This was supposed to be the year of their lives! This was their opportunity to showcase their talent to the world! And they did! But they also has to go through a lot. It was not their responsibility but they acted and risked a lot of things. And I want to thank them for that!

The world can be a harsh place, and Eurovision always helps me to see more of the beauty of the world in a form of music and art, and especially the feeling of unity. This year I also felt the whole eurovision feeling was at risk, and it's hard to stay positive, but people like you bring a lot of that great feeling back, thank you !

Thank you Kostis, I love this so much! No one is going to make me feel guilty for having enjoyed Eurovision, despite all the chaos and disconfort. It is the fans' and the artists' show, and we should be the ones who make it. Looking forward to your next content, I always enjoy it ❤

I am so happy these people spoke up, and fought till the very end. Some, if not all, being traumatized in the midst of that. Thank you to all of you who put bravery before result, reputation and your personal safety. We needed you, and you did what you could given the situation. Thank you also to the traditional media as well as fan media who reported on the truth, and in that also exposed and showed the things we may never have known from behind the scenes. Your actions mattered as well.

I can relate so much to you, as ESC at times was what saved me during difficult moments in various periods during the years. Sadly, this year ESC needs to get some saving, and I can only cooperate and say as well - thank you to all the artists, who stood firm supporting humanity, light in the darkness, and equality. And the same big thanks to everyone there from the press, volunteers, organisers, who did the same under the highest pressure - thank you so so much for not being scared and figthing for this lovely, sometimes a bit silly contest, which we love so much. I have high hopes that our love for the ESC will take over the innfluence from powerful, scary parties, wishing to use it for their benefit instead of spreading music, love and unity all around. Much love ♥️ and it’s not over yet!

@Kostis_ESC 21 день назад

That's exactly why I love this competition! Because I can interact with people like you and we all have each other even if we don't really know each other! And yes! It's not over yet. And we also have these artists that came through for us ❤️

@rimuttt 21 день назад

Yessss! This community is amazing, it is filled with respect and love, and support to each other ♥️ and the bonus point - each year we get bunch of new artists, songs in our lives, and we can dance and sing along in a different places all around the world! This contest is unique, this community is wonderful, and such situations like we had this year is a reminder not only to others, but just as much to us, to ourselves, why we love this contest, what are our values, and what we stand for - I am overwhelmed from all the fans, artists, broadcasters, willing to do whatever it takes to bring back the core values to the ESC and to have a fresh start (a Renaissance!) next year at the place where it all started ☺️♥️ Kostis, much love and thanks to you, I love you videos 😍

I do feel guilty, but as always we point our finger to the consumer (which may have some decision on watching or not watching the contest) and not to the corporations. EBU, they are the big decision-makers and they did desapoint the mayority of the fandom. They did prove once more that Eurovision is not bc of art and unity, but bc of money and profit. I am most likely not watching the contest next year, but I will always be a fan of the ilusion that they made me feel. All of these years was like something desapointing here, something unfair there... but this year was too much...

I absolutly support all competitors ❤

@Kostis_ESC 21 день назад

Marko made it happen! But this is not a video only focused on the art and performance and growth. It's about something else and that's why I didn't mention him. If it was about the competition he would have been one of the firsts !!!

@motherofslavs8761 20 дней назад

I get where you are coming from Kostis! And I get it why Marko was not vocal about his stance. He has a long history of battling depression and anxiety that he is very open about (and that in Croatia, where to speak openly about mental health is still mocked, we are a very sad society in some regards) and I think he was just taking care of himself and staying out of the drama so he can do the job bestowed on him by Croatian televote. I don't know if you have seen his homecoming but he bursed into tears on stage after saying to the people "I hope I made you proud". He also admited that he does not know enough about the Isrl conflict to take a stance bit he also admited that he probably should educate himself more. Croatia was a collaborator of the Natzi regime in the ww2 so many of our people are very careful when it comes to taking sides because they don't want to be accused of antisemitism or associated with our ultra right ideology. And I am not saying that is the case with him but in general. Also, our education system is a bit skewed towards westerm centric history. He did speak up about the uncomfortable atmosphere surrounding that delegation. He also spoke kindly about all the participants and always had nice things to say about Nemo and others. It's a disaster what the Croatian media and many of the people is saying about Nemo and Bambie. I feel sorry for all the Croatian queer kids who have to listen to that for the last fiew days. They deserve better. Nemos song was just as great as ours and many others in the top 10.

@Kostis_ESC 20 дней назад

@@motherofslavs8761 Thank you for explaining to me a bit more about the culture in Croatia. It makes sense why Marko wasn't vocal, but also that was totally his choice! He didn't have to be. I still respect him as an artist and I love what he did at Eurovision! And yes I saw his homecoming video and it was very sweet. I hope people will stop being homophobic on TV cause this really affects the queer kids mentally. Anyway... Again, thank you for explaining ❤️

@motherofslavs8761 20 дней назад

@@Kostis_ESCI think to speak up is to engage in their propaganda war - and one has to have the courage and mental strength to do so. It's a scary thing to expose yourself to threats and accusations of antisemitism. That is why I especially admire the bravery of everyone that did speak out. I am still convinced that Joost taking a stand is what ultimately costed him the final. Not entirely but in the end that's what tipped the scale.

Lets not frame this as if Eden was a defensless victim being tomatoed Quasimodo style. That really wasnt the vibe. She's willingly decided to represent her country, which is up to very controversial stuff at the moment - namely bombing everyone and everything indiscriminately, comitting war crimes and starving out an entire population. Meanwhile EBU has chosen to take every possible step to ensure her safety and comfort, going as far as banning the European flag at the venue! These artists that were named all advocated PEACE, yet you dont think they were harassed and their voices and actions suppressed? It's all "poor Eden" --- the reality is it was all a sh*t show, poorly organized and exerting a ton of pressure on all artists involved.

@ds5379 21 день назад

@@tem8432 I haven't seen a single video where Eden was being rude. There are videos where Joost and Marina are being overtly rude (and kudos to Nemo for correcting her behaviour here), and Bambie hasn't stopped being super vocal of where they stand. I haven't seen Eden being rude to anybody, only continuing unphased in the face of such rudeness. Nevermind the audience's booing. Eden must totally have nerves of steel, and she won my respect and my vote. Multiple ones actually.

@tem8432 21 день назад

If you are talking about Joost saying "why not?" and Marina yawning, you have to consider that while the organizers did everything in their power to suppress them from expressing their thoughts, it was basically always operating in favor of Eden. She essentially just had to chill and let the organizers ensure that she would never be challenged - which is why Joost went "why not?" when she was told she didn't have to answer a challenging question. In the meantime, they're all being harrassed backstage with questions about Israel's participation. Not to mention footage of the Israeli delegation acting provicative. - Eden is a great performer there's no question there and yes it must have been a rough time to be in her shoes this year, but she's not as defenseless as your first message implied her to be and other artists definitely need some praise for going through what they did.

@ds5379 21 день назад

@@tem8432 well I shudder to think how she would have been treated if the EBU hadn't set some parameters then. We even had Greta Thunberg protesting outside the venue for crying out loud.

Sorry but i cant support the EBU after what happened, the behaviour of israeli press and no consequences for any of it, you can thank moroccanoil for that. Next, overreacting and disqualifying Joost without finding out whether the accusations were even valid. Lack of communication about that...i dont even like his song or him that much but WTF????What is this special treatment of some countries but then harshly overreacting to others ? This was the most politically driven tv show i have seen. Not even the most beautiful applause sound effect can overshadow the atmosphere in that arena, it looked like the EBU have tried to openly gaslight the viewers, like manipulative psychos. They deserved to be booed, theres no place here for a country that is committing war crimes and is simultaneously singing about how much of a victim they are. Theres no way i will pay anymore attention to this shitshow. Everything i was told about this contest is true, i just had to witness it for myself i guess. I got into Eurovision last year, and im leaving this year 😂 thanks for having me.
