This performance by Davina was the interval act during the semifinal of the Eurovision song contest last Tuesday. It is held in the Netherlands because the last time the festival was held, Duncan Laurence won for our country with 'Arcade'. She sang live, contrary to what some people claim, because they doubt that someone can sing live so well. But I know I don't have to convince you of that ; ) When Davina is pulled into the water, you see the Stormsurge ‘Oosterscheldekering’. It is the largest and most famous Delta Work. The 9 km (!) long storm surge barrier closes off the Sea at imminent high water. The Dutch surface is two-thirds below sea level and the Netherlands has had to fight against the water over the centuries. Before Davina's intermission performance, there had been 16 countries competing for a spot in the final. Imho, nobody made it to the world class of Davina's performance, but I am perhaps a little biased, because I am Dutch 😄
On top of the 'this was live' argument, I want to add that earlier in the live show, one of the primary cameras (#5 out of 24 total in the show I think?) broke down, which led to them having to juggle cameras a bit from then on. I think it is noticeable in this performance because there was one or two occasions where she seems to be focused on a camera that obviously isn't present to shoot something. I think it shows just how well they managed the show that it is possible to completely miss such a technical snafu unless you know of the issue existing.
Love your comment! It is not the Oosterscheldekering however. The dam in this video is the Haringvlietdam, and 'only' 5 km long, two islands north of the Oosterscheldekering.
you need a light editor to program and video editor to skip through different camera shots. There is a whole team needed to produce some video show. You don't watch the dancers? Wich moving like water waves, that is edited by a choreographer
I can guarantee you as a professional light and sound technician in the Netherlands that everything is pre-processed. Also called a timecode. You have technical shooting days for that and general rehearsals. The light, sound, video and special effects only have to press a button and everything comes pre-programmed. Yes it was live, but there were allot of rehearsals days. @coconutman
There is no but in a live performance. I can guarantee you that nothing was editted in this video the way you try to explain. My guess is that every Tom, Dick and Harry knows that the water was not just poured over the performers real time. It's exactly as the one you reply said: No editting, lust a live performance with amazing special effects.
This was written for the Eurovision contest, not as a contending song, but as a showcase/theme song about the Dutch relationship with water, the need for water everywhere. For the Dutch, our link with water is obvious, we've been "fighting" the North Sea for centuries and have tamed her, took land back from her and created ways to keep our nation safe from the destructive power of water. So that is kind of why the song is about water in a broader sense, really great song and in all honesty... this non-contending song pretty much stole the show that evening lol, such high class. Also noteworthy, the Dutch also have a high reputation when it comes to production of any kind in audio/visuals/staging/media and the likes, for this event we took our best engineers and directors etc to make tis show happen, a show that is broadcast to an audience of over 200 million people. So as a nation, you really want to show your abilities when it comes to the Eurovision Song Contest, and this makes it a major publicity billboard as well. We really need to send Davina to the contest itself some day, same goes for Floor Jansen.. both would slay the contest with ease. Thnx for the react man :D
Proud to be Dutch...such a small country with so much talent.. and one of the biggest stage what a performance from our girl davina and so so proud 🙏🌷🇾🇪
@@lucaswallo8127 oh GEKOLONISEERD is a meme in the netherlands you say it if sombody says anything that has to do with the netherlands and even with the smallest things so yeah
That awkward moment when she is better than the actual contestants...And Thekla Reuten making a cameo, with Davina singing her heart out with a story about the water that's so deeply ingrained in Dutch history and culture... AMAZING!🎶🇳🇱
This was the pause-act for the first half final of the Eurovision Songcontest. A yearly contest between singers and groups form all of Europe (and Israël and Australia and sometimes Libanon). It is also a tribute to The Netherlands, always fighting the water. It was sung life on the stage in Ahoy Rotterdam.
This song is made for the Netherlands . because we are fighting always against the water. We life under sea level. This song was specially made for the Eurovisiesongfestival witch is this week in holland. And Davina is Dutch
You'll understand the lyrics more when you realize The Netherlands is below sea level compared to the rest of Europe, and how we've been struggling against the water to keep the country and its inhabitants safe...we have to work together to make this work.......
@@sebvanwensen misschien het feit dat meer dan de helft van NL onder de zeespiegel ligt en als de dijken breken meer dan de helft van de Nederlandse bevolking kan sterven. Is een gokje
I know you already know this, but I just wanted to say, in my humble opinion, this is what happens when everything comes together perfectly, music, visual, lyrics,. dance, lighting, and of course an amazing artist like Davina who can put the message and performance out there and hit you with an enormous force. This one left me, and still does, breathless every single time.
Hi from The Netherlands. Our country has a horrible history with water. In 1953 a part of our country floated. A lot of people died. It's still an issue, because our country is far below sea level. That's why the 'wall' is in the video, to protect our country against the higher sea levels. Good review, thanks ❤
Loved this 🔥🔥 It was fire. An amazing live performance, and the vid in the background very cool. Proud of our Davina. Thankyou youngman. Much bless and big hug from the Netherlands
You can watch the finals of the Eurovision Song Contest live on Saturday. A whole night event with over 200.000.000 people watching all over Europe. It’s live streamed as if 3 p.m. EST.
2 years Madonna was flew in for a performance act on that Eurovision Song Festival. Costs: 1 million dollars! And you know what....it sounded like a chicken that was getting strangled 😱. But look here at Davina. As you see we didn't need to fly in an expensive singer and we even got a way better performance 😁.
@@erik5374 not talking about the ESF itself, but the fact that they had to pay Madonna 1 million dollars to do her act two years ago and it was crap. Davina didn't and wasn't.
the Netherlands organisized the 65st Eurovision, a yearly (well, except last year) song contest. This was the interval act and it’s about the relationship between the Netherlands and Water. a BIG part of the Netherlands lays below sea-level, the Netherlands are kind of experts in fighting water because if we don’t do that we would drown away. This song basically is about how we need to share knowledge about our water and save life’s with the knowledge that our country has.
The song really is about two things, One: The fact so many in the world lack water, whilst others have more than an abundance of water and that we should try to share. Two: The horrors the Dutch have suffered from said water, the Disaster, yes for us in The Netherlands it's The Disaster(Watersnoodramp) of 1953, after a severe storm the sea defences of the Netherlands failed and almost 2000 people lost their lives due to the floods. After this, we Dutch decided to never again allow this to happen and we constructed the worlds largest and most elaborate sea surge defence system ever, called the Deltawerken(Delta Works) and the Zuiderzeewerken(Zuiderzee Works) which turned the Zuiderzee into the IJsselmeer(Lake IJssel) and created the land now called Flevoland, which is 545 sq miles of land conquered from the ocean. Nowadays many Dutch companies build dams and surge protections all over the world and even reclaim/conquer land from the ocean, for example in Dubai and we are regarded as the best hydro engineers in the world, which we all have to thank to our historical struggles with water and our connection to it. Hope I was able to elaborate it a little bit :D
The performance is inspired by the 'waternoodsramp' in the Netherlands. The Netherlands has the best water management system in the world since it is the only country in the world that is below sea level. The video shows the imporant relationship between the country and the massive destructive force of water.
Hey man, im from the Netherlands myself, wanted to tell u a good recommendation. ''Music binds us'' from Afrojack, Glennis Grace and Wulf, its from the same contest as this one. but im gonne add u, i think ur reaction is real and i want to see more of u ^^ Keep going bro
This is at the eurovision songcontest(only the biggeat show in the world) its all live so no one edited this. Ok i wonder what you think of Jeangu Macroy - birth of a new age so please react to that one
She will be back on the ESC stage (I think), her own words: "I still need to grow a bit." She was asked already, but She prefers to be allowed to get more millage as a performing artist, first... And become a (bigger)Name in music, big enough to be allowed to do it 100% with her own team, her independent team that brought her this far already. She went her own way, from the start; not depending on 'The Voice' or similar shows to launch herself into the limelight.... And yes, a bit of luck, aka being picked by Glamour to be played back to P!nk. And the rest is history.... Yes, this was commissioned work, partly used by the Dutch ESC2021 creative team. To SHOWCASE there fabulous Stage, CGI, Augmented reality (the bubbles spiraling , etc.), stage effects, dancers, etc., etc... And of course the best Dutch producers, directors, etc. collaborating. But in the end this is a still based on an authentic work of the artist Davina Michelle, and her own team... Davina Michelle; 'Sweet Water' I still remember the first reaction of P!nk in the GLAUMOUR video, her question: "Is She a recording artist, that makes records, and puts records out?" - No ... (in 2017, Dav.M. was still keeping to putting out covers only) "Well, THAT needs to change !!" Well., it DID. This week was 'just another' step, in her lives-journey: ruclips.net/video/nbncx0B0spk/видео.html
Please do the eurovision song contest grand final reaction, it's on 22/05/21 in the Netherlands, Davina's performance was from the eurovision opening night last Wednesday
