Alcazar don't look too different from when they were in the charts. Bjorn is now 79 and ABBA have made it quite clear they want to be remembered as they were in their 1970s peak (hence the Abbatar show).
What a missed opportunity...!!! Really, a full set by Alcazar would have been one of the best interval acts ever. They completely slayed in just two and a half minutes..
Easily the highlight of the night for me. Alcazar were incredible and such good sports! Crying at the Discotheque will always be an absolute banger of a track! ❤
It's telling that something written over 40s years ago sounds better than anything in the entire competition. Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards are legends
Love Alcazar, cant stop watching this, takes me back to my teens and 20's dancing at the disco every night. love it. shame they cut the end of the song like that, best part of eurovision and they chopped it like that. sacrilege.
Omg, what a great surprise! I saw them during their goodbye concert in Stockholm, so I was shocked to see them reunite. Great performance of an iconic song! 🤩
When i was 18 years old,back to 2001!!! all radio stations and clubs of greece were playing this song all the time!!! Wonderful song!!! Many memories!!! I was very happy when i heard it at the eurovision song contest last night!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
@@nidget To be fair that's actually a completely different arrangement. Sure, they share the base, but that would be like saying that "Superfreak" by Rick James and "U can't Touch this" by MC Hammer are the same song.
Lyrics: Se non spendi in cul lo prendi Inevitabile Con zio Peppe carta gialla Con lo shoppino gemme comprerai e poi non perdi mai Con zio Peppe ciò s'avvera Le gemme di qua E l'oro di là Livella tutte le carte qua Così ce la fai Sei forte oramai You got me crying out Crying out for Postepay Crying out for Postepay You got me crying You got me crying for the bancomat You got me crying You got me crying for the Postepay
It dates from 1979, written and composed by the musicians of the American group Chic ("the freak") for the French singer Sheila who created it (under the title "Spacer"). So it's a Franco-American song...
Wow their energy is unmatched! What a great performance! Too bad they cut it short, this song deserved the full length! Great memories! Amazing performance!
I once met the guy from this band (Andreas) at a club night. We have a mutual friend who introduced us. He super nice IRL! Great to see him and his Alcazar bandmates back for this special occasion. Congrats!
It was definitely part of the act, Swedish humour/playing with expectations that what everyone was expecting to see was an appearance by ABBA. I think that joke fell slightly flat given Alcazar’s performance was fantastic and their live song was a total bop but it was cut short for a promo clip from ABBA Voyage and an underproduced and comparatively underwhelming karaoke version of Waterloo that didn’t really do justice to ABBA’s original.
@@SuperSagittaria Thanks. I am sure I have seen a concert clip where Alcazar kept this song going for over five minutes ........ and it still wasn't long enough for me 🙂 p.s. In the U.K. this song became a lockdown anthem in 2020 when Sophie Ellis-Bextor did a 3 minute 50 second, cover version to try and cheer people up during lockdown. Check out the Official Video here on TH-cam to see what you think.
This was so nostalgic and for me the highlight of this show, brings back childhood memories ❤️ I love Swedish music from that time 🇸🇪 Love from Finland 🇫🇮❤️
I got goosebumps when the song started but also need to see some love for the dancer looking at the camera 0:13! She brings so much energy to the performance!!!
Amazing performance - always loved this song and was covered in goosebumps watching them perform. TOTALLY here for the gold outfits! They looked fantastic and great stage coreography! Bravo!
I don't know about you but i was dancing so hard on my chair at this moment, such a pleasure! I was so excited to see them, cause i have this song in my track list. I wish they could sing a little bit longer to be honest.
"YOU REUNITED ABBA?!"
"No! I reunited Alcazar!"
I like Alcazar more than ABBA.
@@Paulxl Who the heck is Alcazar 🤧
@@Paulxlmaybe I like more too, but seems they are known for this hit only while ABBA have more than a fist or two of hits
Alcazar don't look too different from when they were in the charts. Bjorn is now 79 and ABBA have made it quite clear they want to be remembered as they were in their 1970s peak (hence the Abbatar show).
@@fabiumtaurinorum5573 They were huge in the early 2000's
The best thing about Eurovision this year!
I agree! This event is getting
worse, and worse every year! So
Sad! Greetings from Sweden!
Totally agree!
Ha ha ha !
YESSSS!🕺
Right 👍
the single moment when you feel 100% European
gey moment
I always feel 100% European, but you're right. I felt extra proud during this 🇮🇪🇪🇺
Thank you! This!
As someone who grew up with this blast from 2000, this was a pleasing surprise and the highlight of the show imo.
Love you Alcazar.
👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 ❤
It’s so emotional to finally watch Alcazar perform at Eurovision! True Eurovision fandom legends ❤❤❤
What a missed opportunity...!!! Really, a full set by Alcazar would have been one of the best interval acts ever. They completely slayed in just two and a half minutes..
Alcazar have to come back to eurovision. Love it from spain ❤️🇸🇪🇪🇸
Alcazar 700 points!!!
I instantly started crying. My youth, right there, when everything was beautiful and fun and I had my entire life ahead of me…
Oh, nostalgia 😢
To były przeboje😊❤ ,
nie co teraz się dzieje na Eurowizji 😢👎🥴, nie da się słuchać,a na pewno oglądać !
Now it's over for me and it's over for you!
Easily the highlight of the night for me. Alcazar were incredible and such good sports! Crying at the Discotheque will always be an absolute banger of a track! ❤

Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards are legends
I guess you're referring to Spacer.
@@The-Endungeoned The tune is brilliant irrespective of the lyrics over it.
@@The-Endungeoned search for Sexual Guarantee by Alcazar, based on Chic 'My Forbidden Lover.'
Very glad I grew up when disco came around :)
Is 2001 again
I still love Alcazar and this song
It's a great song.
@@Paulxl That may be, but it's super unoriginal.
@@close_all_tabs The song is more almost 25 years old. Sure it has been done to death since.
Listen to Sheila. The original
@@close_all_tabsils savent bouger au moins et ça a mis l'ambiance dsl j'adore
Best song of the night by far
The best moment in the show of ESC 2024
I started CRYING MY EYES OUT when they came out. They sound just like 25 years ago!!! I loved them
Best performance of the Eurovision. FABULOUS❤
Love Alcazar, cant stop watching this, takes me back to my teens and 20's dancing at the disco every night. love it. shame they cut the end of the song like that, best part of eurovision and they chopped it like that. sacrilege.

They reunite for a bottle of wine 🙂
When i was 18 years old,back to 2001!!! all radio stations and clubs of greece were playing this song all the time!!! Wonderful song!!! Many memories!!! I was very happy when i heard it at the eurovision song contest last night!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
The original title is "Spacer" from Sheila
Лучшее что было на этом шоу! Очень рад воссоединению Alcazar!
Europe's disco hymn, this song gets better and better!
2024 and i still rock this song everyday in my saab !
2:09 Yes, this was SO FIRE, they have to bring the fire extinguisher.
I've only ever heard that on the radio as a child. Kinda unreal to see it live xD
Ever heard "Spacer" from Sheila ?
@@nidget Nope, never did before
@@Kyrmanathat's the original tune, by Niles Rodgers.
@@nidget To be fair that's actually a completely different arrangement. Sure, they share the base, but that would be like saying that "Superfreak" by Rick James and "U can't Touch this" by MC Hammer are the same song.
@@TucoBenedicto oh they arent? 🤭🤭
Surely one of the best-ever tracks. (Along with Spacer from Shiela B. Devotion, of course!)
Pure goosebumps!
the best performance of the night by far what Eurovision used to full of fun
Bravo Alcazar!!! Mais quelle prestation !!! On a tout de suite envie de danser comme des fous!! Ambiance de folie, interprétation impeccable!! Bravo!
Best moment of the night ❤❤❤
This song has literally been stuck in my head since last night! Capital T Tuuuune!
I love Alcazaaaar! They couldn’t miss an Eurovision in Sweden! ❤🪩🇸🇪
Deserved it 100% to preform there. Amazing
This performance blew me away, I didn't expect this at all
Blew all the other attempts away. Quality.
this one should win 100500% 😁
Impossible because they didn't create the music. ;)
Dammit Sweden know how to make a party.
I love everything about it.
THIS SHOULD HAVE WON.
I had never heard of these people but this was a bop 🕺🪩
Lyrics:
Se non spendi in cul lo prendi
Inevitabile
Con zio Peppe carta gialla
Con lo shoppino gemme comprerai e poi non perdi mai
Con zio Peppe ciò s'avvera
Le gemme di qua
E l'oro di là
Livella tutte le carte qua
Così ce la fai
Sei forte oramai
You got me crying out
Crying out for Postepay
Crying out for Postepay
You got me crying
You got me crying for the bancomat
You got me crying
You got me crying for the Postepay
Basato
MI SENTO MALE, CERCAVO UN COMMENTO SIMILE AHAHAHA
Best song in the competition LOL
It dates from 1979, written and composed by the musicians of the American group Chic ("the freak") for the French singer Sheila who created it (under the title "Spacer"). So it's a Franco-American song...
Yes.... TBH I knew Sheila's version of Spacer for a long time....
Wow their energy is unmatched! What a great performance! Too bad they cut it short, this song deserved the full length! Great memories! Amazing performance!
Raiven Slovenia is true Winner!
Best performance by a country mile.
Best performance of the night.
The Winner!
“Crying at the Eurovision”! The performance was so good! Congrats Alcazar!!!
Crying watching crying at the discotheque, true music😊
0:52 Just listen to the incredible vocals! Amazing!!!
I once met the guy from this band (Andreas) at a club night. We have a mutual friend who introduced us. He super nice IRL! Great to see him and his Alcazar bandmates back for this special occasion. Congrats!
I have to say, this is what saved ECS this year. Alcazar Forever
Whaou they bring that 20year old song from the grave, but it's still a masterpiece ❤
So great to see Alcazar back, if only for this performance! Shame they were cut short 😕
What happened there? I still can't work out if it was part of the act or something really went wrong.
It was definitely part of the act, Swedish humour/playing with expectations that what everyone was expecting to see was an appearance by ABBA.

@@MrDunclidem ! Ce fut très frustrant !!!
@@MrDunclmerci de l info ❤
This was such an unexpected surprise. I couldnt believe it when they announced Alcazar. What a blast from the past.
What a performance!!! Best moment in the show!!
This was so nostalgic and for me the highlight of this show, brings back childhood memories ❤️ I love Swedish music from that time 🇸🇪 Love from Finland 🇫🇮❤️
I went nuts on the couch when I heard the first beat! My teenage MTV/Viva/Bravo years came back instantly... 😂
This was one of the genuine highlights of the whole week. 🕺
It’s a classic, and I’m a teenager again 😍
We can dance all night with this song!
LOVE IT❤
0:12 This dancer lady is vibing with this song, I just know it somehow.
The highlight of the night!!!! Awesome!!!
I was so happy to saw them. Pure gold!
Again so good live singing then, thanks🎤👍 I hope that Alcazar make a new song.
I have always loved this song, it never gets old. _Let tears of joy baptise the crowd!_
Bard has always been blasphemous... in all his songs. He's been like Jacob "wrestling with God" for his whole life. I hope he gets his blessing too.
12 points all the way what a band❤❤❤
Absolutely wonderful, best thing about Eurovision this year 👏 loved it ❤️
Best moment of the night BY FAR.
Best song of the night by far...
I LOVE❤ ALCAZAR🎉FROM ITALY😊PEACE AND LOVE....ALWAYS!
In Italia questa canzone è nota solo per una ragione
Easily easily the best song of the night
Le meilleur moment de l’Eurovision 2024 à Malmö 😊

A lot of love from Japan❤❤❤❤
Best moment of the evening! One thing, where was Army of Lovers? The other "A"? That would've been totally legendary ❤️
Amazing disco music that makes me dancing 😊
Surely one of the best-ever songs.
I got goosebumps when the song started but also need to see some love for the dancer looking at the camera 0:13! She brings so much energy to the performance!!!

And they are looking so good and handsome! Unbelievable after over 20 years!!!
Ladies still look gorgeous

ICONIC 🪩🧡
Alcatraz was the best thing this year in Eurovision !!!❤❤❤❤
TERRIBLE ENDING with bad attempt to make a joke. If the song ended normally, it would be SUCH A. BIG MOMENT!!!!!
Agreed, the presenters ruined it.
The management was so eager to save time they decapitated one its greatest crowd pleaser 🫠
the only hit there,back in the time when music was a earworm
I can hear it again again !!!!🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷
I don't know about you but i was dancing so hard on my chair at this moment, such a pleasure! I was so excited to see them, cause i have this song in my track list. I wish they could sing a little bit longer to be honest.
This was AMAZING!!!! ❤
They are always a guarantee!!!!❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
Masterpiece
Loved it! Took me back to the good old days❤️
HOW DID I NOT HEARABOUT THIS UNTIL NOW?!?!
I LOVE this song! It would've been worth tuning in just to see this ❤
Best song of 2024 contest.
A truly great dance/pop song. One of the best.
Definitely a vibe for 2024
