@@humantaste5776 I have personally witnessed *many* examples of American idiocy. It's not uncommon. "I thought Europe was a country" "Wait, so what's the difference between the UK and Great Britain?" "Ireland is that country with the leprechauns, right?" Apparently the Nile "nearly" runs through France too 🤔. It's pretty hard not to form a negative opinion when a large portion of Americans I have encountered are uneducated in the general knowledge of Europe. You don't get to be butthurt because we think your country's general stupidity is humerous.

[@djhvallejo]

I'm an American and I love EuroVision. I've been watching it for years. It expands your music horizons. Eurovision is a contest between all the European Countries that send one entry after they do their own contest for best song and they all vote on best song. This is how ABBA became so famous. The were Eurovision winners.

[@Morrighanangel84]

Although should add some countries don't qualify every year. There are some core countries who do it every year like UK, Germany etc because money, but UK usually sends rubbish acts because apparently we don't care enough to send the best singers

[@Sanchordia]

The Eurovision Song Contest is not remotely comparable to The Voice or American Idol. It is not a vocal talent show, it is a song contest that had been running annually since 1956. Previous winners include Celine Dion and Abba. Each country sends an original song each year, and the winner is the decided by 50/50 split expert jury and public vote.

[@ilikefood8075]

Sanchordia thank you I hate trying to explain this

[@leylakeyne2607]

True, and the vote isn't really about their voice/stage presence. It's basically which country has more allies, politically or just neighbouring countries. As each country can't vote for themselves.

[@Sanchordia]

Leyla, I don't think that is really true either. If it were just which country had the most friends, then the same country would win every year. Israel for example has no neighbours in the contest, are politically isolated, and yet were victorious this year. Austria won the whole contest in 2014, yet in 2015 received no points at all. The most popular act wins, that is all there really is to it.

[@phillykat36]

Thank you. I never knew what Eurovision was about before.

[@leea8706]

Leyla I love watching the Eurovision Song Contest just to guess the amount of points awarded to one country by another country. My mum and I got really really good at it because like you said, it’s a bit of a popularity contest and a lot of the countries will give 12, 10 and 8 points to the same country every year. Also, we’re in the UK so we get the points in English and in French (I guess England and France shares the same presenters and broadcast or whatever) so when we guessed the number of points we’d say it in English and then repeat it in French like they do on the TV.

[@larrymeetsphan1655]

Americans get so confused whenever Eurovision is mentioned

[@yousure8692]

larrymeetsphan Because we have no idea what it is 😂😂 We are never introduced to it, unless something like this comes along and sparks an interest. Most people claim it’s ignorance, but in reality, it’s just literally that we have never seen it in our entire lives, and has nothing to deal with us. Despite it being “one of the most popular shows on another continent,” as one of these angry individuals said.

[@karla8561]

You Sure? Nah,yall just don’t bother to do some research ot get to know anything new or anything outside your country. Of course,not everyone but still level of ignorance in America in general is huge when it comes to like every other continent. And its not the problem that he doesnt know or understand the point of it or its value but the fact that he and many more don’t even bother doing some research.

[@staciii]

@@karla8561 how can you do research on something if you don't know it exist? There are so many countries and cultures in the world. The average person doesn't sit around on the internet researching countries like that 😂 do you?

[@yousure8692]

Staci-Ann Lawson EXAAAACTLY!

[@yousure8692]

karla I stand by Staci in her statement. ALSO, as I said. If you aren’t directly introduced to something, then how are you going to know it exists? Sure, I’ll agree America has a sort of ignorance about it, but you can’t apply that here. It simply doesn’t work like that, boo. Like Staci said, there are so many cultures across the world. I don’t know anyone (unless it is their profession, or are studying to actually GO there one day) who does this. As we have our own country to worry about, and the MANY cultures in it, and introduced to it. America is a tapestry of cultures, so trust me when I say we have our fair share of that as well. Sorry, but you can’t try to throw America under the bus for this one this time. You tried, though, hun.

Eurovision started as a way to unite Europe after world war 2 so it holds a bit more significance than just a singing competition.

Also countries often vote for their "country friends" (like Eastern Europe always vote for each other), geopolitics at its finest

[@helenacohen2185]

The song is about the problem of heavy religion as in ultra orthodox Jewish or Muslim teaching Israeli boys that women are made for their pleasure. The chicken noises are a remix of the word stupid in Arabic and the word Boobah means doll which is how boys were and still are treating girls in Israel

In Eurovision 2016 the hosts Petra Mede and Måns Zelmerlöw (who won the competition the previous year) did an interval act during one of the semifinals. It's called "Story of ESC (That's Eurovision)". It's a song which basically explains how the contest started and how it works. During the grand final they did another interval act called "Love Love, Peace Peace" and it's a MASTERPIECE. Basically it's a parody of the festival. They did a synthesis of elements that many ESC songs have in common. They also mentioned and did a recreation of iconic entries from (mostly) the last decade. And some former winners appear too, like Alexander Rybak or Lordi. So if you wanna know more about Eurovision you should check those performances. Especially Love Love Peace Peace. It's so good you don't even need to understand the references to enjoy it.

First of all, don't be afraid to listen to a European Song Competition. This was the reality show before reality shows were a thing. Everything already said here all true. Israel is a country in the middle East that has been permitted to join this European competition probably for political reasons of being a secluded country living amongst countries who doubt its legitimacy. The reason this son won despite all these comments is first because it's super catchy and super weird, so it stuck out of the 36 other songs, some of which were incredible. It is also important to note, that while each country voted with its points the song didn't lead, but once the popular vote came in, it did. This win is important because it showed that people liked the message of being the underdog. Netta spoke about being the girl that was called ugly that doesn't deserve to be a winner and many many people identified with that idea, strengthening her and telling her she can be their hero and she can be beautiful despite what society says about beauty. Lastly, she's got MAD pipes! She can sing the shit out of the dictionary, she's amazing!!! She deserves this win and she will have a huge career because her beat boxing is also incredible and her entire package is unique and excellent.

So basically everyone wants their country to win Eurovision. Also, we have no idea how Australia got into Eurovision last year, we, europeans, are as confused as everyone else. But that’s not the point. People having the contest all over the country searching for the best contestant for like a month, can be a professional singer or just a amazing unknown singer whatever. Then, usually in may, the semifinals and finals are happening. It’s kinda like the olympics but for singers and just for Europe (except for Australia but I don’t care I love that country tho). If my country won I don’t know if they’d afford hosting all those foreign singer I swear to God but I still want it to win just for the sake of it because I think we never did 😂😂

[@marisa6786]

If I'm gonna try to explain it in american terms Eurovision is about as big as Super bowl. A bit like the Olympics for music. Everyone watches it. Every country sends in a song and they compete. But the whole show is fabulously wonderfully weird. Like this song, nothing on how weird it can get. It's been going on since the 50's and are in some ways part of a long going peace effort in the EU. Talent Shows has nothing to do with this. You should watch it. It's really is something special. It's always a lot, and definitely not only in a good way. I would recommend watching it with the BBC commentary, they are pretty much considered to have the best and funniest commentary. And who the host country is really matters. Like the production value is all over the place. Sweden have been highly praised as a host country, either malmö 2013 or stockholm 2016 are both good. But last year in portugal was good. If you want to see the context for this performance.

Looking at all the comments I notice something that everybody gets wrong.... it's NOT a singing competition, it really is a POLITICAL game. What country gives what country points. And what's so obvious about it is is because the points of the audience at home is always very different to what country points go to. All the neighbour countries give eachother their points, stuff like that

[@TimZoet]

also no song is live. Everyone at Eurovision playbacks, don't know why tho

[@alfa6894]

Joeri Spek only the instruments are playback, all vocals are 100% live

[@m1ssb3having]

The jury is different then the televise because the jury is made of music professionals or those involved in media and entertainment, so they’re judging based on musicality and vocals and artistic-ness of the performance. Basically a way so that something incredibley flashy or silly doesn’t win just because of ridiculousness. Televote are the people, so sometimes they’re swayed by flashy staging or costumes rather than the song content, that’s why with the split, it’s a good middle ground to find where they meet. It was why Ukraine was awarded basically no points from the jury (he comes out of a coffin and proceeds to sit and play at a burning piano) and why Austria did well (nice genre of song, great vocals) but Israel won the televote and scored very high with the jury, so it’s a combination of this that actually contributes to the final winner. Some countries are politically voting for their neighbors (Greece/Cyrprus, Scandinavia, balkans, etc) but you don’t just give one vote, it’s a Gaussian distribution from 12 to 1 point so even If you give Greece 12 points, you gotta award who you actually like a decent amount too. Also no European countries owe Israel anything. Same with Portugal last year who stole number one in both televote and jury.

[@Edandush]

Political voting is not as big as you think. Israel won despite not having any participating neighbours (and its neighbours hate it anyway) and no real bond with ANY other european country.

[@legaciestr]

Joeri Spek if it was about talent hungary would have won.

[@yianna2647]

46 countries from Europe participate each year. They have their own original songs and compete for the price. The winning country is gonna host the competition the following year. This competition is happening for 60 years now and around 117 million people watch it every year. In my country and generally in Europe this competition is pretty big, like superbowl. People from each country are allowed to vote every country except theirs and also there are judges that also vote. The winner comes from judges and peoples total points. :)

[@MarieFlaaten]

As a European I’ve grown up with Eurovision and it was never confusing, so let me try to explain it simply for everyone that doesn’t know what it is. Every European country that wants to compete sends a representative whether this is trough a own competition in their country like the Scandinavian countries does or something else. Then every country except Germany, France, the uk, Italy, Spain (the big five) and last years winning country goes trough two semi finals where they preform their song and ten countries from each one goes trough to the actual final. In the final each country preforms their song again and a jury from each country hands out points from 1-12 to their favourite artists, then they add the television votes and the one with the highest score combined wins. Bonus fact: This voting system is very new and makes Alexander Rybak, the winner of 2009 still have the actual highest score from Eurovision, because if you were to convert the highest score after the change, his would still be the highest. This is why he’s known as the king or prince of Eurovision. This is the easiest way to explain Eurovision so I hope it wasn’t too confusing and too long.

Marie Steinum | Italy was not even participating between 1997-2011.

In my totally biased opinion (Irishman here) he is the prince of Eurovision cauae every Irish person knows Johnny Logan is the King of Eurovision. He won it twice for Ireland and a third time as a song writer. Also he was Australian with Irish roots so when people say why is Australia in the competition, Johnny Logan that's why ok.

Man, so many angry man-children in the comments here. Anyway, it's entirely goddamn unnecessary to insult him for not knowing what Eurovision is about and struggling to understand the lyrics. There's not a whole lot of Eurovision coverage or even promotional material for it here in Amerclca. The lyrics being difficult to pick out throughout some spots have nothing to do with accents, and everything to do with the speed, the other musical elements that at times make it simply hard to hear the words, and most importantly, the _intentional_ stylized pronunciation that every singer employs to some degree. In that regard, she reminds me a bit of Adele, who is often difficult to understand. But I digress. What I originally wanted to do here, before everyone else's ignorance frustrated me, was make a request! Would you consider reacting to Elina Ivashchenko performing "1944" on The Voice Kids Ukraine? That is the song that won Eurovision in 2016, but I believe Elina's performance far surpasses the original, which is already a fantastic song to begin with!

I wouldnt compare this to an american idol and voice cuz every country has a competitions like these ones.. Eurovision is international.... each country that wants to compete chooses a one representative singer with a song .... one of them winns.. now that Netta from Israel won, the next eurovision is going to take place in israel.... its always the winning country to host the competition. american idol and voice and european competitions being a coppy of these two happen only inside of a country and usually there are people who arent famous and recognised. In eurovision, the contestants are already a singers recognised in their own country.. for example if the united states wanted to attend eurovision, you guys would pick an already existing singer and song which u think is the best one and has a chance to win ... and u send the singer to perform the song to the country where the eurovision is being hosted.... thats it... its not about talent... its not a talent competition cuz they already are talented and are singers..... its about the best song and the best performance... Im surprised u didnt understand what she was singing because the sang the whole song in english...not everybody does that many contestants sing in their native language.....sometimes the message is not important and the song is just catchy and they have a good performance.... in this song, the message was important for you to understand whats going on.. good thing she was singing in english
