İts a shame that neither Chiara nor Ira Losco have won the contest. Malta deserved this couple of times more than many other countries. Hope they can manage this in near future.
Breathlessly gives me such good vibes I don’t know (especially the studio version) it reminds me of the songs I would hear as a very young child. Like a song that my mom would have on cassette and when she would put on our player so I could fall asleep. I can’t hate the song just for that. It makes me so calm and nostalgic. I get the same thing from Nocturne as well.
Love this, thank you for taking your time and review all the Maltese entries! I love our talent! And everyone there takes eurovision so seriously, we just LOVE IT! You can see, all the contestants have so much fun :)

It is great to see you so into this, Matt 😁 I wish you and your team a happy new year and I am really looking forward to seeing your ESC-coverage in 2019 🤩
While I can‘t agree with you concerning Chiara (sorry ☺️) I do agree that the early 90s were absolutely great. Malta‘s best entries. I LOVE 1991-1995! Vertigo 2007 should‘ve qualified (love it) and my guilty pleasure‘s „I do“ (2006) 😄 One of my favourites is 2014 too. Voted a lot for it that night.
I really like your reactions to the entries from Malta. I do share many of your thoughts. My opinion: 1971: 08p, cute and happy 1972: 05p, not my cup of tea 1975: 07p, well this was quite happy and joyful 1991: 10p, a strong song, well performed 1992: 10p, back in the 70’s, this would’ve won 1993: 08p, cool and nice 1994: 10p, feeling good and a catchy chorus 1995: 12p, a very good song and a strong performance 1996: 06p, chocked that she was so young. Nice song but bad performed 1997: 10p, I loved this song back in 1997 1998: 12p, love this performance. An evergreen 1999: 02p, very bad, 2000: 12p, love this. So catchy! 2001: 08p, cute and catchy 2002: 12p, Great performance, great song 2003: 06p, a bit old fashioned 2004: 05p, funny but not that great 2005: 12p, This should’ve won. Great! 2006: 01p, Bad, bad, bad 2007: 10p, I liked this song. Powerful! 2008: 06p, okay 2009: 08p, not that great. Like a Disneysong 2010: 08p, quite nice song, good performance 2011: 04p, nope, quite bad 2012: 05p, nope, so average 2013: 12p, loved this song from the first time I heard this 2014: 12p, Loved this too, hundred year memory for the WW1 2015: 05p, okay, but very average 2016: 10p, great performance, but average song 2017: 10p, cute song 2018: 08p, didn’t love this, but well performed
My favourite song from Malta is My Dream. Such a catchy, yet powerful song. Sometimes I put this song on repeat for an hour; I love it that much. Other great songs are Walk On Water (so sad about the terrible staging) & This is the Night.
The best entry of Malta was in 2018. The song "Taboo" is one of my fave songs of Euro♡ision 2018. The song speak about animals and don't went in Final? ♡ 🇲🇹
Malta is a very good country in ESC. For me is one of the countries that should have won a lot of times!!!! My favourites entries 1998 (Chiara what else??? My Winner) 2002 (Ira losco Is Ira Losco) 2005 (Chiara was better the My country Greece!) 2009 (Chiara Again, so my 2nd though) 2010 (Definitely a qualify) 2015 (Amber was amazing! How it didn't qualify??) 2018 (Break the TABOO and let Malta win with Chiara) 2019 (Really catchy, a song that can make you dance!!) They didn't have the best songs, but they have true Masterpieces!
Honestly, somehow Malta's songs just go pass me - never quite spark my interest enough, I'm like "meh average" and I feel that the songs are missing smt, but I occassionally enjoy Walk on Water and Breathlessly.
Hopefully Michaela Pace will come away with the Galway Crystal Pill Mike in TA in May! YOu still hope to meet Chiara and I still hope to meet Lena as well.
I was on the UK Jury in 2000 and gave Claudette a high mark. Great song.
İts a shame that neither Chiara nor Ira Losco have won the contest. Malta deserved this couple of times more than many other countries. Hope they can manage this in near future.
I love when you do these kind of videos
I do too! Will there be more videos like this soon? I love them!!!

My top 10:
1st 1992 Mary Spiteri - Little Child
2nd 2012 Kurt Calleja - This Is The Night
3rd 1995 Mike Spiteri - Keep Me In Mind
4th 1993 William Mangion - This Time
5th 2002 Ira Losco - 7th Wonder
6th 2000 Claudette - Desire

8th 2009 Chiara - What If We
9th 1996 Miriam Christine - In A Woman's Heart
10th 1991 Paul and Georgina - Could It Be?
I'd have to add Chiara's "Angel" to that list somewhere...and it'd be pretty high up there. She's definitely one of my favourite singers.
I love 'Tomorrow'!
YESS IT'S BACK! My favourite is 1971, such a lovely song. It's iconic in Malta :)
My favourites are come home and tomorrow
It is great to see you so into this, Matt 😁
I wish you and your team a happy new year and I am really looking forward to seeing your ESC-coverage in 2019 🤩

Malta didn't win 2019 Eurovision , but you can still come visit our country! :)
Your opinion, Matt, are spot on, I think. I agree with all of them, maybee except for 1997. I liked that one.
My favourite song from Malta is My Dream. Such a catchy, yet powerful song. Sometimes I put this song on repeat for an hour; I love it that much. Other great songs are Walk On Water (so sad about the terrible staging) & This is the Night.
I want to see Chiara back in Eurovision. I love her❤️
if she had done the dance remix version it would have won, it is 1000% better than the slow version she did
The best entry of Malta was in 2018. The song "Taboo" is one of my fave songs of Euro♡ision 2018. The song speak about animals and don't went in Final? ♡ 🇲🇹
I think that too!
It was underrated!
The song was about mental illness, and kind of insulting towards animals.
Love the video but you had an incorrect answer :claudia has tried 10 times to represent Malta not 42
Well, it was a joke. I figured it wasn't that high :) I'm the master of exaggeration.
Oh ok
Sorry
Thankyou for the video
My favourite entry is 1997.It is very unique
If you are coming to malta come in summer
lynn chircop actually was playing the piano
2011 i really agree with you!! Judges voting ruined everything for sure!! Finally was such a beautiful song
This year the singer was chosen from X-Factor Malta.
I'm from malta ✌🏼
Malta is a very good country in ESC. For me is one of the countries that should have won a lot of times!!!! My favourites entries
1998 (Chiara what else??? My Winner)
2002 (Ira losco Is Ira Losco)
2005 (Chiara was better the My country Greece!)
2009 (Chiara Again, so my 2nd though)

They didn't have the best songs, but they have true Masterpieces!
You typed 1871 in the description instead of 1971.
What, you didn't like their 1871 entry? (Fixed!!!!)
@@ESCunited 😂
Honestly, somehow Malta's songs just go pass me - never quite spark my interest enough, I'm like "meh average" and I feel that the songs are missing smt, but I occassionally enjoy Walk on Water and Breathlessly.
I wonder if Mary Spiteri is related to Mary Spiteri
Caudette Pace is now a politician
2006 Malta sounded so so mutch like Sweden 2003
Come to Malta 🇲🇹
Hopefully Michaela Pace will come away with the Galway Crystal Pill Mike in TA in May! YOu still hope to meet Chiara and I still hope to meet Lena as well.
React to Romania songs from 2019 Selectia Nationala. They just came out.
When will be Poland ?
I'm from malta
1999 Laurence Grey should have represented Malta with right time that was good song
Taboo should've qualified in my view. Disagree with you there.
I'm still so angry that Ira losco didn't win that year, It was better than Latvia that year even though Latvia was in my top 10
I am Maltese my Daughter is singer. Would you like a gift of a Maltese American girl singing to you. Why I am proud you like MALTA. Choose song.
Malta has so many terrible entries in Eurovision.
Not true
