I personally think Australia sends very great songs and i loved almost all of them i love this song and the voyager song last year and both of these songs got robbed. And I think Australia has the same problem my country (Lithuania) does we do not have enough friends to vote for us.
I'm Australian I am not from Aboriginal descent but my oh my hearing the didgeridoo being played on such a big platform made me tear up. Well done that was awesome
I know and I agree. It makes you exceedingly proud to hear our first nation music, and the didgeridoo included, on a Swedish stage with millions of people seeing a piece of our culture, is inspiring.
Those emotions came across the tv screen to many including myself, and I’m not even Australian 😮what a wonderful collection of colours, people, vibes, humanity ❤
Despite the NQ, it was still amazing to see Yankunytjatjara (An endangered indigenous language) being featured and performed on the worldstage for the first time. If you enjoyed Electric Fields, please check out more of their works and keep a tab on Zaachariaha's nomination for the prestigious Hadley's Art Prize. Us Assies might not have much but we do love a good show, can't wait to them making a future comeback. ;)
Swede here. You aussies deserve so much better! Literally, you have made esc so much more alive and vibrant with awesome songs every year. Sorry you didn't make it this year. Your entry was my favorite.🇸🇪❤🇦🇺
I’m happy Australia 🇦🇺 enter the Eurovision. I thought Electric Fields were incredible and they voted boring countries to go through like Slovenia and Norway. Love from the UK 🇬🇧

I am from Lithuania and I personally loved almost all of Australias ESC preformances. And I think this song is great and so was the song last year. Some people would not know a good thing if it sat on their face. And I think Australia has the same porblem as Lithuania we dont have many friends to vote for us.
@@nerag7459 A good performance of the song, but not a good presentation. The people at home vote on the entertainment factor of it as a whole. It was a bit of an incoherent messy performance visually. Not well thought through.
As Australian this made me proud. Got goosebumps when our First Nations played the didgeridoo I don’t know why we enter Eurovision when we are not part of Europe but this was a killer song.
Just be part of Europe, 'cause EU is a part of our Western Civilization, as UK, Ukraine, Canada, New Zealand, USA and some others countries. Only together we can be strong and only together we can defeat any evil.
@GrahamClarke-yb4cu FINALLY , someone else says it , the last minute was an absolute mess and that is the main reason why it didn't qualify , there were lines missed from 2:44-2:50 , weird facial expressions , the last line was not really sang but screeched and there were 2 bum notes and to top it all of a weird camera shot in the cube that was on....Nothing?
Almost forgot the fact that you could tell they just stopped trying to perform and just kinda stood there not doing anyting aswell after the main bum note
@@MatthewEade-hj6tf I would have agreed with you! But there were dancers on the stage having their moment, but the costuming and lighting made them impossible to see 🤷♀️
@@mifeke6149no, it wasn’t! I loved it! I’m from 🇺🇦 and we have similar instrument, but much longer, called trembita. In 2004 our singer Ruslana used it for her ESC performance and won that year. For me it was very interesting to see a new culture and diversity. Eurovision is about diversity of songs and cultures. Australian performance gave me a lot of positive emotions and I enjoyed watching it. Pity it didn’t make to the finals, but ESC is about a big music party and fun and we love having you as a part of it! 😊🩷🇦🇺
It's not really Australian culture. In fact, there is NO real Australian culture. We're all immigrants or descendants of migrants from somewhere else and don't really know who or what we are culturally. Indigenous culture is routinely marginalised and occasionally dragged out when we need to present some kind of culture to a global audience.
The vocals were so flat in the belty sections and tone wasn't toning- eurovision doesn't forgive major performing mistakes 😕 The fact that it was the first song about indigenous identity from Australoa makes me even sadder this didn't slay
@@heyitsrosie the ENTIRE show sounded bad on TV for me, most had major sound problems in the semis, Croatia were about the only ones with enough bass to just ovepower the venue's sound issues. Everybody else sounded weak.
Unfortunately, over the past years people have been voting not for quality songs, but for songs from their neighborhood countries. Australia's song this year was definitely one of the best!
Many said and I agree partially that the lyrics video didn't do them any favor and the staging wasn't as good as it could had been to push them more. On the top of it they used the social media to promote themselves VERY little unlike the other countries. The song was good and electric fields are amazing. They were 11th in the votes with only 5 points difference to serbia that went through as last in the first semi. Would had australia invested on them a bit more for a better staging and a better video and would had they used the social media more to promote themselves, I think they would had got more then that 6 points they needed to beat serbia and advance themselves instead.
@@fm95master yup weird music video and odd staging decisions let them down. I think after all the jam packed rehearsals and jury performances, this grand final suffered vocally as well.
@@ANTEIZAKANTEI'm Aussie and I don't mind the criticism over us being involved in Eurovision. I sort of agree. But that aside, you gotta admit it's a damn good Eurovision song/performance.
A lot of the songs were really good, in my opinion i would’ve rather had this qualify than Finland but many will disagree with me. Unfortunately, Australia didn’t get enough votes.
i voted for this song to go to the finals, love the chemistry and the vibe! the song really makes me feel happy and joyfull~ thank you! love from germany
Beautiful song, and it is amazing that Australia finally has shown at least a little bit of the Aboriginal culture. Electric Fields, you were amazing. I voted for you (from Brazil 🇧🇷💙🇦🇺)
Thank you for bringing something so special & unique! Have been listening to this band since their 2019 national selection Eurovision hit! Love from Ukraine!
Well, if you sent a tired copy of 'Fuego' as about a dozen of other countries do for a 5th year straight you might have qualified, but instead you sent this amazing entry, taught us about this unique culture and brought joy to many viewers across the world. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this performance
I think the singing was excellent the whole way through, performance wise it was a little dry compared to others, but the end really delivered🎉 I can't believe it didn't qualify!
They deserved so much better! Australia has a long way to go before it feels like a natural participant in Eurovision for the European audience. It's a shame we didn't vote for such a great entry.

I loved this song!... I can't believe ye didn't make it through to the final... one of the best if not the best song in the contest. Love from Ireland 🇮🇪
@@BetjeWolff-v2s Zaachariaha, the lead singer, is Aboriginal. So were his backup singers and Fred Leone, the didgeridoo player. The graphics on the LED display were based off a traditional artwork that Zaachariaha painted. The words ‘milkali kutju’ are from the Yankunytjatjara language. These are not cliches. They are examples of a living, breathing, evolving culture, and I feel so proud of them for bringing that to a world stage ❤️💛🖤
@@TheAlistardragon So then performing artists find a way to communicate that to the people at home, by sounds and images that speak to them and move them emotionally. People are not sitting upright in college and make notes, are they ? Of course it's not easy. If it was easy, everyone could have a go and it would be boring for us to watch. The competition drives them to higher accomplishments. So I hope Australia will come back with the same concept but a lot more convincing in the presentation of it.
Zaachariaha Fielding стал(а) открытием этого года для меня, как отдельный мир полный тепла, удовольствия и притягательности!❤ Невероятное обоняние, магнетизм и энергетика! Спасибо за невероятное выступление - очень впечатлило! Очень душевно! Со вкусом и чувством. Жаль, что выступлений от Австралии так было мало на Евровидении в этом году
When ‘representation’ is put before skill, you get this. Snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. Wasn’t a bad performance, but you can see which angle they were hoping would carry them further…
Hope Australia still send songs in Aboriginal and Torres straight Islander languages, even thought they didn't qualify, they we're stunning! Love from Mexico 🇲🇽❤️🇦🇺
Loved this performance, it was amazing and definitely deserved to qualify! I hope Australia won’t be discouraged because it’s great to have her on Eurovision. (This might be unpopular but honestly, it be great to add New Zealand and Canada too.)
Important and deep lyrics, joyful sound and groove, their emotions and energy, traditions! Everything was perfect! Really hope they will show it one more time in the final!
I woke up this morning singing milkali haha. I wasn't a fan before but damn the performance was amazing. Thank you for sharing your love with the world. :-) ❤
I just love this song! Especially hearing the Aboriginal languages and didgeridoo on the Eurovision stage! Its a really warm and positive song, which is really needed in this period of time...
Although I was devastated that they didn't make it to the finals, I realized that it doesn't matter since they've made their way into all of our hearts 💚
Their song was really good and came an aborigen on stage. I got account that they could go thrue, but I didn't knew 100% for no one. All artists were brilliant to night, but that was depended of what wanted those who had decission in their hands.

That's why I regret there're no more juries in Eurovision semis. Such an amazing performance, powerful vocals. Definitely deserved to qualify. 🇦🇺
I'm afraid juries wouldn't have helped much here, the voice quality also wasn't really there...
It probably would’ve been last by the juries🤣🤣🤣Everyone else was great with their vocals, Australia just couldn’t hold the high notes
@@noyou1320 ? Sorry where are the high notes that he couldn't hold
I like this duo and I think that this song is underrated. I hope for qualificiation to grand final! Greetings and good luck from Italy!
Indigenous cultures getting represented on the world's biggest stage 🖤❤️💛
Indigenous clichés. Not culture. The public on the couch at home is not fooled.
It makes me so happy to see!
@@BetjeWolff-v2s Zaachariaha, the lead singer, is Aboriginal. So were his backup singers and Fred Leone, the didgeridoo player. The graphics on the LED display were based off a traditional artwork that Zaachariaha painted. The words ‘milkali kutju’ are from the Yankunytjatjara language.
These are not cliches. They are examples of a living, breathing, evolving culture, and I feel so proud of them for bringing that to a world stage ❤️💛🖤
@@TheAlistardragon "evolving"
lol no
@@TheAlistardragon So then performing artists find a way to communicate that to the people at home, by sounds and images that speak to them and move them emotionally. People are not sitting upright in college and make notes, are they ?
Of course it's not easy. If it was easy, everyone could have a go and it would be boring for us to watch. The competition drives them to higher accomplishments. So I hope Australia will come back with the same concept but a lot more convincing in the presentation of it.
I voted and.... no I'm not crying...... YOU GUYS MADE ME FEEL SO MUCH WARMTH! Thank you for this song!!!
I don't understand why this didn't get through, so sad . Theres something very warm and joyous about the song..
When you listen at the first time. You don't understand and might find it dull. But after listening much you gonna be addicted to this song
true it wasn't there at first, but definitely grew and suddenly found my self singing the tune at work
Doubt it
Zaachariaha Fielding стал(а) открытием этого года для меня, как отдельный мир полный тепла, удовольствия и притягательности!❤ Невероятное обоняние, магнетизм и энергетика! Спасибо за невероятное выступление - очень впечатлило! Очень душевно! Со вкусом и чувством. Жаль, что выступлений от Австралии так было мало на Евровидении в этом году
This was so amazing! ☀️
12 points from Ukraine 🌻
I feel you, I see you ❤
It's so sad it didn't qualify and I think it's just because it's a culture too far from Europe but this is pure art, raw and powerful
I love them so much, they deserved the grand final, Greetings from Spain!
I want them to qualify so badly but I don't think they will :(
But I'm still very happy they participated this year
I hope it does!
It got the whole crowd so I feel like it can
Great energy, positive people and a lovely song! I loved the representation of the native language and culture, bravo Australia ❤
THIS WAS AMAZING ! I'm so proud of Electric Fields wow
Vocals were all over the place. It's a low talent outfit that no1 in Australia has even heard of.
When ‘representation’ is put before skill, you get this. Snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.
Wasn’t a bad performance, but you can see which angle they were hoping would carry them further…
Imagine if he managed to hit all the long notes
It would have qualified and the jury would have loved it in the final
AIN'T NO WAY THEY DIDNT QUALIFY
The song is good but Zaachariaha lost his voice
Vocals were all over the place. It's a low talent outfit that no1 in Australia has even heard of.
Proud of you, Electric Fields! With love from home in Australia 🇦🇺

Hope Australia still send songs in Aboriginal and Torres straight Islander languages, even thought they didn't qualify, they we're stunning!
Love from Mexico 🇲🇽❤️🇦🇺
Loved this performance, it was amazing and definitely deserved to qualify! I hope Australia won’t be discouraged because it’s great to have her on Eurovision. (This might be unpopular but honestly, it be great to add New Zealand and Canada too.)
Important and deep lyrics, joyful sound and groove, their emotions and energy, traditions! Everything was perfect! Really hope they will show it one more time in the final!

@@donbil5814 Why are you spamming this comment over and over again, it’s so bizarre.
@@AdelBeautyCon I admit, it is very difficult to make you understand. But I'm determined that you'll get it eventually 😌
Now how can we forget this wonderful number and these beautiful legs with powerful vocals? With love from Ukraine😢🫶🏻♥️🇺🇦
I woke up this morning singing milkali haha. I wasn't a fan before but damn the performance was amazing. Thank you for sharing your love with the world. :-) ❤
I just love this song! Especially hearing the Aboriginal languages and didgeridoo on the Eurovision stage! Its a really warm and positive song, which is really needed in this period of time...
a couple of missed notes there :c
Absolutely deserved to be qualified 😭 Australia and Electric Fields were Great 💖🌈🇦🇺
100k kisses from Ukraine. You are beautifull
Australia deserved so much better, at least for indigenous representation.
IT IS EUROPE MATE
12 points from Ukraine! We're sorry you didn't make it further 🇺🇦🫶
OMG How did Australia not get through? I'll tell you why the song was To Good for Eurovision ❤
Although I was devastated that they didn't make it to the finals, I realized that it doesn't matter since they've made their way into all of our hearts 💚
Their song was really good and came an aborigen on stage. I got account that they could go thrue, but I didn't knew 100% for no one. All artists were brilliant to night, but that was depended of what wanted those who had decission in their hands.
Your performance was just awesome. It's such a shame it didn't qualify. I was so sure you'll be at the top 3 in the final
