Wait for the next half century to pass before the BBC get their hands on the contest. Then you'll see fantastic production values and wonderful presentation and direction.
Honestly, why do Germany and Sweden insist on claiming recycling as something that is typical for them? I'm Czech, I lived in Germany and now live in Sweden. German only recycle so much because they produce unbelievable amounts of trash. And Sweden recycles about the same as Czechia. But you don't hear Czechs boast about it because for us it's such a normal thing to do.
Can we just appreciate Petra Mede’s dedication when she hosted Eurovision this year. She alone hosted the two semi-finals and the grand final. She was effortlessly funny and full of charisma. And on top of that she was the main performer for the interval
I know I’m a bit late, but Sweden may win Eurovision this year. If we win it will be hosted in Stockholm 2024 and then Petra will probably be the host.
@@danielsoderstrom1930 I speak Italian pretty damn well.. The usual word for Mud is "fango" so I see a hilarious joke in "fangad" (captured) by a Stormvind.. LOL
I think we can all agree, Petra Melde is the best host Eurovision ever had and ever will have. 2013 and 2016, she just nailed it from beginning to end. Love from Switzerland (no we're not the same country)
From the UK I thought that was the best Eurovision there has been because of this! This host nailed this performance and I know that everyone loved it!
Sweden for this I will always love you! For laughing at yourself, for having two men getting married on stage and for not trying to impress the rest of Europe with skyscrapers you've just built! THANK YOU THIS WAS TOP CLASS!!
I swear Sweden hosts the best Eurovision in 2013 and 2016. I wish Petra would do shows in English, she's amazing. I kinda hope Sweden wins every year just so we get her for another year.
Ich glaube Deutschland war hauptsächlich für deutsche Stefan Raab Fans lustig 😉 Ich fand Petra Mede mit Mans am Besten. Love, Love, Peace, Peace kann man nicht toppen 😂
every eurovision since 2013 i just pray it's as good as this. it only happened once since, and that was 2016 when she did it again! Petra is perfection!
Hahaa! :D I was in Stockholm last summer, and I had to queue for a queue number! It's awesome that everything is so structured in Stockholm (and probably in the rest of Sweden too).
I'm glad you mentioned Katie. She was irreplaceable really. Things have never quite been the same since..betnod.com/threads/eurovision-song-contest-2016.7949/page-5
Sweden put on an awesome show, one of the best in years. After Azerbaijan's disappointment (Elkar can't speak English!), Petra was the leading lady of this show and did the part better than anyone else could. And this interval act was the icing of the cake.
I am no expert on Sweden, even if one of my best friends is half-swedish, but this just says a lot about a country. I envy the quality Sweden showed in being able to laugh at yourself and still be confident and show you love your country. It warmed my heart to see this! Switzerland is just so bloody serious all the time, laughing's forbidden by law here you'd think. Keep it up!
As a Swede, I would say that this clip shows how crazy Sweden is when it comes to Eurovision. It's a wonder the rest of EU hasn't locked us all up in an insane assulym.
I love it, just shows that the swedes have a sense of humour, the whole Eurovision Song Contest is a big camp funny joke so why people take this so seriously is beyond me, in the uk we took the Mickey out of ourselves at the Olympic show with the queen parachuting out of a helicopter, well done Sweden this was the best part of the night loved it
I was right on the doorstep of Eurovision this year (living in Copenhagen with family in Malmø) and I'm lucky enough that it's going to be on the doorstep again next year. I had an absolute BLAST! The Swedes handled this one in style and brought back the element of FUN that's been missing the last few years because people take it far too seriously. LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT!!
"Never ever talk on a train..." Is this a Europe thing? because when I went to Milan and rode a train, it was dead silent and no one was happy. It was disturbing.
It was nice for once to be able to laugh at a eurovision song contest when it was actually trying to be funny. Good comidic approach not some silly sales pitch of a song, love it :D hope you where takeing notes Denmark, thats how you host a 4 hour show!
I wish we had this on in the states I'm glad my Swedish and Austrian friends told me about it I'm going to watch all of the shows I can it is very entertaining.
Loreen is awesome, but that night Petra was better than Loreen. Maybe I expected too much of Loreen because she was supposed to be the big act, the Sweden's celebration of victory and it was obvious they tried, but it just wasn't as entertaining as this.
+Nadja Nordin gröning You actually did top it this year! Most entertaining Eurovision éver so far, in my opinion. Can Sweden just win every few years from now on? ;)
This is so brilliant. The lyrics were written by an English composer named Matheson Bayley - at least the UK was involved in something successful this year ;-)
Carola is one of my favourite singers from Eurovision. And I am talking not only about "Framling", "Fangad av en stormvind" and "Invincible". She has a beautiful voice, she is just awesome. By the way, I am from Ukraine
I love how 98% of this applies to Finland too (some even more tham to Sweden) and also makes me a bit sad, because it would be very difficult for us to do a song/add like this now :P Still, here's hoping Helsinki 2020!
except if one wants to visit ONE BETTER BE AN EFFING BILLIONAIRE.. Those countries prices are insane (for a good reason TBH) but the worst are the alcohol prices JEEBUS.
Okay, thanks for answering! :) I went to Denmark last year, and I remember what a peaceful country it was! Everyone formed a queue to get on the bus, loved it!
Sweden hosted the best contest in a long long time :) Azerbaijan was so dull wet towels had more personality than those presenters. And Denmark was dull with boring presenters and a far too big stage.
if you base your entertainment on political terms then go ahead and say they you shame on me, but I rather believe this is a song contest where expression through voice is a wonderful showcase. I don't agree with most of the policies on Russia but to me this is a totally different thing, it's like thinking the "boo-ing" on the Tolmachevy sisters was fair when they didn't did anything wrong and at their 17s they stood up head held high for their song. Russia is a good host and I'd like to see the contest go back to that country, as well as the other countries like Spain and Germany.
***** that's impressive, I've found all presenters from Scandinavian countries very polite and charming. I wonder why would anyone hate her, but I must admit the #Milf commentary from eric saase was quite hillarious.
Andreas Casablancas I think that the hosts of the Semi-final in moscow where very good. they had a great chemistry. but the two hosts in the final where really dull and you could really see that they read a script.
Can we all just agree that Sweden hosts every year? They're the best hosts ever. They make Eurovision rival the Tony's.
Toon Holman I mean, Eurovision is already way bigger than the Tony’s is
Wait for the next half century to pass before the BBC get their hands on the contest. Then you'll see fantastic production values and wonderful presentation and direction.
Petra and Mena from.portugal are the best 😁
I'm dissapointed that Finland didn't win but I'm excited what Sweden will make of the show next year ;)
@@grahamnancledra7036turns out we didn't have to wait that long!

Can we appreciate that Petra managed to sneak the word “titties” into Eurovision.
🤣
It’s a body part no big deal
the fact that petra sang this live. ALSO she is so calm and collected. Best host ever
So Petra has deserved to win Eurovision twice, once alone and once with Mans. GOD DAMNIT SWEDEN GET HER IN MELFEST SEND HER AND GO WIN ESC AGAIN
She never won, she has hosted it cause SVT asked her to and 2 occasions
I'm afraid she'd be disqualified for having more than 6 people on stage 😅🤣
I know I’m a bit late, but Sweden may win Eurovision this year. If we win it will be hosted in Stockholm 2024 and then Petra will probably be the host.

Petra and Måns will host Eurovision 2016, feels good!
It will be a success. Proud swede!
oh hell yea it was such a success. never enjoyed eurovision so much! thanks to the swedes!
EigentlichSinnlos definitely the best one
And a success it was. :-)
Sweden for this I will always love you! For laughing at yourself, for having two men getting married on stage and for not trying to impress the rest of Europe with skyscrapers you've just built! THANK YOU THIS WAS TOP CLASS!!
It'd be peetty hard to impress other countries with our skyscrapers since we onlt have 2.

Toon Holman Look at Germany 2011!
Maybe this year we have a chance to come close to winning, at least? 🇸🇪 I think I might know who steals our thunder…

Sweden is best in ESC hosting
You mean Petra Mede. I propose we have her host every show from now on.
Thank you for saying that you should come visit
Petra is the queen of hosting modern Eurovision (as Katie Boyle is queen of classic Eurovision).
I'm glad you mentioned Katie. She was irreplaceable really. Things have never quite been the same since..betnod.com/threads/eurovision-song-contest-2016.7949/page-5
I'm probably the only Swede to watch this for the first time 6 years after the show. Laughed so much when Carola was captured in the Lövstorm 🤣🤣 🌬🍂
No host will ever be better.
I think Petra should have won last year! This could beat every song in the contest! Haha
We will have a little more of Petra in 2024! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Petra 2016!
AlbaFlavius Petra every year!
"To host a show you cant afford" sweden should know alot about that :)
Ireland
ironically they DID put Malmo on a budget that year. Of course they blew their was on Stockholm 2016 o.0 LOL
It kind of pays back when all the eurovision freaks pay flights, hotels and attendance!

I agree with everyone else - Petra was the best Eurovision host ever!
One of the best break number in eurovision, well done from Denmark. Lets see what they do nexts year in 2016.
I can’t wait for next years show. You just know it’s gonna be good.
Petra Mede
The Brits are better at queueing? Pfft, please. You haven't queued until you have stood in a queue to receive a queue number ;)
And the winner is.... Petra Mede and the director of this phantastic show biz appearance! LOVE!!!
Sweden put on an awesome show, one of the best in years. After Azerbaijan's disappointment (Elkar can't speak English!), Petra was the leading lady of this show and did the part better than anyone else could. And this interval act was the icing of the cake.
This was the best act of the entire show, in all aspects.
Sweden took 5 minutes to do what would usually take hours to get through in an olympics opening ceremony
One year later & I'm still watching this :')
3 for me..😂
Pegasister mlp Hahaha, same!
im watching this like ehhh 6 years later XD
Runa Pettersson same
Just like, sweden can you win every year. I just love how petra hosts this show😭😂
I cant get enough of this

Making fun of ourself is like a thing we cant live without. Tbh, easier because atleast we know noone will take offense. 😂
Now I want to go to Sweden again
3:53 I think that China stopped the broadcast when this happened
I can’t believe Petra got away with 3:01
I love it, just shows that the swedes have a sense of humour, the whole Eurovision Song Contest is a big camp funny joke so why people take this so seriously is beyond me, in the uk we took the Mickey out of ourselves at the Olympic show with the queen parachuting out of a helicopter, well done Sweden this was the best part of the night loved it
Definitely made watching Eurovision worthwhile this year - genius! I think Petra should come to the UK and have a TV show here too!
I was right on the doorstep of Eurovision this year (living in Copenhagen with family in Malmø) and I'm lucky enough that it's going to be on the doorstep again next year. I had an absolute BLAST!

Progressive and proud of it, way to go Sweden!
Sweden is SO-SO, but Petra Mede is FANTASTIC!
I knew I was going to love this once I saw how they put the Swedish Chef and Death from The Seventh Seal in the same picture. :D
"Never ever talk on a train..." Is this a Europe thing? because when I went to Milan and rode a train, it was dead silent and no one was happy. It was disturbing.
Yes😂😂
Where in the world DO people talk on trains? :/
LOVE YOU Petra Mede and the creators of this. Best ever - most generous presentation of the complex culture of the Swedes that I LOVE
I loved this song, was truly amazing and made me laugh so much. It's a shame not all of Europe got to see it as they would have been on an ad break.
Semi final 2 2024 brought me back here ♥️
Yasss she was so good at doing love love peace peace with mans she was the true winner
Oh look it's Carola! And then the music starts, I love that part!
Greetings from Ireland, she was the best host of the Eurovison by a country mile. A hell of a sexy woman as well..I'm in love!
It's July and I keep watching this video... I absolutely adore Sweden! With love from Italy ;-)

Detta var den bästa och roligaste delen på eurovision song contest! Bra gjort kära fosterland! 3
Whoever presents the contest next year is going to have a hard act to follow!
I wish we had this on in the states I'm glad my Swedish and Austrian friends told me about it I'm going to watch all of the shows I can it is very entertaining.
You have the American Song Contest now, currently on NBC! A bunch of Swedes went to the US to sell the idea to broadcasters and here we are now. 😊
I would absolutely love it if Petra and Anke hosted together it would be absolutely hilarious! Love Ireland!
Loreen is awesome, but that night Petra was better than Loreen. Maybe I expected too much of Loreen because she was supposed to be the big act, the Sweden's celebration of victory and it was obvious they tried, but it just wasn't as entertaining as this.
I loved the Euphoria version with that kids.. that was a wonderful treat.
BEST PERFORMANCE ON SHOW.

This is so hilarious! Petra Mede is by far, one of the best comedians that I have ever heard of! She nailed this show!
I hope she hosts again next year =)
+jayare1234 She will :D
Petra for host every year!
Ah... how will we ever top this next year??
Easy take Petra to lead again ;)
+Nadja Nordin gröning You actually did top it this year! Most entertaining Eurovision éver so far, in my opinion. Can Sweden just win every few years from now on? ;)
Well, sounds great in my opinion, but probably expensive ;)
How about every year instead of every few?
Spoiler: They didn't even try.
I love Petra so much! Amazing!
This is so brilliant. The lyrics were written by an English composer named Matheson Bayley - at least the UK was involved in something successful this year ;-)
This was the most love ridden and to-the-point post i've seen on youtube since the dawn of internet time.
Right back at you, friend! /sweden

3 months on.. Still the best thing I have ever, ever seen.
