@Dario Bright I am curious, what rules did they break?

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 you have right.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

😂😂😂 so true

The other day some American said Europe is in UK 😆💀 Americans think only America exists

Thinking back to that dude who thought Austria was in the Balkans 😭

What a pity😂

And background singers

@@TheSK1PP where exactly do you see background singers

@@blacklight9106he’s probably talking about in the winner’s performance a bunch of ppl came on to stage with him. Which was his team, not backing singers. This man masterclassed Eurovision without going way overboard with theatrics or costumes as they sometimes do

@@dannyeleternity7390 exactly. In my opinion he really deserved to win and its still one of the greatest eurovision sonhs ever.

One of my favourite too but let’s not overhype it

That's very debatable since the public voted for Keiino

What's so LOL in this. This is strictly just an average song. Maybe the folks who broke their heart recently or cannot get the one they love can connect to this song. There are literally thousands of Indian songs which you haven't heard yet. EDIT: For those who don't care, grow up!

By default, yes

this song is really nice... but Soldi was EVEN better and I'm not italian ;)

at least we were second

I was rooting for Mahmood that year but I keep coming back to listen Duncan's performance. They were both very good but Arcade is a timeless piece of art.

Arcade is a piece of art sung by an outstanding vocalist. Money is a fashionable tune sung by an heavily autotuned average singer. The gap in between could not be any bigger.

Mahmood was my personal fav, but this entry swept everything and everyone under it

So trueeeeee,tyyy

Are you talking about Brazil? Because Americans from US think that America is only US, when in fact America is a continent (the USA is just a country). I'm Brazilian and unfortunately few people here know Eurovision. I'm completely in love with this contest since 2012, I always discover amazing artists, languages ​​and cultures and seeing the mobilization that the contest causes in the population is so, so beautiful. Now Americans from US are thinking about the idea of ​​an America Song Contest (very similar to ESC), but if it happens, it will be only the US in it (states competing against each other, rather than countries), and I think it's absolutely ridiculous. If something similar to ESC is to be done, let it be with the entire continent (Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, etc) and not just the US states (this proposal doesn't even make sense). I'm really sad to know about it, because when I saw Australia and Israel in other editions, I thought: why can't Brazil participate, too? Because the country is affiliated to EBU, too. I know that people here probably wouldn't give it much importance (and that there are other things besides the ones I mentioned in it) but a good publicity on social medias would help hahah. This is just an outburst from a woman who really loves Eurovision, and singing and music, and who would like her country to have something similar or could participate as Australia/Israel (I know Australia has been following the contest for much longer). I was extremely happy with Maneskin's victory this year, I've been following them since 2018 (and none of my friends know them, so sad :/ ), I'm delighted to see that now they can reach other countries and continents, they deserve the world (just like so many other artists that I met through Eurovision). I apologize if I may have offended someone with this text, it wasn't my intention. Lots of love from Brazil to this contest!

@@CelloLover4100 It's a real shame that the USA took their fight against communism so far they won't even acknowledge the US in their name

@@runtergerutscht4401 I don't understand what you mean. Was this supposed to be an ironic comment?

@@CelloLover4100 I meant that because communism is about the group ("us", so to speak) and the USA have that in their name. But if you take the US away, it's just "America", which is what the USA seem to think they are.

Ja

So far I haven't been able to find a singer who can sing this song better than him His voice is a gift from God

Exactly!!

Also, no feminist nor body-positive messages, no "baka boy" words

Same

What about the Portuguese fella?

Tbh the swedish one was actually pretty good imo

The people voted for soldi but the judges voted for him. Mahmood was the only one who didn't sing in English he deserved the win

I agree

Yeah, i mean, for exapmle the chicken in 2018 thatjsut won because lyrics talked about womsn power... Oe conchita wurst who just won because was a transexual( in My opinión hunter of stats from sebalter was way better)

omg are you from small town

Congrats man, you might become a legend some day too

Wow..

So true❤🤩

@ZuluFigure got me every time

2022 Eurovision Song Contest Real Winner is Chanel, SloMo !!!

Exactly!

Exactly the same at the performance of Nano at Melodifestivalen 2017 . Those backingvocals are incredible.

Choir at the beginning sounds like Game of thrones choirs ☺

Austria 2011, Albania 2010, Sweden 1999 All legendary backing vocals :)

Nils Klein yes but in Melodifestivalen the backings aren’t singing live

if I see one more comment like this I am going to commit not live

The lights are epic here too

Beautiful song❤💯❤

So true

Salvador Sobral once said music isn't about fireworks is about feelings. This song truly is amazing.

Welcome!! Enjoy your stay baaaaby!

Well, that's not a fact, that's your opinion. In fact he must've sung with falsetto at 00:43 as how it is in recording but he did it with full voice

The fact this man can sing better live than recording 😊!

Thats like the point of eurovision dude

@@philthec8835 which is even more impressive. if anything, it proves that he can sing even better live, with improved vocal dynamics. whether you prefer the recorded or the live version is a matter of opinion

@@politemenace5781 Exactly, and for those changes, I prefer the studio version to the live version. But that doesn't mean it was bad. I still think he deserved to win with that song and great voice

Don't call me out like that

How tf did yk I’m coming💀

You got me :D

🤗

Aynen

Me too!! It was so amazing to see we won after 44 years with an iconic song like this😁❤😊

As impressive, the winner prior was the only artist that won Eurovision that year.

because covid

You counted the run starting from the song release... He won in May therfore it's not 2 years and 8 days

@Garydos GDG No he won in May the 18th while the next winner will be announced in May the 22nd

​@Guitar Lab Oh sorry lmao it's just a coincidence that you posted that comment 2 years and 4 days after the release of the song. You said "is" and not "will be" so it confused me.

Like what's the point. I never knew about this Eurovision contest. They should be happy that he's getting noticed out here.

True but a Brit I watch it every year 🙃

people who found it from tik tok are claiming it as a tik tok song it's not it's a eurovision song

@@rivaldawanabo149 American? or have you just been living under a rock your whole life?

i myself am british and have watched eurovision for every year since 2011, either way i’m just glad he’s getting the attention he deserves

Trueeee

bro best eurovision song is fairtyle or we could be same

literally the only reason it is famous is because it trended on tiktok. With the way tiktok works (people doing videos using audios that are often parts of a song and that, if the audio becomes viral, get used a lot) songs could become insanely popular in a short amount of time. That's what happened to this song, as well as other eurovision songs that have an insane amount of streams like SNAP, that also became famous on tiktok. Calling it "a classic" seems a bit of an exaggeration lol

I Don't expect Eurovision 2021 to go on tbh

@@Gumaonetwothree Well Junior Eurovision 2020 hasn't been cancelled yet, they even prepared the logo and stuff. We'll see!

Sasha - TB they expected that there will be no big events with fans/supporters until maybe even summer 2021 until there is a vaccin

ItzzLuuk didn’t china make a safe and positive vaccine?

exqtic • not sure, And if so we as the netherlands aren’t going to be one of the first to get the vaccine

Ikr I thought our country finally got some recognition but no.. 😀🇳🇱

Yes

Ik snapte het toen niet en nu nog steeds niet

Netherlands this year is much better, it’s unique and in Dutch. This song didn’t deserve to win in my opinion. North Macedonia (jury winner) and Norway (televote winner) were far better. But it is what it is and usually the Eurovision winner isn’t the best or most successful song, it’s more about performing than winning really.

@@casii8603 ja dat kan ik ook wel begrijpen

@@samisankey3104 yeah. While I think it was a pretty good song, I also think some were more impressive... I really don't remember everything from that year but I kinda agree :) and I also agree that the song of this year is better finnaly a song in Dutch and it sounds good to!

@@samisankey3104 also I loved Norway! It got me in a whole gender crisis for some reason. but if I remember correctly I think that was my favorite.

Not sure why people are so pressed about where everyone found the song from. Tiktok as a platform is good for artists like him by bringing his song out to the world for everyone to enjoy. I'm sure the artist himself isn't complaining now that more people are streaming his music and becoming fans.

@@dp6740 I wish Bulgaria won :(

I wish Norway won :/ it won most points from the people

While it's great, I wouldn't say deserved. He didn't win the jury OR the televote, even after vote fixes. Jury -> Sweden (before vote fix) and North Macedonia (after vote fix) Televote -> Norway. He was great, but he didn't win either of the votes yet wins overall which is annoying IMO.

@@dp6740 I'd have to disagree. I think Salvador is my most hated winner of all time and I have no clue what was so good about him. I didn't think he deserved to even qualify or come close to it. It was really boring and I felt nothing from it personally.

I told the same 😍👌

Trains this moment gave me goosebumps ! So powerful
