Eurovison 2021 was one of the best levels of all time (especially the first 3: Italy, France and Switzerland) Italy won but if France or Switzerland had won it wouldn't have shocked anyone because the 3 are great. Also a symbolic competition because the non-English speaking countries who sang in English with mundane and unnecessary songs were all punished! This competition returns to what it would never have ceased to be -> Representative of the culture and diversity of countries ...
@@KittenCritters no lol. Ukraine sang in their own language and came 2nd with the televote, only coming 5th because the juries don’t like different music. the latin countries just sent great songs this year.
That high note sounded so resonant and ethereal towards the end, I really got goosebumps. I wonder if it was a vocal technique or a produced sound effect
@@labinotsherifi8602 Don't you think he might consider himself Swiss too? He's born and raised in Switzerland. I think he's able to embrace his Albanian roots while also calling himself Swiss.
Hi! He got me fascinated since the first time I heard this song. Oh my God... And with the official video or this performance it's even more perfect. It always gives me goosebumps, no matter how many times I hear it or watch his performance. He's something else. Many times you find singers who are perfect technically but they don't transmit the emotion, so it's useless. He's the opposite to those. Just takes me to another dimension, just with his voice. And, as you have seen, the lyrics are also very deep. I adore him. I became a fan of his since the minute one.
I think this song would have won in a previous year for sure. But 2021 was the boss battle of Eurovision, almost all songs where pretty good or even great. I saved multiple songs of that year in my playlists and I usually only like one or two songs out of every competition.
Liked the vid, before I even started it. Know this is going to be another beauty!! And yes, the video is also worth a watch, definitely. And if you still want more: he also has an entry in Eurovision 2020, the one that never was...., also worth a listen to. Répondez-moi.
Thank you so much Dereck to take your time to discover more of Gjon, he is really fantastic and deserve à beautiful international career. You can also see his song Babi and Répondez-moi.
@@roose85723 He has also some unreleased songs that he and his band have performed in concerts, for example this one: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-syq2tIzMyQg.html
check out the song with the official video. The implementation is fantastic and supports the drama. absolutely worth seeing and for me, the music video of the year
I've seen a couple of videos of you but it's the first time that I see you not moving that much, it makes me feel weird 😅 but yeah, he has that thing in his voice that just makes me quiet. I'm so happy he finished so high, he deserves it! ❤
I would love for you to react to Australia's contribution this year -- Not the Same by Sheldon Riley. It would be fun to see it, considering how A is totally NOT Europe, haha. It was actually ny favourite contribution this year, and I'm a huge ESC nerd. The whole "not the same" lyrics didn't go over that well over here in Europe, considering the war in Ukraine, aaaand a song that's about being on the autism spectrum and gay with those kind of lyrics wasn't very well suited... Anyhow! You got a new subscriber! I've seen 4 videos by you now, and I like what you do. Your reactions are on point.
I loved your comprehensive feedback on his performance, especially making sure to take the meaning of the words into account. Your organization was en pointe.
French here, HE SHOULD'VE WON EUROVISION OMFG he's insanely talented, like, he's an alien at this point, I really hope he will have an even broader recognition.
First time here. Seriously, hearing all the things like subscribing and stuff like that sounds just like a flight attendance. It's so fast, I can't even make words of it.
gjon's tears was a contestant in The Voice France. I hope you can see his videos, he was really unique, crazy and he has such a powerful voice! Amazing! Not sure you can see the videos from US though.. If you can, take a look at another contestant called "anne sila", she's amazing!
Gjon's Tears was also the representative for Switzerland in 2020, the year the contest was cancelled because of Covid. His song was Répondez-moi. Although I loved Tout l'universe, Répondez-moi is even better, imo.
Generally the top 5 were very good and it could've gone any way. I honestly didnt care who won as I loved all of the top 6 were really good. But it really was between Italy, France & Switzerland.
Listen Barbara Voila it's amazing too. And for french artist u can listen Christine & The Queens, Bilal Hassani, Clara Luciani, Suzane, Yelle and Shy'm
This is a fantastic song. I´ll just leave my comment here and only with good intentions. Just watched a few episodes of a series on Netflix called "This is pop" Who invented autotune and why? When did the public first notice that is was used? Just seen three episodes so far. So interesting.
Dereck, thank you for your work. About Gjon's Tears, he has released a new single "silhouette" if you are interested in making a comment about it. Thank you in advance.
Il a participé à l'émission concours The Voice France 2019, et il est revenu y participer une 2eme fois dans l'édition spéciale All Star, en 2021, mais le All Star à été gagné pas Anne Sila. Parmi les concurrents de The Voice France, plusieurs font actuellement carrière comme Amir, Louane, Kenji Girac, Slimane, Claudio Capéo, le duo Fréro Delavega, Luc Arbogast (une sorte de troubadour médiéval que je conseille vraiment d'écouter). A écouter, aussi, en attendant que leurs carrières décollent: MB14, Louis Delort et Will Barber (sa 1ere audition sur "Another Brick In The Wall" était tellement top qu'elle est allée jusqu'aux oreilles du groupe Pink Floyd). He took part in The Voice France 2019 competition program, and he returned to participate a second time in the special All Star edition, in 2021, but the All Star was won by Anne Sila. Among the competitors of The Voice France, several are currently making careers such as Amir, Louane, Kenji Girac, Slimane, Claudio Capéo, the duo Fréro Delavega, Luc Arbogast (a kind of medieval troubadour that I really recommend listening to). To listen, too, while waiting for their careers to take off: MB14, Louis Delort and Will Barber (his first audition on "Another Brick In The Wall" was so top that it went to the ears of the group Pink Floyd).
Hope to see you again more focussing on international chart hits of the 80s & 90s! You did so when i discovered and started to love your channel. A little bit too much french orientation in my opinion.
This is the winner of jurors vote in 2021, immediately befoe the public votes that were less favourable unfortunately to sink to 3rd overall after Italy and France.
Hello Dereck a very beautiful voice..Dereck if you tant hear magnificent cover watch the cover of Sting Fragile sung by Maelle and Gulaan in 2018 in the Voice France show Thank you 🥰🥰
