“All Hail The Jegg” was followed by an ad for jeans. Excellent product placement.
Xi JinPing arriving in Belgrade and then the contest being interrupted because of this is just too funny to me 😂
It was annoying for me. Like I don't give 2 damns about the president of China coming over to Serbia. I just wanted to hear the Serbian commentary while watching the show. ;-;
@@Fire_OnyxI understand that it must've been annoying to say the least. I probably would be annoyed too if it happened here in Greece. Not to mention that interrupting the contest is considered "forbidden" in ebu rules.
That's why I'm watching it on RUclips. And because of my home country's commentator...
@@in_wino_veritas Yeah, and when that happened, I decided to just watch the whole thing on RUclips also, because I didn’t wanna take anymore chances of 💩 like that happening again.
The fact that this video is 45 minutes long AND IT'S PART ONE OUT OF THREE really shows how insane this Eurovision year was
I think the point of nendest narkotikuumidest ei tea me küll midagi being on the iceberg was the fact that it's the longest song title at esc to date
Måns wasnt physically at eurovision this year but he still made an appearance, in "we just love eurovision too much" he pops up on the screen when the lyrics "when you google Sweden, this is what you'll see"
But he *did* appear as a Swedish commenter for one of the semis, if I remember correctly.....So that's something...
So many Polish eurofans had an absolute meltdown following Luna's selection. The fact that she's the daughter of a preserve magnate ("nepo baby" was the word of the month haha), affectionately called "ketchup princess" certainly didn't help her image. We need a national selection reform asap
her other music is WAY better than the tower too which adds salt to the wound
Yes, they're really hostile, if their favorite doesn't win, especially if a female artist goes to Eurovision instead.
@@in_wino_veritas The absolute favourite was another female artist 😂
I can only guess that 'jury' had some issues with Steczkowska, who 'collaborate' with then the ruling party, including TVP. On the other hand maybe Luna had connections both with big business and TVP :D
@@SzyszkaM Blanca had connections, so it's not hard to believe that Luna's connections helped her as well. I stopped supporting Poland which is my country, I hope they finish last every year. Please stop voting for 'artists' who did not deserve to be there. TVP = sewage
the estonian part having nothing to do with the song being the longest esc title in history and just you raving about the guys is so real. you're like a broken record but i totally get it
actually it's moldova's 4th year in a row to send a returning artist, you forgot natalie gordienko with the best ESC song "Sugar" :D
Technically 5th if u include Prison
EUROPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE WOoOOOoohhhhh
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
From watching both you guys' content, it's so surreal having Maqwell just take over the video for a bit. I'd never have seen this collab coming but I'm so happy it exists.
Not Maqwell reading a prompt 😭😭😭😭😭
tbf he was busy making videos for his own channel and he's not primarily a eurovision-centered channel anyway
As always Gabe - perhaps the most insightful ESC commentary ever of any channel on RUclips. I applaud you, thank you for your content. I'm an old man from the UK, watched my first ever ESC in 1970 and not missed one since. During the down season it would be wonderful to watch someone as insightful as you go back over the decades. The socio-political impact of this contest has kind of shaped my concept of Europionism and European history from my childhood, back in the 70s, to the present day. I went on to travel and learn languages but, as a kid, this was my introduction to the multi-cultural world we live in nowadays
8:29 missed opportunity to call it 5/11
Not my two worlds of Eurovision and football colliding 😭 this really is a bi man's dream
Bi woman here and same
Some of us Straights are excited too!
Gay men can like football too.
real
same. huge for me
As a Luxembourgish Esperantist I never thought I'd see both of those things in the same iceberg but oh well
“All hail the Jegg” we all say in union
Not Tattoo by Akina Nakamori making the most random cameo 😂😂
Unfortunately Stipe, Baby Lasagna's cat, apparently passed away a few weeks back. RIP Stipe.
😭
Adds a whole new layer of sadness to "Meow cat, please meow back"
I'll still not over how much of a Chad Gabe probably unintentionally became for 5miinust and Puuluup to invite him for their album release on their first interview together.
I hope you take that as a personal win, Gabe. You deserve that.
Natalia Gordienko was also a returning artist so it's 4 years for Moldovan returning artists!
how could he forget the masterpiece that is loca
43:02 ok, i wasn't expecting to see Nascar being mentioned on an Eurovision video (as a Nascar and Eurovision fan, i loved it)
I subscribed after your Eurovision 2024 disaster video popped up in my recommendations. Always been a casual Eurovision enjoyer but I'm really enjoying your deep dives into the contest.
I watched all of the AI Super Rob song and have to agree it's terrible. It sounds like a bad take on Aqua, who I loved, attempting a comeback by latching on to something that's in the zeitgeist.
FYI: The cat's name is pronounced "Steep-eh".
Also, RIP Stipe 😢
Oh, no!! 😿
bah! 😿😭
Still, AvroTros didn't made it's mind up yet for next year. The Dutch public is still mad about this year, so the bias in NL is still a no for next year. To be continued...
avrotros still gotta be disppointed as well, very curious to see if they'll make a (deepdive) statement after they've made a decision on what they're doing next
@@AnjaStories They've decided to go, though I wonder what artist would still be willing to go
Mwuah as a Dutchie I think there's definitely two teams in the Netherlands. One part is still mad about what the EBU did, but the other half is eager to have NL back in the ESC but they are still hurt. Now we know NL is coming back to ESC I wonder who they are going to send.
You have noooooooooo idea how pissed off I was at Kaleen's We Will Rave being robbed of her dance break. The even tried to cover this in the video for the grand final performance by using her semi final footage and copy and pasted on top of the error, but you can still see the camera dying in the live stream.
THIS VIDEO WAS MADE FOR ME SPECIFICALLY
Actually it's the fourth year in a row Moldova sends a returning artist. Natalia Gordieko who represented them in 2021 also represented them in 2006
Germany does have national Broadcasters: ARD and ZDF. ARD is basically a cooperation between the regional broadcasters basically, but ZDF isn‘t.
Actually the Marco x Mahmood thing goes even deeper. Fans speculated for a year now that they're actually ex-lovers. There's a clip at Sanremo where they completely ignore each other, they don't follow each other on social media despite having the same friends and collab partners in the industry, and I think Mahmood wrote a song for Marco (I think it's Hola? Though I can't confirm this right now).
Though I must say that neither of them made their sexuality public, so any speculation feels just wrong to me.
This is just what I read in Italian magazines.
My body is ready for this iceberg!
Oh god, that song by Grosstadtgeflüster is an earworm :o
21:01 for Bashar’s sake it’s probably for the best he didn’t attend.
for everyone who doesn'tknow Maqwell, listen: I don't really follow football beyond watching the Euros/world cup, but I watch his qualifier/tournament recaps religiously because he is hi.la.ri.ous
Havimg an icepick and crampons ready, it will be a long trip on the Antartica ⛸
ESC 2024 dosent require a iceberg video. Its needs a whole northpole video
28:39 Glad to see our Irish drinking culture secured the best quote of the contest 😂🎉
AAAA. I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!!
20:24 As an Icelander I'm so glad that they're not doing the superfinal anymore. It was just a weird system and often resulted in us chosing the wrong song like in 2015 and 2022. I was never a huge fan of Bashars song and voted for Hera in the superfinal but I liked Væb and Sigga Ózk the most
xi jinping interruption has to be the most infuriating thing i've witnessed on tv
For me the funny thing about Lynda Woodruff’s song is that a full version of it was released and could be streamed on Spotify
28:16 "The only reason Baby Lasagna came in as a replacement is because he appeared first on the list of reserves alphabetically."
I DID NOT KNOW THAT 💀💀💀
Note to self: if I ever apply for Eurovision, choose an artist name that starts with A.
ALL HAIL THE JEGG 🙏🙏
ALL HAIL THE JEGG 🙏🙏
ALL HAIL THE JEGG 🙏🙏
ALL HAIL THE JEGG 🙏🙏
Omg this is the best colab ever
Since the public vote has the "Global vote" from non-participating countries, there's no longer a true 50/50 split between the jury and the public vote.
Friends Arena is now called Strawberry Arena.
Globen is called Avicii Arena since a few years.
Tele2 arena will soon be 3Arena.
"L'amore in bocca" went higher in the iceberg than I thought it had.
Globen is now called Avicii Arena and Friends Arena is called Strawberry Arena. Just to avoid confusion 😊
3 parts is INSANE 💀
One thing about Serce Europy... was that all performed did covers of old songs... except Domunik Dudek from Poland, who performed his new song.
i hope you know i misheard the first line as “gay pookie” and not “gabe pookie” and it made me chuckle a little too much
didnt expect NASCAR mention in Eurovision-related video, not gonna lie
10:40 i was at the live final(11th) it was still chaos 3 hours before the show started I'd say even 15min before the show started. the fact the EBU was so unclear untill like 5 hours before the show didnt help at all, someone people thought it was a joke or fake, like the EBU did so to make public stunt(which it sadly wasnt), i was next to someone upstairs from the trainstation Malmo Hyllie and we got 3 interview crews in 15min. we were both dressed with dutch colours(since we are both dutch). but the mania and hecticity of it was insane
also due to the fact everyone knew the crap israel gotaway with
and we will keep on carrying the longest nq streak woohoo
6:52 could have not summed it up any better, you two are legends
YAY the iceberg! I go in like a happy Titanic!
Fun fact! A couple of weeks ago a chilean band launched a spanish cover of Tattoo in cumbia style and it's actually a banger
If you don't like My AI by Erika Norwich, don't feel bad, she doesn't like it either because she claims it doesn't fit her voice and general style.
Two Maqwell videos on a Friday? Man, I hope nothing goes wr-
Now that's a surprise. Very welcome one for sure
as a premiere Polish Eurovision entries hater and a Polish native - NEVER TRUST TVP!
TVP is an international embarrassment, we feel ashamed on their behalf because they never will.. This competition could be so cool if people weren't such money hungry parasites.
RIP artistic integrity 🪦
Here are the new rules in finalkvalet in Mello 2025:
ven the layout of the final qualification itself looks different in 2025. The entry that receives the most votes in total, when the number of votes in the sub-competitions plus the number of votes in the final qualification is counted, goes on to the final. This means that the entries that receive many votes in their sub-competition and go to the qualifiers have an advantage. Also, only one song qualify for slutkvalet, one of the non-finalists with the most votes.
Gabe we like my Ai because it's a criticism of the soullessness of the music ai makes
17:42 Correction: The fourth (or fifth depending on if you count 2020) time actually. Natalia Gordienko represented Moldova in 2006 (along with some others) with the song 'Loca'
Maqwell? Omgggg my worlds colliding like this feels like a weird dream
Wasn’t Natalia Gordienko a returning artist as well? That would make it Moldova’s 4th returning artist in a row
Fun fact: the International Academy of Sciences (AIS) San Marino's working language is Esperanto.
Maqwell and ESC Gabe on one video wasn't even on my wettest RUclips dreams, I'm the happiest man.
Just out here to say My AI is a bop ❤️😂
The crossover i needed
17:42 you’re actually wrong right there because the representative of Moldova for 2020 and 2021 were one of the people representing Moldova back in 2006
💯 agree about My Super Hero Rob.
Breaking News: Charlotte FC fan reads a prompter and still crushes it
Looooooooooove the best crossover of the season 🤌🏻
We have Maqwell talking about Eurovision iceberg before GTA VI
26:54 «I suspect, a decent proportion of my audience, is probably familiar with this»
Why u gotta call me out like this, man 😭
Maqwell collabing with Gabe is what I like to see
If my understanding is correct the Israeli delegation might actually have done something illegal in Sweden specifically if the published the things online. I don't really know the details but it might go against GDPR. It's probably a hard case to sell but it's just the double standard from the EDU that is so frustrating.
That beginning though....🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣
This was really the Eurovision Shitshow Contest
2 maqwell videos on the same day wow
Next step: The Estonians can buy you some designer clothes???
holy shit, jegg was awesome
GOD, I WAS IN THE MALMO ARENA WHEN EUROVISION 9/11 HAPPEND, AND MY BIRTHDAY IS 9/11 😮
You should have known not to trust Poland when it comes to Eurovision... unless they work for another country (like Switzerland).
I hope Poland will send someone like Franek Warzywa next time.
Gabe, your polish is freakin' great!
My two worlds colliding
MAQWELL AND ESC GABE??? MY LIFE IS COMPLETE!!!!
I have one question for you: Why is your German pronunciation so good...?
He mentioned once that he lived in Germany for a while
@@diekommentarekommentiererin Okay, this explains a lot...
MAQWELL AKINA NAKAMORI MENTIONED AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Not much news from Greece and Cyprus in the iceberg. Makes sense. Too warm waters for an iceberg to survive.
Nemo would be sad if they werent on the iceberg
Indeed, but Nemo is "they"
@@justmeeeeeee... sorry
they're present in the lower end of the iceberg, so stay tuned
@@Windsekt1177GD No problem, thank you for correcting it 😊
This really had nothing to do with the video but I really want Canada to join Eurovision. Maybe it’s because I’m Canadian myself but it would make just as much sense as Australia competing. But I think we would actually do really well!
Be prepared for disappointment. I know a lot of people who don't vote for 1) the five countries that pay to automatically qualify; and 2) countries that aren't geographically in Europe.
I would love to see that! We have had several Canadians who have performed in the contest representing other countries (including one confirmed winner with Celine Dion) and have several ties to The UK/Europe.
@@Jeroen1983if they send a good song, they will receive points. You cannot boycott a really good song, no matter who sings it or which country they represent. Australia sent a few good entries and received votes both from the juries and public.
@@imagiraffe2848 As it turns out, you can.
Wasn‘t Moldova 2021 also a returning artist?
Gabe pookie finally done it 🌞
Saying Luna was witchy is like saying Dawtona ketchup is good, it's only true if you're insane
8:16 AMERICAN EUROVISION FAN TOO OMG
Too bad the days of "Pull up your big boy pants" are gone!
FINALLY
Gabes looks really deranged in this picture接着下😊
7:00 isn’t he a football RUclipsr I watch him
Eurovision 2002, I'm so sorry for calling you the worst contest ever
Why was it bad again?
lmao großstadtgeflüster certainly didn't hold back in their comment
What I got from this video is Justice for Joost, and Don is Eggcellent.
X in Maltese makes a sh sound. So, it's just show.
