Slimane 🇫🇷 Mon Amour REACTION to 1st live performance

[@jeanmariesanchez4816]

Arc de Triomphe, Champs Elysées, Paris. Another symbol of "the city of lights". Amazing performance!

[@georgikanevESC]

So then I said it right haha :) at least the one name I got right. I mean I have been there twice , so I shouldn’t make a mistake haha. PS: I loved Paris

[@balintkiss3841]

I don't understand why they say this is not going to do well at ESC. Like this is amazing. My favourite so far. Also I feel that the staging will be just as great as Barbara's so yeah I hope this goes far in the contest. :)

[@georgikanevESC]

I have also read a lot of those comments on Twitter and I was thinking why… because this is such a unique ballad, such a heart story through the lyrics and Slimane is elevating it to the fullest… Well we will find out in 5 months 🥳💗

[@balintkiss3841]

@@georgikanevESC yeah we’ll see but I have very good feelings about this. I loved Barbara as well, actually recently yers France is one of my favourite big 5 country a big competition Italy. And I would not be surprised if Franc would win soon as well. Anyway hope for the best he is such a great artist and I’m here for this new season very excited to have more and more songs out!!!😊

[@georgikanevESC]

@@balintkiss3841 yesss me too. It’s literally starting from now, from January songs will be coming out one after the other. Barbara I loved from first hearing, honestly ❤️

[@vincentf6527]

Wow Georgi, you make me very very happy reacting to this video… I was hoping you would. I’m still obsessed with this song, I think he’s so amazing. The voice, the style… a triumph! (Pun intended). I agree with you, I hope he keeps it simple for ESC. Loving the new special effects and flashy background in your videos. 🎉 happy 2024 !

[@georgikanevESC]

Haha it’s all Christmas presents from family and friends :) so I got the opportunity to use them in this video of a song that I know and I like. And now with the live performance omg right ? This man can SING !!! happy new year 🎆 to you too :)

Happy 2024 ❤️❤️ So you know baby lasagna ? I mean you listen to his other songs etc before he is announced to esc ?

[@JNL76]

@@georgikanevESC You mean if I watch the national finals? Yeeeaaaahhh baby, of course 🤩! I try to follow all national finals this year. And form Dora, I really like the tecnobeat and the "rock" side of Rim Tim Tagi Dim. When I am half way, it starts to be a little repetitive but than suddenly this super tecno part starts and that makes it good again just on time. Barbara Munjas sounds like Gwen Stefani and I like that, but I don't like the song. I like Alan Duras, Lu Dedic and Marcela also. You? Or did you mean if I knew Baby Lasagna before Dora? No, I didn't, did you? I haven't had the time to listen to more of him either, do you recommend it to me?

[@georgikanevESC]

@@JNL76 I didn’t know him either, but I wanna listen to more of his songs I have the feeling I will like it😌 About the techno beat etc I fully agree . The moment the song starts getting a bit boring then has this awesome beat without lyrics and it’s soooo catchy.

[@JNL76]

@@georgikanevESC Same here, this week I am quite busy but this weekend I will investigate his music. And I am also curious how people will react to it. When you do, give me recommendations please.

[@georgikanevESC]

@@JNL76 I think a looooot of people ( Eurovision fans ) loooove his song , I mean ( baby lasagna ) song. Like he literally could win the whole thing because everybody has his as his number one

[@rhysjones7002]

Love the new light up sign! Slimane’s voice is just unreal, so good

[@georgikanevESC]

Yes Rhys, that’s very very true and it’s a great concept so they can keep it for Eurovision maybe

[@georgikanevESC]

Yes reading the comments under my video the first 24h I read that it was almost 1 mil !!! 😱😱

[@Mucrush]

I hope they'll use some of the same effects that showed up in the background for the stage LEDs. Those swirling lights that shows up at 5:00 would look amazing!

[@georgikanevESC]

Yesss exactly ! I love those white lights behind him , going slowing up and down and then when it’s higher peached his voice it’s giving it all through the lights 🤓

[@escdavs3990]

5:06 nearly a million of french people witnessed his performance 🙈

[@georgikanevESC]

Are you for real ?? That’s A LOT of people !!!

[@escdavs3990]

@@georgikanevESC definitely 🙈 it's huge! I don't know if you noticed when the camera switched sections and moved towards the crowd.

[@georgikanevESC]

@@escdavs3990 yes in the reaction video that’s exactly the moment that I was thinking ( is that the crowd ?? 😱 ) cause it looked for a moment like there’s A LOT of people

[@escdavs3990]

@@georgikanevESC That's a relief, bcs not only does he sing majestically, but he does it in front of a large audience 🙈

[@vicsymons1570]

Loreen said to Slimane to not keep it simple but to be very creative....so what to do?

[@georgikanevESC]

Well it depends, Loreen did something that she feels comfortable with. So I guess Slimane has to do something that he is comfortable with. If he wants to have a lot then yes if he wants to have just amazing lighting around him then yes. We are just assuming , he is the one who decides 💪🏻🤓

[@vicsymons1570]

@@georgikanevESC sure he is the one who knows better than anybody else, it's just that Loreen said that if he wants to win Eurovision, he has the song but he has just to be very creative for his staging and performance, as she won it twice I think she knows what to do to please the esc audience. I would personally keep it simple until the last part of the song which is a bit explosive, so I need to feel this explosion too on the esc stage. But it's only me. We'll see what Slimane will do. He is already creative with his outfits and his hair though. He changes everytime, and seeing his creativity behind his concerts, I'm confident that he won't disappoint at all.

[@georgikanevESC]

@@vicsymons1570 yes the last 30 seconds are the part when he gives so much power, I agree. About Loreen I agree, I remember when she was talking in an interview and she said ( I like to be part of when the staging looks like ) not many artists are given this power, many that are new artists have their stage director and he decides ..

[@vicsymons1570]

@@georgikanevESC true! I think it's an advantage to be already a big established artist in that case, cause being successful you know how to be successful rightfully and how to please more than any stage directors or anybody else, you can still listen the advices, but that's all. Look at Marina she is another great example, nobody will choose her song and everything except her as she knows exactly what she wants, and she knows what to do as well.

[@georgikanevESC]

@@vicsymons1570 yesss you are referring to Marina Satti right ? You are so right ! The thing is that she is an independent artist and I love that Panik Records are not behind her this year. Cause usually Panik decides everything , the song , the video clip etc. Marina has her own style and will choose everything in a way that SHE feels good with. She is unique. So I can’t wait to see what comes out of it :)

[@deniszakine8169]

En tant que français je ne peux pas voter pour Slimane ! Je voterai pour la chanson 🇮🇱 car j'en ai ras le bol des polémiques politiques commandités par certains pays ! Je voterai pour la chanson d'Israël.
