    So happy for all the qualifiers, but sad for Iru and Georgia 😢

      on behalf of the Poles, I ask you not to vote for our representative.
      blanka supports Russia's aggression.
      she defends her brother, who insults Ukrainians and calls for war.
      she got into Eurovision unfairly and we Poles do not support her.

    They are not red flags, they are handkerchieves. Traditionally part of clothing is used as an accessory in Middle East and the Balkans during folk dances.
    Being from Greece I didn't thought people will not get that 😂

      It's always so interesting to see countries sharing some elements of each other's culture. "Mandili" in Georgian also means a small piece of textile that is part of the traditional costumes. According to old tales, if two men were fighting and a woman threw a mandili between them, they needed to stop fighting.

    Hi Georgina! I am a big albanian fan of your videos, and I just wanted to clear out the confusion on the red flags. The red colour represents the country's flag since the 15th century, it's a colour that characterises our country; meanwhile the hand movements simply symbolise waving the flag while holding tightly onto it with pride. Here in Albania it's a common joyful move which represents the love and pride which comes from being albanian.

    I'm happy for all those who qualified, they all did an amazing job!! But I'm so sad for Iru, imo her performance was one of the best last night and she totally deserved the final 😢

  • @ot4454
    @ot4454 ปีที่แล้ว +30

    Thats not a red flag. Thats the way we dance in Albania. Its more a traditional thing.

    • @misiek_xp4886

    Great analysis as always, Georgina, and wonderful to hear about your experience at the semifinal. My opinions might differ from yours on some songs, but that's the great thing about music and art, different opinions are encouraged, and I definitely respect yours 🙂

  • @groverdee66
    @groverdee66 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Interesting perspective about live performances. I loved Cyprus going into the semis. It sounds like television sound didn’t do it justice because I was disappointed and you thought it went pretty well. Opposite seems to happen with Poland. Broadcast sound was actual really good, but nort so much in the arena.

  • @dipszi49
    @dipszi49 ปีที่แล้ว

    Georgina, so nice to see you fulfill a dream and got there, having fun and seeing this whole contest live! I would love to experience as well, not cause the look but the atmosphere from the contestants and the fans. Thanks for the ESC videos, have a great Final. :)

    I love to hear your thoughts on the performances! Especially because I don't really have any professional knowledge in that field and always wonder what people with actual experience think of ESC songs. Can't wait to see the big show tonight! Greetings from Austria 😄

  • @williamody8406
    @williamody8406 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Hi Georgina, considering your saw this semifinal live. Was there anyone who didn’t qualify, who you thought deserved to. Or did you think everyone that made it deserved it! ❤

  • @Leena79
    @Leena79 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'm from Finland, and like pretty much everyone around here, we're are just super proud of Käärijä and what an amazing job he is doing at the ESC - his song is so very Finnish.
    I was rooting for Slovenia and Australia, it was great to see them qualify. I wasn't a fan of Estonia before, but after that performance yesterday, I think she was amazing (and miles ahead of any of the other female singers).

  • @henriisaj
    @henriisaj ปีที่แล้ว +30

    The red flags that albina and her family held in their hands are an albanian traditional flag when we dance our traditional songs that we call “Valle” Albania was amazing, fav performance well deserved!

  • @bernadot5024
    @bernadot5024 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    ESC must be experienced live to sense how much better it is than on TV. The vocals are often better and the less good singers which are the minority sounding worse live.
    But not many famous stars and bands are singing that good. I am glad you could feel the vibe and atmosphere and appreciating your comments. Will France win?

  • @Afer-Dita-

    Georgina! So glad to hear your positive response to Austria! From our tv, it seemed to be so less energetic than say the video....their choreography just seems lacking....I hope they might ramp it up a bit for tomorrow because I'd really love for them to do well! Thank you for being our eyes and ears on the ground! So happy you had a good time! 💕💕from the U.S.!

  • @rexhepkameraj6733
    @rexhepkameraj6733 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi, Georgina! Thank you for the review. The handkerchieves you saw in Albania’s performance are an integral element of the traditional Albanian dance, the dance performed by Albina and her family on stage. So that dance break represented peak Albanian culture, and everyone here in Albania and Kosovo appreciated it.

    the red handkerchief we use them at the weddings and dances its a tradition thing we can't dance without it lol i know other Balkan countries have traditional dances but I think Albanians are the only ones that use those when dancing if I'm correctly ? By the way we can wave anything we have in hands its doesn't necessary have to be red or handkerchief 🤣😂🥰

  • @eviad4827

    @keyshia89 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I like watching your videos but I think you should be honest with the UK entry... Although the song is a cool radio song, the live perfomance was really poor. Not sure if she would qualify if it had to be in the semi finals. Definitely the worst live performence of the night (unfortunately as I really like the song). Interesing that she will be singing as the last one in the final. Not sure if that will help her or the opposite.

  • @andreasa8486
    @andreasa8486 ปีที่แล้ว

    Every youtuber using Cyprus song as an example to say that all artists are using backup help. Andrew Lambrou sang this song live and acoustic many times without a microphone and nailed every note. OF COURSE every artist is using back up vocals and support and many songs you can even hear 2 voices at the same time during head voice parts. Double standards unfortunately.
