dont think i am acting like a wise guy or something, PLEASE listen
every song has its own story just like a movie, its not only how good artist can sing or how awesome music in that song is, the big part of every song is its story !
now tell me honestly how many of you know whats the story in the song sister ? huh ?
i bet only very very few knows, and if you dont know the story behind that song, i am afraid you cant say do you like or not or rate the song, because you dont know what you rating
its like being on a date with some beautiful blondie and when you come home your friends ask you, do you like that girl, and you say, yeah ! oh yeah !
and when they ask you to tell something about her, what she's like and so, you dont know anything about her beside that she is pretty and have pretty eyes
so, how can you like someone or something you dont know so well ?
and also how can you dislike something you dont know so well ?
so, sisters are not so amazing vocals, but they were good enough
music, staging and everything else wasnt so amazing but it was good enough
BUT ! the most beautiful thing ever was the lyrics and the story behind their song !
it just brings me to the edge of tears every time i listen, who ever wrote that song, i really admire your heart
its a HUGE masterpiece ! and thank you !
Germany should keep him, and this song (hopefully)
Netherlands, Spain , Malta,Greece, Ukraine and Croatia (I guess) already announced that they will be sending the same artists,
And yes, he was chosen internally,
how about doing reactions to the released songs? Because i think, that these participants are also a part of Eurovision...
a good pop song
I understand that they cancelled it in May......but we still have plans for the Junior Eurovision 2020 end of November and the big venue in Poland. Why don't they do the ESC 2020 together with the JESC 2021? First week they could do the JESC and right after that they can do the 2 weeks of ESC in the same venue and the Netherland could host the ESC 2021.
Er, and if they do that, when does the winner in Poland get to host?
@@FarmerScarlett - the winner (from the adult ESC) will not host the next year - BUT will get the spot for the next Grand Final in 2021.
georgia next pls
What you think if this epidemy will end make Eurovision in Poland with Junior Eurovision.
Eurovision Go _A "Solovey" UA 2020 Reaction??? Please)))
I like Germany and I know it's most people's Big 5 favorite...not to me though because I only remember it when I hear it, I tend to forget its existence when it's not playing, when I see people talking about it, I tend to not remember what it sounds like...so I've reach the conclusion that it was generic and felt like any random mainstream songs.

I think the humiliation of the zero point from the public made Germany do the change between this year and last year. It's a good move.
Have you heard the news? Eurovision is canceled 😭😭😭
