Ireland is completely next lvl quality, its not just a song its a full on performance, a movie. Cam angles, effects, acting everything was so perfect,so much work went into this. totally amazing, this deserves to win.
Technically speaking, this is the greatest thing to ever grace an ESC stage. The color pallet, costumes, choreography, cinematography and editing are next level. All the closeups made it feel very intimate and emotional. Notice that we never get a wide shot showing the audience. For three minutes you’re completely transported to someplace that’s both scary and beautiful. A masterpiece.
Exactly that. All the close-ups and emotions portrayed - feels like a MV not a live performance. You would forget the audience is there. No wide shots of the audience until the final chorus is incredibly impactful
@@waffleweave solid when she actually sang, which was not very often. That screaming would give most people goosebumps, of the wrong kind. Screaming is not singing and this is a song competition, not a screaming or a performance competition.
I have to tell you, it was SO LOUD in the arena for Bambie! Literally everytime the recap came up, giant cheers. The cheers after their performance were so LOUD and went for so long!! #CrownTheWitch
that might be the best staging i've ever seen at eurovision. it blew my mind. 250+ televote points incoming. it's extraordinary that they took a song like this and turned it into an absolute masterpiece on stage.
That was a whole broadway production. EVERYTHING was utter perfection. The CAMERA WORK! The costumes, the make up, the choreography! Bambie just set a new bar for cinematic levels of performance
The storyline is that we’re harmed by an old boyfriend so they try and create a new boyfriend but it goes wrong and they make a monster. So they pretend to love the monster, trick it and they destroy it: they’re a good witch. Importantly tho, it’s just a performance it’s not real. 😅
IT IS REAL AND SERIOUS SATANISM ! Don’t be so ignorant. She is a true satanic witch! They are putting right in front of our faces and people still think it is not real! WAKE UP!
And yet others can also see every medium has been hijacked. From online platforms to soaps and films to almost the entirety of the music and art industries… all of them ram the current messaging down our throats 24/7, regardless of apparent cover stories. We’re used to it. Doesn’t detract from the artistry involved, but it detracts from the integrity and the longevity, of artists who allow themselves to take part, because all politically motivated messaging is finite, it gets old and toxic very quickly. Love to all involved. Hope we can sort this mess out.
This will never be the kind of song I would listen to but damn was that Performance amazing. They killed it in every second. Respect to the irish witch 🔥
Been watching Eurovision on and off since Johnny Logan's second victory - yep, that long ago. Bambie Thug's performance for Ireland is the best I've seen, bar none.
This deserves to win for originality alone. Croatia is great and amazing performance but we’ve heard it all before. Something about this song represents the colour and divergence of the world we live in. I also think Bambie is an outstanding artist who deserves all the acclaim they are now receiving 🇨🇮💚🤍🧡🇨🇮
My husband and I are American but I have been watching Eurovision for a few years and finally got him into it. I reacted like the fellow in yellow and my husband was 100% the guy in orange 🤣🤣🤣
I was 30% the Polish guy BEFORE the semi, and then fully the yellow shirt guy but I come back to this review of our performance as it brings me joy that this kind of 'Ouija pop' as I've always loved the pagan roots of Ireland, has a place at Eurovision. Amazing so many viewers got to see us send a shock this year, I love the polish fella who's jaw legit drops at that intense and iconic image of Bambie following the costume change. Superb performance for Ireland we came 6th so I'm chuffed. 😳🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
The performance ranks among the greatest in Eurovision history, alongside classics like "Rise Like a Phoenix" and "Riverdance." From start to finish, it captivated me; every second was enthralling. Initially overlooked in a simple studio setting in Ireland, Bambie Thug's performance mesmerized TV audiences. It stands head and shoulders above other acts this year, truly on another level.
Irelands entry ‘Bambie Thug’ was simply amazing, she even showed a snippet of ballet in her feast for the eyes & ears performance. She certainly has a lot of talent. Winning Entry Maybe?Can’t wait for Saturday!!
I absolutely love the shot of Bambie at 1:55. Perfection! My reaction when hearing the song on Monday was "WTF?!". Then I saw the show on Wednesday (Svtplay) and burst out "WTH?!". But it is definitely growing on me and I will be very upset if Bambie doesn't finish at least top 5. Preferably winner! 💙💜💙💜
I hadn't seen the previous staging. When we saw it yesterday we were speechless.. THE BEST PRESENTATION BY FAR..... It was an audio-visual masterpiece. A living horor and multi-meaning mini-movie!!!! Many grats from a Greek.
Hahahaha I love that the guy in the middle is SO into it from the very beginning, the guy on the right seems shocked at first but by the end he's also totally into it, while the guy on the left apparently just can't believe his eyes for the whole thing and does NOT seem convinced lol I think your reactions are actually a pretty accurate representation of how this song will be received in the GF: It's the kind of performance that people either REALLY like or REALLY dislike, so we'll just have to wait and see how that plays out in the voting!
😂😂😂😂 Definitely i am the guy with brown t-shirt .. I n sorry i don't know your name but I LOVE YOU ... Your reaction is all the money (as we say in Greece 🤣🤣🤣)
I’m still recovering… that was a legendary performance! Loved every second of it, very curious how well they will do in the final. And so happy that Portugal also made it!
That was kind of how I reacted. I have watched Eurovision since the 90´2 but never ever seen something like that where the staging makes you hooked for every single second and you get in a kind of shock state. It is so damn brilliant you want to rise up and applaude. This will do very well.I had my mouth open all the time. It felt like my mind was blown.
...have to say IT...DEAR TOY and GOY...that IT was the BEST REACTION for me to this GRAND-WITCH-BRILLIANT SHOW from the IRELAND in the Eurovision Song contest!!! i felt about the same...when i saw it !!!...Have laughed to tears with YR REACTIONS!!!😇😇😇💎💎💎♥♥♥
I loved the performance. In fact I keep rewatching it compulsively since last night. I am a little worried about your friend on the left hand side, he looked like he wants to start praying:)
dying at this reaction..the sparkly beard, the guy who doesn't know wtf is going on and the one on the left who is stone faced throughout the whole thing lmaoo
So true. I remember that performance on the show with Patrick Kielty, I think and it looked like an ambitious song that likely won't be translated well enough for Eurovision. But my gosh, they knocked it out of the park! So happy to be proven wrong about it.
Best Eurovision performance in decades - Bambie, every Goth and alternative soul in the world is insanely proud of you!🇮🇪🧙♀️👑🖤 This is theatrical extravaganza, a storytelling experience in 3 minutes, a journey that casts a spell over the viewer just like Bambie is evoking enchantment on stage - and on top of that a once-in-a-lifetime performer, an addictively refreshing song without boundaries, and a staging that doesn't only captivate the dark souls who feel drawn to witchcraft anyway, but also the masses who have no choice but crowning the witch! Bambie is not only an artist who renders me speechless on a daily basis, but also a heartwarming human being who can make countless hearts jump for joy with their infectious smile. This is a performance that will be eternally engraved in the history books, and I will rewatch it over and over again until my last breath on earth!🖤✨️🌙
Guys, this is exactly why I love watching your reactions - for your emotions! I love and laughed so hard at your reaction! 😂😂😂 ps. The guy on the left is so sweet and he was so shocked after this performance😂❤
They were my favorite from the beginning, but this blew me away!! So many people wrote them off, but this was a LIVE PERFORMANCE! I knew once I saw this that they were gonna qualify or i wasnt gonna watch esc again lol Absolute masterpiece!
Best staging ever! So theatrical. I was captured and in awe throughout. The ending so powerful. If Ireland wins, Eurovision may change visually in future and become more direct and personal, like looking sth at your cellphone. No more wide stages and takes.
I am in shock/love with her performance. IT is SOO provoking and artistic and Real and gut everything , takes your breath away and holds you captive. HAHAH I cannot get over the reaction of you three, so perfect, LOVE it, I could watch your reaction video over and over.
My reaction was just like the person in the middle, just excited the entire way through! My two sisters would probably be just like the other two 😅, one baffled but excited at the end, and one wanting to not be there anymore 😂
Let us know what you thought about Ireland Performance.
I was the whole performance 😳😵💫👀 what I am watching and listening. Was just noise for me.
Your reaction ATE. Loved it.
The performance is good, the song is the worst song I ever heard in Eurovision
Stunning 😍
awesome!! Ireland must win!
Ireland is completely next lvl quality, its not just a song its a full on performance, a movie. Cam angles, effects, acting everything was so perfect,so much work went into this. totally amazing, this deserves to win.
It is HORRIBLE, satanist in ESC?! I HATE THEM
You are so right. The only thing missing was musicality. From Ireland.
New sound for eurovision new age song the Witch must be crowned winner winner winner 👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑
Yeah you are right it was the devil himself
It ONLY took us a couple of years, to say the least, to come up with such a performance.
Technically speaking, this is the greatest thing to ever grace an ESC stage. The color pallet, costumes, choreography, cinematography and editing are next level.
All the closeups made it feel very intimate and emotional. Notice that we never get a wide shot showing the audience. For three minutes you’re completely transported to someplace that’s both scary and beautiful. A masterpiece.
Totally agree. This is peak artistry. The passion was overflowing. I am glad i could see something like that during my life. Amazing amazing work
Exactly that. All the close-ups and emotions portrayed - feels like a MV not a live performance. You would forget the audience is there. No wide shots of the audience until the final chorus is incredibly impactful
What about the singing.
@@userNKg11 solid vocals! Transitions between spoken word to the chorus we’re flawless and the final screams gave me goosebumps.
@@waffleweave solid when she actually sang, which was not very often. That screaming would give most people goosebumps, of the wrong kind. Screaming is not singing and this is a song competition, not a screaming or a performance competition.

#CrownTheWitch
How did it come across in the arena as in the tv it was amazing !!!
@@ToyAndGoy the performance was actually surprisingly effective in the arena. But the atmosphere in the hall was ELECTRIC! So cool to be a part of.
Loud? Crowd was LOUD for Baby Lasagna! 🥳
I was like the guy on the left when I was watching Ireland😂
Same 😂
Me too.
Me too)))
And such a contrast with a performance from Ukraine)))
Just like two sides of the world 🌍
You are boring haha
@@Natalka-y7h I know right!😂
I'm still buzzing from Bambie's performance!
It was so perfect! My jaw was on the floor the entire time!
Your easily entertained 😅😂
If you think that is easy entertainment i'm dying to know what you think isnt...@user-og2bm6hl4l
@@Lynda-z9venjoy your mindless pop shit
and whats wrong with that?@@Lynda-z9v
that might be the best staging i've ever seen at eurovision. it blew my mind.

Unfortunately we didn't reach 200 even but I'm so proud of Ireland's 6th place. Exquisite and ground breaking performance
Poor guy on the left 😂
Your reaction gave me so much joy. Thank you for being a part of making this year so special for Irish fans. 🇮🇪🇮🇪💚
Great reaction 😻
I hated at first but now think this is masterpiece 😊
That was a whole broadway production. EVERYTHING was utter perfection. The CAMERA WORK! The costumes, the make up, the choreography! Bambie just set a new bar for cinematic levels of performance
Same also this performance gives me Broadway Vibes
YES! That's exactly what I thought 🤩

Exactly, but sadly, a lot of people don't see that. They just see the stage set..
Some people can't read live stage proformance, if they could understand the lyrics, then they can understand the stage act..
And yet others can also see every medium has been hijacked. From online platforms to soaps and films to almost the entirety of the music and art industries… all of them ram the current messaging down our throats 24/7, regardless of apparent cover stories.

The fact that you needed to explain says a lot.
This will never be the kind of song I would listen to but damn was that Performance amazing. They killed it in every second.
Respect to the irish witch 🔥
This single performance elevates Eurovision to a whole new level.
I voted for Ireland! They deserve more then the 6° place.
ABSOLUTELY
BEST STAGING THIS YEAR 👌👌👌

I love the way it's all beyond their mate's tiny mind.
Come on Ireland 🇮🇪 🇮🇪 🇮🇪 🇮🇪 🇮🇪 crown the witch.bambi brilliant shes ours we love her. Shes fantastic.

Bambie Thug's performance for Ireland is the best I've seen, bar none.
her dance skills whilst singing are on pinte literally! she held that together! amazing well done bambi!
This deserves to win for originality alone. Croatia is great and amazing performance but we’ve heard it all before. Something about this song represents the colour and divergence of the world we live in. I also think Bambie is an outstanding artist who deserves all the acclaim they are now receiving 🇨🇮💚🤍🧡🇨🇮
It's unbelievable, isn't it, that such an artistic piece even made it through all the usual barriers but I'm so glad it did!!!

Guys . . . . you were speechless . . . . . the one in orange was 3 minutes in apnea I had the same effect on this song
Wow! All our questions about staging were confidently answered. Truly unforgettable. Spine-tingling. Instant classic.
lol guy in the red on left was too stunned to speak 😂
C'est une dinguerie 🤩 La meilleure mise en scène que j'ai vu de ma vie 🤪
Let’s go Bambie Thug. Great to be back in the final.
You: "😳 🤩 😱"
