28 countries in ONE semi-final vs 24 in the Grand Final. Completely mind-boggling! Good thing there are two semi-finals than one the year after this to today.
@@YTN1112 One with 18 and one with 19 participants, as Italy was still boycotting the contest. If 43 countries participated then it would have been like in 2008 or 2011.
@@Michini12875 there was actually only the one.. .and most people seem to agree that after Petra/Mans in 2016, no one will ever be able to match them. Certainly no one since has come close.
@@FannomacritaireSuomi well that makes one of you who thinks that. Likely any others are Irish themselves. More importantly, she didnt have to do hardly anything at all.. She was more of a simple overseer, than an active PRESENTER/PERFORMER. SO on THAT basis, she isn't the most professional.. ANy capable person can stand there and talk. Ive seen that show and she did an admirable job, but hardly impressive.
@@sumeyyeolcay8355 with the big four: 🇩🇪🇪🇸🇬🇧🇫🇷 the host 🇫🇮, few countries like 🇬🇷🇦🇲🇧🇦🇨🇮🇱🇹🇷🇺🇸🇪🇷🇴🇺🇦 got enough to qualify for the finals, due to a large number of contestants performing, until two-parts of semi-finals a year later.
I'm so happy to find this video! How lovely it is that my country has had a pleasure to host Eurovision Song Contest even just once in history! Thank you for uploading this! Greetings from Finland!
the cute little skits in between the entries were amazing! i usually skip past them or don't pay any attention to them but these in particular did a very good job representing Finland's culture whilst also being funny and cute!
They're right that booing at the end! There are 28 countries and only 10 of them qualified, while some of the ''automatic qualifier''s didn't deserve at all.
Well this was the reason why two semi-finals were introduced immediately in 2008, EBU didn't even plan to introduce them yet, but because of this backlash, we got the birth of a format we have right now.
Icelands entry is so underrated! The lyrics are really strong and the song in general can be quite hardhitting. I feel like the band could've taken it down a notch tho. They are exhausting to watch!
I wish 2007 and 2023 swapped the semi-final systems. Two semi-finals already in 2007 and temporary one-semi-final system for this year, since this year has so few participants.
Andorra, Israel, Iceland, Austria, Cyprus and Portugal all deserved to be in the final IMO.... this was the last Eurovision not to have finals appearance completely merit based (outside the permanent Big 5)
6:04-6:11 However, do not vote yet, because the voting will not start until all the songs have been performed. But we will let you know exactly when to start voting.
First ever points given to each country in 2007's semi-final (not shown here): *Bold indicates the country qualified for the first time.* *- Serbia 🇷🇸, 2 points from 🇦🇱* - Montenegro 🇲🇪, 7 points from 🇦🇱 *- Georgia 🇬🇪, 8 points from 🇦🇲* - Czech Republic 🇨🇿, 1 point from 🇪🇪
Why in recaps the Danish song is not the same as during the performance in semi-final? In this video thera these two quite different versions. I guess that the one in the recaps is taken from reharsal, but I think it shouldn't take place...

The week Madeline McCann went missing and the start of the financial crisis that is pretty much still in the EU as it wasn't really fixed. Horrible times.
Czech Republic, Iceland, Estonia and Croatia were robbed that year! Instead we saw shit songs like the ones from Sweden and Turkey qualify and my country even gave 12 points to Sweden. What a joke! What were you thinking, people!?? 😲😲😲 Greetings from Denmark
worst show ever... only east european countries through???? they were the worst and countries like The Netherlands, Belgium,Israel and more west european countries had to go through... conclusion: eastern europe votes for itself.
