Can you imagine the BBC hosting Eurovision nowadays? It would probably be amazing, even better than Sweden, too bad they don´t wanna win and keep sending non-competitive entries.
I will never forget Dana, I was a kid back then. Israel was far ahead of its time, even for me as a Dutch guy, by sending her in. That day was an eye-opener for me, one that "queers for Gaza" badly need. At least the 2024 televote will be for Israel.
Dana won for trans people and we thank her for that but queers for Gaza is still relevant that has nothing to do with her...We don't Israel, we just want a ceasefire and reparation for the people of Palestine who have suffered enough already
@@quackson3930 how can we have ceasefire without the dismantling of Ham’Ass? It’s like saying I want to live in safety without jailing serial killers . And queers for Gaza don’t understand that the same bigotry that is used against them in h Gaza is used against Jews in Israel . We simply can’t support such bigotry
I like how every time the 'oooohhhss' in the audience get louder every time the Macedonia jury gives points to neither Israel or Malta. Must have been nerve wracking!
I was watching this live from Israel, the entire country almost had a heart attack, but at the end we couldn't sleep till the morning. We were so excited. Too bad our former broadcast authority couldn't produce such a great Eurovision as 1998 in 1999. But we more than compensated in 2019 :)
This was one of the very best Eurovision song finals. Dana International and Her Song Diva FOREVER ROCK! Thank you, Dana International. Israel is currently in war with Hamas but there are some joyful moments of the Israeli people. This is one of them! Bravo!
Easily one of the best finals ever, right DOWN to the wire! That reaction when Macedonia gave Israel 8 points, then everybody thought Malta had won, then they gave the points to Croatia instead, giving the UK second place! Intense!
THE DAY MY HEART STOPPED BEATING FOR A MINUTE .........MY UNCLE THE WRITER OF MALTA REP THE ONE THAT I LOVE ......IMAGINE SEEING THE LAST VOTE ......AND 8 PTS IZRAEL 10 PTS IZRAEL .......12 PTS POINTS GOES..TO......M... CROATIA ......,,,,NOTHING 3RD PLACE WHEN WE WERE SO CLOSE ....AMAZING
I agree with you but the special thing for those years was that the rivalry was between three or four countries. In 79, 91 and 2002 just two countries struggled with each other.
Here are my personal votes/rankings, i'am from the Netherlands 12 points: France - Marie Line - Où aller 10 points: United Kingdom - Imaani - Where are you? 8 points: Ireland - Dawn Martin - Is always over now? 7 points: Norway - Lars Fredriksen - Alltid sommer 6 points: Israël - Dana International - Diva 5 points: Cyprus - Michael Hajiyanni - Genesis 4 points: Switzerland - Gunvor - Lass ihn 3 points: Sweden - Jill Johnson - Kärleken är 2 points: Estonia - Koit Toome - Mere lapsed 1 point : Belgium - Mélanie Cohl - Dis oui
The SM Team thanks we do have a big population there... (that's why you gave us a point in the semi last year) and i reply fast because... I'm on the computer right now and... Portugal and the UK have the same timeline
If the UK wins another Eurovision Song Contest, Hamish Hamilton will DEFINITELY be directing (he started his career at the BBC and from there, on to numerous Super Bowl halftime shows, MTV Video Music Awards, 2012 Olympics opening/closing ceremonies, and of course, the Oscars)!
I remember watching this as a teenager with my dad and when he heard Dana International was born a man I expected him to say something awful but he said “she’s the most beautiful woman of the lot” and somewhere in that I knew when I came out myself as gay I would have an ally. Thanks Dana!

I actually think it was better because it felt like every single point mattered. Nowadays its just rushed (even more so with the new system coming this year) and the points from 1-7 doesnt seem to matter and in truth they do but it doesnt feel that way when they are just thrown onto the scoreboard. When they announced all the points it felt a lot better to get for example 5 points than it does now.
It was so much more exciting! Every point mattered and you could actually see all the small details in the scoreboard. Unfortunately this is not doable with so many countries
I very much prefered it the traditional way It's way too fast nowadays and the lower points seem not to matter which is a shame Also, I learned all the countries in English and French thanks to Eurovision
@@yaniva.7626 Did you see anywhere in my comment where i say it's not a fact? The problem is that YOU don't acknowledge the fact that many other countries do this as well.
Conny (spokeperson from the Netherlands): Before I will give my points, I would like to say that I performed in ESC, too. Ulrika (laughing): A long time ago, was it? Conny: It was in 1965. Ulrika: Wow! I'm very impressed.
Tin Pan Alley el mundo de la música ligera (compositores, editores, músicos, etcétera) y, por extensión, todo lo relacionado con dicha música. The score of the new musical is within the purest Tin Pan Alley tradition and we predict that everybody is going to sing the songs very soon. La partitura de la nueva revista encaja en la más pura tradición de la música ligera. Pronosticamos que dentro de poco todo el mundo cantará sus canciones. veo la foto en un marco, veo el lugar donde está tu nombre, para entonces sola en un tren vacío, dónde estás, nunca en casa con corazones rotos, hay un cálculo desde detrás, cada día es una cuestión marcada, dónde estás, conduciré a través de la lluvia para soportar las lágrimas y el dolor, puedes saber que nuestro amor ha cambiado, dónde estás ahora, a través del corazón clamo tu nombre para amar el sentimiento y la culpa, puedes saber que nuestro amor ha cambiado, dónde estás ahora. postrada en la oscuridad de mi habitación, animada y vestida de blanco, esperando la luz de la mañana, dónde estás, cada día vivimos y aprendemos, como las voluntades con que nunca nos atrevemos, por ti mi vela arde, dónde estás, conduciré a través de la lluvia para soportar las lágrimas y el dolor, puedes saber que nuestro amor ha cambiado, dónde estás ahora, a través del corazón clamo tu nombre para amar el sentimiento y la culpa, si sabes que nuestro amor ha cambiado, dónde estás ahora. tan cerca, tan lejos, me dirijo allí todo lo máximo de ti, no oigas mi pensamiento por esta vez, dónde estás ahora, conduciré a través de la lluvia para soportar las lágrimas y el dolor, puedes saber que nuestro amor ha cambiado, dónde estás ahora, conduciré a través de la Iluvia para soportar las lágrimas y el dolor, puedes saber que nuestro amor ha cambiado, dónde estás ahora. Thank you very much
Some of the backup jury points were made public so I put them together with the televotes to make a very rough results sheet (not counting the televotes from the countries with backup jury points). I know more than 100 points are unaccounted for but you get the gist ;~; 25. Switzerland with 0 points 24. Hungary with 3 points 23. Greece with 5 points 22. Spain with 10 points 21. Slovakia with 11 points =19. Romania with 13 points =19. Turkey with 13 points 18. North Macedonia with 16 points 17. Slovenia with 21 points 16. Poland with 22 points 15. Estonia with 24 points 14. Finland with 26 points 13. France with 38 points 12. Portugal with 46 points 11. Cyprus with 49 points =9. Norway with 64 points =9. Sweden with 64 points 8. Germany with 71 points 7. Croatia with 109 points =5. Ireland with 123 points =5. Belgium with 123 points 4. Israel with 129 points 3. Malta with 145 points 2. Netherlands with 154 points 1. UK with 181 points
@ 30:35 I didn't get the confusion and public's uproar surrounding the edited and inaudible exchange between the host in Britain and the host in Hilversum. Does anyone know what really happened?
The lady from the Netherlands said that she can imagine how the contestants feel since she participated herself adding that it was a long time ago, the last part went apparently unheard by the public. So what they heard was Ulrika repeating "it was a long time ago, wasn't it?" implying the dutch host is old i guess. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TwgZY7Y1_Ls.html You can hear the exchange in better quality around 02:38:00
@@RebekkaPoulain Ok, now I got it. Your last paragraph doubtlessly explains Ulrika Johnson's faux pas (boy, did she love men, I can tell you that much after perusing the Wikipedia article about her!). Thank you for the link.
