Forgot to add any intro, just wanted to make the video as fast as possible. Still wasn't fast enough at the end, the size is too big. As I promised, there's that kind of video from me. Not my idea originally but I've been doing it since 2022 at least in my own style, very long and trying not to miss anything interesting in the results announcements on every national final. I included not only the winners' reactions but also the results announcements, the way voting was going, how juries and televoters were giving points, which graphics was used. It's very interesting for me and I hope more people will find it interesting for themselves too. Also some interesting moments from winner's performances, if there were any.
@@escserg6731 I do find it interesting. Especially because I didn't know that anybody used proportional voting for like a Eurovision Song Selection. I do know what proportions are and know about Proportional Representation And Mixed Member Proportion. Now for those results of points is there any "Quota" (100% of votes and points) and how is it decided what the Quota is? Are there any similarities between the voting in National Finals and Electoral Proportional Voting System? I'd just like to know bc this got me very interested.
@@savilje2022 proportional vote in Eurovision national finals goes like this: you have some amount of juries giving some points. Let's just imagine there're like 10 juries giving usual Eurovision points, 12,10,8,7...1. The sum of them is 58, 10 juries giving it would be 580. Imagine we have 50/50 system which means the sum of televote points also should be 580. After that, we look at the percentages of televotes each contestants get and divide these 580 points according to them. Like, we have 100 percent overall, so 1 percent means 5.8 points then. Proportions, you know. If the system is not 50/50 but, for example, Finnish 25/75,that means we should divide that way 580*3=1740 points in televotes. This system consider how exactly people voted, not just in which order they placed contestants, and seems more fair. The only way it could be bad is when someone in the selection has a lot of support just for their name and not for the song, like Breskvica in the Serbian one. Then they get a lot of undeserved advantage. Serbian final wanted to use this system at first but fastly went back to the usual one with considering only the order of votes, to prevent her from winning
Baby Lasagna’s winning moment where he hugs fiancé and lyric video creator Elizabeth and then dances a bit on stage with his friends at the end will always be the most wholesome moment of the entire season for me! If he wins, he may give us another touching moment that tops it but for now it is the best!
A lot of people are extremely mean to a bunch of contestants who are mostly just small time independent artists trying to make it. I'm just happy to see how happy these winning contestants are, it's always my favorite part of the show.
@@phoebeolsen-newell392 would love other countries to adopt this because it gives everyone some breathing room during a ad break. Tho it may bring a lot of hilarious reactions from fans and people in the audience 😂😂🤣
19:31 One of my favorite good-sportsmanship moments of the NF season: even if only one of them was going to win the whole thing, it was nice to see them get to share a victory for a brief moment. (Not like Spain doesn't know that feeling...)
The margin between 1st and 2nd place at the Croatian national finals was just phenomenal. Baby Lasagna is my winner this year, 12 points from Australia ❤❤
Iceland: We don't know if we're going to be in Eurovision this year or not, really depends on how things develop. Also Iceland: *is represented by a jury in damn near every selection with an international jury*
@@escserg6731 No I mean that they were represented in selections all over Europe when they kept acting like there was no guarantee they’d be competing.
Some personal experiences from those NFs I watched via Discord and streams: - Albania: If it wasn't for the aclaration the festival winner was not the Eurovision representant, I would have thought Mal was the Albanian singer, not Besa 🥲😂 (also EAEA) - Czechia (not displayed in the video, because the winner was some days apart I guess): The NF production was at least more dynamic unlike the 2023 version - Ireland: One, I almost fainted with the International jury votes. And second, THANK YOU IRISH PUBLIC AND JURIES, you saved it. (hope the live is not as confusing in Malmö like in the RTE studios) - Luxembourg: Loved the winner guests and the homage to Luxembourg's ESC victories. The winner song, I won't say anything. - Norway: Mileo (NQ) and Gothminister completely robbed. The Queen of Kings intro was AMAZING. Gate TOTALLY DESERVED TO WIN! (what was with the lyric change order from NRK? ._.) - Spain: My winners were Almacor, St Pedro, Jorge (I don't know why people were hating him) and Angy; and I'm glad they got good placements at least. Zorra was not on my winner list and I still love the song and I hope they get good points in Malmö (also Blanca Paloma deserved better). - Malta: My winner alerts were Yulan Law's "Stronger" (JESC guest interval) and The Busker's medley. Nah, jokes apart, I'm fine with the winner, I was not a fan of this year's edition - Ukraine: Almost all of the songs were my favorites, with J&A and Melovin being both my winners. The Kvitka JESC interval was my favorite, the Verka interval was funny (I found out they were in the jury days later XD), TVORCHI's orchestral entry should be in a movie ASAP, and the entire NF was good...until the server votes lag happened...Teresa and Maria are my Top 3 in ESC! - Finland: It was nice to see Kaarija again (he deserved to win ESC 2023 as much as Loreen) ❤. Saara Sipolla's entry and live was my winner, but I'm happy for Windows95Man and his song. I hope he makes a good live in Sweden! - Latvia: Like Malta, I was not interested in it and I'm fine with the winner. - Italy: My first complete watch of Sanremo (I was used to watch only the final night or some things like Blanco's incident with the roses). Mahmood was robbed, but Angelina Mango is a great singer! (also I can't believe Travolta was there) - Germany: With saying Ohne Worte (JESC 2023) and Blood and Glitter (ESC 2023 interval, and unfair last placers) were, for me, songs MILES better than the entire selection of this year, I say it. If they get last place again, it will be no surprise - Moldova: Like Malta and Latvia, not my favorite NF this year, but Natalia Barbu's song in live was very good. - Estonia: The rock version of Bridges and the Eesti Laul Dorime were LIT. Ollie again robbed, but if that was the live of 5MIINUST x Puuluup in Eesti Laul (it was great), they can be one of the real winner or Top 10 contenders in ESC 2024! - Denmark: I wonder why Reiley was not there even for an interval, but Saba's song was by far the BEST of the entire selection! I hope she makes it to the Top 10 in Malmö! - Lithuania: It was good to see The Roop back after 2021, but Silvester Belt really made it a competition! (their piano medley was the longest interval act I've ever seen) - San Marino: Both Loredana and Megara were my favorites (for a small stage like RTV, they at least made it good), and I WAS HAPPY Megara made it as a winner and FINALLY into Eurovision! As my winners of Benidorm Fest 2023, it was a dream come true! They finally have the chance, and I can hope they don't NQ San Marino this year! - Croatia: I still can't believe that if someone of the main Dora 2024 contestants didn't quit we would have missed Baby Lasagna and had only Let 3 as televote winners (I still prefer Mama SC than Babaroga). Gasoline was better live than studio (my other winner if Baby Lasagna hadn't won for some reason), but THANK YOU Croatia for one of the best winner alerts in ESC 2024! - Iceland: Dilja's Power interval was my favorite part of the night (unfairly NQ with Iru from Georgia). Either Bashar or Hera won, I would be happy with them and their songs, knowing their participation was in danger knowing the current situation (EBU really screwed it) and RUV's position. - Serbia: Luke Black's intro interval was by far my favorite interval of PZE 2024 (another of the 2023 songs that deserved better), and I loved the other 2 songs he presented in the Semi 2; and when he gave Teya Dora the trophy 🥺. I was happy with Konstrakta returning, too! - Sweden: I'm surprised and glad they didn't resort, of all countries and as ESC hosts, to the obligatory ABBA/Waterloo interval (not as a Sweden winner homage, but as a discography-anniversary interval) most NF's decided to come with (I know it's ABBA's anniversary and they are Swedish, but Loreen was the one who won 2023 for Sweden, not them! At least MGP acknowleged the other Swedish winner songs). I hope Loreen's short participation in the Mello final is because they are reserving her great interval for the proper ESC in May (she deserves it). Dotter, my winner, completely robbed, and I hoped Medina would have won with EURO 2024 on the way. Knowing Sweden opens the Grand Final (not a joke, EBU announced it with some other changes for this ESC), I just hope Marcus and Martinus make the best. - Portugal: I didn't know it was the anniversary of the Festival (or that it started in early ESC years like Mello) Every song here was good, and I loved Mimicat's orchestral interval (like Luke, robbed in ESC 2023). Grito was by far the winner of the edition, and I can see it getting good jury support in Eurovision!
@@escserg6731 i mean if he has a LOT of haters and even MORE lovers, that's way better than whatever little support other forgetful contestants had....
Made my heart happy seeing Jimmy Martin of Modern Times presenting Tali with her award - figuratively and literally passing the torch (or soon-to-be-broken-but-mostly-symbolic-anyway trophy), thirty-plus years later, after many years of it looking like he and his bandmates would be the final act to ever represent Luxembourg at Eurovision. She wasn't even alive yet, and now she's representing them! I hope she qualifies, I'm def voting for her.
I do kinda wonder about the logic in letting other countries contribute points in your national contests, especially when they're also competing in Eurovision. Like what stops them from voting for what they consider "worst" so they have less of a tough market?
One of my favorite things about festival da Canção (Portugal) is that when they are singing the winning song every participant comes to the stage as well to be there and support 🥹. Its really beautiful that you can see everyone singing Iolandas high note at the end with her
It's just one of the hosts constantly remembering the chorus of the Norwegian Eurovision entry from 2005 (WIgWam - In My Dreams) and asking the crowd to sing along
Proportional is when the televote points correspond to the percentages of votes every song got. Regular one is just based on the order of the televote results, no matter how many votes each song got exactly.
@@escserg6731 I know what are proportions. Not to be boring but every one of these votes have a 100% (maximal score, limit). Do all the selections have the same number of total points which is proportional to a 100%? I know in 2022 Croatia's total number of points was 580 which divided by ten is 58 (combination of all points that are given in ESC for example 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+10+12 = 58). There must be subdivisions of televoting that each award 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,10,12 points and when all are added up the total (100%) is 580. My last question here would be does anybody know what are these "televote subdivisions"? It could be anything like Croatian SMS, International Online Voting, Croatian Online Voting or even that 10 regional Public votes are combined and from each of those regions and 1,2,3,4...,8,10,12 points to the 10 most voted songs in the region. Correct me if I'm wrong and sorry if I annoy you in any way
@@TheManInBlueFlames "krick and sara had messy performances" and tali and w95m didn't???..... lol the worst thing that happens when a favorite doesn't win is the ridiculous reasons random internet trolls come up with to justify it

My lovely Ukraine you missing a lot of fun bcz war however you are doing amazing job. You are still the best. Love you Ukraine from Canada. 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🙏🙏🙏💙💙💙
Per me sarebbe più logico non avere le giurie internazionali, ma fare votare le giurie interne! Almeno ogni paese sceglie la canzone che più li rappresenta !
Out of the many favorites I had, only Baby Lasagna managed to win (I had two favorites in Finland, coming in at 2nd and 4th place. My favorite in Norway came in 4th under two overhyped songs). I definitely am going to vote for Croatia
@@escserg6731 most of them. Any that don't do 100% televote, 60/40 or 50/50, and those that 'convert' their (usually jury) points to the esc system before adding the televotes, since they are just making their voting system worse for No reason. Plus some others
FiK uses only jury voting to determine the winner of the festival itself and only televote to choose the Eurovision representative. So yeah, jury and televote winners were different
Никогда бы не подумал что это скажу, но в этом году выделяется кто угодно, но не куча гей исполнителей, от которых порядком уже подташнивает.

Thank you Isaak for representing straight guys in the Eurovision world! I found a reason to root for Germany now. Before you call me a homophobe, I have nothing against gays dominating Eurovision, I just find it hard to relate to a Eurovision singer when there are so few straight male ones, especially this year. Also: Teya Dora & Luke Black look like evil siblings together lol.
It's not a secret that Eurovision is a very positive thing in general, the community around it tries to be welcoming, not prejudiced as it's possible. So, it always attracted lgbt community. Plus, lgbt artists are usually more creative, so they're more likely to be chosen. That's the reason why it seems like there're too many of them. Actually, there're definitely some straight men except Germany. Baby Lasagna as I can understand, Slimane, man from Nebulossa, someone from Estonia, Azerbaijan and Finland I guess.
@escserg6731 LGBT artists are more creative? That is an interesting take. Perhaps the sexual freedom translates to artistic freedom? Who knows? Yes, it was nice to see that Nebulossa are a real couple. By the way, Mark Dasousa looks like Gordon Ramsay's twin lol. Also I think Marcus & Martinus were joined by their parents? Cool to see some songwriters supporting their singers too (Melanie Wehbe, Elsie Bay etc.).
That's a bit of an exaggeration. We know Eurovision is LGBT-friendly but, given the lineup, you can *not* say the "gays are dominating Eurovision". I counted 5/6 LGBT artists this year, therefore the remaining are straight ones. Not only there is Germany, you have Azerbaijan, Croatia, France, Finland, Latvia, The Netherlands, Sweden, all of the guys from Estonia, the guy from Armenia, etc. Only if you count female pop entries as explicitly for the "queer-public" you could say that and, even then, most people enjoy female-pop, not just the gays. Spain's performance also caters to such demographic, but I'd say that's the only one. Ig, what you wanted to say is that there is more LGBT-representation in Eurovision than in most other programmes. If so, yes you'd be correct.
@@miguelc6740 Fair enough. It would be more accurate to say that gay men are dominating the *Eurovision fandom* (even though I have found many straight male fans like me here on RUclips), so the gay element is always present in the Eurovision show (e.g. interval acts).
@@dimidrugg9592 Oh yeah then yes, absolutely. Last year, I remember cringing so hard with the drag queen's interval act. As you've said, it does almost exclude the majority of casual viewers. And the fandom is essentially exclusively gay man (I am not, but nonetheless) so I understand why the producers cater mainly to the gays. I just intervened because most entries themselves don't. There is a growing trend tho.
Oh you forgot Israel’s, as they DID have a NF for the artist (Haba). I mean, I think you included Georgia last year on 2023’s list, and that was an Artist selection too
@@chadman9355 I also didn't include Israel in 2022 when they had a proper national final selecting both artist and song. Not because of politics or something but because I couldn't find it at all, their website is all in Hebrew, I don't know how the hell was I supposed to search something there.
Maybe because they didn't steal natural resources and money and colonied other countries for hunderds of years, maybe because they don't keep other's money in bank due to taxation manipulation or maybe because they have no oil fields they can toxify the world with fossil oil for getting rich.

Ukraine's result announcement gave school lecture, lol. 😅
I mean, it was a delayed results announcement, there was no excitement since it was like 2 days passed since they recorded the performances.
Made my heart happy seeing Jimmy Martin of Modern Times presenting Tali with her award - figuratively and literally passing the torch (or soon-to-be-broken-but-mostly-symbolic-anyway trophy), thirty-plus years later, after many years of it looking like he and his bandmates would be the final act to ever represent Luxembourg at Eurovision. She wasn't even alive yet, and now she's representing them! I hope she qualifies, I'm def voting for her.
Amazing!
01:06:50 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yeah, a moment not too many people noticed
Why the hell did nobody tell me about this video?
This channel deserves one sub from me
Thanks a lot!
Crazy voting in Finland😂
I mostly love Marcus & Martinus ❤️❤️ and Baby Lasagna ❤
I do kinda wonder about the logic in letting other countries contribute points in your national contests, especially when they're also competing in Eurovision. Like what stops them from voting for what they consider "worst" so they have less of a tough market?
There's a very low probability that the majority of these countries decide to vote strategically at the same time. 1-3 countries at max
One of my favorite things about festival da Canção (Portugal) is that when they are singing the winning song every participant comes to the stage as well to be there and support 🥹. Its really beautiful that you can see everyone singing Iolandas high note at the end with her
Yeah. Thankfully, not only Festival da Cancao does that
@@escserg6731 yes I'm not saying otherwise!! I'm just saying it's really beautiful
Hey, the Albanian presenter isn't dancer Kledi Kadiu? He's very known here in Italy!
bambie reaction was so cute !!
i loved all of the ractions tho

That is the name of the song? 17:55
It's just one of the hosts constantly remembering the chorus of the Norwegian Eurovision entry from 2005 (WIgWam - In My Dreams) and asking the crowd to sing along
@@escserg6731 Thank you!
The Estonian guys are so cute haha
The best winner reaction so far is Marcus & Martinus❤
why you don’t show luna? her reaction is also on internet
❤️❤️❤️❤️👑👑fogedbl
Ik it's too random to ask thia now, but what is the difference between "proportional televoting" and the regular one?
Proportional is when the televote points correspond to the percentages of votes every song got. Regular one is just based on the order of the televote results, no matter how many votes each song got exactly.
@@escserg6731 I know what are proportions. Not to be boring but every one of these votes have a 100% (maximal score, limit). Do all the selections have the same number of total points which is proportional to a 100%? I know in 2022 Croatia's total number of points was 580 which divided by ten is 58 (combination of all points that are given in ESC for example 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+10+12 = 58). There must be subdivisions of televoting that each award 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,10,12 points and when all are added up the total (100%) is 580. My last question here would be does anybody know what are these "televote subdivisions"? It could be anything like Croatian SMS, International Online Voting, Croatian Online Voting or even that 10 regional Public votes are combined and from each of those regions and 1,2,3,4...,8,10,12 points to the 10 most voted songs in the region. Correct me if I'm wrong and sorry if I annoy you in any way

Bambies makes me cry man
Ziferblat coming in second place did hurt me a lot.💔
Because they didn't win? Or it's too high?
@@escserg6731 He was my winner :(
@@escserg6731 They are my winners
Luxembourg and Finland really broke my heart, Krick and Sara were my favs
Krick and Sara had messy performances. The right winners won there in my view.
My faves for Finland were Sara and Cyan Kicks :(
@@TheManInBlueFlames "krick and sara had messy performances" and tali and w95m didn't???..... lol the worst thing that happens when a favorite doesn't win is the ridiculous reasons random internet trolls come up with to justify it
@@TheManInBlueFlames Maybe Luxembourg's song is ok but what do you see good in Finland😭 all the performances were messy not just Sara's
Imagine if Norway didn’t catch the trophy when they performed their winning song
twins from sweden - fonogramm ?
More like loud backing track
That's massively incorrect and false, And a lawsuit waiting to happen... The twins are in fact singing LIVE since I have known them my whole childhood..... and they have performed since they were kids.... @@escserg6731
My lovely Ukraine you missing a lot of fun bcz war however you are doing amazing job. You are still the best. Love you Ukraine from Canada. 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🙏🙏🙏💙💙💙

Per me sarebbe più logico non avere le giurie internazionali, ma fare votare le giurie interne! Almeno ogni paese sceglie la canzone che più li rappresenta !

The person booing doomsday blue is my spirit animal
You mean, booing in a good way?
they were booing cause they only gave them 8 points and 12 to a boyband lol. the audience in the studio loved bambie
Out of the many favorites I had, only Baby Lasagna managed to win (I had two favorites in Finland, coming in at 2nd and 4th place. My favorite in Norway came in 4th under two overhyped songs). I definitely am going to vote for Croatia
Well, that's very strict criteria you have
@@escserg6731Fortunately it's only their criteria and not the official ones 😅
1 thing that seems almost constant in the national finals is terrible voting systems
Which one do you dislike exactly?
@@escserg6731 most of them.
Any that don't do 100% televote, 60/40 or 50/50, and those that 'convert' their (usually jury) points to the esc system before adding the televotes, since they are just making their voting system worse for No reason. Plus some others
@@Gfynbcyiokbg8710 Yeah, there're like 5-6 finals that do the converting, others do something different
@@escserg6731 Yeah and usually that different thing is also terrible
@@Gfynbcyiokbg8710 So, you like the converting systems or what?
This made me realise that I've never watched the Finnish results.
So Besa didn't won FiK?
FiK uses only jury voting to determine the winner of the festival itself and only televote to choose the Eurovision representative. So yeah, jury and televote winners were different
Did i saw La zarra or it's my idea😭😭
Baby Lasagna. DOWN ON EARTH❤
what about israel?
It was just an artist selection. And I can't find it
Никогда бы не подумал что это скажу, но в этом году выделяется кто угодно, но не куча гей исполнителей, от которых порядком уже подташнивает. Эра Бьорк - удачи, единственный профессионал, который вокалом утрёт нос и покажет уровень, класс, надоело уже это душное гей комьюнити, которое себя нарочито пихает. В этом году стран 10 точно найдётся, где мужик одевается в бабу - ВАУ вы точно первые кто так оделся)), до вас никто так не делал)))) как им самим не надоело делать одно и тоже ? Пришло время , когда уже ОНИ стали серыми мышками настолько, что я обращаю внимание на кого угодно, только не на них. Время фриков заканчивается, эта чушь долго не будет тянуться, всё равно всё вернётся на свои круги.
(нет во мне не говорит обиженный Россиянин, просто я люблю баланс, но когда "не таких как все" становится СЛИШКОМ много - это уже не так интересно, и превращается в попсу.
Кроме Эры из Исландии, Братьев из Швеции, Луктелк из Литвы, и Готки из Ирландии - никого более не заметил что называется "в упор"
М-да, предвзятненько
У нас "мужиков" то не так уж много в этом году, чтоб найти аж 10 "переодевающихся в бабу"

Thank you Isaak for representing straight guys in the Eurovision world! I found a reason to root for Germany now.
Before you call me a homophobe, I have nothing against gays dominating Eurovision, I just find it hard to relate to a Eurovision singer when there are so few straight male ones, especially this year.
Also: Teya Dora & Luke Black look like evil siblings together lol.
It's not a secret that Eurovision is a very positive thing in general, the community around it tries to be welcoming, not prejudiced as it's possible. So, it always attracted lgbt community. Plus, lgbt artists are usually more creative, so they're more likely to be chosen. That's the reason why it seems like there're too many of them. Actually, there're definitely some straight men except Germany. Baby Lasagna as I can understand, Slimane, man from Nebulossa, someone from Estonia, Azerbaijan and Finland I guess.
@escserg6731 LGBT artists are more creative? That is an interesting take. Perhaps the sexual freedom translates to artistic freedom? Who knows?
Yes, it was nice to see that Nebulossa are a real couple. By the way, Mark Dasousa looks like Gordon Ramsay's twin lol. Also I think Marcus & Martinus were joined by their parents? Cool to see some songwriters supporting their singers too (Melanie Wehbe, Elsie Bay etc.).
That's a bit of an exaggeration. We know Eurovision is LGBT-friendly but, given the lineup, you can *not* say the "gays are dominating Eurovision". I counted 5/6 LGBT artists this year, therefore the remaining are straight ones. Not only there is Germany, you have Azerbaijan, Croatia, France, Finland, Latvia, The Netherlands, Sweden, all of the guys from Estonia, the guy from Armenia, etc. Only if you count female pop entries as explicitly for the "queer-public" you could say that and, even then, most people enjoy female-pop, not just the gays. Spain's performance also caters to such demographic, but I'd say that's the only one.
Ig, what you wanted to say is that there is more LGBT-representation in Eurovision than in most other programmes. If so, yes you'd be correct.
@@miguelc6740 Fair enough. It would be more accurate to say that gay men are dominating the *Eurovision fandom* (even though I have found many straight male fans like me here on RUclips), so the gay element is always present in the Eurovision show (e.g. interval acts).
@@dimidrugg9592 Oh yeah then yes, absolutely. Last year, I remember cringing so hard with the drag queen's interval act. As you've said, it does almost exclude the majority of casual viewers. And the fandom is essentially exclusively gay man (I am not, but nonetheless) so I understand why the producers cater mainly to the gays. I just intervened because most entries themselves don't. There is a growing trend tho.
vata fakk😅
Oh you forgot Israel’s, as they DID have a NF for the artist (Haba). I mean, I think you included Georgia last year on 2023’s list, and that was an Artist selection too
I didn't include Georgia last year, actually
@@escserg6731 oh my bad. I musta misremembered lmao
@@chadman9355 I also didn't include Israel in 2022 when they had a proper national final selecting both artist and song. Not because of politics or something but because I couldn't find it at all, their website is all in Hebrew, I don't know how the hell was I supposed to search something there.
Next Star Israel is more like a talent show, not really a national final. 2013, 2021 and 2022 winners didn’t go to ESC.
Slava ukraini djakuju ukraini 😭 🇺🇦 ❤
God these eastern countries have such messy, low budget national finals.
Firstly, just having low budget is not automatically a bad thing. Secondly, countries like Ukraine, Serbia had low budget national finals, really?
Maybe because they didn't steal natural resources and money and colonied other countries for hunderds of years, maybe because they don't keep other's money in bank due to taxation manipulation or maybe because they have no oil fields they can toxify the world with fossil oil for getting rich.
What😭 Estonia, Lithuania, Ukraine, Serbia had amazing nf's

What reaction do you mean actually? That micro shock at the moment they called her name or everything after that?
You're wrong, you've been just influenced

@@NguvuMX by the people who say she won because his father and stuff like that. Although how do you know she’s faking? Other winners in the video are way more predictable than her.
Or maybe you are meaning she was not honestly excited for having such an honour of winning Sanremo?!
@@giovannimoriggi5833 I didn't even know what you're saying so it didn't influence me, I just saw someone trying hard to look "excited" and "incredulous"
Where Israel?
That was only the artist selection. And the clips from Israeli shows are really hard to find, I didn't manage to find it in 2022, for example.
who feels sorry for Ollie?
