Judging Eurovision performances from 20 second snippets is a crime

Probably ESC posted those 48 second clips with a Peacock logo in it for the Reactors to see.

[@Tubered]

@@Charlizzie And removed from the official page of the competition on KZbin the full performances of the songs in the final

[@estherdebie6836]

Not showing The Netherlands as an honourable mention is a missed opportunity.

[@mikeporecki9946]

I guess they did it due to controversy. Explaining all that happened with the NL act, facts and rumors etc, which is obvious to Europeans would take a whole episode when done to someone with no or little knowledge of the whole thing 😅

[@tashi7186]

exactly like wtf

[@egoneiermann-tn7sc]

It's sad that a successful KZbin company doesn't have the time to play 3 minutes instead of 30 seconds. But maybe that's why it's so successful. Apparently that's enough for normal viewers. But at Eurovision, the entire 3 minutes are planned down to the smallest detail and that's what you should watch.

[@Charlizzie]

Probably since React is from the US. They only see the 40 second snips available on KZbin.

[@esc_gab]

Yeah especially Ireland, Italy, Switzerland and even Armenia would have been appreciated much more with the whole performance. And don‘t think it makes sense to them to try to guess the order of the top 10 since they probably don‘t even know how the scoring works with jurys and public

[@Alicechan3]

Instead of cutting down clips and then showing the reactors. Next year needs to be the opposite. Have them react to full performances then edit the reactors down

If you are doing reactions, you need to do the artists justice and watch the entire song, not just bits...

[@lolhiyoko7832]

Here's an idea, show these people the full performances and let their reactions decide which parts you put in the video. Rather than takling some of the worst parts of all these songs because you guys dont understand it. Maybe?

[@mogo58]

20:25 Don't forget, that 37 countries were participating, so Ireland placed really high 😄 it's also the best result Ireland has had since 1997

[@Tomas-ih1hp]

You guys should let them react to the whole act not just a 30 sec clip ,you cant really rate a whole 3 min song under a snippet which is just a few seconds

[@esc_gab]

yeah true. And maybe also the final recap of all the competing songs. I mean it‘s probably one of the most viewed yearly videos (at least in Europe) from this chanel so they definitely should give more effort and time into it

[@najrenchelf2751]

[@fredricktomasson]

@@onomatopoetisk it seems like they did it to save budget, couldn't afford it or being lazy. Longer the songs are, the more footage they have to work with when editing and the react people would have better understanding when casting their votes. Maybe I'm just overthinking.

Too long unless you're Alexandrumic. Engagement typically declines over the course of a long video so you have to keep people to tune in so keeping it short and sweet when showing reactions of half a dozen people in a single video is the ideal route to go.

Also Americans, this is a singing competition, not a most outragous performance one. Portugal and France's vocal performances were fantastic. But overall this year was a bit meh in my opinion.

[@m0t0b33]

Heeey... the host and the public sang very nicely. And the former winner guests too. Also don't care much for the newer tradition of bring Hollywood celebs just because they have origins in the host country, but are otherwise Americans. They look awkward and out of place.

[@Meye55]

This is not actually a singing competition, but a SONG competition. Different things 🤷🏼‍♀️ Obviously singing skills matter and a lot appreciate them but the whole set (singing, song and performance) matter and is meant to matter! The juries usually focus on the singing skills and how difficult the performance is yes, but we still have the public vote too.

@@Meye55 it sucks nonetheless LOL

How you can judge the songs and performances, if you neither take the time to see the complete act?

[@tomatoqueen22]

why would i care about a reaction from someone who just saw an edit of a performance?

[@rossanasperanza6925]

why do you show only a few seconds? you can show the whole performance to them and then keep the best parts in the edit. this way they can rank the songs by actually knowing them

[@jippa]

I mean you know the video is edited, right?

[@yascaoimhin]

Yeah. Such a weird portion to choose for Ireland.

[@alyssa92400]

and also Marína Sátti (Greece) this was my favourite

[@propdynamic4069]

Joost Klein would have been far up the top 10 though if the EBU would have gotten their head out of their arses.

[@keitaro-kun2373]

They only show the top 10 in every eurovision video

[@renemeyer256]

The Netherlands' Europapa deserves its own reaction video.

[@kevindowling788]

You should have taken longer clips as those parts don't reflect the overall vibe of each song especially for Ireland jesus. Americans stay away from Eurovision for the sake of the beauty of the contest

[@connection7405]

you could've chosen more epic moments from almost all of these performances (except France, you nailed that one)

[@SIAN_1]

Can you show EVERYBODY the full performances next time, please?

Americans don't have the attention span.

[@stevekvr]

Nah MA-RI-NA and Joost are missing !!!!Wrong top 10🇬🇷🇳🇱

[@MackInTosher]

This wasn't really great, ended up skipping through most of the video because the reactors were just giving "eh" energy about this whole thing. Not to mention the fact they barely had content to react to as the songs don't really do great when you cherry pick edit them. If you were going to cut performances down so much I'd say you'd have been better off doing all of the entries in the final.

[@julio20maxxx]

It's gen Z and Alfa, what did you expect!?🙄🤷🏻‍♂️

16:57 “that was clearly a vocal performance….amazing you can sing😒” ummm it’s a song competition what did you expect them to do?😭

[@elliotarundella7581]

lmao ikr

[@avsambart]

Not showing the complete performances is such a let down.

[@AammaK]

They might have seen them whole during the making of the video. Obviously they are cutting it down for the final video. Let’s be honest, people watching this have probably seen the whole entries already and are most interested in their reactions.

[@avsambart]

@@AammaK one of them literally says "I wanna go watch the whole thing now" so no, they didn't see the whole performance for this vid.

@@antonievanbruchem4540 a proper reaction perhaps, not 20s of each performance where they talk throughout it

[@annethen7984]

Somehow it's refreshing to see a video of ESC where the people are not fully involved/know of all the politics that were a big part of it this year. Don't get me wrong. I have a lot of popinons about it, but this is makes it some how more innocent.

[@Hrkortegaard]

Can’t believe that they cut out Bambie screaming her lungs out, or the high belts from either iolanda or Ladaniva. Sorry, this edition lacked some momentum. 💔

[@signebrummerstedt9205]

Just the fact that they didn’t watch the entirety of the performances tbh… Like just look at Switzerland - sure it was the climax of the song they saw, but it hits kinda different after you’ve watched/listened to Nemo rap just before then sung opera.

[@user-nl7jq2ci5v]

Telling the reactors that Switzerland is non-binary and not that Ireland was too is not a slay

Nemo = man. Bambie Thug = woman.

I dont think they told the reviewers about the pronouns at all, they just assumed based on Nemo's appearance. Which is fair enough, Imo it's the staff/hosts that are slacking by not informing the (re)viewers.
