ESC Instant Request to The HARDKISS (Ukraine’s NF 2016)

[@valentinelevitsky5092]

Этот весь талант в исполнителях, потенциал раскрылся с 2014, когда из Украины уехали Басковы, Кабзоны и прочая ерунда, наконец-то наши артисты начали выходить на сцену и творить по душе. Hardkiss вообще на youtube начинали выкладывать видео, не нуждаясь в спонсорстве каком-то + по радио их можно было услышать.

Джамала набрала однакову кількість балів, що і хардкіс. Я впевнений, що навіть, якби на Євробачення виступила Хардкіс, то Україна всерівно перемогла б. ) Занадто сильні виконавці і пісні тоді були.

The *_The HardKiss_* is a great band. It was a *another* WONDERFUL masterpiece from the beautiful country Ukraine and awesome Ukrainian people. Love from Portugal, _(*I'm Portuguese)._ I love Ukraine and admire much the brave and talented Ukrainian people. I was in Ukraine and I loved the experience. I'll surely return.

[@matheusgomes9812]

I'm so proud that The Hartdkiss is Ukrainian band. They used to sing mainly in English, but lately they released quiet a few songs in Ukrainian and I cannot be happier 😍 p.s. yeah, it's a band. And yeah, they came in second as far as I can remember. p.p.s. as for the costume I actually prefer the one they used in semi final, if can check out that performance as well if you're interested.

[@darynahh]

The HardKiss is one of the best bands in Ukraine. They have a lot of awards and everyone adores them, especially after they started to sing in Ukrainian. They were the first according to the juries but second according to the televoters and that's why Jamala won. Frankly, I didn't expect Jamala to win because The HardKiss are EXTREMELY popular in Ukraine and nearby countries. They even have European tours. And that's sad that they don't want to compete in our selection anymore because they've outgrown it. And if I'm not mistaking, the lead singer Julia was pregnant during this performance. She and the guitar player of the band are now happy parents :) If you wanna hear more good Ukrainian music, please react to Kadnay - Beat of the Universe (they were 3rd in our selection this year).

[@NN-fp7ge]

It's fine! Julia seemed to be ill and her throat hurt a lot, but despite this she sang wonderfully❤

[@kateryna5919]

Thank you for this reaction!) The Hardkiss is very popular rock band in Ukraine. This band has a lot of cool song, which I recommend to listen to. :) I love this song very much.. the lyrics.. her voice... instrumental part.. staging.. It was connected into the one beautiful performance really good..) But Jamala is still my winner of ukrainian national selection that year).

[@V.Zakomirnyi]

Unfortunately, the most popular Ukrainian groups in the world are little popular or completely unknown in Ukraine. For example, Stoned Jesus, JINJER, KAZAKY, Dakhabrakha, Brunettes Shoot Blondes, Panivalkova, SPACE OF VARIATIONS, The Erised, Sinoptik.

[@marcexner1631]

It's a crime they they weren't selected. And the Hardkiss is one of the rare occasions where I checked out their other works and downloaded all of their albums. They're awesome and should definitely try again to compete.

[@mauki5862]

Hi) I would recommend to yYou do see this song in an acoustic version from a concert, they are actually a rock band but they did a live concert with all of their songs but with an orchestra, so it's even more wow) you do not have to react on it just for yourself but listen 🙏 it calls “helpless/Shchedryk acoustic live The Hardkiss” And btw this band was opening the Eurovision 2023, you can find it too as a guest, this frontwoman was the host of the Eurovision 2023))

[@nemezida3047]

но если вы слушаете о чем он говорит до и после просмотра выступления, то слышали как он сказал, что его просили сделать эту реакцию подписчики с разных стран мира, и просили очень многие. Вывод: по ходу он далеко не единственный иностранец, запавший на Хардов и украинскую музыку вообще ;)

Thank you, Jake for your reaction to The Hardkiss.

Thank you for this reaction!!! This song makes me cry, always... Greatest song of that Eurovision’s year!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@adelaidepereira6987]

Wow !! This song should have competed the following year. This year, in fact, was the year of Jamala. Her song is remarkable and deserved all the victories she has achieved. It was unfair for this song to compete in the year that Jamala competed. In another year, this song surely had gone to Eurovision, and would be well classified, with all certainty. Great Song! Amazing and beautifull voice!! ❤✌

[@KatsapyNeLiudy]

Exactly! That was our strongest year, not only Jamala, there were two more beautiful songs to choose from. But ad soon as I heard Jamala I knew they would win not only in Ukraine but the Eurovision as well. I actually bet for this with my friends.

[@ОлдСян-в6ъ]

Hi from Ukraine. It is my favorite band. Would be great to see still your response to other their songs ^^

[@svitlanademyanchuk590]

the hardkiss is a great band ,innovatieve, great music and band

[@OceanChild7]

Ha-ha, funny you mentioned the lifting up because there's a similar scene in one of their music videos (check out the Antarktida video if you'll be interested). Nothing to add to the comments below, the band is grand, they're pretty amazing, one of my favourite band across the board, so thank you so much for responding to this request and for such a favourable reaction!

[@teeneedzkey2890]

Woah! WOW!!!! It's so amazing!!!!

[@denys_bondar]

It was joint first but due to the rules (Jamala won the televote) it was not sent. Check them out, they are an amazing band!

[@mirroroffthewall5932]

I wish they had competed in the 2017 national final instead because both 1944 and Helpless deserved to be at Eurovision.

[@alexsandra5413]

They didn't participated in the selection in 2017, unfortunately((

[@lf6908]

Incredible!

[@nataliyakravchenko4994]

I remember watching this national selection on TV. The song and the whole scene was terrifying but with a catharsis in the end. The situation in the country was also heavy, not that bad as in 2014 but still not cheery. That is why people may have chosen other song. Still, I preferred them.

[@stanislavfedenko5812]

I requested you to watch Ukrainian national finals before, like you did with "Melodifestivalen". I don't know, maybe my requests didn't get much support. But obviously, our "Vidbirs" are better than the ESC semi-finals at least. This year we could send any of the six artists presented and each of them would be decent. Well, at least sometimes you check the separate songs.

[@innaz8507]

AAAA!!! at last! This song is so cool!! was so sorry, that this band didn't go to Eurovision. After that they won't participate in this competition

[@TheVadikUA]

I like this song very much

It is incredibly. But find out Ukraine from the other side, look at the performance of the finalist of the national selection for Eurovision 2018 - Kadnay. Pleeease.

[@cabemaru1]

YESSSS!!! HARDKISS is amazing! They have more than 5 years as a group and they have songs in english and in ukrainian (?) They take (hard) rock vibes and mix with dark pop and ballad too (like this case, "Helpless"). And they have another amazing songs. Look for them in YT, you will not waste your time ;).

[@PivdennaChaika]

The Hardkiss is the band, but yes, the lead singer is totally amazing, I love her. It is so nice and pleasant that there is so much attention to Ukranian talents from people from other countries. To my shame, I never watch national finals of other countries...

[@TurquoiseSnow]

I adore this band so much! Check out their song "Rain", it's my favorite. The lead singer's voice is so unique and beautiful.

[@joseuribe3333]

That Slavic wailing sound is so good, more countries should send song with it. Please react to Bulgaria 2013 or 2007 they are by the same artists and feature this type of vocal.

[@danilpanasenko]

listen to the rest of the band's songs.🔥✨👍

[@BeeRodz]

I actually prefer this over Jamala but it is what it is. The Hardkiss won the jury, Jamala won the televoting and that broke the tie.

[@Fedary]

I'm a fan of The Hardkiss,I suggest that you watch more clips from this band, for example STONES
