American Reacts to Loreen "Tattoo" 🇸🇪 Official Music Video | Sweden EuroVision 2023!

[@tallslimguy]

Loreen is nearly 40 years old and won the Contest 11 years ago, She is a true and wonderful performer. And yes! She won this 2023 contest making history for being only the 2nd person to enter and win twice ( Ireland won twice with Johnny Logan)

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

She did!! Good for her for coming back and doing it again.

[@mvdh877]

actually johnny logan won 3 times 2 times as a singer and 1 time as a song writer

[@stockholmbubbles]

Loreen won the Eurovision with the FANTASTIC song Euphoria in 2012, check it out! I hope she can win the Eurovision again ❤

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

Yes she did. I did mention that in my wrap up and glad she is back!!

[@mellanapa]

What they said! 👆🖤

[@sirjohnmara]

Yes it was LIVE.

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

Yup. I understand that it was performed the day before the submissions has to be sent so they submitted that and just also made it the official music video!

[@Asa...S]

Loreen has describe it as "Euphoria was the moonlight, Tattoo is the sunrise" or that the songs are like yin and yang. My own interpretation of it is also that "Euphoria" is Sweden, where she is born and raised, that performance it rather was dark, with had snow, while "Tattoo" has sand and this warm desert light, to remind us about Morocco where her parents are from, but both have this ethereal, mystical feel and filled with so much love and artistry. The signs above her looks like Moroccan tradional tattoos, from the ethnical group her family is from, but some has also said they've seen Nordic runes, so perhaps there is a mix. It's like two sides of her in these two songs. The way she lifts "the sky" reminds me of Atlas, from the Greek mythology, and that has also a connection to her roots, since the place where he was thought to stand, the Atlas mountains is from the area here her family is from. The stones on her nails is also from this place. In 2023 Eurovision there has been a massive rule change, perhaps even a game changer? People from other countries get to vote too! So if you're a night owl, perhaps you'll watch it live, and vote for Loreen, if she happens to be your favorite? I think you will be able to watch it on Peacock in the US (or use some VPN to watch one of the European channels, like BBC) and there will be some kind of secure online platform where non-Europeans can vote... But I don't have more info on that just yet. Thanks for a great reaction (and sorry about the essay, sometimes I get a bit carried away)!

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

Thanks so much for the interpretation. Yes, worldwide voting is open through the site or app. It's all listed out on their website and it will also be shown, as you said, on Peacock. I'll be watching and voting! Loreen is gonna do great!

[@kayleighmoran]

Åsa, if you don't already, you should take a major in literature. Sometimes a rose is just a rose, is a rose, you know.

[@Asa...S]

@@kayleighmoran Sure, but sometimes it's so symbolic. I think it's just one of the things Loreen does so well, she sparks and inspire other people's creativity, not just her own. The song connects with you, and for some it makes them sing, dance, or paint, but she inspires me to write!

[@kayleighmoran]

Ok, Åsa. You seem mighty thrilled, and go ahead and write then. But slow down a wee. I tell you, Loreens song is meh compared to others. The lyrics is really very blah. I think that you are young and need to broden your knowledge on music and literature.

[@2ahalvfinne429]

Thx for a nice reaction, we swedes are so proud over Loreen , and you are right, we do pronounce her name a little different here localy :)

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

You should be. Wonder if she will win it again?!

[@ZakhadWOW]

Low-RAY-uhn... LOL All those names in Sweden that end in "en" (I cant make the accent mark) have that same thing.. Sanden, Lindgren, etc

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

@@ZakhadWOW Yeah I get myself in trouble on all the videos I watch because most of them are foreign to me! Thanks for the clarification.

[@ringmoen1]

Great reaction. 👍Amazing voice and artist❤

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

Thank you! I agree, she is incredible.

[@Detefanintesant]

I didn’t wanna say anything in my comment on your last video but I think Sweden is pretty proud of this year’s song 😄 Loreen is a GREAT performer. It will be interesting to see how it stands against the rest of the songs. Thanks again for a great reaction video. ☺️🇸🇪

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

Yeah and being this is her second go around, she knows the venue. It is no joke how good of a performer she is because, they used her live performance as the official music video! AMAZING.

[@zpitzer]

@@DaneBramageROCKS yea you should react to her Euphoria if you havn't

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

@@zpitzer I haven't. After the event I may go through and react to previous songs from the countries finalists! Kind of like a throwback.

[@lovlyman8707]

It is the sound of movement, presence and feeling

[@sarahlangley9039]

Do yourself a favor and watch the live version of Loreen's My Heart Is Refusing Me. Talk about powerful voice. That song live will blow your mind.

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

Oh yeah, ok I will. Thank you.

[@miagertsson7172]

WE WON!!! 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

Indeed!! Congrats to Loreen and Sweden AGAIN!!! 2-time win for her!

[@gustavobarros2744]

Loreen é simplesmente PER-FEI-TA! Sua voz toca profundamente na alma. Saudações do Brasil 😍🇧🇷❤️

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

Ela é incrível. Ela se saiu tão bem todas as vezes.

[@mar___111]

I'm excited for her performance!

תודה. היא נפלאה וכל הכבוד על הזכייה!

[@joannavargas368]

I loved this song! Eurovision has a couple of very good voices. Maybe you can Check Sam Ryder’s Eurovision performance too and also Måneskin’s 👌🏼

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

I have seen Sam Ryders and also Måneskin’s. I actually just posted Måneskin’s official MV.

[@Tove_Ishockey]

it's live for around 30000 people

[@yelenamaystrovaya1100]

I love loreen…

[@user7434]

i like the winner performance

[@zpitzer]

The stage in Liverpool can't handle that big screen above her, it weighs about 2 tons, so it will be smaller.

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

oh wow. Well, hopefully it will be ok, she was pretty stationary in one spot so Im sure she will be fine.

[@Floffrickard]

She did go out throug different medias they have some exciting plans for the show in Liverpool. With Loreen you can always expect a great performance :)

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

@@Floffrickard Good, I'm counting on that!

[@Floffrickard]

@@DaneBramageROCKS if you watch her first entrance this year the stage was jumped by activists and she kept singing, and afterwards she went up again and did it flawless

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

@@Floffrickard No kidding?! What a sport.

[@evwajarl817]

The berbers lived 2-4000 meters up in the Atlas mountains. After thousands of years their bodies had adjusted to live in this thin air and they therefore can dance, sing and breathe at the same time. their bodies had become adjusted to thin air. Loreen therefore has this poweful and different voice.

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

That is fascinating! She is truly gifted!

[@rickyashton296]

She has a new song out "Is it Love".... please reactttttt

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

I'll check it out, Thanks!

[@sotiris6116]

we are so used to listening to shit everyday, that we are impressed and shocked when we listen to real talent, which should be the standard to make it to the music bussiness.

[@sutej72]

Sweden never makes a music video for Eurovision its always the live preformance

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

AWESOME. As it should be

[@leffeboy1000]

Not a video......

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

Right, it was shot live at her final performance and they just made it the official music video! IT was AWESOME.

[@lindatouqir6405]

It's live. She is an amazing live performer. Almost better live than recorded. She is amazing

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

She truly is. I was watching her rehearsal and she was wonderful

[@hlynurthor]

Sweden always has the final of Melodifestivalen (the show where they choose the song to send) the day before the submission deadline for Eurovision, so no time to make a music video. Instead they just send the recording from the live broadcast of Melodifestivalen.

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

OPh I see, but still! It really was that good. Typically though, the Artist makes a video and releases it a few week down the road. But, why ruin a good thing!

[@Dds123-l3z]

Thank you for a nice reaction of our belting Queen Loreen! I reacted almost the same way as you first time I saw the performance and my boyfriend got teary eyed with the explosion in the end when he saw it 😂❤🇸🇪

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

Been watching the rehearsals as well, smaller props she has to use but she still looks and sounds awesome! She will crush it.

[@lars6849]

loreen is 39 years old and still going strong

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

Yeah she is!

[@woolyshambler7571]

Yes. it's live. Why? Because Loreen can't do it otherwise.

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

Why ruin a good thing!!

[@fandiminhund]

She is an AMAZING artist. Her voice is wonderful and touches your soul. Listen to her album Heal. It is old but oh my❤️

[@KasperochSiri]

Sweden usually have a live performance as the official music video for eurovision and sometimes there is a real music video made like for Euphoria (also with Loreen) later on.

[@DaneBramageROCKS]

That's awesome

[@popocatepetl7706]

So it's live too? 😂😂😂😂 Of course it's live 😅😂❤

[@seriouspleasures]

Proper reaction, I'd say!
