I wasn't one of the 2 people looking forward to this video because I didn't know your channel before, but after watching this hilariously narrated and edited video, for your video next year you will have a minimum of 3 people looking forward to it ;)
btw the perfomer with the most appearances in all of eurovision history is a guy named george costa, who was a backing singer for no less than 18 different entries in the 70s and 80s, even appearing 4 times in one year once
re the jury: the main issue seems to be that the people chosen for the jury are too often pop music professionals, so knowing that it's not too surprising when they reward Sweden, a country that has consistently sent well-produced pop songs. imo they need to have more people make up the jury, maybe double the size, as to account for more varied music backgrounds and jury demographics. ThePeaceAround did an incredible, super well-researched video on this, I highly recommend it
Fellow Dutchie here. Very excited, it's a very strong year. I think either Switzerland or Croatia will take it (whoever has the stronger staging, most likely). And hoping Joost will get a top 5 spot!
People seem to forget that loreen was 2nd in the televote and käärijä got more televote points then loreen got jury points so that throws the whole argument of loreen getting too many points from the jury out of the window. Also käärijä was 4th with the jury, it’s not like he got dead last. If we give the televote more power then the jury then we just go back to the awful times of the 2000s But this is one of my favourite years in over a decade. I’m honestly really happy that everyone took inspiration from käärijä since it did make the contest more interesting even though cha cha cha wasn’t my favourite sing from last year (btw neither was tattoo). And this was a really fun video to watch and it was really well made
I don't even get why the whole "everyone copies the previous year's winner" thing is something people still believe. Last year didn't have that much ethno rap in it, 2022 didn't have an increased number of rock songs (hell 2023 actually had more), 2021/2020 didn't have a noticeably higher number of sad ballads than eurovision usually has, 2019 didn't have a bunch of chicken clucking, 2018 had like.... 1 jazz song out of 43 and it had a completely different vibe than Amar Pelos Dois, 2017 like maybe you could argue had a higher number of ballads than usual but they weren't very similar to 1944, and 2016 the year you mentioned had like 2 that actually imitated sweden's staging from 2015 (come on, latvia and armenia don't count lmao you're stretching). If anything the only other entry that I can say has inspired a significant number of entries in more than just genre choice or "being more creative" is Spain 2022, last year and this year have had quite a noticeable uptick in dance breaks, and Spain didn't win in 2022.
This year is genuinely the first time I'm really rooting for Estonia, it's my 2nd place, the highest I've ever placed the country. I love the originality of the sound, never heard anything like it before in the best way possible! I'm voting from Norway
Im happy the song is in estonian and that they use the musical instrument (näeb välja nagu mingi väike kannel mdea), but the song itself really sucks and the presentation wasnt the best, they missed their notes and made several other mistakes
Je maakt je content leuker dan ik dacht, toen ik op deze video klikte dacht ik dat mijn aandachtspan dit niet aan kon allemaal te bekijken, maar is me toch gelukt Ga zo door man
I do blame unicorn for all the girly bops this year though! 😅 but I'm not complaining I do love a girly bop (Georgia is my personal favourite this year) I hope Croatia or Switzerland win though ❤
Im of the opinion that the best thing to fix the juries would be to vastly increase the size of each panel. More people, more diversity of opinions, more diverse results in theory.
14:25 Loredana Berte was asked to come participate in UVPSM after she lost Sanremo in Italy... she was allowed to use the same song she submitted to Sanremo and it was unusual for this sort of thing to happen, plus Italy had a hugely positive reaction to her and she was predicted to win Sanremo altogether (in the end she didn't even place in the Top 5), so she assumed she was just going to win UVPSM and then she got second place lmao
Also extremely funny you mentioned Sweden 2015 winning because 'everyone thought he was handsome' cause it's not the same at all as 'finland winning the televote last year' or 'italy winning because of the televote' or 'croatia being the favorite in 2024' noo.... Not at all the same... Girl are you fr?
i soooo agree with this video. literally i was so worried about this year copying tattoo and when i saw they didnt, its the best shit everrrrrrrrrrrrr kuula nüüd seda saab huugama ära meid kuulda on täna a see kott vii ära
I feel like the only one who likes Albania's song this year. I really love Besa's voice and the song is really nice! Don't think they have a change though in the second semi since it has insanely good songs.
The problem with removing the juries completely is also the way it could lead to a long-term development of the songs becoming sillier and more campy which is what happened in the 2000s.
funny video, instant subscribe. Was wondering whether the czech republic national final would be mentioned since Aiko won thanks to tens of thousands of international votes where it was possible to vote for the same artist as many times as you wanted (how the results were not scrapped in the end I will never understand)
I think it's interesting, but unfortunately my level of English doesn't allow me to understand everything, could you activate the subtitles? (even the automatic ones in English are enough)
alright but Sweden? To me this is one of their weaker entries and they will definitly not do well with the public, but juries wil probably put this quite high so I think theyll scratch the top 10 but not something to be copied for the next 20 years. Also how did we get these 2 guys over fucking Maria Sur, Dotter, Jacqline and Medina. Well anyways... we winnen de televote en we worden 3e mark my words edit: Pardon, nog n Nederlander die Estland basically als 2nd nationality heeft qua eurovision, ik zie een patroon
Btw for Estonia the only reason why 5miinust got to go to Eurovision is because of their popularity like they got 60% of the votes in the top 3 so it wasn’t even close but if they hadn’t won Ollie: my friend would have won which I personally prefer a lot more
Ok im not really a fan of Europa, No Rules and Rim tigi. It just makes me feel like its a copy of Kaarija. I dont think no rules is hype without staging its boring, europa is SO repetitive and rim is ok
How are you gonna make a video complaining about the juries and then showing benjamin ingrosso lol, he got 21 points and loreen placed second recieving votes from EACH country in the competition (except for ridiculous finland cause it's ok when finland votes strategically but not Poland, for example) just... Be for real and cope. Your taste of music doesn't always have to win. Y'all were not complaining when Duncan Laurence won and he won by not winning either jury or televote lmfao. And stop hating women. I can't believe she is the first woman to win Eurovision twice and y'all still making these videos A YEAR LATER. Cope and hire a therapist.
Being against Isreal's participation is one thing (for what it's worth I am against too), but purposely editing footage to make it look like they are not there is another, man... Loved the video otherwise !
Ahh, for the good old days where people actually just enjoyed making fun of the songs, without getting caught up in the politics. Another youtube channel to join the "do not recommend". You prefer to post an untruthful post (yes there are 37 countries participating), than be honest.
He even edited the second semi-final, that's beyond rude, no matter if you are for or against the participation of a country. That's just insulting, ptting it mildly.

agreed
4 people.
Totes
btw the perfomer with the most appearances in all of eurovision history is a guy named george costa, who was a backing singer for no less than 18 different entries in the 70s and 80s, even appearing 4 times in one year once
and the guy with the second most perfomances? thats his brother michel costa who joined george on all but one of those appearances
I really expected a joke about Sweden sending Norwegian twins
Did you see the Irish entry saying that she is the only Swede this year because she is half Swedish 😂
re the jury: the main issue seems to be that the people chosen for the jury are too often pop music professionals, so knowing that it's not too surprising when they reward Sweden, a country that has consistently sent well-produced pop songs. imo they need to have more people make up the jury, maybe double the size, as to account for more varied music backgrounds and jury demographics.

im proud of my country as an estonian just for this year
Big Esti fan over here!! I found Estonian music trough this year's Eurovision and now am a big 5miinust fan. 12 points from 🇭🇷
This year is genuinely the first time I'm really rooting for Estonia, it's my 2nd place, the highest I've ever placed the country. I love the originality of the sound, never heard anything like it before in the best way possible! I'm voting from Norway
Im happy the song is in estonian and that they use the musical instrument (näeb välja nagu mingi väike kannel mdea), but the song itself really sucks and the presentation wasnt the best, they missed their notes and made several other mistakes
9:00 I think he might’ve liked Daði Freyr’s entries to Eurovision
I think the main difference between Sweden and Germany in Eurovision is that Sweden sends the same Stuff successfully and Germany doesn't.
Also! Sweden kinda established itself as a certain powerhouse in eurovision. While germany is just known for their continuous last places and 0 points
@@anni_llm Truth. Not even we german Fans like our entry's most years.
If David gets a higher quality mic it's over for the rest of eurovision youtube
Love this, so funny and entertaining. Looking forward for more :).
Finally someone who understands what it is about, I salute you
Je maakt je content leuker dan ik dacht, toen ik op deze video klikte dacht ik dat mijn aandachtspan dit niet aan kon allemaal te bekijken, maar is me toch gelukt
Ga zo door man
im SO HYPED FOR THIS. OH MY GOSH.
Dit was een verrassend leuke video :) ik heb er echr van genoten haha
It was really interesting! Please, do more❤
I do blame unicorn for all the girly bops this year though! 😅 but I'm not complaining I do love a girly bop (Georgia is my personal favourite this year)
I hope Croatia or Switzerland win though ❤
He couldn't mention that because Israel doesn't exist for him, but you're probably right.
Im of the opinion that the best thing to fix the juries would be to vastly increase the size of each panel. More people, more diversity of opinions, more diverse results in theory.
ESTONIA HYPE🙌🙌🙌
yeeeeees
im furious about joosts disqualification

Who's the other option for the Netherlands in the video? I can't quite acoustically understand and would like to listen to the full song
10:08 what does this list of countries + Achterhoek show?
would love for Croatia to win. But my faves are Estonia, the Netherlands and Azerbaijan (followed by Greece, Armenia, Italy, Slovenia, Serbia)
hi!! just wanted to say i LOVE your editing🥹
great video!
Cool video dude
Oh, achteraf is dit zo optimistisch ingesteld en was het een complete shitshow. We love joost

Lol did u remove israel from the semi final list 😂😂😂 legend!!
Glad to hear I'm not the only one who likes the Swedish entry this year 😅
My suggestion: Keep the jury votes as they are, but cut the points in half after all jury votes have been handed out.
what's the song or the group name at 10:17?
Dit was echt grappig.
We hebben wel een nieuwe video nodig na dit fuckfest van een songfestival want wtf was dit
I feel like the only one who likes Albania's song this year.
I really love Besa's voice and the song is really nice! Don't think they have a change though in the second semi since it has insanely good songs.

the jury still exists in the final though

WELKOM IN EUROPA JONGEN
WHERES SPAIN
Croatia really got Käärijä'd
Its weird how similar all the jurys are
there are 37 entries
Automatic subscriber!
I’m Alive wasn’t a translation, it was a new song I think.
Really didn’t talk about the craziness of Croatia. Like it’s going to be the whole iceberg. Smh
"That doesn't mean Albania will 100% do bad this year"
'Comes 15/16th In the semi final 2'
david so silly >:3
Iceland underrated
You do have some balls saying Unforgettable is not the same as Sweden sends every year lol
They actually use an already existing song this year, the main line is a 1:1 copy of Salva Mea by Faithless :D
Omg this was hilarious!
Ok im not really a fan of Europa, No Rules and Rim tigi. It just makes me feel like its a copy of Kaarija. I dont think no rules is hype without staging its boring, europa is SO repetitive and rim is ok
Ah sweden send a norwegian faithless ripoff with heroes animation.
Ah, I see you fell into the BDS trap.
ESC is just to shitpost and let us cry
Nederland ging van mensen die deden alsof ze konden zingen naar iemand die niet eens de schijn doet voorhouden.
I disagree about Estonia last year being deserved that song was a snoozefest.
You sir, have no feelings.
@@ThaGamingMisfit It's m'am and yes I do it's just Bridges doesn't trigger them unless you count boredom.
Israel there, we boycott. end of
2021 was amazing, unless three years is a LOOOONG time for you (2022 and 2023 were absolute dogshit tho so maybe it does seem that way)

israel is the best
No
There is country named israel
It’s 37, not 36 countries participating. Just like in 2023
He fell for anti Israel propaganda.
Israel doesn't exist for him because he obviously know everything about that conflict as a Dutch youtuber with a big mouth.
Ahh, for the good old days where people actually just enjoyed making fun of the songs, without getting caught up in the politics. Another youtube channel to join the "do not recommend".

Israel should have won this year
.
They didn't and we are all happy about it
Israel came 5th 😍
There are 37 songs. Grow up.
There’s 36 and something that sounds like an asthma attack. Fixed it for you 😊
There's 36 songs and a genocide anthem :)
Oh, achteraf is dit zo optimistisch ingesteld en was het een complete shitshow. We love joost
