I think the reason he sings slightly different in the live version is because he is on a show he has dreamt of competing in since he began his music career, and the entire stadium was singing along to his song. Having an emotional moment like that while singing is bound to make you sound more emotional, like he does in the live version. He doesnt sound emotional in the same way at his own shows.
he won in our hearts, getting disqualified for not wanting some stranger in your face while you’re incredibly nervous is completely reasonable, and the music video almost made me cry
Reasonable Yes. Who t f likes people filming like that. But that woman was a part of the production.. and someone doing shitty stuff does not gives u the right to do whatever
@@rasmusnilsson123 Here they claim that the production agreed beforehand not to film him if that's true that put things in an different situation. If that agreement is on paper i have no idea..
Well… he is extremely out of breath and airy in the live performance. It kinda throws you off. Other contestants were capable of running dancing and jumping around while singing much more demanding songs.
@@Randomly1234very true and the fact that this song isn’t even difficult vocally makes it so much more disappointing it is a catchy song but definitely not a winner in my opinion and the performance sucks I can’t even enjoy it.studio is good tho
@@Flight5imkid He was disqualified from the eurovision because he was getting harassed by a photographer and he made a “threatening” gesture towards them
You are my sunshine my only sunshine you make me happy when sky's are gray you'll never know dear how much I love you please don't take my sunshine away
This song is actually about joost his father, his father passed away when he was only 12 yrs old and when he was around 13 his mother passed away too. Thats why hes always on the run for his sadness and always needs to find distraction. Thats why the song name are 2 words combined: Europa and papa combined europapa. The message of the song is that u need to leave behind all the traumatic experiences and sad things that happend in ur life. Sounds like a happy energetic song, but if you dive deeper its actually very sad
His voice sounds brilliant and natural in both. The crowd adored him and he would’ve won but he proved himself to be the most successful contestant this year without Eurovision anyway!
Bro one time bulgaria shouldve won but got 2nd place like eurovision doesnt rate the songs properly its just rlly messed up and ye he shouldve won just for the sake of his family like it doesnt matter if they dont like it alot and just hate on it for no reasson like let him have hapiness and anyway it was so good it shouldve been the winner
@@lrn_jelle4403what happened is a woman filming him in the backstage. Idk if it's real or not but they said theres a contract that doesn't allow people record at the backstage. And the reason he did that because after blocking the camera the woman start mocking his dead dad that's why I think hes do the bad gesture.
It is supposed to be a star, same as on the European Union flag. It becomes a star when he puts his elbows out and bends them. But I agree It is symbolism and way over the top. Almost everything is at the European song contest.
Sad we couldn't see him perform at the final, in the final all the artists brings that extra extra extra passion, energy and soul, still, he is good and that song have a lot of meaning and depth in a party banger disguise.
