First Time Reaction Gjon's Tears Tout l'Univers (WOW!!!) | Dereck Reacts

[@litogor]

Eurovison 2021 was one of the best levels of all time (especially the first 3: Italy, France and Switzerland) Italy won but if France or Switzerland had won it wouldn't have shocked anyone because the 3 are great. Also a symbolic competition because the non-English speaking countries who sang in English with mundane and unnecessary songs were all punished! This competition returns to what it would never have ceased to be -> Representative of the culture and diversity of countries ...

[@arkasonus7678]

Totally agree 👍🏻

[@imhotep9006]

True

[@philippeaffouard6414]

I totally agree too

[@KittenCritters]

Yes we are finally back to only latin countries winning because they have languages that sound good to sing in

[@BenCreaven]

@@KittenCritters no lol. Ukraine sang in their own language and came 2nd with the televote, only coming 5th because the juries don’t like different music. the latin countries just sent great songs this year.

[@lucvincent2020]

I'm French ... this song move me a lot , a pure masterpiece ... he's my winner , so powerful , a pure revelation 🙏🙏🙏

[@Soundoverload]

I was blown away when I saw this…incredible voice and just incredible beautiful song

[@Soundoverload]

This version is pretty damn great aswell kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYaZfpepoJylgbs

[@lostargent0123]

I'm French too and this voice affect me a lot. The song is very emotional. For me, he wins Eurovision 2021

[@yourgolfdoc]

im swiss and dont understand anything😂😂😂

[@sadyakubovich]

That high note sounded so resonant and ethereal towards the end, I really got goosebumps. I wonder if it was a vocal technique or a produced sound effect

[@mandyvandenbogaard4243]

In Eurovision the voices are 100% live!

[@radharose99]

Echo, I feel

[@peachparee7647]

There's a large use of echo effects on his voice bc it goes really well with his voice and he knows it! Makes his voice sound even more ethereal~

[@sannev8407]

Defenitely live, the vocals are always live

[@kasia_2400]

At least a Swiss artist I'm so proud 🇨🇭

[@danielakeller7532]

Yes that‘s true, we don‘t have a lot of great musicians 🇨🇭.

He is Shqiptar (Albanian 🇦🇱)though. 😂

[@Kyubone]

@@labinotsherifi8602 Don't you think he might consider himself Swiss too? He's born and raised in Switzerland. I think he's able to embrace his Albanian roots while also calling himself Swiss.

[@jonvila5885]

@4:32 Dereck's facial expressions go from: singing along to shocked to "this is absolutely ridiculous"

[@Lunaticaceleste]

Hi! He got me fascinated since the first time I heard this song. Oh my God... And with the official video or this performance it's even more perfect. It always gives me goosebumps, no matter how many times I hear it or watch his performance. He's something else. Many times you find singers who are perfect technically but they don't transmit the emotion, so it's useless. He's the opposite to those. Just takes me to another dimension, just with his voice. And, as you have seen, the lyrics are also very deep. I adore him. I became a fan of his since the minute one.

[@onewxrldmusic7303]

You should also react to "Répondez-moi", his 2020 song for the cancelled Eurovision Contest

[@wersd7396]

He sang Daniel Balavoine's song in The Voice France too 😉🤩

[@tanjajko7220]

This one was my winner this year! 🥰

[@pipounawinnieangeluna]

Thank you soooooo much I was dying to see you react to Gjon's Tears !!!! The official video is just insane, take a look 😉

[@jessicachamand8490]

I am French and still this song is my winner. Interpretation is great, voice is outstanding and lyrics are far more interesting than...voilà

[@susanarodrigues4864]

I am portuguese and this was my winner too... it´s magnificent... this song give me chills everytime i heard

[@realglutenfree]

I think this song would have won in a previous year for sure. But 2021 was the boss battle of Eurovision, almost all songs where pretty good or even great. I saved multiple songs of that year in my playlists and I usually only like one or two songs out of every competition.

[@thesneakyhider6978]

Got to see this live at the second semi final and it was amazing. We could literally feel the music.

[@druartchristelle2879]

Thank you so much Dereck to take your time to discover more of Gjon, he is really fantastic and deserve à beautiful international career. You can also see his song Babi and Répondez-moi.

[@birkinater1139]

❤🤩😍 my winner that year by far and my favourite eurovision performance 🖤🤍

[@yvkon]

Liked the vid, before I even started it. Know this is going to be another beauty!! And yes, the video is also worth a watch, definitely. And if you still want more: he also has an entry in Eurovision 2020, the one that never was...., also worth a listen to. Répondez-moi.

[@irinapilipchuk7479]

Such a talented singer and such a beautiful song!

[@Sikas81]

Switzerland's song was the best!!!

[@upfrontbear74]

Yesssssss so pleased you are reacting to this, you need to react to his song that he would have preformed with last year Repondez Moi, live version.

[@wersd7396]

Thanks Dereck ! These guy is amazing... he made Rhe Voice in France (team Mika). Great moments ! See them 💖🙏💐

[@meganthomas8699]

I loved your comprehensive feedback on his performance, especially making sure to take the meaning of the words into account. Your organization was en pointe.

[@guadalupereyeslibreros521]

[@bereniceb4692]

Now I wait your reaction about Voila by Barbara Pravi at the final of the Eurovision 2021

[@Ilsecool90]

First time here. Seriously, hearing all the things like subscribing and stuff like that sounds just like a flight attendance. It's so fast, I can't even make words of it.

[@olivierolivier6080]

Swiss was my best choice at 2021 eurovision

[@UTUB2kholle]

Never heard of him but I like this! Will have to dig more by myself.

[@roose85723]

He's just getting started but the other 2-3 songs he has are fantastic. Highly recommend Repondez-moi and Babi.

[@melancholytears]

@@roose85723 He has also some unreleased songs that he and his band have performed in concerts, for example this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qarUY6d_r7Ksh8k

[@danielguerinot6307]

Pour moi, c"était la meilleure chanson de l'eurovision 2021, et 2 ans après je l"écoute encore

[@markuss.8078]

check out the song with the official video. The implementation is fantastic and supports the drama. absolutely worth seeing and for me, the music video of the year

[@lucileleresche1678]

I am Swiss and this music really touches le a lot. You could maybe react to these other music that I love too.

[@MrFelis1]

Thanks to this reaction. The official videoclip to this song is intense and deep.

[@ohrusty]

I would love for you to react to Australia's contribution this year -- Not the Same by Sheldon Riley. It would be fun to see it, considering how A is totally NOT Europe, haha. It was actually ny favourite contribution this year, and I'm a huge ESC nerd. The whole "not the same" lyrics didn't go over that well over here in Europe, considering the war in Ukraine, aaaand a song that's about being on the autism spectrum and gay with those kind of lyrics wasn't very well suited... Anyhow! You got a new subscriber! I've seen 4 videos by you now, and I like what you do. Your reactions are on point.

[@head_inthestars]

I've seen a couple of videos of you but it's the first time that I see you not moving that much, it makes me feel weird 😅 but yeah, he has that thing in his voice that just makes me quiet. I'm so happy he finished so high, he deserves it! ❤

[@OphelieH27]

French here, HE SHOULD'VE WON EUROVISION OMFG he's insanely talented, like, he's an alien at this point, I really hope he will have an even broader recognition.

[@vern3899]

His song, Silhouette live from the Voice is amazing! I recommend

[@jamjam1312]

gjon's tears was a contestant in The Voice France. I hope you can see his videos, he was really unique, crazy and he has such a powerful voice! Amazing! Not sure you can see the videos from US though.. If you can, take a look at another contestant called "anne sila", she's amazing!

[@giuseppefalcone1221]

Le français est une langue fantastique, très armonique et douce. Les chanson en français étaient les meilleures!

[@sannev8407]

It was defenitely the best of the night both in song and voice

Grande voix pour une grande chanson ! J'aurais mis twelve points!!

[@tamaravanhees1749]

Generally the top 5 were very good and it could've gone any way. I honestly didnt care who won as I loved all of the top 6 were really good. But it really was between Italy, France & Switzerland.

[@monsjodi2801]

he's incredibly talented

Un millón de aplausos para eeeeel

[@arwenndame5160]

Il a participé à l'émission concours The Voice France 2019, et il est revenu y participer une 2eme fois dans l'édition spéciale All Star, en 2021, mais le All Star à été gagné pas Anne Sila. Parmi les concurrents de The Voice France, plusieurs font actuellement carrière comme Amir, Louane, Kenji Girac, Slimane, Claudio Capéo, le duo Fréro Delavega, Luc Arbogast (une sorte de troubadour médiéval que je conseille vraiment d'écouter). A écouter, aussi, en attendant que leurs carrières décollent: MB14, Louis Delort et Will Barber (sa 1ere audition sur "Another Brick In The Wall" était tellement top qu'elle est allée jusqu'aux oreilles du groupe Pink Floyd). He took part in The Voice France 2019 competition program, and he returned to participate a second time in the special All Star edition, in 2021, but the All Star was won by Anne Sila. Among the competitors of The Voice France, several are currently making careers such as Amir, Louane, Kenji Girac, Slimane, Claudio Capéo, the duo Fréro Delavega, Luc Arbogast (a kind of medieval troubadour that I really recommend listening to). To listen, too, while waiting for their careers to take off: MB14, Louis Delort and Will Barber (his first audition on "Another Brick In The Wall" was so top that it went to the ears of the group Pink Floyd).

[@angelaburrow8114]

Gjon's Tears was also the representative for Switzerland in 2020, the year the contest was cancelled because of Covid. His song was Répondez-moi. Although I loved Tout l'universe, Répondez-moi is even better, imo.

[@Miyakuli]

Personally, he reminds me more of Gregory Lemarchal with his voice~ I recommend A corps perdu or Ecris l'histoire, that are pretty good songs of him

[@ling7980]

Please listen to his song RÉPONDEZ MOI... incredible voice again !!!!!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤

[@thankyouforthemusic4881]

This is a fantastic song. I´ll just leave my comment here and only with good intentions. Just watched a few episodes of a series on Netflix called "This is pop" Who invented autotune and why? When did the public first notice that is was used? Just seen three episodes so far. So interesting.

[@patlydeval2453]

This guy is, vocally, closer to Calogero than to Daniel Balavoine.

[@fabiennedibona3149]

This is the winner of jurors vote in 2021, immediately befoe the public votes that were less favourable unfortunately to sink to 3rd overall after Italy and France.

Hola, Derek. Te he mandado un mensaje con un enlace a un vídeo musical y Yt me lo ha borrado, pero no importa, te explico: si te parece bien, me gustaría que reaccionaras al vídeo musical de la Reina del Pay Pay. Ella fue una transexual que, en los años de posguerra en España, actuó en un cabaret, el Pay Pay, a pesar de que lo tuvo todo en contra. Sabes que l@s trans no tienen la misma visibilidad que otros miembros de la comunidad LGBTI, por eso creo que merece la pena hacer una reacción sobre esto, además el vídeo es precioso porque está grabado en el Pay Pay y en el camerino que tuvo, y la cantante, Pasión Vega, es muy, muy buena. Estoy segura de que te gustará.
