this season was a wild ride and i really hope the ebu learns from this. also i hope martin resigns bc i cannot see that man anymore. anyways, see you guys next week for the last video which will also reveal the final mess counter of this year !!! ❤️🩹 ALSO JOOST KLEIN I LOVE YOU WE ALL LOVE YOU !!!!
@@BlackScorpio YEAH i honestly think Israel had won if Joost was in… cause Netherlands would win the televote and push everyone else down! This is just a theory though, feel free to share your own opinion
For me it's still absurd and kinda funny that the only guy who actually sang about uniting europe got kicked out. Even though he was ready to apologize publicly after what happened. Eurovision and ebu yells they have motto about united by music and peace, love and forgiveness for everybody but then they do this.. I just can't with them..
The ebu broke the arrangements to harass Joost. I knew something would happen as soon as he spoke during the press conference. Corrupt shit needs to be sued into oblivion
@@Markiboy3 I can apologize for something that I think is no big deal. Doesn't make me guilty at all. I can even apologize about having to apologize without really apologizing for the thing in the first place.
@@Markiboy3 he was ready to apologize even though the whole thing wasn't his fault. He was ready to apologize on his behalf. You know, you always need two persons for a conflict. The woman on the other hand didn't want to reconcile.
That's so crazy, because I remember reading about this guy who used to reeeeaaally hate jews too. So nice y'all finally find your place at the political spectrum.
@@PapaVanTwee5 He literally only did a "threatening movement" towards an intrusive and disrespectful camerawoman. He never touched her according to the Dutch broadcaster people there. This has been a disgusting smear campaign, and for what
im legit still SO upset abt the Joost thing. Like, they didnt even have the decency to tell the audience at home during the broadcast that the Netherlands was disqualified. People who only watched the finale will not even know that Joost was also supposed to be there. Disgusting behavior. "transparency" my ass EDIT: im so happy to see that at least the commentators of different countries did bring it up! i do still think Martin or one of the 2 hosts shouldve also clarified it during the beginning, cause if you watched it online (like youtube, for example), there was no way of knowing where NL had gone
Tell me about it. If this shit show fiasko was in Finland I woud have been on the street riots my self. The absolute nerve of them to let Israel be there and throw out Netherlands. Sick and disgusting.
Imagine being a young person of 26, you get the big opportunity to represent your country after being selected through many other songs and you get to hear you are the first person to ever be disqualified. What an utter nonsense this year's EBU was. Completely invisible to the criticisms and matters where it mattered most. As a Dutch fan I cannot possibly describe how deflated I felt this year. Great on Nemo for winning it though, they were amazing. But F the EBU.
@@BrynjarReynisson I agree the photographer was out of line, but there is a way to deal with things. This grown man acted like a tantrum child more than once and I don't think there should be room for that kind of behavior. He tripped by hisn own foot
@@DashiSama ok so if you were emotionally charged and someone kept invading your privacy -- that you were promised -- repeatedly, even after you've asked them to stop, you just wouldn't lash out in any way at all?????????? you'd just stand there quietly and take it?????????????
@@grrumakemeangry Ah yes nobody liked Croatia who was literally 1st in the televote, beating Israel which is at war, while your Nemo is 5th and nobody will care about him in a span of few weeks. Look at the charts, look at the like/dislike ratio. It speaks for itself
@razrhiannaspiers8506 Thank you! I just made a comment about that exact thing, and was wrecking my brain how those were called… ‘Postcard’ wouldn’t seem that hard a word to remember, one would think, but there you are 😅
Germany coming in 12th making my brain shortcircuit😭 well done Isaak I’m so proud. And I was shitting on the staging after semi 1 but it’s fine now. Our staging is the state of the EBU💀
My first reaction on their name was: "They named themself nobody???" That is what nemo means, it means no one. Random knowledge I have by being a Nightwish fan.
@alexdoorn234 They've said in interviews that's why their parents picked that name. Their reasoning was that if they started as "no one", they could become anyone
Was that one of the other good things that happened in this year’s Eurovision? Although I was happy to hear I Love It from Icona Pop and Sun Is Shining by Axwell & Ingrosso, it wasn’t fitting for the controversies
they really need to either redesign in or put in some dang support lol. if you have a spare trophy for when the winner inevitably breaks it, you have a bad trophy design
@@hestiahearth4435 i mean i guess you are right, but at this point this design is so iconic and memorable, it would surely be a huge controversy if they changed it
@@s.hiessl149 I don't know about "huge controversy". After this year, I think we know what that looks like. Honestly, changing the trophy would be a walk in the park in comparison.
@epislog178 I think the presentation, and Petra in particular, was hilarious at several occasions. Great humour, especially that little clip she made, with that scarf blowing in front of her face 😅
Norway got my vote ....(.but the UK got zero public votes so what the hell do I know - btw I thought the UK song was poor but Zero points a little harsh.)....Norway deserved better
my heart melted when bambie crowned nemo eurovision was a mess this year, but i think we've seen truly how it unites people. all the booeing, the participants friendships and all (which always present but this year is especially, also showing how it's important to not only win but to share a moment with each other). all artists did great!!
@@olehoole4418 I guess seeing that the audience at home crowned us Israel as 2nd place did you a lot of good in your heart, if not that's okay you can stay mad. How good to see that the booing voices and bully competitors do not represent what the world really thinks
@@thebase89 Ireland constantly whined about Israel's inclusion, including trying to get them disqualified. The Greek performer, who has an Arab father, was pretending to fall asleep and yawn etc when Israel were being asked questions in a press conference.
@@Markiboy3 she was harassed multiple times by Isr team. As well as the dutch team and Spanish press. They proved not to belong here. Not to mention the whole influencing of the popular vote.. Russia out, them out.
@@Markiboy3as they deserve. Isreal shouldnt be competing in the first place. Also why does everyone have to make it a race thing about marina? As soon as she disagrees with you shes "got an arab father" and "only half greek"
Croatia won, the Netherlands should not have been banned. Abolish jury voting again, we had only people's votes from 1997-2009 with no jury interference.
Switzerland won and thank god for juries otherwise that genocidal country would've won..... if NL didn't disqualified, they would've won televotes, but unfortunately due to their disqualification, all NL votes went to croatia
That period was just poor. If we go back to televote only, I’m out. Like the televotes just gave Portugal 18 points and Finland over 30. The Code was a deserved winner. That Rim Ting song was more or less a watered down copy of a Rammstein tune. It was a party song. And party songs often get lots of points from the televotes. But on the other hand, the juries have to change. 5 «uniform» members is not good enough.
I had an odd dream yesterday... I dreamed i was at an armenian wedding where an irish witch was performing a ritual ...walked into the kitchen and saw a strange unplucked pink chicken rotating in a microwaive..later we watched a wierd performance of a woman singing at gynocologist exam...all men at the wedding were dressed very oddly tbh..and last thing i remember at the end of the wedding chicked escaped from the microwaive and broke all of the glass in the house... now seeing this video i think this was actually eurovision...wierd
Love that Germany is celebrating not being last in every comment section, it's adorable. I actually really loved your song and the staging was awesome. Germany definitely deserved more points this year
Bambi crowning Nemo after their win and the Greek artist sitting slumped back in her chair cause she was not expecting those 12 points are my 2 favourite moments from this year’s shitshow
It was so sweet how he kept touching the crown while walking away, unsure whether to keep it or not. It looked like it hurt or at least distracting wearing it but he didn't want to take it off.
I can understand the confusion of the Greek singer. After hearing "12 points go to Switzerland" 293757 times in a row I also wouldn't expect it. The jury voting this year was the most boring and predictable I remember ever.
5:36 as a sapphic I can confirm + raiven was robbed she did not deserve third last 😭 I expected at least top ten for my girl but no people apparently don’t like sirens 😀🔫
Thank you for being brave and speaking up. I see that there are many channel here that stay quiet about the problems regarding Ebus actions. Probably many channel don't want to be kicked out of next years press room. But we need to come together and demand for a change. At the moment the artists are once again been left alone raising up the issues regarding Eurovision. We need to back them up and speak up.
Beautiful yet bad mess. Switzerland won, Croatia lost. Its like Loreen and Käärijä again, but they are more loved. I still think that both deserve to share their trophies. Nemo won, they are shocked and i am too, since i didn't know that Nemo is that jury good, and its good! Croatia, while being in 2nd place i am actually proud for. I voted for this, but it's nice seeing a fellow country win Eurovision well. Ireland deserves it, by being one of the worst places before, now being just 6th. Hope Ireland sends unique things. Luktelk. Ukraine also did AMAZING. PERFECT. PERFECT, PURE PERFECTION. No words, no need to explain. Greece was undeserved, same as Norway (idk why they got last) Finland, Estonia, Latvia and more. I really think that with 100 points, UK could have easily breached top 10. Idk why people hate Brits so much. Don't forget underrated stuff too such as Serbia and more. And, to conclude this, THIS WAS A CRAZY YEAR. I HAVE NO WORDS. We almost got a threat for a worst case scenario, but top 4 avoided it and did it flawlessly. We really don't want to go all out in 2025 in a random country that is bad. Also, the hosts were good too (hi Martin, i hate you.) (Hi Petra, you are one of the best) And also, THANKS FOR EVERYONE GOING INTO MALMO BECAUSE THIS WAS EXTREMELY CRAZY LIKE 1000000% #JUSTICEFORJOOST
i don't think people hate brits it was just a really meh performance, i wouldn't say deserving of no points atall as it wasn't the worst performance but vocally not great and performance wise only the end was memorable, the in the box just felt like a 2000s music video. The UK has many amazing performers (Olly is but not vocally, more festival dance type stuff) i don't know why they struggle so much to pick the right one.
8:24 Martin getting Booed part 2 is my favourite moment. It already starts loud, but then it just shifts to this super loud booo sound with not a single cheer to be heard. It gives me chills every time. Regardless of who you want to call the winner of the night, we can all agree ebu lost that day.
@leonardaperic8981 he is the face of the EBU, and the ebu has been terrible this year. EBU banned Russia but not Israel. EBU disqualified Joost Klein. EBU did not respond to the complaints about the behaviour of the Israelian team (they were assholes behind the scenes).
@@Ronja744 check out the australian broadcaster poll, where they ask the viewers their favourites - see who is at the bottom, and then see who topped their televote. it's more than a little strange.
6:37 Kinda wish ”We just love esc too much” was a finale interval act because that was the only thing CLOSE to Love Love Peace Peace. Also lost my shit at the dancing moomins in that number. But, I also think maybe they needed to have some mid interval acts in the finale because it was clear they just wanted to get through the night after all the messes djfifiiwbr
I agree, the 2nd semifinal interval act was more memorable than the finale's. I vaguely remember Loreen at the intergalactic gynecologist... ok I stole that comment from Austrian tv (Andi Knoll).
Kaaraja was originally going to give Netherlands points but pulled out after all the stuff went down. We love ESC too Much wouldn't of ran as intended because there was no way he was going on stage after all that. It's sad because I would love him to become one of the evergreens that might pop in every now and again but I think this year will have really soured the idea for him : (
I didn't see the flags part, Iolanda really seemed pissed. I saw her performance and I immediately though something was off comparing to the previous ones. I would really want to know what did happen before the show
I'm going to get flagged for spamming , cuz I just keep having to tell people what happened :') One of the countries was harassing other countries, it was the delegation AND the broadcaster for you know who. The countries harassed were: Portugal, Netherlands, Ireland, Switzerland and Greece. (At least these were the 5 reported on news and tiktoks made by press there) After the Netherlands DQ on Saturday afternoon an emergency meeting had to be called, at least Portugal and Ireland were threatning to withdraw due to the harassment. Iolanda was probably pissed at WTV happened in that meeting, Because, in the end of the day what we know is: Netherlands got DQ'd, Portugal got censored, and the offenders ? Nothing happened to them. Iolanda got censored after wearing nails with palestinian motifs and saying "peace will prevail" at the end of her performance. Eurovision didn't upload her performance on the youtube channel until the televote was closed. And even then, only uploaded the performance after heavy pressure from the Portuguese broadcaster. What happened to Joost was clearly done on purpose, the person was trying to get a reaction out of him, and when he didn't hit her or get violent, the gesture he made was enough. All because he said "why not?" during a press conference when someone told you know who, that they didn't have to answer a question. He dared ask a simple question. After the flag parade (practice I believe) the incident with Joost happens. Then the emergency meeting the day after that. It's clear that all of this is connected. The victims are all getting penalized and the harassers got an amazing televote score and no Joost. Notice how the 5 countries complaining of harassment were fan favorites, the only fan favorite that didn't complain was Croatia (As far as I know at least, didn't read any reports mentioning them) Nemo in the end repeats that peace will prevail. It was really wholesome of him, they really tried to cut him off when he said that :')
@@Valathia Thank you so much 🙏🏼 I thought what happened with Joost was on Thursday night. But was still allowed for the flag parade practice. Probably the meeting was happening around that time, and when it came to him rehearsing, they have taken him out. Anyways The footage should be released of what happened. The camara person was recording I think.
@@ValathiaI like the way you broke things down. I'm sad for those participants, but glad one of them won! (Even tho I wanted Croatia, Nemo is a deserved winner. My sister like his performance. She only watch the final)
@Valathia, thanks for more info. I was aware of Iolanda's nails and of what she said at the end of the song. Concerning the video of the grand final, besides being posted late on RU-vid the video posted on FB and Instagram is the one of the semi-final as it was the one of the grand final (no nails with the Palestian keffiyeh pattern on them). I tried to comment that on Instagram but the comments are blocked.
@@Valathia thanks for breaking it down. i also felt like it was such a show of selective morals when they said it wasn‘t allowed to bring flags or merchandise from non-competing countries (a very broad description especially when they only wanted to censor palestinian flags) but then within the first 15mins of the grand finals they show a person with an ecuadorian scarf for whatever reason and they don‘t even show this person only once, they kept cutting back to them a few times. the ebu is such a joke and the controversies keep piling up this year, i really hope to see at least a few of the ebu‘s representatives resign after this shitshow
Am I the only one who thought she was literally screaming and not singing? that song is pretty in recording, but was very badly performed on stage and sounded like screaming out of tune.
i mean bambie thug got censored because of facial makeup that was in a writing system nobody uses anymore and just calling for a ceasefire (without any political affiliation, just a ceasefire) and they also had to change that. the ebu sucks and we all know it
Tbh, as a Croatian. I got experience from 2018 FIFA WC. First day: sad Next day: Being 2nd is actually good. I am just thankful that national television got good fist in face. Because question formed. "If he was reserve. How much chances like him failed before" ? Also, they (television) would suck at organising it anyway.
The way i'm still grieving about the fact that luxembourg was the only country from the benelux to peform in the final, Joost and mustii both were in my top 5, if not top 3
Crown the witch❌ Be crowned by the witch ✅ But fr tho, I screamed when Bambie Thug crowned Nemo, and then Nemo wore the crown for the winners performance with Bambie cheering, love them both!
A huge fucking mess this year. Never know this much controversy around the show. Netherlands being punished (probably) unfairly, Israel getting max televote points from several countries because of politics (I’ve heard much talk online of people who don’t even watch Eurovision who claimed they were gonna vote for Israel out of spite in the UK), Martin getting boos, Nemo accidentally breaking the trophy. (It’s also the first time since at least 2019 when the bookies favourite hasn’t won)
Actually for the Netherlands incident, the Swedish camerawoman was harassing Joost. She was filming him with his consent and also in a room where photography isn’t permitted. He kept telling her to stop but ignored. She finally did when he did a gesture to the camera, not hit the woman. Another thing I heard about the incident is how he also snapped when making a dead parent joke
@@Septixcake That was 7 days ago. I watched more recent videos and read comments, realizing my own comment is what seems to happen except for the dead parent part
According to RTP's President of the Council of Administration, iolanda's grand final performance's upload was postponed due to the "presence of palestinian symbols", more precisely on her nails. As a response, RTP wrote an email saying "what does that has go to do with anything?".
I think Norway and Georgia were really underrated and the ''juries'' robbed my favourite Croatia of their first win ever. Anyways, I'm proud of Ireland and Portugal being in the top 10. I hope sommething changes in the EBU and I hope for jury reform because the gap between Switzerland and France (over 150 points was too high) and mabe 60/40. Anyway, thank you for your videos and let's enjoy music and our favourites! MO-resign Justice for Joost
I'm usually the first one to say France was robbed. Although Slime man has a beautiful voice and sang amazingly, the performance in the semis. got me bad.... it was so... Azeiteiro.. I don't know how to say this in english xD it trully was... slimmy? In Portugal we say, it had so much olive oil I nearly slip and fell. I guess greaseball is the closest expression? xD It was the way he booped the camera, and pretended to lift the camera like he was lifting his lovers chin, and I can't. I JUST CANT XD I Actually really enjoyed the. song before and thought it was a very strong candidate xD
Nemo being my first ever vote in only 3 years of watching ESC was so worth it, and a flight to Switzerland is cheaper than a train in my own country, about as disappointing as the 0 point singers we keep sending
Not going to lie, Ukraine getting their televote result and overtaking Israel as the first on the score board was so satisfying to me. Their song and staging were amazing.
I am from the US and the whole thing is positively confusing, Netherlands was disqualified because the guy told a camera woman to back off, and Israel gets pity points? Who makes these rules?
Nemo truely has a heart of gold and i love them so much. I can not stand the hate they receive after doing such an amazing job and being a super deserving winner.
SO happy that common sense prevailed and a propaganda win for Bibi wasn't bought. Massive congrats to Nemo, Baby Lasagna, Slimane, Alyona & Jerry, Ladaniva, M&M, Angelina, Iolanda, Marina, Tali, Isaak (to everyone who said Nil Points about him, suck it) and Bambie. Commiserations for Raiven, Gate, Nutsa, Nebulossa, Windows 95 Man and 5miinust & Puulup. Hugs to Olly, I'm sorry it didn't work out for our UK boy this year but I hope he had a good time in the circumstances, and made the best of it. JUSTICE FOR JOOST KLEIN. Noel Curran and Martin Osterdahl to resign - to reword a catchphrase, after everything you did to compromise, and didn't do to protect, the integrity of this beautiful contest, ESPECIALLY in a year like this one, to both of you - you're good to GO.
If I could like your comment eleventy billion times I would. I must take a leaf out of Bibi's book and try see if I can buy more. You are spot on about everything!
That was me last year when Käärijä didn't win, but now Nemo did and I'm soo happy for them I started crying out of excitement omg when they won I'm so happy
I was chill either way tbh but it would've been great to see Croatia win for the first time ever 😢 I don't like this new trend of the jury pretty much all giving 12 to the same song
this year broke my heart. this was a mess in the worst way possible and i cannot comprehend it all. all i know is that i’m insanely proud of nemo and they really deserved that win 100%. hoping for huge changes coming in eurovision so i can enjoy it like i used to
@@s1lent_gr croatia deserved to win too! but there is a one winner that we should respect. we should be happy israel didn’t win instead of fighting like this between croatia and switzerland fans. both nemo and baby lasagna were amazing and 2 place is a really high place too and he brought croatia their best ever result. he succeeded either way.
@@Shiswd if one of those countries won, it would be absolutely deserved. switzerland won, it is also deserved. let’s recognise nemo’s hard work and dedication too.
5:32 - I love this moment so much - the little scream as the audience responded :D Kaleen rocked this so hard she snuck into my top 6 (amongst which I have San Marino, Ireland, Norway, Czeckia and Slovenia)
@@s.hiessl149 don't worry, Armenia was number 7 and Switzerland number 9 :) *also, Swiss victory was absolutely deserved - the performance was incredible
For a competition that's supposedly not political they do everything they can to show they're political from only banning politics they don't like and promoting others to banning artists who voice their opposition to having jurys who vote based on politics.
Love that part where The Netherlands decided to give the EBU a clear booing by pulling out of the juries segment last moment, after the EBU forced them to still air the show because of their contract.
Yes congrats, it is a great feeling :) I wasn't born yet when the Netherlands won before Duncan Laurence in 2019 and that hit home so savour that feeling!!
congrats to your country, it was so deserved! as an austrian, i can speak from experience (since we won in 2014 and hosted in 2015): the best plan of action is to get your hands on esc tickets as fast as possible, plan the whole thing out with friends or family or whoever you know who also loves eurovision, shitpost martin österdahl in hopes of making him resign because fuck that guy and then have a grand time at eurovision. (also stream nemo‘s music, it‘s always good to drive engagement and get them paid)
@@s.hiessl149 thing is I don't know any other ESC fan in Switzerland, but I will definitely try to go next year! thanks for all the kind tips ❤ und Kaleen war eine meiner favoritinnen, sehr schade dass es nicht für mehr reichte...
Please people do not attack me. I mean well and love but why are Israel and Australia in the Eurovision? They are not Europe. Why was Israel allowed to send a song with a political undertone?
@@SynthhInHD they changed some words and its title but it was in essence the same song, same message. Well at least that’s how I and many others experienced it. Please I do not want to fight with any one, this is only my opinion.
as second question was answered, ill go with first, easily, because their national broadcasters belong to EBU, so they're allowed to, there's full list of countries on wikipedia and there's some countries from asia or africa but if they don't wanto to participate in eurovision they're allowed to
5:24 “Your microphone thing was boring...”. Well... Slimane literally performed an incredible acapella in front of millions of viewers. Whether you like the song or not, it's probably the best voice of this edition. He has incredible control and power in his voice. Between commercial and electro songs, it sometimes feels good to remind people what singing is. Fortunately it's a song contest and not a singing one.
I am happy for Switzerland, truly. It blew me away that Nemo was able to do all that stage work and still find the breath and control to sing. That said, Croatia deserved the win. It would have been their first win. Armenia being top 10 made me happy. Norway got robbed. Netherlands' DQ was utterly pathetic and I know Joost was non-violent but I will be violent for Joost.
The audience wasn't just booing Martin at 7:06, they were booing at the whole EBU for disqualifying Joost Klein since he was supposed to perform at that time during the show And at 8:25, the Netherlands were supposed to give their points but the Netherlands didn't want to participate in any way anymore after the disqualification. Once again, the audience was booing at EBU #FREEJOOST
Thank you for your hilarious recaps, I'm a huge fan of your videos Kat !! I was so upset that Joost wasn't there, I couldn't get it out of my mind all night. That was a total dumpster fire. But I am SOOOOO happy for Nemo, they are so talented and versatile and they deserved the win this year !
