Vocal Coach Reacts to Bambi Thug 'Doomsday Blue' Ireland Eurovision 2024 

it's live screaming and it doesn't hurt because I have a scream coach

5:29 Ireland went from 30th in the odds to top 10 after selecting her so so far it's the safest qualifier we have. Good luck from Czechia

I see this going to the Final 100%. There will be people who hate it, but there will also be hardcore fans who love it and are definitely voting. That's wa-ay better than having an OK song that everyone kinda likes but no one will vote for.

Dont forget the Irish invented halloween.

I love it so different from the cheesy predictable norms that normally frequent Eurovision, it’s been in head all day… Keep watching it’s got an amazing hook ..

I’m really looking forward to your take on this one 🫣

I'm so proud of Ireland giving Bambie the opportunity to show what talent we have on this island. Most of our big artist did not make it where they are by playing safe. I do wish though that RTE, the television station that hosted this had better sound mixing. Excited to see this on the big stage with bigger production and fine tuning.

Listen to it three times and it grabs you. It is Art.

Celtic symbolisms everywhere in this production Georgina, Banshees, white witchcraft/ are all part of Irish mythology and Culture …the screams were live, and her performance was amazing in a tiny studio…this is astonishingly good! 12 pts from Switzerland 🪩🔥🪩🇨🇭

There are actually a lot of nice Celtic elements in the song and performance. Their dress is a dark version of an Irish dancing dress and the symbols on the backing dancers and the walls is ancient Irish writing called Ogham. As for the song itself, the more screeching part of the vocals seems inspired by traditional Irish keening music which is the style used by the Cranberries in the song Zombie.

This is pure artistry and I love it beyond words!🖤✨️🌙⛧ Being a part of the Gothic scene for decades, I feel deeply touched by having a voice speaking up for all of us dark souls, alternative minds and also for queer people who absolutely need representation! Many people watching Eurovision 2024 will be as surprised and shocked as you are, but this is what will make them vote for Bambie like crazy!🔥 And if you ask me, they deserve it because they are not only a boundless and transcendental artist, but also a beautiful soul and heartwarming human being. Let's do this, Ireland - I'm with you!🖤✨️🌙

Keep listening to it and it WILL get under your skin in the end. At first, I thought what the Hell was that! Twenty views later, I'm a total fan of it. It's sure entertainment and the way Bambie performs the song just adds the right combination of weird and wonderful. The song needs to stand out from all the other songs in Eurovision. Therefore, objective ACHIEVED! It's an original song, so the creator of it is always going to be right in the way they present it. GOOD LUCK, BAMBIE THUG!🍀☀️🎼🏆🎖️

When I tell you I was WAITING for this one 😂❤ I personally find the song great and unique, and the performance has really elevated it for me 🙂 Ireland is back in the game!

I totally love it. It's sooo unique! And the rest of her songs... amazing! So happy that I could discover her.

Ireland is my favorite this year. It's so artistic, the storytelling, her voice, her screaming, I love it!

Ooh I can’t wait for your reaction !

Let me tell you, I am so after weird this year after watching that performance. I actually love it! Wasnt expecting to but it kept my attention the whole time and completely sucked me in. I think its absolutely fantastic. And their voice works with all the genres in the song.

Bambie Thug is artistic, quirky, unique and i really wish Ireland can be qualified this year.

They're giving me Ariel Burdett "Holistic Vocal Coach" vibes and I'm here for it.

It's all about irony, in name of artist...bambi opposite thug, dance styles ...rage opposite pretty, screaming vocals opposite soft....genius☘️🤔😬 It's a reflection of our times, the polarized society we live it. Ireland is changing. Very current.

Delighted to find your Eurovision videos for 2024 Georgina. Love your channel. Sending you a virtual big hug from Las Vegas.

It's genius, artistically brilliant. I loved the fact that you didn't know what was going to happen next. They call the music genre ouja pop. There are so many layers to it - the meaning, if you look at some of the actual lyrics. On one level, you'd think they were casting a spell but there is so much more to it. Those blue parts, I took to be about a toxic relationship, heartbreak, the deceit/betrayal and the anguish. The first line in the chorus is 'I, I, I know you're living a lie', someone hiding behind a facade. Those softer moments are quite melancholy, that their love is unreturned and their lover would prefer a star rather than the moon. Then you have the bridge where they use red lights. Red is for love, romance, passion. There is an outpouring of emotion, that they would do absolutely anything for romance even though it is emotionally draining but to their lover, their feelings are just another shade of blue - ignored. To me the screaming at the end is the intense pain they are feeling. This is just my interpretation.

This was my favorite of the songs going in, and I think Bambie nailed the performance. I'm so happy Ireland sent them to Eurovision! I can't wait to see what they do on the big stage.

This BY FAR got the most applause in the studio. They absolutely loved Bambie Thug!!

Ireland really wanted something different out of the box this year and this really suits perfect,we are all sick of getting nowhere with normal singers and songs 💚

Finally Ireland will be back in the Final!

I LIVE, but then I've always loved weird and alternative. To me it feels like a Tim Burton take on a Grimm fairytale with shades of early Marilyn Manson meets Kate Bush all rolled into one and filtered through a unique Bambi Thug filter. They're awesome!

I have become obsessed with this song all week. So happy we are sending Bambie to the main stage

I'm looking forward to the 9th circle of hell hosting Eurovision 2025. 🔥

Absolutely love it. Think she's amazing.

This is not for a Voice Coach to comment on. It's way outside your world. Eurovision needs different.

The screams at the end are definitely live, ontop of the melodic repeating of "bluee" in the track. I think they sounded very strong and controlled actually, but they could be quite damaging thats true. I suppose the benefit of it being Eurovision is its really just 2 main performances haha, so not too much strain on the voice

The More I listen to it the more I love it 🥰 and I'm a middle aged woman 🤣

Lol can’t wait 😂

Their screaming/growling is not playback. It does not hurt your voice if you're doing it correctly. :)

Welcome to Ireland missus 😂 we're more complex than "Celtic sounds".

The screams were 100% live I promise you. Give it a chance Georgina please. I loved it so much from the moment I heard the studio cut and hearing Bambie live and seeing they're vision for the stage show blew me away. I'm so proud of them. It's actually really good lyrically too. Hope you are keeping good x 🇮🇪 ❤

It‘s different… i like it 👍

Weird is wonderful. I loved it. Hope Ireland gets through with this song, haven't watched it in years but this song makes me want to watch again

I loved the performance. I think it's the best thing Ireland has sent in a long, long time -- perhaps since the 90s.

This song has really grown on me, especially after watching the official video. I really hope it makes the finals! ❤

I’m glad I’m not the only one confused🤣

The screaming at the end was absolutely live

She is so real 💀😭😭

"I really don't know what to say" : same reaction here. I put it separately from the others when I started ranking this year's entries, because I can't decide if I love it or don't care about it. Points for the voice and the originality though !

This is brilliant watch the space Ireland will definitely qualify this year love it

This song will include more people in all societies, awaken up more people because the world is sick and we live on a lie in matrix 3D world and she also illustrates inner deamons, personel issues and tell about the bright side of life. A masterpiece with Avada Kadavra from Harry Potter. Love from Denmark ❤❤❤ Yes Doomsday in all World coming and Away from the děpştatə and ego death inside out ourselves and more high frequensies to light and love

Get with it Georgina; this is epic - the more you indulge the more you’ll appreciate it; at Eurovision this is going to slay!! Top 10 for sure!!!! It’s awesome… creative, dynamic, experimental, and definitely original - well done Ireland; Bambie Thug is great!!!! 😎❣️👍🏼

G - I am your biggest fan man but thank good Ireland are trying something different! Austria did one year and stole the show! Let’s go 🇮🇪

I'm so glad i grew up on 80's 90's music...

At the moment this is the most interesting and innovative song already selected for ESC, I am quite confident it will be shown quite improved at Malmo, and will be fascinating.

Thank you Ireland for introducing us to Bambie Thug. Watch it multiple times it will grow on you. This song is so amazing and unique! My top pick so far for ESC 2024! Cannot wait to see what the staging will look like! If you dig this, check out Bambie’s song Tsunami 11:11. It’s amazing as well!

I think that scream was live - loved it

It’s so different and random! I love it 🖤

Bambi has a musical theatre background. If you look at it through that lens, it may become clearer what we have here. Basically a 3 minute Tim Burton/ Rocky Horror performance. She was limited in the Late Show studio. This is likely to be elevated in Eurovision and could capture people’s imagination.

At least she’s not boring! It’s nice it’s different it’s unusual

I think Ireland is going to score with this song, good luck Ireland😂 it's already my nr 2 after Diva Teresa ja Maria😊

i love it be honest. So unique and theatre style. Im slavic, dont know much about celtic culture, but looks like witch/prediction and i love it. That dancers have celtic runes on their bodies. Dont know i love it :D

Whatever happens, it’s good to have variety in the content and this definitely brings something different that will get people talking. After all, Ireland has not succeeded in recent years with safe songs so why not this. 🇮🇪

As soon as I heard this I thought “I can’t wait for Georgina’s reaction!” 😂 It’s a huge grower. I’m kinda into it now.

Just becuase you dont understand something doesnt mean its not good. Best entry from Ireland in years... Lets go #BambieThug 🏳️‍⚧️

This is on my top 5 with the video clip, this live performance has to improve a lot (Even because on that stage she couldn't do much). But I think it will because It is a bigger stage in Sweden and the video clip shows that she have a lot of great ideas.

Love this 'song'!

I absolutely LOVE your first reaction to this. It's exactly as my first impression was.... But after listening to it more, I am LOVING it.... It's totally out there and is complete theatre... After learning the lyrics, which are absolutely brilliant I love it even more. Just a point where you thought there wasn't any Celtic vibes... All the backround script is actually ancient Irish script.... Also a nod to Hallow'een which of course Hallow'een originated in Ireland as Samhain.... I found a channel yesterday that I think explains so well about the meaning of this song... Have a look... I think Ireland deserves credit for breaking out of the box. Bambi Thug has I think, I love that they have got us talking... Love or hate the entry , it's not another Boyband! lol. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Amrt_4hs61A.html

Also aong is about feeling under appreciated in relationships and in society and her frustration and sadness about it. I always loved anything spooky, magical, different. As z 42 year old my fave film as a teenager was the craft, charmed, i love harry potter, i love ghost podcasts... Love the theatre of it. Givd it another go. Also, my favourite bands of all time are take that and steps🤣🤣 and i love this.

I love it it is different but yeah i love it

lo de irlanda es inenarrable, nadie estaba al volante cuando se decidió mandar a esta chica que, por otra parte, tiene otras cosas mucho mas interesantes, te recomiendo que entres en youtube para verlas

Incredible performer! This has potential!!❤

Thank goodness I grew up listening to 80-90s music.

As an Irish man, I’m totally biased and would love Ireland to win again. We have the all time record for the most wins at 7, but Sweden is at 6 and is on a very successful trend currently, while Ireland hasn’t won in about 25 yeass

The more I listen, the more I love it, I find myself singing it during my day🤣

People are hungry for fun and party this year, no balads, no screaming......!!!!!!🎉

I love that this song has gotten everyone talking. Lots of people acting confused about it now but by the time Eurovision comes around and people have listened to it enough I'm certain it'll be very popular, at least with the Eurovision regulars

I'm scared!

The music video dropped maybe have a gander at it

4:19 - Oh she is screaming live...

There is a ton of Irish Celtic representation in this, don't forget Ireland birthed Halloween, the first Irish alphabet is shown on the screen behind them, dark Irish dance dress, this is so awesome and beautiful, it's art and a performance, they didn't want one genre, no boxes, this is so brave and I LOVE it.

It's brilliant, it's mad it's just what is needed.

don't let us wait so much XD

I love Ireland for choosing Bambie 🎉

Bambi all the way 🍀💚🇮🇪

I agree with you on final part, I think she should put screaming in the backing track and sing "blue, blue, blue...", for the sake of her voice at least. I liked that witchy laughing tho.

It’s not my usual cup of English breakfast tea but, I think this is actually quite awesome after a couple of listens.

Last year, Ireland didn't take a risk. The last 20 years has seen very few risks from Ireland and so when people were chanting 'Bambie, Bambie!' at the end and the in studio panel actually got the memo with a Eurovision crowd at home, you can tell the right buttons were pressed for the first time in forever. This is what Ireland needs to take a risk and Bambie is the person to do it. They have great vocals, dancing, stage presence and lighting with great staging concepts that can obviously be expanded at Eurovision. My winner! I've never been prouder to be half Irish! It's time to send something not generic!

I love Bambie as an artist. They are definitely unique! However for me this song feels like the longest three minutes of my life 😂 the switching between the genres of metal and soft pop makes it feel like the song lacks cohesion. But I definitely want this in the final! And if they can throw some money at this performance it could be fire in Malmo 🔥 If you have a chance I recommend listening to their song titled Tsunami (11:11) because in my personal opinion it’s a great representation of what Bambi could bring! Loved the video ❤

So this song is about witchcraft which is actually engrained in Irish folklore and tradition. To me this is about a witch on her day of judgement or doomsday. ☺️

After tonight's live semi final ..... wow! Ireland 🇮🇪 for the win!

Georgina: "So, what genre is this, exactly?" Bambi: "Yes" Georgina: …

The Spotify version is better vocally than this live performance. But yeah…. It’s quite… unique??? It’s quite a 180 from our past performances!😅😂🤷🏻‍♂️❤️🇮🇪

It's a fascinating crazy song and performance. Better staging and camera work definitely required

All live, I was there, Its a Rock Scream! haha and yes the production has a lot of Celtic mythology, witchcraft and banshee elements!

Why is this so surprising? Kate bush meets bjork meets Amy wine house meets Janis joplin - I think it’s a really good entry ! Yes it sits outside the norm but so did Finland last year

Im liking it, bit of flavour for Eurovision 2024

I love it

I totally understand the confusion as theres a lot to take in in the first listen. It takes about 5 listens to really start to appreciate the unique nuances and qualities that separate this song from all the others this year. Personally i dont care for rock/metal music and neither do i care for the occult (to each their own), but theres so much here to borrow off and really build around when it comes to conceptual staging. Love the 'dream' and the 'nightmare' concept that she used for the stage in Ireland (not sure if that was intentional). And her vocals are very interesting. It started out as the biggest WTF when i heard it, and at the time i didnt like it. Since then, ive listened to all the other songs and in comparison this is so unique, and im really enjoying it now. Its slowly crept up my rankings to almost touching my top 10. I hope nothing more than for Ireland to qualify. Bambie Thug has really shaken things up in Ireland!

Interesting and orignal - more than sweden last year 😊

Every music has its own way of expressing various things. In addition, this song might have a "devil" like appearance but the lyrics don't have that message at all. This song prob talks about a break up and depression (correct me if I'm wrong) but not for bad spirits etc. I mean, other song were as good, but this was different. I think you'll be on the top 5!!!

Brilliant choice Ireland!

It's live screaming alright, you got to know what you're doing, and they do! :)

And people obviosly dont remember finlands winning entry years ago. That wasnt that much different. Even conchita got weird looks and He /she won it
