Are you fucking kidding me???? No mention of Riverdance a show that has made billions of dollars. That has visited over 450 venues worldwide and been seen by over 25 million people, making it one of the most successful dance productions of all time. Ya of course 6 dancing grannies is better than that. Watchmojo you need to get your shit together.
*me someone who is not European but loves metal* Me: why the fuck wouldn’t they choose those guys. They have amazing on stage presence, they have incredible Special FX makeup, they sound amazing. I am not surprised at all.
They shouldn't be surprised about anything that is sent to the contest. There was one year where Finland sent a band full of retarded men with a song that just barely met the minimum time requirement.
Finland don't give a damn anymore, who ever we send there with amazing song they won't get qualified because only other northern countries vote for Finland.
I can't believe some people never heard of Eurovision before that Netflix movie (which I haven't watched). Eurovision only brought us some of the world's biggest talents such as ABBA and Celine Dion.
It's actually a good movie for a Will Ferrell movie. Yes it's chaotic......but the music is actually very good and you could put most of the songs on the Eurovision stage and they'd fit right in.
Can't believe Fairytale didn't even get an honorable mention??? Not even for the background dancers doing vertical jump pushups over each other??????? Like damn ok
Watchmojo clearly didn't go by best songs, and I wouldn't even say best performance, but wackiest performance. Alexander Rybak and fairytale should be top of every sane persons list. You listen to the new Eurovision songs, and every year you listen to Alex, atleast I do, Alex is the Eurovision Goat in my eye, he will never be topped. It's the perfect song and performance.
"We were suprised that Finland sent a heavy metal band" Yeah because for a country that has the most heavy metal bands per capita it is just so weird for them to send a heavy metal band.
@@jacques4446 Lordi were a well established metal band in europe long before their part taking in the ESC, founded in 92 and playing headlining gigs at many european metal festival. I knew them long before I ever heard of Gwar (which has more to do with Gwar being virtually unknown in Europe).
They still rarely send Heavy Metal Acts to Eurovision which is a shame because it would liven up the competition and represent Finnish musical identity well.
Non-Europeans, just know that Eurovision isnt just about the song, its also about the performance, outfits and backgrounds, etc. ❤️ love from a European
@Central Intelligence Agency No, it's a music celebration held in the country who won the year before. Each country sends a song, mainly Europeans, but Australia and Israel do participate too. It's beautiful. Let me know if you have more questions.
Let's face it. Most of us literally only know about sunstroke project because of the gandalf head bobbing meme. Otherwise, you literally never would have heard of that song xD Besides, the eurovision performance itself for "Run Away" was mediocre at best. The background dancers were not performing anything really complicated, and the singing was ok, but definitely nothing to write home about. And the song itself, while we have a lot of nostalgic meme feelings attached to it, if it weren't for the meme, the song itself is OK for a pop song, but the lyrics are just once again, MEDIOCRE. There was literally ONLY ONE VERSE AND ONE INTERLUDE! ONLY ONE VERSE, WTF?!?!?!?! THAT'S PATHETIC! It's clear that the artists literally had trouble coming up with lyrics, because like 50% of the song was just repeating the same 2-sentence chorus over and over, became monotonous and boring. And the interlude was boring too. Once again still, repeating the same sentence twice, with that sentence being convoluted and nonsensical. If it weren't for the sick beat and the skillfull violin as well as epic sax guy, it's safe the say the whole song would have fallen flat on its head. Do you even know what placement they got in eurovision 2010? 22ND PLACE. 22ND PLACE! THAT IS NOT IMPRESSIVE AT ALL! Needless to say, I am definitely not the only one in this world who thought the song wasn't that great. It's a good song as a song in itself if you like that genre, but it is definitely not any contest-winning material. TOo simplistic, too short, too monotonous and repetitive. I am not saying this to be an asshole. I am saying this to open all of youyr guys' eyes to reality from your memestic blinders' nostalgia. Someone like me MUST give a non-biased critical analysis of the song to give it an accurate and FAIR score. So no, were it not for the gandalf meme, Epic Sax guy definitely would not make it even to the bottom of this top ten list, let alone be known by ANYONE in america. We need to stop deluding ourselves in favor of memes and biased preferences, and truly rate performances and songs accurately and fairly by their technical merit.
Oh yeah its real and more crazy than you can imagine.. I didn't know who Rachel mcadams was before the film (which is more like a documentary actually..) And.. I'm like the few who hate the Eurovision ..but still have to watch it bc otherwise you won't have a clue what ppl are talking about 24/7 ..
To our American Cousins. Eurovision is actually a big deal to a lot of People. They have Eurovision Parties and singalongs. It's just awesome, harmless Joy!
This is SO wonderful! I wish it was broadcast here, we are just learning about it. Now I can try to find to find the old shows to watch. Thank you Europe!!
It was broadcast in the U.S. from 2016-2018 and then 2019 was on Netflix for a year then removed leading up to the movie release. Though I vastly preferred SVT's (Sweden) online broadcast.
And then in 2021 there came Damiano David, frontman of Maneskin, who moves and takes the stage as if a spark of Freddie Mercury's spirit accidentally fell back on earth during his infinite journey through the universe.
I'm not European (🇨🇦) but ever since I discovered Eurovision through Rybak, I've been getting deeper and deeper into it. Fairytale will always be my favourite tbh.
Donald Sexist Trump i did not even mention ukraine... ukraine is shit.. russia was not allowed to join because they cannot enter ukraine. dumbass.. ukraine started the conflict with their 1944 song.. oops wait, they started tge conflict when they atarted to claim Crimea. cheap ass
We got idol, the voice, got talent and all that jazz in Europe to. Eurovision is all your national pride sent into 3 minutes, and 3 hours of every feeling you know of. And you watch it with all friends and family or at your local pub. The nation freeze and evolves to a nation wide mega party afterwards. Eurovision was created to unify a post WW2 continent who had turned to gravel. It was a way to keep the peace and rebuild our bonds. It represent equality, togetherness and love. For everyone. ESC is not like American idol.
I know about Eurovision since my birth. My whole family was gathering to watch competition. First, We were sending 2 sms for Azerbaijan, which is our brother country, then 1 sms for the country, who had the best song 😂🤣. But since 2012, my country, Turkey doesn't join the Eurovision. So now, we just watch its videos, and follow the competition from youtube. Not being able to eat something you like the taste of is worse than not being able to eat something you don't know the taste of. I wish I were American 😅 By the way, the real winner of 2010 is Manga. Never forget it.
@@gyghfhyh7439 That is excatly what is wrong with the Eurovision. Voting for a country just because its your neighbor or just because the country has a good relationship with your country. Everybody should just vote for who they think is best that year.
@@amyclarke41 I think I honestly speak for everybody when I say: We thought it was a joke too, no wonder it won, she took us all by surprise in more ways than one
"Still surprised that Finland send a heavy metal band, to represent them" 😂 Spoken like someone who hasn't watched Eurovision or knows very much about it. Finland are famous for their contestants to Eurovision 😂
@@xoxo94 A part of Turkey is on the European continent. So it is as much Europe as Russia, and clearly more Europe than Azerbaijan or Australia. Perhaps you are mixing up Europe with the EU.
We have actually sent another one, we sent Teräsbetoni two years later, in 2008, but in ESC, the same "weird" thing doesn't work that close to each other, and they "failed", came 22nd...
@@abbeyrhapsody3205 Yes. I know I am in danger to get stoned, but I still wonder, how this screaming while torturing the violine made the winning entry. I was same badly surprised one year later, when he get the winning cup to "our" Lena... equally horrible!
Americans watching the Will Ferrell movie: "OMG, those performances are so over the top!" Europeans watching the same movie: "It's quite cool how they nailed the performances."
well... it was a national plague on the radio terrorising the country for months after winning so it stopped being wonderful for a lot of us quite fast.
Hmmmm....as an American, the "we're surprised Finland sent a heavy metal band" threw me for a loop Considering HIM had the first album to hit gold here in the states, along with a lot of their modern contributions being heavy metal, it's only surprising that the narrator is surprised. Finland deserves some Eurovision respect, not only did they bring the first metal act but they won the damn thing doing it.... that's pretty incredible!
@isimYoK I watched both, but my honest opinion: Lenas voice catches me more. The MaNga singers voice sounds a bit to flat and the flickering lights and the disgusting robot do not fix it for me.
Hah. She had Wild Dances on a russian radio station in Grand Theft Auto IV called Vladivostok FM and she was chosen to be the host of the said station. She played her role really well. Great woman
Well, the movie is kind of a little tribute to the contest :) actually, more than a few references to past entries can be found in the Fire Saga performances ^_^ it can be hard to be original and innovative these days because of ESC ;) but they did the movie beautifully ^_^
You must be included "Waterloo" by ABBA in 1974 is the most important and revolutionary and best perfomance in the ESC history "Waterloo" was the best song, performed by the best group (ABBA) with the most innovation and creative and iconic perfomance, that change the ESC history forever
how am i just now finding out about eurovision, it seems a crime that this isnt more known about, its literally a music gathering, complete with visuals and stories, its awesome!!!
How dare you put Verka in question ;) But I could agree to switch it with Lordi. I am tired of them appearing in every ESC-related thing just like with ABBA (first list ever, where ABBA wasn't mentioned)
Eurovision is not about english pop songs or stupid performances. This is a joke. It’s about presenting your land’s language and culture. Some of the best ethno songs ever in Eurovison were: Ukraine - Wild Dances 2004 Albania - Suus Albania - Ktheju Tokes Ukraine - Solovey These will never be forgotten, forever breathtaking ❤️
#1 Verka Serdyuchka didn't mix any russian words with English, she was singing "Україна - це кльово" which means in Ukrainian "Ukraine - it is cool". Although some words in Ukrainian language sound like in russian, they are very different.

Ah yes, all the women and gays
handsome devil

He's so beautiful it is actually sickening

Right?!!
Memes are dead memes
"Waterloo is too static"
Continues to put static performances on the list
If Conchita Wurst wasn’t a bearded lady that performance would definitely be regarded as “too static”
Concita hm I thought she was a joke till she sang😜
@@amyclarke41 I think I honestly speak for everybody when I say: We thought it was a joke too, no wonder it won, she took us all by surprise in more ways than one
"Still surprised that Finland send a heavy metal band, to represent them" 😂
Spoken like someone who hasn't watched Eurovision or knows very much about it. Finland are famous for their contestants to Eurovision 😂
Hadise from Turkey, Kalomira from Greece and Ani Lorak from Ukraine deserves at least a honorable mention.
Türkiye var diye bakmaya geldim. 4'e maNga'yı koymuşlar. Harikaa 🇹🇷
Didn't know turkey is a european country
Sertab da olmaliydi
The Kaiser its not
@@xoxo94 A part of Turkey is on the European continent. So it is as much Europe as Russia, and clearly more Europe than Azerbaijan or Australia.
Perhaps you are mixing up Europe with the EU.
@@xoxo94 Europe is a Turkish land :)) Your grandparents know well from the ottoman
maNga 🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥
Suprised that finland sent a heavey metal band to the eurovision??? Come on we are finland thats says it all
the controversialist party I'm surprised that they HAVEN'T sent another
We have actually sent another one, we sent Teräsbetoni two years later, in 2008, but in ESC, the same "weird" thing doesn't work that close to each other, and they "failed", came 22nd...
you finnish people are pussys! we estonians drink so mutch more beer and vodka then you and we can stay in a hot sauna longer!
rampage the sneaky lil bitch such a lame troll.
rampage the sneaky lil bitch hahahahahaa what a good joke

Stop being so fucking sensitive about the littlest things. Fuck sake.
i can't believe they didn't include Alexander Rybak and Hadise!!!
no , this lists is not for great artists....
i expected him to be number one, but he wasn't even mentioned
This list is about stage shows and presentation and Hadise and Rybak were pretty tame for Eurovision standards.
What makes it worse is that they got the year Alexander Rybak was performing wrong... By 15 years... They wrote 1996, not 2009
Verka is an absolute ICON , i'm not even from ukraine and even 13 years later in my country this song is still on school dances
А ви звідки ?
Verka being number one as she deserves. What a queen.
but what about "fairytale"?
thats the best of them all!
This video is about best performances; not best songs.
Abbey Rhapsody fairy tale had a great stage
@@abbeyrhapsody3205 also it was not the best songs... and the performance was cheesy…
@@olmaBLN are you talking about Fairytale?
@@abbeyrhapsody3205 Yes. I know I am in danger to get stoned, but I still wonder, how this screaming while torturing the violine made the winning entry. I was same badly surprised one year later, when he get the winning cup to "our" Lena... equally horrible!
came here for number 1, thought it wasn't gonna be here, but in the end I was not disappointed
"WE COULD BE THE SAME, NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY!"
maNga 🤘🏽✨
Where is Fairy Tale - Alexander Rybak (2009) :(.
Trần Minh Trí yeah
It's the second clip (they wrote that it was in 1996)
IKR ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Trần Minh Trí In the trash where it belongs
By far the best 😍😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️
Where is Epic Sax Guy?
Sam Stormy thats the only reason i clicked on this god awful video. What a travesty.
Epic sax guy was just part of a larger performance
And it was a great performance. The violin was also awesome.
memes aren't going to work here kiddo
Yeah i missed him too :(
No Alexander Rybak? TRIGGERED
Sebastian Krajewski Sooo triggered
He was in the Love Love Peace Peace section.
Sebastian Krajewski because he was singing an anime (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Who is Rybak?
he has the record for the most votes before they change the rule last year. it was year 2009 fairy tales
Americans watching the Will Ferrell movie: "OMG, those performances are so over the top!"
Europeans watching the same movie: "It's quite cool how they nailed the performances."
Alexander Rybak performed again in 2018, but I like the song less than "Fairytail". That song was wonderful!
Fairytail was so gorgeous and unique. His 2018 song sounded way too boring and generic.
me too
Lisa Baer Yeah, and also...his violin. Like, It was nearly 10y ago. Let it go haha
well... it was a national plague on the radio terrorising the country for months after winning so it stopped being wonderful for a lot of us quite fast.
Same

Whose here after watching Eurovision the story of fire saga on Netflix ? 🙋♀️

Me to

🤘👍
Hmmmm....as an American, the "we're surprised Finland sent a heavy metal band" threw me for a loop
Considering HIM had the first album to hit gold here in the states, along with a lot of their modern contributions being heavy metal, it's only surprising that the narrator is surprised.
Finland deserves some Eurovision respect, not only did they bring the first metal act but they won the damn thing doing it.... that's pretty incredible!
Finland is Savage af!
Saunas beer and hockey
You are right by Girl from Finland kiitos!!
Hell yeah metal all the way
Ascending Stargazer yes, we are savage! Eipä si toi ukraina ekana xdd...
Yeah, they have a lot of awesome metal bands :D
Saying as a big Nightwish fan :D
Ruslana gave a fantastic show in 2004. She's still my favorite Eurovision winner
She looks like a grounder from The 100 xD
Same... absolute favorite and I was so young back then😅
But her voice is very weak. It's all about dancing.
Ruslana - wild dances
GTA 4 Players will know
they had lots of Eurovision songs in GTA IV 😂
I always forget it's a Eurovision song it's so good.
THEY HAD EUROVISION SONGS IN GTA 4??
VikingAWarrior yup
ya
Farid Mammadov - Hold me. You are the best, Farid!❤️❤️ Azerbaijan🇦🇿🇦🇿❤️🥰
0:20 Alexander Rybak won in 2009, not in 1996
Paulina Grabowska actually 2010
lena won 2010
Lissy769 2009
still lena won 2010 and Alexander in 2009
Alexander Rybak, the best of all. He's incredible!
Wennes Mota yes😍😍
this one was pretty bad though... sounded like a kids song
Hans Hering i agree
Fairytale atleast shoud have been in the top 5 or top 3 i mean come on its one of the best songs on Eurovision
YES
no one should be suprised that finland sent Lordi :D
It's the country with more rock bands per capita lol
real winner 2010 maNga .
hell nah
@isimYoK well obviously her performance was better since she won
@isimYoK
I watched both, but my honest opinion:
Lenas voice catches me more.
The MaNga singers voice sounds a bit to flat and the flickering lights and the disgusting robot do not fix it for me.
@@LuManKrix lol. Her lyrics were childish. She looked like she was about to pee during the performance.
@@pinarvaris And yet it was still better then that turkey sh.t
I had almost forgot Ruslana, and how much I loved her when I was little. Best performance ever!
Hah. She had Wild Dances on a russian radio station in Grand Theft Auto IV called Vladivostok FM and she was chosen to be the host of the said station. She played her role really well. Great woman
She is iconic, and although I loved her, she had a terrible influence on the following year when everyone tried to copy her :)
I can see Will Ferrell took multiple references from past contests....especially the hamsterwheel
Well, the movie is kind of a little tribute to the contest :) actually, more than a few references to past entries can be found in the Fire Saga performances ^_^ it can be hard to be original and innovative these days because of ESC ;) but they did the movie beautifully ^_^
@Elias Onzalez Netta Barzilai, the song is called toy :)
Oh my god yes verka serduchka 😍😍😍
You must be included
"Waterloo" by ABBA in 1974
is the most important and revolutionary and best perfomance in the ESC history
"Waterloo" was the best song, performed by the best group (ABBA) with the most innovation and creative and iconic perfomance, that change the ESC history forever
Ukraine is my favorite Eurovision country. I love Sweden, Portugal, Estonia, Latvia very much too
What about Romania ?
Romania this year liked the most :)
6:06 can we take a moment and thank that guy for pronuncaiting 'maNga' right?
Noobish LOL 6:46...
*Pronouncing
Their name was based of the actual word so uhmmm...
#1 was ALWAYS a favorite of mine. I HIGHLY appreciate that these were not all songs that got top honors.
how am i just now finding out about eurovision, it seems a crime that this isnt more known about,
its literally a music gathering, complete with visuals and stories, its awesome!!!
and it was created after ww2 to unite europe again and people just liked it so much so they kept doing it every year :)
manga,we could be the same was too much for this contest
can anything truly be too much?
Omg you have forgotten Loïc Nottet from Belgium in the ESC 2015. He didn't win but he was amazing and his performance was incredible
Yes ,LOIC NOTTET is unforgettable ! Best performance I've ever seen on ESC. And his concerts on his SELFOCRACYTOUR are the BEST :)
yeah, The Selfocracy Tour is amazing 😍 I saw the show last month in Brussels, and I've never seen a concert like that. He's an incredible young boy !
In the year there were many good performances.
It is my favorite Eurovision performance, amazing song and amazing artist
I loved him!! I still listen to that song regularly
My foverite song maNga 🇹🇷 and Alexander rybak - fairytale 🇳🇴
From turkey 🇹🇷
Crayz GİRL Fairytale was a epic song👍 from Norway🇳🇴
yes and epicsaxguy too
As bayrakalrı
Alexander Rybak is gonna return this year!! Whit the song thats how you write a song:-) I love him!!!! I am from Norway Btw
I’m Canadian and I still understand most of the languages they use. I love seeing the performances come to life and to see what each country does.
0:20
That was 2009
Not 1996
aaron o d your right
Yeah he was 10 years..... :facepalm*
No that was 2018
laguna morski potwór no Fairytale was 2009 That's how you write a song was 2018 same guy
Quixy Lados oohh ok
Alexander Rybak - Fairytail deserved at least a spot on this list if not even the first place!!!!!
read the tittle again its not about how good a song was ........
I know What the title sais. His preforming is one of the best
performance was horrible
Elma Sara Larue Nice, and wich country is you from
How dare you put Verka in question ;) But I could agree to switch it with Lordi. I am tired of them appearing in every ESC-related thing just like with ABBA (first list ever, where ABBA wasn't mentioned)
have you ever read a comment and ever thought "I wish I wrote that comment"
Yes
I am in a state of shock I wish I wrote that comment
I am in a state of shock i read your comment and thought "should i also steel this comment like this guy did?"
Eurovision is not about english pop songs or stupid performances. This is a joke. It’s about presenting your land’s language and culture.
Some of the best ethno songs ever in Eurovison were:
Ukraine - Wild Dances 2004
Albania - Suus
Albania - Ktheju Tokes
Ukraine - Solovey
These will never be forgotten, forever breathtaking ❤️
I totally agree. I might pick other songs, but this video just makes ESC a caricature of what it actually is.
These people have obviously never watched Eurovision...
#1 Verka Serdyuchka didn't mix any russian words with English, she was singing "Україна - це кльово" which means in Ukrainian "Ukraine - it is cool". Although some words in Ukrainian language sound like in russian, they are very different.
Thanks from Ukraine for the putting Verka on the top! Maybe she didnt win in contest in 2006, but she wins the whole eurovision!))
Ehm... its not a female its a male.. he's the king of Eurovision!
By far the most epic one of all time! If anything else would have been nr 1, the whole list would have been useless.
2007*
Psycho Cat Verka is a drag queen tho, which means that people should use female pronouns when Verka is in drag
Personally for me, from Denmark, I'm just happy you sent Verka to Eurovision! It was so fun and so epic!
I'm from Azerbaijan, thanks for adding Azerbaijan in video
