Je suis Française. Slimane a vraiment une voix incroyable mais c'est aussi un chouette garçon sensible, simple et authentique. Nous espérons enfin une victoire car il le mérite vraiment ❤ Merci pour votre vidéo 😊
Slimane won The Voice in 2016. After he did 4 albums, each one was number 1 in France. He already a important fan base in many other countries. AND… he is a excellent performer. He will carry emotions and will kill it. Hope he will do well !
And all his albums reached number one in the charts ? I didn’t know that! But it’s not wonder because I see that on Spotify his songs are very much heard. I also Read that he was excited to go to Eurovision. Which gives me hopes that Eurovision is not lost yet because artists like him ( quality artists ) still compete ❤️
@@georgikanevESC yeah. He is famous even in other countries, he has a fan base already in french speaking countries. He was rumored last year to be interested, but La Zarra was designated. Also we know that Anne Sila (a good singer, winner of the voice as well, but less productive than Slimane) was interested last year and could be nominated in the future. For France’s case, the good staging and good exposure of artists like La Zarra (even if she killed all her efforts with the hand gesture and questionnable behaviour 🤦♀️😅) and good exposure for Slimane may have a positive impact. It can : - re connect the French public to the contest (especially just before the junior contest organized in the country) - and convince mature / famous artists to compete for France. Indeed, The deliberate will to lose of the French delegation in the past and the poor songs that were sent 15-20 years ago totally killed the interest of French public for the contest. So maybe, with artist like Slimane, the contest will upgrade in their eyes as well as in the eyes of the famous French artists. 🤞 We will see.
@@CitronCassis yes exactly . I fully agree with you about how the public sees the Eurovision Song Contest. Many many see it as an “ new artist opportunity “ many see it as a joke. What La Zarra did wasn’t great indeed. But somehow after Barbara Pravi, Eurovision fans that don’t see the contest as a joke, look closely to what countries send and are able to judge the song in a fair way. I hope that other countries like Germany also do like that and wake the public and see the contest with different eyes. Slimane’s popularity seems very bright and positive from what I see.
This had never happened , to have such a strong song and so early. I don’t know yet what people think of it, I just know that I am in love with that ballad
@@georgikanevESC Barbara Pravi's song and Amir's song is good, but this song is amazing 💯💯💯😍😍. I think the next Eurovision have a lot of really good song.
@@georgikanevESC In order to answer your question, I’d Slimane used to be both of them (a judge in « the Voice » french version and a former candidate as well) . I didn’t know of his song before the 2024 ESC and was stunned by his performance as u can guess _ so emotional indeed
Georgi, this is a very very good video… I’ve had this song on an endless loop since yesterday. He’s beyond amazing. The emotion he transmits with his voice 🤩😭… I’m saying it here: best Eurovision ballad ever.
Oh you’re saying it here !!! Ok I expect that you didn’t write that comment on anyone else’s video then cause that’s an “ outen “ what we say in Germany 🤣 Yes I agree , the emotions that I feel while I listen to the song since yesterday I can’t describe either, i don’t think that I would have it if someone else would sing the song. He is the perfect match
@@georgikanevESC you got the exclusive, Georgi. Only here I say such a thing. Totally outen! This guy has a gift 💜… now get busy and make a video about the best Eurovision ballads ever. And don’t shy away from controversy!
@@vincentf6527 hahah ohhhhh I have to pay you for ideas 🤯❤️🥳 I love this idea so much that now I wanna delete your comment and pretend it’s my idea 😅🤣🤣🤣
I wasn't ready to get actual Eurovision entries quite yet, but I am delighted we are getting something so amazing so early. This is a fantastic overall package and I already think it could be a contender to win in Malmo. If the rest of the songs are as strong as this, 2024 will be a very strong year indeed 🥰
Hey Terry, nice to have you here ❤️ I had a slight feeling that esc 2024 could be a strong year, one of the strongest ones. We don’t know anything yet. But Slimane’s song put the bar very high right now
Haha yesss I was emotional and anxious and all feelings together 😅 because it’s so early and I was thinking: omg it’s the first song , it better be good. And turns out to be moooore than good 😌
Don't worry Georgi - no one was prepared for the first song to be released so early 😉. Due to the early release, we will be listening to the song quite a few more times, and I'm curious to see how it will rank in April. No doubt a very high quality song and an amazing artist.
Yes I was thinking about it , that it’s very early. But on the other hand , many people who will watch the final that don’t follow the songs from now and just watch the final , which is probably 80%. This song will be new for them , so I guess it could take lots of votes from people who won’t be “ tired “ of listening to it I guess… For me it’s definitely a high quality song. Unbelievable voice
Niiiccceeeee! I love it, it's delicate, it's intens, it's soft and at the same time powerful. And then, his voice has this little Arab sound to it and I am a BIG fan of Arab music, so this one goes straight to my playlist. It's actually a llitle bit like a French/Arab Marco Mengoni but I think this song is much more delicate than Marco's. I suppose he launches it early because this way he can launch it at junior? I just hope that this doesn't make us get bored of it too soon 🤔 Furthermore, besides this, I like to think France is giving the world, and the country, a little peaceful wink 😉✌. Because you must admit, it is a lovely moment to launch this song, in this moment in time, with everything that is happening around the world, especially also in France. A beautiful lovesong sung by this wonderful singer of Arab backgrounds...might be my fantasy, but I get the message... Btw, I had a friend in school named Slimane, it comes from Suleman and you pronounce it as you write it but without the last E.
Absolutely agree with you about that. That it’s a song that came at the perfect timeline of the year with everything happening. With research and seeing that actually he is quite big in France means that’s it’s all well planed from the deligation of France to come now with that singer and that song. I wish other countries can also read the right time. His voice is really one of a kind. Very manly and serious, pronounces the French lyrics so good that I can even sing along a bit. It is straight in my playlist as well
@@georgikanevESC He does speak very clearly indeed ! I lived in Paris when I was 15 and studied French for 5 years in high school, but my French is rubbish after so many years without speaking it since I live in Spain now. Nevertheless, I still understand what he sings because he speaks so clearly 🥰 I am also listening to his last album "croniques d'un cupidon" since lunch today and LOOOVEEE IT😍😍😍😍😍😍 He even has a song with La Zarra !
@@JNL76 I was also listening to his top 5 songs in Spotify and loved the vibe and the genre of his music. With that song he stays true to his roots of what kind of songs he sings and I like it because it means he is capable of delivering a magical performance. Hahah about your French 🤣 I love it. Like the songs from destiny says “ excuse my French “ 🤣
@@georgikanevESC Georgi, after listening to his repertoire I must admit this song for Eurovision is not his best, nor my favourite. AND, as you mention in your video, there is a part that is too loud, I agree, after listening to it a few times, there is a part of the song that results too shouty.
Hmmm I don’t fully agree when it come to pity votes … I am not gonna mention year. But it is a fact P.S this son mon amour , could be the second Barbara pravi , getting Tele and highest jury votes
Another beautiful song from France … but after La Zara last year so inappropriately so unfairly misclassified seems that French songs are not welcomed… shame
Why do you say that ? Why are they not welcomed ? For me what La Zarra did I laughed and got over it. She should be ashamed not everyone after her going to Eurovision. I didn’t even think once of for example Slimane not being welcomed
To that I can’t disagree , the last 4 years have proven that televoting can’t be VERY disappointing and then the fandom after Eurovision is ( what happened ? ) 😥
What a voice he has!! The final is so powerful, he gave me goosebumps all over. But not only the powerful part, his airy voice is beautiful too. And he's such a great performer. I'm not a ballad person at all, but this song is beautiful. Just to say, thanks France, this is a great way to start the season🙌
Sooo good way of starting the season. As I said in my reaction too, I am not easy with ballads or rock songs. But when it’s good I can’t oversee it. His vocals are one of a kind, very manly, airy , dark and then in the chorus so high and powerful. No wonder that he won the the voice … I am very very happy with the quality that started already
@@georgikanevESC Yeah, when the song is good, no matter the genre. And it's eary to say this, pero I hope France decide to focus on him on stage like Italy did with Marco. His voice doesn't need much more. Now... What a high standard for the rest of the countries🤭
@@SayaKur0Zer0 yesss 🤣🤣🤣 I was thinking about that too. A very high standard France put. Now the following songs will be judged according to this , it could go both ways 😅
Finally the season really started and with such a great song 😍 Vive la France 🇫🇷
What a beatiful song , This message is so powerful . Slimane is very popular in France. I think it's time for France to win Eurovision song contest
France deserves another victory in Eurovision Song Contest again
I was left speechless with this song I’m just so in love ❤
Me too Laura , so so much, the whole thing screams quality
France is looking for another victory in Eurovision Song Contest
Je suis Française.
Slimane a vraiment une voix incroyable mais c'est aussi un chouette garçon sensible, simple et authentique.

❤️ oh aren’t you proud of that ? I wish I could have a song from my country and I can say that !!!
Be proud , because this song absolutely amazing
@@georgikanevESC Barbara Pravi's song and Amir's song is good, but this song is amazing 💯💯💯😍😍. I think the next Eurovision have a lot of really good song.
@@quentinbrard29 yes I agree to that but I also will add Bilal Hasani to the list because I love this song

Surprised to see the Eurovision season start so early! I was emotional watching it the first time 🥲

And turns out to be moooore than good 😌
It’s a live performance it’s actually amazing ! Well done France 12pts from Armenia 🇦🇲 ❤
This is what makes it more special, knowing that he sings live and feeling his voice 👌🏻
Another great vid, buddy. A great start to Eurovision 2024.
🥳🥳❤️ thank you. So early but yes it is a start to 2024
Vive Slimane
Thank you so so so much King Georgi for your reaction! Much love from France!
And thank you so much for commenting and being here ❤️🥳
P.S be proud of your country , cause that quality :)
France really wants the victory at Eurovision Song Contest
France really wants to win Eurovision song contest
Yes and not only this year but the previous ones too. But this year in my opinion with Slimane they really really go for it
Don't worry Georgi - no one was prepared for the first song to be released so early 😉.
Due to the early release, we will be listening to the song quite a few more times, and I'm curious to see how it will rank in April.
No doubt a very high quality song and an amazing artist.

@@georgikanevESC Exactly my case (and I’m french !)

He won The Voice 2016
Yes so I read also, and also that the following 4 albums of him after the voice were at the top of the charts in France 🇫🇷😀

It’s Slimane with a French for prononciation not a é!
Thank you 😌 yes when I did the reaction I didn’t know so I pronounced it 2 different ways.
Now I know exactly how to pronounce his name
Oh come on every year the best song wins or comes second The eurovision voting process works great
Hmmm I don’t fully agree when it come to pity votes … I am not gonna mention year. But it is a fact
P.S this son mon amour , could be the second Barbara pravi , getting Tele and highest jury votes
