You know what I love most about this? This is the version she sang after she'd won, and at the end she changed to lyrics from "I'll rise up to the sky" to "WE'll rise up to sky", and "I'm gonna fly" to "WE'RE gonna fly". Her victory wasn't just for her. It was for anyone who'd ever been bullied, teased, or made fun of for simply being who they are. She showed that it doesn't matter how you look on the outside, as long as you're happy with yourself! And that's what makes her and this song so special.
At least I can agree upon that. Some LBTG.people make this song being about them, but it is not. It's for everyone. I don't like the song / her personally, but I can appreaciate the message behind it
Always tearing up at this amazing voice! This winner version is SO much better than the ones before!!! The additional confidence and freedom she now emits, the inclusive changing of "i" to "we", the playful index finger gesturing, this sheer radiance and emotion ... no matter if you yourself experienced identity struggles, i believe this performance just reaches deep into any human soul. Bless Conchita's courage! It sure wasn't easy to come this far
Am I the only one really happy that she changed "I" to "we" to include everyone? Really emphasises the words she spoke about unity in her acceptance speech.

Conchita isn't someone to be spoken about like trash, or referred to as 'it'. SHE is beautiful and magnificently talented. The negative comments here are the exact reason it's so important she won this and gained so much recognition, and also felt accepted by an entire continent. Narrow minded, ignorant people are the reason she needed this and deserved it more than ever. I am behind Conchita 100%.
I don't know why everyone talks about the identity, instead of talking about the voice. After all these years, i still can't listen to this song without getting goosebumps. If there is someone that can't go over the identity, please just close your eyes and listen because it is a goddamn beautiful song!
@@cristinaeshanu4192 quel dommage de ne pouvoir écouter le talent de cet artiste. Homme, femme ? quelle importance ? on parle de chanson, de voix très puissante là... cela me désole que tu ne vois pas, que tu n'entendes pas cela...

Okey, I am seriously so fucking tired of this homophobic and transphobic crap. If you don't like or support here, don't go here and make nasty comments. Conchita is beautiful! She sings not only with her voice but with her whole heart. She have an amazing statement and everything is just amazing. Seriously. Eastern haters, go away. We don't like you.
I have a classmate who looks like him... Yeah, a man moving his muscles in a way they are not meant to move, contracting his bones to uncomfortable positions, wearing fake hair and nails, using clothing that does not match his figure, while forcing his voice to try to speak in a manner that is not natural in him... He is simply confused. He is talented and the song is beautiful. I wonder why he did not compete with that. Why did he had to compete with controversy. We all know he won just because of that.
Me encantó que cambió el "I'm" por el "we". Definitivamente esta canción es un himno a la lucha por la igualdad, y a la lucha en general por superar las adversidades. Estaba muy emocionada mientras cantaba ya sabiéndose ganadora. Mi admiración y felicitaciones a Conchita!

@@blanca4101 Why would it be ignorant to say 'he'? The character Conchita is a she/her, but the person behind the character, Thomas Neuwirth, is a cis man and goes by he/him. So, I'm kind of curious why it's that important to use the right gender for the fictional character. Is it a drag rule that you should never misgender a character?
The most unforgettable moment in the ESC history. Goosebumps still all over me. What a VICTORY! I laughed and cried with you Conchita, I jumped up and down. I was so happy for you - and us, your fans, theUnstoppables.

Guys, you're getting it all wrong. Conchita identifies as "non-binary", meaning she is inbetween male and female, though she prefers the female pronouns. It is this fucking simple. Just stop running away in fear and putting down what you don't know and/or don't understand. As for the song, I think her performance was beautiful and totally deserved to win.
All these people supporting Conchita after Arams joke about being homophobic? Now your all hating on her for winning eurovision? Seriously sort yourselves out i love Conchita! From UK
People nowadays do not recognise just how influential of a winner Conchita Wurst was. I was 11 when she won and for the next week or so all anyone was talking about was the bearded lady that won Eurovision. She tore down so many stereotypes and preconceptions that people had and challenged so much queerphobia around Europe. While she isn't quite my personal favourite winner (that honor goes to Jamala) she is without a doubt the most impactful.
Представьте что вы слушаете эту песню по радио. И ничего не знаете о исполнителе. Нужно видеть в человеке не оболочку, а душу. Песня прекрасна. А кто ее поет это уже второстепенное. И каждый сам отвечает за свою жизнь которую проживает.
All the haters even 9 years ago proving people can not accept one another, listen to the lyrics and emotion, the voice and her personality on stage, it is beyond mesmerising
She's the face of eurovision imo. Absolutely iconic, and with this song Conchita Wurst truly represents what the contest is about! She's an absolute legend.
I love that she even changed the lyrics at the end, the song really represents what's starting to happen in our societies. You go Conchita! And for the haters, no matter how much you dislike her videos, that won't change the reality that she won.
Here comes the new European Empress! "This night is dedicated to everyone who believes in a future of peace and freedom... We are unity and we are unstoppable." - Conchita Wurst 05.10.14 Long Live The Empress! :)
For me she is a Symbol, she Shows me, that there is already a Little Bit Hope in the World, to become a better Place, Not only Europe and the eu, also all the other beautiful countries in the World, especially the Ukraine, there are good People in the World, and These few should "rise like a phoenix" and make the World a better Place! Conchita is Legendary!!!
I never expected Conchita to win, but I am very happy that she won because the song is great, it represents her and the lyrics are amazing :D Congratulations Austria and congratulations Denmark for an AMAZING Eurovision Week. PS: I'm not gay or anything else you want to presume just because I like the song.
Screw the haters - I honestly don't care what she looks like, she has a talent and that's what counts! Signing is for the ears and emotions, not for the eyes.
happily blasting this song while im at my strict christian school with pride.. such an inspiration. Still cant believe how much a cried of happiness when she won eurovision... oops? will always support her, and so glad that the world is advancing within the LGBT community.
She's absolutely stunning! I teared up. Watch with your heart not your rigid mind. This is the future of humanity's sexuality. Talent is talent. period
Поздравления Австрии! Песня прекрасная. В минорной тональности, в стиле песен-заставок к фильмам о Джеймсе Бонде. Замечательная музыка, хороший текст и прекрасное исполнение! Без бек-вокала, без подтанцовок, она просто стоит почти не двигаясь и держит зал одним своим присутствием. Для этого нужно обладать огромной харизмой, харизмой звезды! Conchita, респект и уважуха!
I don't get the people who say she ONLY won due to her look. Of course her appearance boosted her whole performance. But I mean, imagine if she had competed with, let's say, Georgia's song. Or Germany's. Or Greece's. What it takes to be a winner, is the artist AND the song AND the performance, and all three of them have been great so that's why she is a worthy winner.

What I love about this song is the MESSAGE. Whether you're gay or straight, you can relate to this song if you've experienced hardship in your life. It's a song about perseverance, and seeing the message of the song come true through her victory was chilling.
When is about music we vote music,only music ,doesn;t matter what is he! The song is really very good and he has a beautiful voice!He deserved to win for such music!
I remember how people use to say that Eurovision judgment in 2014 was related with Conchita's case , they brought up so many theories and controversies about her taking the first place. Please, now watch the 2018 Eurovision and let's talk about it! Compare
Как же это чудо шикарно держится на сцене. Подача, свет, сама песня и голос. На самом деле, волшебно. Этот молодой человек будет достойнее, чем нынешние мадамы с кроссовками и рваными джинсами. Камон, будьте толерантны. Шоу превосходно.

I feel like the song is representing how Conchita is changing (or has already changed) into a female. A Phoenix is a female bird, so it corresponds, and the "once I'm transformed, once I'm reborn" is signifying his change into Conchita. 😊 Well done, Austria, from Ireland!
That voice! Flawless. Shirley Bassey would've been proud. Probably the most exciting thing from Austria since "Sound Of Music".:) Can't wait to see how they imagine ESC next year. It's a long wait:(
Conchita may not have had the best voice, or the best song, in the competition, but she did have something else usually sorely missing from this show, and that is an actual _vision_. I believe she meant every word of her song and the meaning behind it. It takes a lot of bravery to put yourself out there for other people's criticism and express yourself and what your genuine "Euro Vision" is. It's amazing that people responded as well as they did, and given some of the responses on here alone, I'm surprised she won.
Utterly amazing and gorgeous. I remember the buzz about Concitta and people's reactions. Eurovision often pushes boundaries which is ace. Now it's becoming less sensational when a person has a non- traditionally proscribed gender or image. Last summer I saw stunning burlesque dancers at a club on stilts with under arm hair and curvy girls in fishnet body stockings. They would have caused an uproar at one point. Hopefully we can reach the stage where we don't even comment on these things. Still a way to go. Ha bit of a waffle but enjoy Eurovision everyone x
Классный парень. Поёт отлично. С юмором и смелостью. Да какая, к чёрту, разница, есть борода или нет. Это шоу. А если боитесь за своих детей, отучите их материться с малолетства, дайте хорошие книги, воспитывайте правильно, учите анализировать и размышлять самостоятельно, и тогда никакая борода никакой девушки их не смутит, чтобы трезво и с юмором смотреть на жизнь.
Какой нафиг юмор? Он пропагандирует свободу сексуальных меньшинств. Он голубой(сам признался в интервью), да еще выступает на Мировой сцене в женском образе. КАК ЭТО МОЖНО ОБЪЯСНИТЬ РЕБЕНКУ? Никак.
Crazy how the winning performance's vocals are better than the ones in the prevoting performance, I actually think that's because she feels it rather than just singing it
To everyone who doesn't know if Wurst is a he or she, this is how Conchita came to be. He was born as Tom Neuwirth. Then after performing in lots of singing competitions, he got asked to host an Austrian singing competition (I forgot the name of it) and he thought 'Why not do it in drag?', but then he realised that he has to shave his beard to do that. So he asked if the woman making it wouldn't mind have a bearded lady hosting her show so the woman making it said yes and Conchita liked it so that is how the bearded lady Conchita Wurst (The Queen of Europe) came to be.
I have a classmate who looks like him... Yeah, a man moving his muscles in a way they are not meant to move, contracting his bones to uncomfortable positions, wearing fake hair and nails, using clothing that does not match his figure, while forcing his voice to try to speak in a manner that is not natural in him... He is simply confused. He is talented and the song is beautiful. I wonder why he did not compete with that. Why did he had to compete with controversy. We all know he won just because of that. It makes me sad to think that there are so many people in the world that in a dog talent contest would vote for the dog that has a cat tail and the ears of a mouse... :(
You know what I love most about this? This is the version she sang after she'd won, and at the end she changed to lyrics from "I'll rise up to the sky" to "WE'll rise up to sky", and "I'm gonna fly" to "WE'RE gonna fly".
Her victory wasn't just for her. It was for anyone who'd ever been bullied, teased, or made fun of for simply being who they are. She showed that it doesn't matter how you look on the outside, as long as you're happy with yourself! And that's what makes her and this song so special.

And 8 years later I am still waiting for the James Bond film!
What I love about this song is the MESSAGE. Whether you're gay or straight, you can relate to this song if you've experienced hardship in your life. It's a song about perseverance, and seeing the message of the song come true through her victory was chilling.
I dont know why yere all complaining she won so get over it!!
You can't be against the appearance, but what a song and what a voice. Wonderful performance!
When is about music we vote music,only music ,doesn;t matter what is he!
The song is really very good and he has a beautiful voice!He deserved to win for such music!
I remember how people use to say that Eurovision judgment in 2014 was related with Conchita's case , they brought up so many theories and controversies about her taking the first place. Please, now watch the 2018 Eurovision and let's talk about it! Compare
Золотые слова
Как же это чудо шикарно держится на сцене. Подача, свет, сама песня и голос. На самом деле, волшебно. Этот молодой человек будет достойнее, чем нынешние мадамы с кроссовками и рваными джинсами. Камон, будьте толерантны. Шоу превосходно.
Шад ап. !!
НАСТОЛЬКО БЫЛА ПОТРЯСЕНА ЕЁ ВЫСТУПЛЕНИЕМ ЧТО НАЧАЛСЯ ПРИСТУП АСТМЫ . ОБОЖАЮ!

Waking in the rubble
Walking over glass
Neighbors say we're trouble
Well that time has passed
Peering from the mirror
No, that isn't me
Stranger getting nearer
Who can this person be
You wouldn't know me at all today from the fading light I fly
Rise like a phoenix
Out of the ashes seeking rather than vengeance
Retribution you were warned
Once I'm transformed
Once I'm reborn
You know I will rise like a phoenix
But you're my flame
Go about your business
Act as if you're free
No one could have witnessed
What you did to me
'Cause you wouldn't know me today
And you have got to see
To believe
From the fading light I fly
Rise like a phoenix
Out of the ashes seeking rather than vengeance
Retributionyou were warned
Once I'm transformed
Once I'm reborn
I rise up to the sky
You threw me down but
I'm gonna fly
And rise like a phoenix
Out of the ashes seeking rather than vengeance
Retribution you were warned
Once I'm transformed
Once I'm reborn
You know I will rise like a phoenix
But you're my flame
I like how she changed the lyrics to "WE rise up to the sky...WE'RE gonna fly" once she won :) Very worthy winner
I love this singer and and the lyrics of this song ...no matter who you are , your beautiful ❤
People be hating this song cause of Conchita’s look.... sad world.
JEALOUUUUS.
The best song and the best performer i ever have seen in this contest.
Conchita U are amazing, great song & congratulations from Mexico
I feel like the song is representing how Conchita is changing (or has already changed) into a female. A Phoenix is a female bird, so it corresponds, and the "once I'm transformed, once I'm reborn" is signifying his change into Conchita. 😊 Well done, Austria, from Ireland!
This song is just as amazing and as iconic to this today 😍 x
This should be next Bond song!! I loved it year ago I came back here today and I still have goosebumps watching this!
Jettchick it reminds me of disney
Jettchick I get goosebumps every time I hear her sing. She is amazing😍
James Bond?
When I heard that song for the first time, I didn't like it. But now... I'm crying!
Molly VB
Same...years back i didnt like the song at all but now I love it...weird
And you guys really have reason to cry...
Same
So you converted ey?
That voice! Flawless. Shirley Bassey would've been proud.
Probably the most exciting thing from Austria since "Sound Of Music".:)
Can't wait to see how they imagine ESC next year. It's a long wait:(
Conchita Wurst born to be the STAR. FC from THAILAND.
I know why their’s many dislike……Because they will never be this gorgeous with a very amazing voice ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💒
Judge The Performance, The Talent & The Song Presentation ....This is Incredible IMO.....Bob Fox
I really don't know why, but I love this 💛
i can still say that this is perfect eurovision winner, that is one of the best eurovision winner of all time, greetings from finland
figures youre a finn
ugh
🌍 👍 .I was very pleased that most people judged the performance and the song fairly, regardless of appearance and dress 👍
This song, this performance has such a beauty to it - it’s insane. Conceits is so talented it warms my heart
Ukraine is Russia.
figures you have ukr flag you sicko
Conchita may not have had the best voice, or the best song, in the competition, but she did have something else usually sorely missing from this show, and that is an actual _vision_. I believe she meant every word of her song and the meaning behind it. It takes a lot of bravery to put yourself out there for other people's criticism and express yourself and what your genuine "Euro Vision" is.
It's amazing that people responded as well as they did, and given some of the responses on here alone, I'm surprised she won.
EuroMIX2 I know this was a long time ago but it's a he
It's 2020 and I still get chills from this song😍
PERFECT AND STILL ICONIC
This MAN diserved to win !
Utterly amazing and gorgeous. I remember the buzz about Concitta and people's reactions. Eurovision often pushes boundaries which is ace. Now it's becoming less sensational when a person has a non- traditionally proscribed gender or image. Last summer I saw stunning burlesque dancers at a club on stilts with under arm hair and curvy girls in fishnet body stockings. They would have caused an uproar at one point. Hopefully we can reach the stage where we don't even comment on these things. Still a way to go. Ha bit of a waffle but enjoy Eurovision everyone x
Still the Queen of Eurovision - what a breathtaking performance
Классный парень. Поёт отлично. С юмором и смелостью. Да какая, к чёрту, разница, есть борода или нет. Это шоу.
А если боитесь за своих детей, отучите их материться с малолетства, дайте хорошие книги, воспитывайте правильно, учите анализировать и размышлять самостоятельно, и тогда никакая борода никакой девушки их не смутит, чтобы трезво и с юмором смотреть на жизнь.
Какой нафиг юмор? Он пропагандирует свободу сексуальных меньшинств. Он голубой(сам признался в интервью), да еще выступает на Мировой сцене в женском образе. КАК ЭТО МОЖНО ОБЪЯСНИТЬ РЕБЕНКУ? Никак.

Jane Lo а как вы ребёнку объясняете ДОМ2, например? всё, что происходит там, вас не смущает?
Да! Поддерживаю.
Yana Kolomenskaya а зачем ребенку объяснять что либо о дом 2? Лучше займитесь ребёнком и давайте смотреть такую фигню
came back here after the eurovision film on netflix :) I missed her.
Crazy how the winning performance's vocals are better than the ones in the prevoting performance, I actually think that's because she feels it rather than just singing it
One of the best song won eurovision ever! Amazing singer and song!
101% Well deserved
To everyone who doesn't know if Wurst is a he or she, this is how Conchita came to be. He was born as Tom Neuwirth. Then after performing in lots of singing competitions, he got asked to host an Austrian singing competition (I forgot the name of it) and he thought 'Why not do it in drag?', but then he realised that he has to shave his beard to do that. So he asked if the woman making it wouldn't mind have a bearded lady hosting her show so the woman making it said yes and Conchita liked it so that is how the bearded lady Conchita Wurst (The Queen of Europe) came to be.
+Bailey Smith History of Europe right here guys!
die große chance or starmania
jlteiga Burlesque performance* and had to do it in drag anyways but he didn’t like shaving his beard so he asked to keep it on
big if tru
he took part in "die große Chance" as Conchita ... this was his first Television appearance ...
2018 and still ICONIC!
Yes
Euuuuu...
2021 still iconic
2024 and still ICONIC ❤❤❤❤
Someone at the Euros who can actually sing
GOOSEBUMBS after 4 years OMG true winner
***** That was the moment.
YOUR moment
I have a classmate who looks like him... Yeah, a man moving his muscles in a way they are not meant to move, contracting his bones to uncomfortable positions, wearing fake hair and nails, using clothing that does not match his figure, while forcing his voice to try to speak in a manner that is not natural in him... He is simply confused. He is talented and the song is beautiful. I wonder why he did not compete with that. Why did he had to compete with controversy. We all know he won just because of that. It makes me sad to think that there are so many people in the world that in a dog talent contest would vote for the dog that has a cat tail and the ears of a mouse... :(
ElMITHOS Maldonado It's ok, when you aren't a fan of Conchita, but I think she is a talented singer. And I'm not alone.
