3 years later Mans more or less up the ante with Eurovision: You Decide performance with everything that made England great at Eurovision, but for some reason omitted the 1969 co-winning entry.
Agree 😍🙏🏼 but Petra was supposed to host another big show in Sweden this spring but has an chronical deseas that stopped her. Hope she get well soon ❤️
They supported the new movie starring Will Ferrell and Rachel McAdams - they even approved of it. It stars cameos from loads of great recent winners - and is presented exactly like you would expect on TV. It's zany and silly, but ultimately shows Eurovision to be what we know - fun, lots of fun! :)
Eurovision doesn't take itself so seriously. That's actually why I think it appeals to so many. It's certainly not the great music, right? xD :P It's a huge party.
Xiuchen Phan Those are a not reprsentative sample of entries from the last 7 years, most of them failing miserably as well. The contest is so much more than those stuff.
It was made by 1 of the swedish pros too, Edward af Silèn hes usually commenting on swedish television when it comes to eurovision, but this particular year he had to take a break because he was too involved with the production. He based the song on 1 of his odd eurovision favorites and asked 1 of swedens best songwriters suitable for it Fredrik Kempe to make some minor tweaks
@@jeffiner1892 better than riverdance imo. It might not have the impact but I genuinely don't think they could've written, scripted or performed this any better!
In what terms ? Composition, lyrics, what ? People are becoming more and more superficial these days...A masterpiece won, so many good songs from different countries on stage but people will end up supporting a damaging after all was said and done interval act. At first I liked it but seeing how it emboldens those who want esc to be a circus I hope we wont see such interval acts ever again in the contest.
The winning song was great but as of this day I think songs which's chorus you can sign should be ones that win and which are more easy to remember (and usually doesn't need checking the lyrics)

As an american, you simply have to watch. Eurovision is something that must be experienced to be understood. If you can get by some of the subtle political messages and sometimes zany performances, it's actually enjoyable and I look forward to it each year.

Fabian81 maybe you are right but when I see this video I remember when I was younger and I started to be an eurofan (violins, trumpets, drums, dances, traditional sounds, performances... everythink was new and cool to me) Now im a diferent kind of Eurofan but still remember that years.
Fabian81 I saw and hear all that music and a love a lot of that songs too but still having good mucic today (like Alexander Rybak, Lorene or some "not winers") but I know that there are bullshit too... like verska verduchka or the old grandmas from rusia. The only thing im totally agree with you is the fact that televote ruin the show... neighbours voting neighbours... i dont like that... maybe we shouldnt know where the artist is from until he/she wins. Are you agree with me?
+ @ Ahs Roxahs I already wrote this somewhere above but I think I can repeat for the sake of that I like how you watched older performances too even though you are younger pearson apparently (hey, I'm too! ^^). It is MORE than ten years here in this thing - her costume on 1:39 is refference to 1999 swedish performance when costume was exactly like that, for one example. I am also too young to know how eurovision used to look like without televoting ~ I started watching it with my parents around 1998 I think and that was first time I was allowed to stay up so late for other reason than New Year :p. another thing! Verka Serduchka is not "bulls#it" as you say - it was serious ukrainian political message - but it was camouflaged into something funny and silly. In case you didn't found out so far - "lasha tumbai" is actually suppoused to be a phonetical remind of words "Russia, goodbye!". Ukraine sent another song to eurovision, with political (~anti-russian~) message with "1944". -That time, like we all know, it won... Also I actually like televoting... it shows political tendencies of masses from different countries... it is a thrill :p. Eurovision was created with politics taken into consideration... you cannot now totally isolate it from it. Afterall, this way it is more popular, I think. ;) And popularity of Eurovision brings Europe together... So I would not agree with this pearson either, who said as a reply to your comment, that we are forgetting why Eurovision was created for. Maybe we kinda are indeed forgetting about that *while watching it* nowadays, but for sure it has the same impact like it is *supposed to* have on ~europeans (and in last years Australia,... apparently..., too).
It baffles me as well. Why need 4 hosts trample over each other and awkward jokes cause there's no chemistry between the 4 whatsoever. I want to start a petition for Petra and Mans to host Eurovision every year.
I love how Justin Timberlake was meant to be THE big interval act that year...and this completely outshone him. But then look what happened to Madonna too...
She was so bad. Such an experienced and talented artist and that is what she performed? Now, anyone can have a bad day. Maybe she was sick or something?
@@goranbreskic3532 Madonna was never a great singer. She had great songs and a great image. Now she is old and can’t even hold a tune consistently but still has her fanbase.
Just know, the man who wrote these lyrics is the Swedish commentator each year and he never disappoint. He roast everything and I bet Sweden has the best time with his comments between acts
Though, sweds hate to win in a way. Because everyone gets salty due to the taxes rises when we're hosting it. It goes up by alooot. At least that's what people are saying. Personally, I haven't really noticed.
Hosting ESC cost Sweden about 12 million euro in both 2013 and 2016 . The host city takes about half the cost. The revenue gained from tourism, goodwill, etc. is thought to exceed this number.
I remember secretly watching eurovision under the blankets in my bed (It was bedtime lol) and I laughed sooo hard at the hysterious 'and a man in a hamster wheel'
I mean, I don't particularly want Sweden to win in 2022, but if it means we can get Mans and Petra hosting again, and version 2 of this song, I'm all for it.
Yeah, I have written under Cornelia Jakobs entry that I want Sweden to win only because I want Petra Mede to host Eurovision again (and the best would be with Måns, for sure)
This will always be the best thing that the ESC has ever produced. It will never be not funny and witty and even sexy. That night, it was the best song. It's just bloody brilliant.
No matter what anyone says, Mans and Petra will always be the best ever Eurovision hosts for me. They were just incredible all through out the night. Honestly, the most rememberable Erovision contest.
Please no. I don't like her. She seems so full of herself. And those "gay jokes" (satire or not) are so stereotypical and cliched. Many fans are NOT gay!
I love her enough to have hunted down the TV series "Bonus Family" she has been doing. Such a brilliant woman.. If I could just talk to her for 20 minute...
This should have actually won. It embodies everything I love about the Eurovision. This contest should never be classy with great singers singing in tune but rather a trainwreck of over the top performances one after the other.
bubblegumplastic Of course not. The musical level of the contest this year was excellent with great singers, good performances and very good songs overall and the focus should be on them. This interval act was funny but I saw it did more damage than good after all as it perpetuated some false stereotypes about the contest that should be left to die as they no longer exist anyway. The vision the initial commenter has for the contest is falling apart thankfully, the contest is rapidly regaining credibility throughout Europe and many great artists are coming on the esc stage nowadays. I hope the initial commenter (and you if you share that pitiful vision for the contest) to find a circus to satisfy your needs - cause the contest wont do it for you anymore sorry.
Oh and to the initial commenter : Thankfully you do not get to define what the contest will be about - the contest should be about worthy representatives of the musical scene of each country singing songs that will enter the european charts after the final - as it happens now. As I said already, go to a circus to get what you want cause esc has thankfully stopped being that.
@@Laumzhirgas mmm nope. Its because it got no beat and it's less catchy than the sounds coming out when I take a shit. I don't care if its political/meaningfull. Its just bad 🤷♂️
So basically, another year of slow ballads? And maybe some similar to "Hard Rock Hallelujah?" ...I feel like making this joke is gonna bite me in the ass XD

Nah, Riverdance does. Have you watched the video of it at Eurovision (which it was created for) on here? It brought the house down. It's apples and oranges though.
+Jos Schroons Sweden usually comes up with the best *WINNING* songs... I wouldn't be surprised if they won next year again in Kiev.... wouldn't mind tho. They seem to have the best shows all the time lel!
+Patrick Dooley Sweden holds six regional competitions, and one national to find our entry for Eurovision Song Contest. We take this competition far to serious in Sweden and winning is a result from that. But, can we afford to win in Kiev? Hosting is expensive, and winning the ESC 2015 was not the only expensive thing happening to Sweden that year.
You make a very good point, if it does occur, they could do what they did multiple times, let another country host. BBCs done it multiple times, i bet the wouldnt do it now though XD They could let new countries interested to host...... At least i know one country takes ESC seriously :) Greetings from Asia!
+Jos Schroons It's pretty funny actually, we're the best host, we've won the competition the most in recent years, and Swedish song writers are involved in more than half the songs these days... I don't know if it means we're the best or that we're the only ones who care and we're making fools of ourselves. :D
Is anyone else watching this on a regular basis? I love this so much, it always makes me smile. Also, best duo to ever present Eurovision. No discussion needed.
I met Måns at Heathrow airport just a couple days ago. We happened to get the same flight from Copenhagen and I had a full-blown case of Star-struck. He's such a nice guy. It was great.
3:00 - 3:10 - The face Petra makes while Måns sings "pretending we're in love", is worth gold (deliberate overacting in order to make it very ridiculous.... Damn, she nailed it).
"This can easily be fixed by adding a DJ who pretends to scratch. In _real life_ of course this is 30 years old, but in Eurovision it will give your number a contemporary feel." LOL! So funny! :D
It means that adding a DJ, will make you song sound like it is from the 90's. However, Eurovision is considered to be behind the rest of the world music wise, so in Eurovision it will sound very modern.
I think the flags are from a number by Carola. I can't figure out where the dancing couple in blue, yellow and white comes from, though. Same with the girl in the white outfit with her hair up--she reminds me of Pastora Soler, but I don't think it's her...
Until next year if Sweden should win this week. Remember Lill Lindfors' iconic dress when Sweden hosted in the eighties? They will top this in 2024 if we would be so lucky.
Sweden is by far the beat host of the eurovision i love their well thought creative organized and off course charismatic preformances Greetings from israel

You forgot the main melody chants ("Love, Love, Peace, Peace") which were taken as a reference to the Serbia&Montenegro song entry on Eurovision 2005 ("Zauvijek Moja")!
@@um1a691 Oh and of course MOLDOVA 2018.. Holy crap that was amazing... there's a video someone shot from the side, where you see the insane choreography behind that show. Also, Epic Sax Guy got the last laugh! Sustroke Project's triumphal return in 2017! 3rd place for a tiny, poor place like Moldova just melts your heart. That country is the Sweden of loveable craziness.
This sums up Eurovision perfectly. Don’t take it to seriously, just enjoy the ludicrously over the top silliness, irony, and poke fun at it a little bit while still actually deep down really loving it.
I am no Euro V fan at all, but these 2 are amazing presenters and I could watch them for hrs. They are better than any Euro show. I have met Mans and he was so cool and amazing live and i love his own music

i felt like listening to Eurovision nostalgia before going to school, and seeing this makes me so happy lol

Alexander should've used this to write a song.
Ron it was before that song
And its that's how you write a song
Niamh Cook i'm pretty sure he ment that Alex had to use the tips from this... 🤔
I believe he did

"Abba won the contest with a song about war, but this is not something we recommend"
1 hour later: Ukraine wins with a song about war
Hahah actually 😂
Sorry, what was the name of the song?
Sweden : "Waterloo" by ABBA
Ukraine : "1944" by Jamala
@@alamutukr It was an obvious political song thinly disguised as "history"
Yes, I agree, but it wasn't about the war!
Why have countries got the idea, that a Eurovision needs 4 hosts, you only need 2, and Måns and Petra proves that.
It baffles me as well. Why need 4 hosts trample over each other and awkward jokes cause there's no chemistry between the 4 whatsoever. I want to start a petition for Petra and Mans to host Eurovision every year.
@@todiepkhanh4509 SO MANY BAD JOKES

I love how Justin Timberlake was meant to be THE big interval act that year...and this completely outshone him. But then look what happened to Madonna too...
She was so bad. Such an experienced and talented artist and that is what she performed? Now, anyone can have a bad day. Maybe she was sick or something?
Måns might be a lucky guy, always stealing (but also deserving) the spotlight hahaha
But then

"and a man in a hamster wheel"
"more tricks in the hamster wheel"
Fjfghfeghdj

i find myself saying this at random times
by the end of the song, he climbs on top of the hamster wheel.
no one ever comments on HOW HOT the guy int he hamster wheel was; or how hot the Male dancer for Estonia 2014 was o.0
Aha, so Lars got this idea of man in a hamster wheel

Best hosts ever. But then again, no one does Eurovision like Sweden does :) They're the Eurovision masters
Though, sweds hate to win in a way. Because everyone gets salty due to the taxes rises when we're hosting it.
It goes up by alooot.
At least that's what people are saying. Personally, I haven't really noticed.
snowstar1331 yea hahahah aha
snowstar1331 totally agreed!
Hosting ESC cost Sweden about 12 million euro in both 2013 and 2016 . The host city takes about half the cost. The revenue gained from tourism, goodwill, etc. is thought to exceed this number.
Do you REALLY think the taxes get raised when Sweden is hosting the ESC? Then you're an idiot...
I remember secretly watching eurovision under the blankets in my bed (It was bedtime lol) and I laughed sooo hard at the hysterious 'and a man in a hamster wheel'
Wimsem - Tekenen & Knutselen Same 😂😂
Hahaha~,same!
I laughed so hard on “more tricks in the hamster wheel” 😂😂😂
Same
This is like the cutest story ever!
I mean, I don't particularly want Sweden to win in 2022, but if it means we can get Mans and Petra hosting again, and version 2 of this song,
I'm all for it.
As a Swede I must agree
Yeah, I have written under Cornelia Jakobs entry that I want Sweden to win only because I want Petra Mede to host Eurovision again (and the best would be with Måns, for sure)
they should host every song contest regardless of the country bc italy was a mess
agree, Swedish hosts were the best, Swedish entry in 2022 not so much
If they add Mika, then I'm all in!
Did anyone else get weirdly excited when Alexander Rybak stepped out on stage?
Me:) I used to have a crush on him
i screamed!!!
Always
The entire crowd did
@@crashvds777 Doesn't like everybody - including me - have a crush on him?
Petra and Mans were both amazing hosts
she sounds like a whole country, yes...
I like how Alexander has a cheeky smile when they say playing a violin gets you a win.
This is why i'm so happy this year's eurovision held in Sweden. These fellas can make a great show!
This will always be the best thing that the ESC has ever produced. It will never be not funny and witty and even sexy. That night, it was the best song. It's just bloody brilliant.
Agreed. Best interval act ever.
What is ESC and what it means too?
Annabell The Doll ESC means Eurovision Song Contest
@@davidnaylor83 I think Riverdance tops it. Defo best 21st century interval act, they're usually so boring nowadays🙄
It’s actually the Swede’s work. Not Eurovision.
Måns Zelmerlöw with an unbuttoned shirt gets my vote.
Open one get 300+ votes
Osixjoh You're thirsty
I agree
No matter what anyone says, Mans and Petra will always be the best ever Eurovision hosts for me. They were just incredible all through out the night. Honestly, the most rememberable Erovision contest.
My best hosts: Volodymyr Ostapchuk, Oleksandr Skichko and Timur Myroshnychenko (2017 contest in my homeland Ukraine)

Petra should host Eurovision forever and ever.
Please no. I don't like her. She seems so full of herself. And those "gay jokes" (satire or not) are so stereotypical and cliched. Many fans are NOT gay!
I love her enough to have hunted down the TV series "Bonus Family" she has been doing. Such a brilliant woman.. If I could just talk to her for 20 minute...
@@steinarmogen3166 She is fantastic on French
Forever till the end of time
Mans too
This should have actually won. It embodies everything I love about the Eurovision. This contest should never be classy with great singers singing in tune but rather a trainwreck of over the top performances one after the other.
+corine igonot It's because they have the recipe for the perfect Eurovision performance. ;-)
+corine igonot No thank you I'll take a credible, musically relevant contest as we have now anytime.
+jimsid1 are you being facetious?
bubblegumplastic Of course not. The musical level of the contest this year was excellent with great singers, good performances and very good songs overall and the focus should be on them. This interval act was funny but I saw it did more damage than good after all as it perpetuated some false stereotypes about the contest that should be left to die as they no longer exist anyway.
The vision the initial commenter has for the contest is falling apart thankfully, the contest is rapidly regaining credibility throughout Europe and many great artists are coming on the esc stage nowadays.
I hope the initial commenter (and you if you share that pitiful vision for the contest) to find a circus to satisfy your needs - cause the contest wont do it for you anymore sorry.
Oh and to the initial commenter : Thankfully you do not get to define what the contest will be about - the contest should be about worthy representatives of the musical scene of each country singing songs that will enter the european charts after the final - as it happens now.
As I said already, go to a circus to get what you want cause esc has thankfully stopped being that.
They didn't recommend singing a song about war... a few minutes after... Jamala won with 1944. lol
Yep. Shittiest song ever.
@@ratchetleague1285 That's because the song is beyond your understanding
@@Laumzhirgas mmm nope. Its because it got no beat and it's less catchy than the sounds coming out when I take a shit. I don't care if its political/meaningfull. Its just bad 🤷♂️
@@ratchetleague1285 it actually has a meaning
@@thedopest767 Wow. How deep and artistic.
Ssssstill bad.
Sweden needs to win again just so we can get måns and petra as hosts again, no one does it like them
Even better, just get Petra and Måns to host it every year regardless of who wins
Edward af Sillén should also be credited. He wrote the script and this song.
Måns and Petra randomly started waving italian flags
Cornelia might give you an amazing eurovision in 2023 😅
Mans, Petra and Conchita would be fantastic host
No one dares to sing about love and peace after this. Next year all songs will be about death, destruction and eternal darkness :)
hahahahahahahaha I wouldn't even wonder if it happens xD
So basically, another year of slow ballads? And maybe some similar to "Hard Rock Hallelujah?"

Still think these two should be allowed to present the Eurovision Contest Final every year. They did an amazing job....best year ever.

or at least another crazy show like Petra did with Graham Norton....
This is the best interval act in Eurovision. Nobody can tops that.
Nah, Riverdance does. Have you watched the video of it at Eurovision (which it was created for) on here? It brought the house down.
It's apples and oranges though.

@@xMelonx Yes.
@@xMelonx to be fair even these two sang that the interval was another chance to fail to live up to Riverdance
True winner!!
Liz Dragon ı agree
The comedy was by far the best it has ever been! Sweden should always host it
+Jos Schroons Sweden usually comes up with the best *WINNING* songs... I wouldn't be surprised if they won next year again in Kiev.... wouldn't mind tho. They seem to have the best shows all the time lel!
+Patrick Dooley Sweden holds six regional competitions, and one national to find our entry for Eurovision Song Contest. We take this competition far to serious in Sweden and winning is a result from that. But, can we afford to win in Kiev? Hosting is expensive, and winning the ESC 2015 was not the only expensive thing happening to Sweden that year.
You make a very good point, if it does occur, they could do what they did multiple times, let another country host. BBCs done it multiple times, i bet the wouldnt do it now though XD They could let new countries interested to host...... At least i know one country takes ESC seriously :)
Greetings from Asia!
+Jos Schroons It's pretty funny actually, we're the best host, we've won the competition the most in recent years, and Swedish song writers are involved in more than half the songs these days... I don't know if it means we're the best or that we're the only ones who care and we're making fools of ourselves. :D
Jo Schroons lol i tought your profile pic was something on my screen so i tried wiping it of several times ;-;

It was great.

@@jonaspaulsson9912 100% correct.
3:00 - 3:10 - The face Petra makes while Måns sings "pretending we're in love", is worth gold (deliberate overacting in order to make it very ridiculous.... Damn, she nailed it).
HAHAHAHHAHA I didn't realize it till now and omg LMAO 😺
Also check the dancers (02:44, 03:30) and Alexander (02:52)... everyone is just hamming up to 12 and having a great time of it.
"This can easily be fixed by adding a DJ who pretends to scratch. In _real life_ of course this is 30 years old, but in Eurovision it will give your number a contemporary feel." LOL! So funny! :D
I don't get that actually. What does that mean?
It means that adding a DJ, will make you song sound like it is from the 90's. However, Eurovision is considered to be behind the rest of the world music wise, so in Eurovision it will sound very modern.
That explains a lot to me. I'm kinda new to Eurovision.
I need Sweden to win again, best host country and best humour ever.
Tonight
Congratulations!🎉

Until next year if Sweden should win this week. Remember Lill Lindfors' iconic dress when Sweden hosted in the eighties? They will top this in 2024 if we would be so lucky.

This sums up Eurovision perfectly. Don’t take it to seriously, just enjoy the ludicrously over the top silliness, irony, and poke fun at it a little bit while still actually deep down really loving it.
I lose it every time I see Alexander just vibin' in the background, he just looks thrilled to be there!
ESC 2020 was just cancelled, but we can all watch this on repeat instead
That is what we do :)
Sweden can music and hosting
This was absolutely the best bit of the entire show 👌
No Eurovision presenters have ever been so iconic
Imagine being there live and seeing this thing get progressively more unhinged by the second.
I love how everyone cheers so hard when Alexander pops up with his violin.
How does Alexander not look older, after 6-7 years?!
It's the HORRIFIC haircut... makes him look perpetually like a little Norse Troll-man :P
Because he was a young adult when competing... 10 years is nothing at that age.
Because he is imortal

I am no Euro V fan at all, but these 2 are amazing presenters and I could watch them for hrs. They are better than any Euro show. I have met Mans and he was so cool and amazing live and i love his own music
