Russia has had some awesome entries - Alsou, Dima Bilan, Sergey Lazarev, Polina Gagarina, Manizha, Dina Garipova, Tatu… I hope the war ends soon and they come back. Greetings from Serbia

2009 singer is actually from Ukraine and she was singing the song half in Russian and half in Ukrainian language. You should react to the full live performance, I think it’s a little creepy. I mean that video behind her
the whole song is literally "mum, you said me so" and she LITERALLY transformed into her mum in desperate and doomed repetative faith. It`s awfull and "make suicide" song about death and "nothing will never change"
Her performance with this song in National selection was better. But I can agree that performance at Eurovision was kinda creepy. But song is amazing, one of my favourite of Russia at Eurovision
Just to note, if countries didn't do well enough in the 90's points-wive, five countries had to leave the show for next year to let other poor-placing countries take part the year before it. Also, in 1996 a qualifying round was held to determine which 23 out of 30 countries would be allowed to take part. Russia in 1996 were of the whom had to stay out that year due to poor placement in the pre-qualifying round.
2017 singer withdrew because of Russo-Ukrainian war. I believe she was banned from entering Ukraine, because she had illegally travelled to Russian-annexed Crimea and held concerts there?
Honestly, I wouldn't hold it against him if he didn't loudly proclaim his support of Ukraine. It is dangerous to speak against Putin in Russia. Even if they loudly speak for Putin, people might still not support him in their hearts. It's how it works - it was how it worked during Soviet era.
@@daemonionx what???? Rusnya????? Do you know that not all people in Russia support Putin and his politics? No, you have no idea because you don’t live there. And do you how it is hard to say anything bad about his politics? Or what’s going on after people who participate in rallies? Go to hell with your anti-Russian statements, idiot. I understand the mood in the world, and yes, my close relatives are from Ukraine, but I was born in Russia. And I don’t want to apologise for that all the time. And it’s really grossly to read all these things. Politics in Russia and people from Russia are not the same thing. Alexey Navalniy is a famous Russian oppositionist and he is in prison now. Boris Nemtsov is another famous Russian oppositionist and he was killed for his position against Putin. Many people are in prison for participating in rallies. We have a dictatorship in our country. Damn, even veterans of the Second World War can be taken away by the police for participating in rallies. VETERANS OF THE SECOND WORLD WAR. So don't you dare say things like that.
Hi Dar's. I leave you my top of the ones I liked about Russia and some opinions. A greeting from Spain. 2000, 2001, 2006, 2008, 2010 (This for me was the winner of that year. I'm lovin 'it), 2016 (Sergey Lazarev was in 2016 and returned in 2019. Both times he was in 3rd place, in 2016 I gave him the winner ), 2019,.
Music-wise, they are an amazing country. They did often well in the 00's especially because of political voting (Russians living abroad) but also because they had great songs. I like Dima Bilan and Sergey Lazarev's songs, and I also like their 'piece ballads' song-wise however it's also a bit hypocrite of you ask me..Luckily a lot of these artists are also pro-ukraine and against the war (not all.. Polina gagarina?), like Manizha for example, Little Big and also the singer from 1997.
Russia Invaded Ukraine in 2014 and annexed Crimea region of Ukraine as part of Russia. In 2017 Ukraine hosted the contest and if my memory is correct the lady in the wheelchair performed in Crimea prior to the contest and caused tension and withdrew from the contest.
They wouldn't allow any Russian singer and they would find an excuse, also Russia would never think about that cringe stuff with crimea, for which Ukraine ban even their own entries almost every year
I mean imo I think Russia was testing ukraine by doing these shenanigans like: Ukriane won with a song with allusions to the 2014 invasion, and russia internally selected someone in a weelchair with a very sweet song and then had her try to enter ukraine via Crimea. I'm sorry but to me this sounds like they were planning to do this on purpose. no evidence ofc don't go screaming at me in the replies, I just think it is a bit funny how trolly they were
Despite the horrible political situation with their invasion in Ukraine, if I only look on the entries in terms to the music/melody/voices, they had some pretty good and catchy songs. But although I’m sorry for the artists, it was the right decision to ban the country. The ESC was created to promote peace and unity, to bring together countries. But you couldn’t hold a peaceful contest if a country takes part, whose government acts so violently towards another country.
That's why Armenia, Azerbaijan and Israel are participating, they never act violently to other countries) Also anyway this contest is political and you are allowed to shout any political words from the stage, even when EBU says they don't allow it, they will change their own opinion and call it humanitarian
First, looking what to do Ukraine 8 years with children in Donbass, before saying anything about this situation.... Only Russia protect them, where's Gaaga? Where's human rights?
13:01 they withdrew because Julia Samoylova entered Crimea through Ukraine, which is illegal, and Ukraine was hosting the contest that year. Due to this, Russia had to withdraw from the contest.
Russia's government is horrible as is the war but I don't think you're being disrespectful at all for doing this reaction, especially since some of the participants (ie Manizha from 2021) are against the war. Also when they were the Soviet Union they did try to enter in the 80s but it just didn't happen
@@meduzsazsa8490 yes, she said it, and she also was at a pro putin rally. And yeah it may be a posibility she is not completely free to speak but thats not an excuse, many russian artists have spoken against the war.
Russia probably won't return in near future. But if the war ends, and if they want to return, it's probably gonna happen if they pay 💸💸💸 to some Eurovision authorities 😅
Нам это не нужно. Все европейские соревнования превратились в фарс. Трансгендеры выигрывают женщин на олимпиаде, бородатые женщины поют на сцене. Россия не вернётся в этот кошмар, слава Богу принят закон, запрещающий эту содомию.
@@achnix3167 ну а чего вы хотели, почти все песни про любовь мир и веселье. Веселье у нас не в чести. Любовь - ну только традиционная. Мир - исключительно наш, а не чужой. Поэтому я абсолютно и не против, что нас выкинули ссаными тряпками, ничего интересного этот поганый режим бы туда и не послал кроме "мы все за мир, давайте любить маму и папу"
@@achnix3167 what do you want from eurovision? pretty all the songs are about peace, love and having fun(love love peace peace). Having fun is not for Russia. Love - only traditional for wife and kids, peace - only russian. For that reasons i don`t mind kicking Russia out of the contest for fuck sackes, because this god damn government will not send anythithing except "let us love each other on our terms"
It’s so cynically pro-russian polina gagarina who supports war sing about million voices. And most russian singers also support this war, so eliminate russia from ESC was right choice.
You still can watch the video and enjoy it. It's the russian government, not the russian peope at fault. They can't do anything, please understand them too and don't blame them for their leader's decisions
@@giselamesquita5124 yes, sadly... But they don't really have a choice, either they are forced to support or they are brainwashed by propaganda. It's truly horrible what these countries are going through :(
@@emilevika8621 i really try to understand that . In a certain way. Here in my country , many years from now, there are ukranians and russions living here...

You need to check out the full 2016 Sergey performance for a video, the clip doesn’t showcase just how impressive it was...
Totaly 2019 was good to

And she participated in Ukrainian selection but lost, her win in Russian selection was unfair and because of her producer in jury

You need to react to Sergei's performance (from 2016). It took me to this year to figure out how he did it!
Sergei supports Ukraine though.
