For Charles Leclerc and Monaco there's also one more important thing to include: he is also a musician kinda, he plays the piano. He has 3 piano songs on Spotify, along with an EP with Sofiane Pamart. So it wouldn't be as far-fetched to see him in a song for Monaco for Eurovision as it sounds (it would still be crazy though)
I'm in the camp that thinks Crystal Ball is someone associated with Eurovision/EBU in some way (if it is, it gives disgruntled employee that understandably got pissed about Israel's participation, went rogue, and quit)
Mileo did not deserve what people did to him. Anyone who thought the yandere lyrics were earnest was simply stupid and overreacting. He was playing a character, and is continuing to do so, thankfully. It's a fictional universe and he was prepared to go all-out on stage with it. I would've loved to see it.

The rumours of Dannii representing us at Eurovision was a lot of fun though!
43:21 Entering Jabłuszko was actually an elaborate troll by Misja Eurowizja's community, where Jabłuszko became a meme after taking part in their fan contest.
Also, about Polish selection, they also originally posted results without putting, how each jury member voted, but then it turned out there were 3 points missing. They deleted it and posted another post, this time with results from each jury member and with missing participant, that get those missing 3 points
The only thing that excites me about ESCGabe ending coverage of the 2024 season soon is I won't have to play russian roulette and risk hearing My AI anymore when I watch his videos 😅
With the ''You're mine'' thing. where were yall when Ava Max dropped sweet but psycho.... when Taylor Swift dropped no body, no crime.... when SZA dropped kill bill
I'd add that it was plenty apparent that he's playing a character and the song isn't to be taken seriously. The performance felt very musical theatre, with obvious costumes and exaggeration. I loved it.
@@Izumi250 Side tangent: I watched the first season of Hannibal for the first time last year, and found a very cool fan made playlist that has loads of songs with questionable morals. Which shows that it works, and there's definitely an audience for them! I'm not one for love songs, I find the ones that portray the darker sides of humanity more interesting. I've since added more songs in my own playlist and changed the title to simply "Will Graham", but I believe the og was called "the wh*rification of Will Graham" (so much for the "darker sides of humanity" 😂)
The app thing on ESCZ happened to me too. It is not just a tin foil hat controversy. You just don't expect that as soon as you touched one of the tiles it would automatically record the vote. Obviously there should be a confirmation screen for you to confirm the vote.
As a Swede, old enough to remember the total media storm when Björn Borg divorced Jannike in favour of Loredana. And then the following years, when their stormy relationship never ever stopped giving headlines. I would have gotten really bad flash backs if she actually would have won in San Marino.
7:09 In 1993, Portugal had a similar situation where there were five semifinals with four songs each. Each song had a live presentation and was then scored by jury, with the eight songs with highest scores overall would qualify to the final. In the end, none of the songs from the fourth and fifth semifinals made it through whereas all four songs from the first semifinal qualified.
Spaniard here. I'm certain that Eva Mora's departure is more complicated and not because of Blanca's result (at least not mainly), because in Armenia for the JESC there were some tensions brewing already... there's some shady stuff always going on inside RTVE and most of that shadiness is related to politics and constant changes of administration/leading.
I'm so thankful to Crystal Ball because I wanted to boycott Israel's song but being curious I did want to hear the song at least once so I got to hear it, Then I never listened to it ever again except for when a small clip of the song featured in top 20 videos made by Eurovision.
9:01 I am literally obsessed with July Jones so thanks Gabe for mentioning this track lol When I first heard Diamanti Grezzi I was so lost when I heard the intro was the same as Majesty
I thought the travolta thing was about him being a bad sport when asked to do the qua qua/chicken dance, and later refusing to give permissions for it to be aired, leading to Italian media (and Russell Crowe) making fun of him
I had forgotten about the "wannabe Eurovision host city" marketing of UMK, thanks for reminding me! That was probably my favourite marketing campaign ever, I love UMK's sense of humor 😆
9:02 Oh my god! July Jones went to my high school briefly before transferring to a different one in the same area. I won't disclose why as it was personal to her, but I can say we were in a choir together (baritones represent!) and our class watched one of her music videos. I truly hope she represents Slovenia someday!
I was at Eurovision 2024 and I can say will full confidence that by that Thursday, the mood for the entire event had shifted. We had planned to go to Malmö that Friday to see Kääjirä perform at the Euro Village, but went to the Copenhagen National Art Museum instead. That’s when the news broke about Joost. We tried our best to enjoy the museum, however I’d be lying if I say we weren’t distracted by checking our phones every 5 seconds for any updates.
Ok, I'm putting this into the universe, so there's proof. My wild guess is that the guest in the next video will be Nemo themselves since they've said months ago that they wanted to be a part of the ESC iceberg. We'll see in three days if I'm a genius or a complete fool for coming up with that theory xD
19:30 also eleni foureira released a song ιn 2015 that had the lyrics ''tha afiso tin kardia moy na xtypa pio dynata ta ta ta ta''which is very similar to ''xtypaei i kardia mou dynata ta ta ta''which is the song that evi wrote.
I know, it's just being mentioned as a side note in this video, but can we all agree on the fact that a song which finished last with the televote couldn't have been robbed. Maybe we should just acknowledge the fact that it probably just wasn't a good song to begin with.
Ulveham is a really good song, but ESC isn't really a place for folk metal. From a technical side, it's a good song. Doesn't mean the song is genuinely bad just because they were last.
29:50 Jury members were told to vote in accordance with their own taste. Miss Moś took that literally and just voted for whoever and whatever she liked the most. It's sorta an equivalent of "unpopular opinions" fan getting a jury seat. Moś has been very open on social media about her reasonings and if you have any questions regarding her vote, feel free to just ask her.
Dannii Minogue being picked for us in Australia would've been horrific, that's like picking Peter Andre, no one outside the UK or Australia is in on the joke... also i liked Super Rob - My AI at first but it got super annoying very fast, probably best that it was down to KeiiNO and Gåte
Regarding the sample, Iolanda's is clearly distinct from the others. They all sound similar because they're ascending quarter notes played by strings, but the chord progression in Iolanda's isn't comparable to the others.
Once you started talking about Croatia and the rigging with Vatra, I felt called out, lol. Nobody really knows how that rumor started, but it wasn’t naive at all. The rules for Dora were introduced much later than the songs were, basically just a few weeks before the event. So, we had no idea if it would be like in Serbia, where all points are later converted to the 1-12 system. We also didn’t know there would be an international jury. On top of that, Vatra is, nowadays, a fairly mediocre band that not many people listen to, but they still dominate some radio charts (which nobody really cares about). Their Dora song was #1 for several weeks in a row, and it also got quite a few views on RUclips-almost too many any comments. So, I hope now you can understand why we were so worried. Kisses to y'all from my usually very mediocre country.
@@tr13sk thanks appreciate it. Then why does Gabe say something about this guy who suggested to include something in the iceberg but then blocked him on Twitter. Then Gabe goes like - well if you wanted me to include in the iceberg, why block me? This confused me as it’s kinda suggesting that Gabe is the author of the iceberg
Top video but part 3 better include Baby Lasagna the GOAT donating 50 000 euros that he got from the Croatian goverment to two hospitals that treat children with cancer
Tbh I think beyond politics, the fact that MoroccanOil, an Israeli company, is one of the main sponsors of Eurovision will always mean that there is also a financial interest in keeping Israel in the competition.
Are you gonna talk about the petition that the Bosnian band Dubioza Kolektiv goes to eurovision to represent the countries that cant participate bcuz of money issues.Sadly the petition didnt get enough sings
To be fair, Spain's disaster was just a voice crack. Maybe it wasn't brilliant, but neither was Chanel's and it was much more uplifting and his was all about the SONG. Norway would have done better with Keino, and while I know some of their songs seem like just copies of their first, I thought this years was more original. John Travolta?!!! Lol! That's what I get for not watching all one thousand hours of San Remo! 🤣 I didn't like Kaleen's song at all, but given how long her husband worked in the business, I don't see how this would be seen as nepotism. One of the wolves was involved in Superhero Rob? 🤣Oh I hated that. 🤣 Melodifestivalen tea??? 🤣 Luktel about EDD??? 🤣 I love Wiwibloggs despite their issues...though I truly stan William ...but I was pissed about their Bambie reviews so I'm glad they clapped back! EBU flag foolishness is more foolish....big surprise. Lastly ....unless I'm wrong Wiwibloggs has been trolling me about Pinterest for ages! They haven't added anything since 2016!
7:04 ... wasn't there suspicions about rigging/buying votes ? like, something iffy along the lines of randomly getting 12s from the countries with the lowest amount of viewers ? (but only in the semi)
holy shit I just watched Loco Boombox. That is the hottest thing I have seen. He needs to go to Eurovision.
REAL

21:16 for even more witchy stuff with Bambie thug, RTÉ One had 666,000 viewers for the Grand Final.
Honestly... UPVSM needs its own iceberg
Yes, he should make an iceberg video just about this hidden gem of a national selection.

I can never listen to Imagine again

The go tiffany thing is so funny because im icelandic and cant hear it at all its not even close to me
It’s like when people joked ‘Tänker inte alls’ in Mello 2021 sounded like ‘Take it up the ass’ 😅
Mileo did not deserve what people did to him. Anyone who thought the yandere lyrics were earnest was simply stupid and overreacting. He was playing a character, and is continuing to do so, thankfully. It's a fictional universe and he was prepared to go all-out on stage with it. I would've loved to see it.
Old Australian lady from the internet enters the chat: Kylie vs Dannii.
In ye olden times Kylie was the actor, Dannii was the singer. Dannii was on a very popular kids talent show called Young Talent Time while Kylie was appearing on popular TV dramas like The Henderson Kids. Dannii and Kylie did perform together on YTT (you can find this on youtube and this was while Kylie wasn’t regarded as “the singing sister”).
Dannii aged out of the talent show at 16, Kylie ended up on Neighbours, then sang at some small football event and the rest is history.
It is almost a John vs James Newman for the UK scenario from outside of Aus but both Kylie and Dannii are as well known as each other here, just ended up on different paths. The rumours of Dannii representing us at Eurovision was a lot of fun though!
I just know that "I begin to wonder" was and is a banger ✨
32:21 That's Ivana Vladović, the singer to whom we own the iconic minotaur performance in PZE with her song Jaka 🛐

It’s cause Mileo is not a woman. It’s stupid, but true.
I'd add that it was plenty apparent that he's playing a character and the song isn't to be taken seriously. The performance felt very musical theatre, with obvious costumes and exaggeration. I loved it.
Also, plenty of books,movies and other media have villain protagonists. Why can't songs be written from the perspective of a bad person?

Also, go watch the first part if you haven’t. It’s really funny.🎉
