"Ea ea" is an onomatopoeia parents do to cradle or put a baby to sleep. The music is a subgenere of flamenco music mixed with electronics music. Flamenco is a traditional music from south of Spain. Its not arabic, but flamenco have many similarities with arabic music as arabs settled in Spain for some centuries. This song is a flamenco lullaby, the way the grandmother's singer Blanca sang to her to, but at the same time is an ode to motherness, and ancestors, like a ritual. If you read the lyrics you will note (if you know his works) there are also similarities to the spanish writer Federico Garcia Lorca and his "Romance of the moon", as well as some of his themes (the innocence of the child, the moon, the death, motherly love...) Thanxs for your reaction!
She is Perfection, all sense for me 😊🇪🇦💃🌹 a good song and outstanding voice with delicated performance by herself designed. Its quite cauptivating and hipnotic song.
Eaea is a lullaby. “Eaea” is the word you say when you are trying to make a baby sleep. The lyrics are very “in the Spanish tradition”: My child when I die may the bury me in the moon (so) I’ll be able to see you every single night but one (the new moon night). Oh come to me my child, come to me because there is shelter in my chest, little shelter for your worries
You don't like it and it seems good to us because each person has their tastes. It will not win because there is a lot of competition and the public tends to prefer less cultural things. However, the way you said it's not going to win, seems a bit derogatory. Implying that not only is it not going to win, but it is not even going to arouse the slightest interest in anyone. In Europe it has caused a sensation and there are many people interested in learning Spanish thanks to this song. In fact it is one of the favorites (although this does not win).
Hi, thank you for the comment 🧡😊I think we had even higher expectations from spain than we realised, and the other finalists from Spain was also great. But the song did not connect so much personally. But i think the final performance in Liverpool was awesome!

@@DavidRomero-gc6vy It should be noted that Spanish is the second most widely spoken "mother" language in the world. If it were not considered so, English could be above. Despite the population that India has, "Hindi" is spoken by only 310 million native speakers. In India there are 21 more languages. Therefore first the Chinese and second the Spanish.
The song itself, the music, is a bulería, one of the most recognizable and joyful forms of flamenco (included as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCU), and adds a modern touch of electronic rhythm to it. The theme and lyrics come from the point of view of a woman singing a lullaby, trying to put her crying baby to sleep ('Eaea' is a lullaby sound in Spain). The acting and staging are very "lorquianas" (full of winks at the famous poet Federico García Lorca) and represent a ritual, an evocation of their ancestors. Especially to his late grandmother, to whom this song is inspired and dedicated, as she taught him and sang flamenco and lullabies to him. The repetitive pattern of the rhythm, the choruses and the rhythmic claps are meant to be mesmerizing and mesmerizing to connect with the energy of the experience. The movements of his hands work as a compliment and a call to the above. Blanca Paloma starts her staging inside a circular curtain inspired by the manila shawl that symbolizes protection, motherhood, in fact she said that it could be seen as a kind of womb and together with her stage partners, she transforms her performance into a ritual of invocation, trance and catharsis, to connect with their ancestors and their indelible legacy. An explosion of sensitivity, truth and claw. The white circle represents the moon, where, as the lyrics say, she wants to be buried when she dies so that she can care for her child every night but one ('new moon'). First he kneels looking up, then he kneels down again, always with his hand outstretched. She then shoots a flaming arrow and sets it on fire (pulsing red light, heartbeat, blood, death) Finally, goes up to the shrine to finish the ritual in ecstasy.

Thanks for your reaction, Although I consider that neither you feel connection with the song nor you understand it at all because of language and cultural barrier. It is a pity!!! Above all for the lack of interest of both of you. Eurovision apart from being a festive musical event, it is also an open window to other cultures. Spain has decided to take advantage of it sharing part of its with EAEA this year. In case you don't identify the style of song, which is rare because it is known worldwide...........It is FLAMENCO, namely, FLAMENCO-FUSION which currently is at the very forefront to the world music scene. It wouldn't bad thing to show a little more interest in other cultures and diverse musical genres (it may help to open minds) apart from ubiquitous Anglo- saxon culture. Spanish language is the third most spoken one in the world....... Don' get me wrong but making a go it is worth it 🇪🇦🕊🏹💘 EAEA👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Greetings from Spain
Hi, thank you for watching 😊🧡 I think we had a bit high expectations for the winner of Spains finale in Benidorm Fest, as there was a lot of really great contenders. And i guess we where probably not in the perfect mood or setting and it did not connect with it personally. Spanish culture is great and we are going to learn a lot more about it. We are familiar with Flamenco but not so much that we could identify it here on the spot 😃 And who knows, maybe we will pick up some Spanish words as we watch more about Spain. Greetings from Norway 🤗
@@darligevennerpodcast Don' t worry , you aren't forced to learn anything about Spain and other cultures, it was only a piece of advice. The thing is that when I watched your reaction I had the real impression that you were laughing at the singer above all your mate who put faces like he was tasting sour lemon, without understanding at all the real meaning of the song which is really a Motherhood Ode full of metaphors and symbolisms. Believe me it is more a matter of sensitivity than understanding. It seemed me rather disrespectful. As everybody knows, Spain wasn' the cup of tea of televote. As Spaniard keep thinking that Europe is not enough ready to embrance more risky and cultural proposals , as usual, it is a fight the David against Goliath. I mean, the mainstream and vested interests versus culture and impartiality. Every culture deserves to be known , I am sure that Norwegian one is enriching as well. Spain is much more than Flamenco, sun, paella, vibrant nightlife and beaches, I invite you to know us a little more. This festival should serve to approach different way of living and understanding music rather than being the plataform of hidden interests , very unfair indeed. Greetings from Spain
"ea ea" in spanish is an onomatopeia that parents use in spain to get their babies to sleep, the song sounds kind of "arabic" as you said because it embraces the andalusi culture that has a big arabic influence
Here more and less lirycs in english. Oh my sweet child, come to me, come to me, to sleep by my side. In my chest you will find shelter. Shelter and relieve to all your griefs. Ya Ea Ea Ya Ea Ea. ( Spanish Expression sweet when mothers embrace their childrens to make them sleep peacefully and calm them down of fears and tears) Nile River tears and sleepless nights ( that reminds Lorca Poem) My child when I die , bury me in the Moon ( circle White of the performance) and all nights I see you, all nights I see you, all nights I can see you, but one night ( here refers although only just one night because she knows and accept there will be one night, she can see him when the Moon is dark, with the new Moon) Oh come to me, my little son, my little one, my lovely son. That in the night your eyes bright my way like two Suns ( Stars, his clear eyes light her way like not only but two Suns, she exagerate the idea, that just watching her son eyes can remove all her pain bringing true meaning for her like mother) Ya Ea Ea Ya Ea Ea. ( Words of confortation and mothers love to feel safe and sound before going sleep meanwhile they carrying in their arms) thats It, and so she repeat same again. In the performance theres a lot reference to Flamenco like that red curtain circle symbol of the fridge shawl dancers. The Arrow when light on that red colour symbolism of life and Blood, dancers or priestesess rythm is like they were in trance or ecstasy invoking their ancestors . Actually Blanca dedicate this song to her passaway grandmother Who taught her to sing Flamenco, only Blood connection that since she just been a child felt so close. Her grandmother sung her these similars Flamenco lullaby when she was just a little girl. And now she wrote this one back to her memory. The most special one according to her, which saw in her the perfect inheritor to give away that passion and continue that privilege and extraordinary legacy.
Es una canción de amor... Ella expresa fenomenal el sentimiento de una madre ante la pérdida... Ea ea.. es el sonido suave q cantas cuando meces a tu bebé intentando tranquilizarlo. Y si tampco ganamos este año... Es normal. Eurovisión no tiene que ver con el talento de la artista... Es un tema de situación política
No tienen ni idea de lo que dice la canción y el sentimiento de esa nana flamenca … os queda grande !!! 😢 Y basta de reírse y esas bromas entupidas… respetar la lengua y el carácter español… demostráis poco respeto a la cultura hispana y al arte flamenco 💃.😢😢😢😢
Hearing a lot how Spain “can do” … what everyone else can do?… sure! It proved that last year, we prove it with Rosalía and many others outside of Eurovision, but, this time they’ve been faithful to the saying, “Spain is different”. It’s not just a song, it’s ART. Just a little bit of insight into Spanish southern culture and it’s most famous, world renowned poet, FEDERICO GARCÍA LORCA, his lullabies and plays like ‘Bodas de Sangre’, ‘Yerma’, amongst others, and the films made out of these by the flamenco dancer Antonio Gades, would provide a full understanding of what’s behind all this. It’s a lullaby sung in the form of a ‘bulería’, written by Blanca Paloma when her grandmother died. It’s about a mother expressing how she wants to protect her child even after her death, and when she does die, she wants to be buried in the moon from where each night she will watch over him except on one, the night of a new moon. EAEA means many things colloquially in Spanish, but in a lullaby and in Andalucía specially, it’s what’s used to calm a baby’s crying or put him to sleep. She has an unquestionable presence on stage and a fantastic voice; the song uses elements of traditional flamenco fused with modern and more current rhythms; it has quality (maybe too much for what Eurovision requires or is capable of appreciating); it’s passionate, raw, strong whilst exuding tenderness, it just overflows with feeling. It’s a risky, hypnotic, very original option that is faithful to Spain’s deep cultural roots. Whether you like it or not, one thing’s certain, no one will remain indifferent. Very proud of Spain this year.
As Scandinavians totally absorbed by the Anglo-Saxon culture because you even sing in English derogating from your own language, I understand that it sounds a bit Arabic to you, but in reality they are ancestral notes that travel the European continent, from Albania to Portugal. What sounds cheap to me is the typical commercial song sung in English
𝑩𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒂'𝒔 𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆 is a folk spanish song with a modern twist. On the 𝒎𝒆𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈 of the performance: - The song genre is a '𝑏𝑢𝑙𝑒𝑟𝑖́𝑎' (kind of a specific subgenere of flamenco) with electronic touches. - The lyrics of the song is a 𝑙𝑢𝑙𝑙𝑎𝑏𝑦.

Spanish folklore like Flamenco has Arabic roots because of 8 centuries of Al Andalus. This is not a universal song you will here in Spotify. This is flamenco and flamenco is art. It shows our heritage, culture, language,..but not many non Spanish people won't get it.
My number 2 this year, after Malta. My number 3 is Australia. This Spanish entry is pure magic and I get totally silent and sucked into it. Og ja, jeg er forresten også norsk.
Código de un festival. Si vas a comentar una canción existe la ética por el respeto hacia cualquier tema musical pues lleva un enorme trabajo y esfuerzo de un equipo implícito. Decir que Europa es rica en idiomas y lenguas por lo cual quedan incluidas todas las participantes y no hay exclusión étnica ni lingüística. No entiendo vuestra actitud pues da impresión de segregar al país y lo encuentro totalmente desafortunada. La cultura musical existe y vosotros dos dais muy poco ejemplo. Por si hay algún tipo de duda, resquebrajar así lo veo absurdo y nada constructivo. España este año cuenta con una mujer apoyada y cultivada. Y junto con Chanel quizás pueda ser, aquí en España ya lo es, una firme y gran candidata a ganar Eurovisión 2023. Saludos.
I´m expat in Spain - I love this bulleria however I think it maybe too intense and sophisticated for Eurovision (normally crap jokey pop songs win - like this years Finland entry). Blanca Paloma however will be around a lot longer than many of the contestants - she´s pure art and culture and many would pay to see her perform live in an international arena. Saying that her fan presence spans to Americas & S America so you never know how the results will pan out this year with the international voting system
Se escenifica una tragedia universal : no hay un padre, las "lágrimas del Nilo" te dicen que es un niño gitano, (=egipciano) o que ella es viuda (cuándo murió Osiris, las lágrimas de Isis son el origen del río Nilo) la madre que se deshilacha sobre la cuna, desvelada noche tras noche, cuidando del niño, ella sola, ( de ahi el decorado de flecos rojos o simplemente es un Manton de Manila) y nos recuerda poetas como García Lorca o Miguel Hernández (Nanas de la cebolla) El flamenco recoge una tradición musical religiosa judeocristiana y musulmana y el lamento del pueblo egipciano, y ahora se introduce un elemento pagano, qué es el ritual a la Luna, (madre o muerte a la que ella invoca para poder cuidar del niño depues de muerta) todos ellos elementos típicos de Federico García Lorca La canción de Chanel nos llevó a Hispanoamérica, sin embargo Blanca Paloma nos lleva al flamenco, a la España Andalusi y la música de los pueblos que en ella coexistieron Finalmente, EA, Ea se usa para arrullar a un bebe pero también para animar (RAE) , y así en los tablaos flamencos se usa para decir :vamos, vamos, por eso el movimiento de la mano de ella, y el diferente ritmo entre la nana dirigida al niño y el resto de la canción (BP lo usa para arrullar pero también para jalear.) Gracias por vuestra reaccion, realmente no importa si la canción gana o no, el flamenco está declarado como patrimonio de la humanidad por la UNESCO y lo único importante es que este año está en Eurovisión representado
Q arte Maria y yo en Inglaterra con mis lágrimas 😢 de emoción q me traslada a mi tierra preciosa Andalucía solo hay una y ese arte escénico y los trasmite .para mí y muchos españoles q están fuera de nuestra tierra te damos las gracias por esta canción porque tenemos q fomentar con orgullo nuestro arte así q como estoy aquí votaré por mi tierra sin duda.
Soy andaluza amo el flamenco, también tengo un hermano migrado en Holanda y se que es escuchar el flamenco cuando uno está fuera,.... yo lloro cada vez que escucho esta canción
@@darligevennerpodcast Ooh! a déjà vu! Head banging Perhaps from the hypnotic trance N avant-garde show sth like to Bertolt Brecht play. Funny reaction although don't share my opinion.
No entiendo de que están hablando estos comentaristas. Pero creo que su reacción es la misma que la mía. Tiene un voz Preciosa, canta muy bien, pero…. No es para Eurovisión, el estilo flamenco no es algo que guste a toda España, lo digo sin ánimo de ofender y con respeto, es una realidad. Como lo van a apreciar el resto de Europa?? Espero equivocarme, pero no va a quedar en buen lugar. Y yo le deseo lo mejor, porque lo interpreta muy bien y se lo merece.
Es el folclore del sur de España, se llama flamenco y tiene influencias árabes porque fueron invadidos por ellos durante siglos. Es una apuesta arriesgada y puedo entender que no conecteis con ello.
Bueno pues otro año más. No ha ganado Blanca pero ha ganado España jajaja La cancion de Loreen al final es copia de Flying Free de Pont Aeri Esto es lo que se comenta , personalmente he escuchado las dos y puedo decir que lo miren porque puede ser plagio
"Vocal masturbation"😂, honestly? How crude! In the UK we call it "vocal gymnastics". Vocal masturbation may be missinterpreted as something entirely different! Trust Scandinavians to sexualise something entirely innocuous.....
Ah por favor no salgáis con esa imagen de España muchos odiamos el sacrificio de los toros sobre todo los que somos del norte hay sitios de ESPAÑA que está prohibido,el país es grande y muy diferente,el flamenco es de Andalucía no de todo el pais
Parecen un poco listillos estos dos...., pero realmente son un poco ignorantes teniendo en cuenta que hay detalles que no tienen ni idea. Y luego ese tono con aire despectivo que emplean deja mucho que desear, qué atrevidos!, la verdad. Pueden dar su opinión pero al menos un poco de elegancia por favor !!!!
At least look up the lyrics and try to understand the story behind it. It says a lot about your musical taste to not even do the bare minimum. I guess commercial songs and exclusively in English are your thing even though English isn’t even your first language so
Is called Flamenco...and is according to UNESCO Cultural heritage of Humanity.Please a little bit of more music culture, there is a universe beyond the rock and the pop...and all respects for the countries that are using their own languages..and not English, because if at the end we all sing in english similar style , what is the point of that Festival??
Pues me da a mi que este año .....poca cosa haremos Ya lo siento y desde el respeto...no haremos nada, ni siquiera representa a España, solo a una parte.Le doy una septima posicion pero empezando por abajo
A mi si me representa. Soy de Madrid y mi familia de Asturias, Soria y Navarra. El flamenco, por supuesto Andaluz y Patrimonio cultural inmaterial de la humanidad por la Unesco desde el 2010, claro que me representa. También me representó Chanel, música latina.

Eaea is a lullaby. “Eaea” is the word you say when you are trying to make a baby sleep.

Oh come to me my child, come to me because there is shelter in my chest, little shelter for your worries
Thank you 😊🧡
In Spain we say ea ea to a child when he is hurt,when he is crying. it means something like "dont cry it is over now"

As Scandinavians totally absorbed by the Anglo-Saxon culture because you even sing in English derogating from your own language, I understand that it sounds a bit Arabic to you, but in reality they are ancestral notes that travel the European continent, from Albania to Portugal. What sounds cheap to me is the typical commercial song sung in English
Go SPAIN 🏆🇪🇦
Go SPAIN! 😊
Cuanto más la escucho, mas me gusta...
𝑩𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒂'𝒔 𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆 is a folk spanish song with a modern twist.
On the 𝒎𝒆𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈 of the performance:
- The song genre is a '𝑏𝑢𝑙𝑒𝑟𝑖́𝑎' (kind of a specific subgenere of flamenco) with electronic touches.
- The lyrics of the song is a 𝑙𝑢𝑙𝑙𝑎𝑏𝑦.
'éa éa' is an onomatopeia in Spain we use to calm childrens while they are crying.
𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑠𝑜𝑛𝑔 ℎ𝑎𝑠 𝑟𝑒𝑓𝑒𝑟𝑒𝑛𝑐𝑒𝑠 𝑡𝑜 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑝𝑜𝑒𝑚𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝐹𝑒𝑑𝑒𝑟𝑖𝑐𝑜 𝐺𝑎𝑟𝑐𝑖́𝑎 𝐿𝑜𝑟𝑐𝑎. One of the most important poets of Spain.
Is the story of a mother who want to be buried into the moon when she dies to see her child every night except one (new moon day).
- The 𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑔𝑖𝑛𝑔 has been 𝑐𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑑 and 𝑑𝑒𝑠𝑖𝑔𝑛𝑒𝑑 by ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑠𝑒𝑙𝑓. Until two years ago, Blanca worked as a set designer. She is not a professional singer.
The 𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑔𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑖𝑠 𝑎 𝑡𝑟𝑖𝑏𝑢𝑡𝑒 𝑡𝑜 ℎ𝑒𝑟 𝑔𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑑𝑚𝑜𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑟. The red fringes recreate 'un mantón de manila'. A piece of clothing typical of the Spanish culture. Simulates the arms of her grandmother dressed with the 'mantón' hugging her.
The circle represents the moon.
The dancers also accompany her in the 'palmeo' and the choirs, with 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑖𝑟 𝑐ℎ𝑜𝑟𝑒𝑜𝑔𝑟𝑎𝑝ℎ𝑦 𝑠𝑖𝑚𝑢𝑙𝑎𝑡𝑒 𝑎 𝑟𝑖𝑡𝑒. Evoking the birth of a child .
gracias por la descripción :)😉
Gracias ❤
Thanks for watching 😃
It’s a lullaby
Yes, la luna is the moon, bravo...
Spanish folklore like Flamenco has Arabic roots because of 8 centuries of Al Andalus. This is not a universal song you will here in Spotify. This is flamenco and flamenco is art. It shows our heritage, culture, language,..but not many non Spanish people won't get it.
Si Eurovision Festival es en Anfield, gana España seguro
Its a lullaby!! That's why you don't understand it and appreciate it
My number 2 this year, after Malta. My number 3 is Australia. This Spanish entry is pure magic and I get totally silent and sucked into it. Og ja, jeg er forresten også norsk.
Código de un festival. Si vas a comentar una canción existe la ética por el respeto hacia cualquier tema musical pues lleva un enorme trabajo y esfuerzo de un equipo implícito. Decir que Europa es rica en idiomas y lenguas por lo cual quedan incluidas todas las participantes y no hay exclusión étnica ni lingüística. No entiendo vuestra actitud pues da impresión de segregar al país y lo encuentro totalmente desafortunada. La cultura musical existe y vosotros dos dais muy poco ejemplo. Por si hay algún tipo de duda, resquebrajar así lo veo absurdo y nada constructivo. España este año cuenta con una mujer apoyada y cultivada. Y junto con Chanel quizás pueda ser, aquí en España ya lo es, una firme y gran candidata a ganar Eurovisión 2023.
Saludos.
I´m expat in Spain - I love this bulleria however I think it maybe too intense and sophisticated for Eurovision (normally crap jokey pop songs win - like this years Finland entry). Blanca Paloma however will be around a lot longer than many of the contestants - she´s pure art and culture and many would pay to see her perform live in an international arena. Saying that her fan presence spans to Americas & S America so you never know how the results will pan out this year with the international voting system
Se escenifica una tragedia universal : no hay un padre, las "lágrimas del Nilo" te dicen que es un niño gitano, (=egipciano) o que ella es viuda (cuándo murió Osiris, las lágrimas de Isis son el origen del río Nilo) la madre que se deshilacha sobre la cuna, desvelada noche tras noche, cuidando del niño, ella sola, ( de ahi el decorado de flecos rojos o simplemente es un Manton de Manila) y nos recuerda poetas como García Lorca o Miguel Hernández (Nanas de la cebolla)
El flamenco recoge una tradición musical religiosa judeocristiana y musulmana y el lamento del pueblo egipciano, y ahora se introduce un elemento pagano, qué es el ritual a la Luna, (madre o muerte a la que ella invoca para poder cuidar del niño depues de muerta) todos ellos elementos típicos de Federico García Lorca
La canción de Chanel nos llevó a Hispanoamérica, sin embargo Blanca Paloma nos lleva al flamenco, a la España Andalusi y la música de los pueblos que en ella coexistieron
Finalmente, EA, Ea se usa para arrullar a un bebe pero también para animar (RAE) , y así en los tablaos flamencos se usa para decir :vamos, vamos, por eso el movimiento de la mano de ella, y el diferente ritmo entre la nana dirigida al niño y el resto de la canción (BP lo usa para arrullar pero también para jalear.)
Gracias por vuestra reaccion, realmente no importa si la canción gana o no, el flamenco está declarado como patrimonio de la humanidad por la UNESCO y lo único importante es que este año está en Eurovisión representado
Q arte Maria y yo en Inglaterra con mis lágrimas 😢 de emoción q me traslada a mi tierra preciosa Andalucía solo hay una y ese arte escénico y los trasmite .para mí y muchos españoles q están fuera de nuestra tierra te damos las gracias por esta canción porque tenemos q fomentar con orgullo nuestro arte así q como estoy aquí votaré por mi tierra sin duda.
Soy andaluza amo el flamenco, también tengo un hermano migrado en Holanda y se que es escuchar el flamenco cuando uno está fuera,.... yo lloro cada vez que escucho esta canción
Si Maria ole andaluza.
Q linda es nuestra tierra y q ganitas tengo de sentir ese sol su gente la buena comida.
Gracias.
Un poquito de respeto... Ya quisierais llegar a Blanca Paloma a la suela del zapato
What does 'Eaea' mean? That's what we, spanish mothers, tell babies for make them get asleep. This song is a lullaby.
It's a 2nd reaction to this song? did u delete video and make a new reaction?.
No this was the first time we ever watched this video. Never heard the song either 😊 Thank you for watching!
@@darligevennerpodcast Ooh! a déjà vu! Head banging Perhaps from the hypnotic trance N avant-garde show sth like to Bertolt Brecht play. Funny reaction although don't share my opinion.
It’s Flamenco the word you are looking for. Not Arabic.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🕊️🏹❤️
When you meet FLAMENCO, we can go on
The first time I hear it I get displaced
No perdais el tiempo respondiendo a estos porque ni se enteran ni responden a los comentarios y son unos maleducados.😅😅😅😅😅
No entiendo de que están hablando estos comentaristas. Pero creo que su reacción es la misma que la mía. Tiene un voz Preciosa, canta muy bien, pero…. No es para Eurovisión, el estilo flamenco no es algo que guste a toda España, lo digo sin ánimo de ofender y con respeto, es una realidad. Como lo van a apreciar el resto de Europa?? Espero equivocarme, pero no va a quedar en buen lugar. Y yo le deseo lo mejor, porque lo interpreta muy bien y se lo merece.
No tenéis ni idea, os sacan del Norte y os perdeis. Venid un día a la feria de Sevilla y se os quitan las tonterías xD
Es el folclore del sur de España, se llama flamenco y tiene influencias árabes porque fueron invadidos por ellos durante siglos. Es una apuesta arriesgada y puedo entender que no conecteis con ello.
If you search the translation, probably you crie 😭 check it
Lo mejor es que venga Benjamin y les llene la pantalla de comentarios...😅.......perdón
Este año a callar bocas , como el año pasado
It is a old song Spanish Andalusian..and mix roots ancestry tribes...
lets go POLAND live
Bueno pues otro año más. No ha ganado Blanca pero ha ganado España jajaja
La cancion de Loreen al final es copia de Flying Free de Pont Aeri
Esto es lo que se comenta , personalmente he escuchado las dos y puedo decir que lo miren porque puede ser plagio
"Vocal masturbation"😂, honestly? How crude! In the UK we call it "vocal gymnastics". Vocal masturbation may be missinterpreted as something entirely different! Trust Scandinavians to sexualise something entirely innocuous.....
😄🙄😇
Just pulling your leg mate! Love Scandinavia😜
Ah por favor no salgáis con esa imagen de España muchos odiamos el sacrificio de los toros sobre todo los que somos del norte hay sitios de ESPAÑA que está prohibido,el país es grande y muy diferente,el flamenco es de Andalucía no de todo el pais
“It’s like hearing some Arabic country” hmm maybe read a history book?
Parecen un poco listillos estos dos...., pero realmente son un poco ignorantes teniendo en cuenta que hay detalles que no tienen ni idea. Y luego ese tono con aire despectivo que emplean deja mucho que desear, qué atrevidos!, la verdad. Pueden dar su opinión pero al menos un poco de elegancia por favor !!!!
Eaeaeaeaeaeaeaeaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF putolokooooooooo!!!!!!!!!
A ganar espeña
At least look up the lyrics and try to understand the story behind it. It says a lot about your musical taste to not even do the bare minimum. I guess commercial songs and exclusively in English are your thing even though English isn’t even your first language so
Is called Flamenco...and is according to UNESCO Cultural heritage of Humanity.Please a little bit of more music culture, there is a universe beyond the rock and the pop...and all respects for the countries that are using their own languages..and not English, because if at the end we all sing in english similar style , what is the point of that Festival??
No lo entenderán en Eurovisión ,mucho del sur de España,ella canta genial pero no es canción para Eurovisión,este ano ganará Suecia
The shamest song to represent Spain in 40 years
Pues me da a mi que este año .....poca cosa haremos Ya lo siento y desde el respeto...no haremos nada, ni siquiera representa a España, solo a una parte.Le doy una septima posicion pero empezando por abajo
A mi sí me representa siendo yo salmantina, pero sobre todo...española.
a mi tambien y no soy Andaluz
@@patxiperezmora5631 No es Andaluz sino Mediterraneo, falta todo el resto de España
A mi si me representa. Soy de Madrid y mi familia de Asturias, Soria y Navarra. El flamenco, por supuesto Andaluz y Patrimonio cultural inmaterial de la humanidad por la Unesco desde el 2010, claro que me representa.
También me representó Chanel, música latina.
@@lordj731 No es musica andaluza sino Mediterranea
La canción es horrible, lamentable, verguenza ajena.
Good singer, but bad song
No me gusta nada😢😢
Good guess! Flamenco has a huge arabic influence, as the Iberian Peninsula was inhabited by both christians and muslims from 711 to 1492.
