- Opening Act from Semi-final 2.
Every year, the Eurovision is getting bigger. Countries not even technically in Europe (looking at you, Australia) are now competing in the Eurovision. More and more countries not competing are broadcasting the show. From China to America - the world is uniting in the Eurovision spirit.
But what is the Eurovision? What the heck is even going on? Well, let Petra and Måns take you on a musical trip, Broadway-style, that will make everything completely crystal clear (maybe).
This clip was originally aired on May 12th from Semi-Final 2 of the Eurovision Song Contest 2016.

The best opening ever in Eurovision history!!
Why can't Mans and Petra be hosts every year!! :( I love them soooo much!
0:40 "And bankrupt the host TV station." Yep, that's true. We had *four* shows, *two* second chances and one large final. We could've just had the large final, since we are already guaranteed a place in the final because we won last year.
The production and the hosts were the best part of this year's competition by far. Måns Zelmerlöw should try to get on the West End. I think he would do great in something like Guys and Dolls or Book of Mormon.
cool. it's almost like tony award show.
AMAZING. I loved this.
It's a
multinational competition
With a collaborative mission
So much like the Olympics in a way
Sure, it's rather less athletic
Though just as energetic
More colorful,and what's the word?
Theatrical?
We make music and
friends with every nation
And bankrupt
the hosting TV station
To help to shore up a post-war
Europe, in 1956, it all began
The set, I'm rather
certain, was nothing but a curtain
There were only seven
countries and one camera-man
But then it started
growing now Australia's ours!
We're a big black
hole sucking in all the star
We'll take over the
world and then conquer Mars!
That's Eurovision!
It's an annual
celebration of our culture
It's the highlight of our year
And a victory can catapult you
Just look at my career!
Yes, so we see..
You get to share the stage with me!
We're all excited, the fans united
From Reykjavík, Riga and Rome
At Eurovision, there's no
derision cause wherever you come from
Here is home!
[Fan #1]:For loving Eurovision,
I get bullied at school
[Fan #2]:But when we come
together, I don't feel a fool!
[Fan #1]: Cause for one week
a year, we're pretty cool!
[Fan #1+2]: That's Eurovision!
Getting votes from
your neighbours is a sure way
to get your song disgraced
But when Sweden gets
12 points from Norway, it's
clearly just good taste
That gimmicky
factor, the wacky, the weird
Céline on a tractor, Conchita's beard
Pirates and penguins
and puppets on strings
These are a few of my favourite things!
The singers come together
like songbirds of a feather
For victory they hope and pray and beg
Wait there in the green room,
an often rather mean room, wishing
all of our competitors break a leg
The impact of the
show I cannot overstate
No matter where you
go, it's a source of debate
But it's something
you either love or hate
That's Eurovision!
And the interval
act is your one big chance
To fail to live up to Riverdance!
Where else can you hear Romansh
and Luxembourgish sung?
We've had two songs with sign
language and three in made-up tongue
And Antillean Creole,
Norwegian, Võro, Viennese
Neopolitan, Catalan, Udmurt,
Montenegrin and Maltese
Ancient Greek, Albanian, Slovak,
Ukrainian, Romani, Russian, Romanian
Crimean, Slovenian, Hebrew,
Armenian, Arabic and Lithuanian
Portuguese, Macedonian,
Breton, Estonian, Pontic, Icelandic,
Croatian, Bulgarian, Georgian,
Italian, Bosnian, Latvian, Corsican,
Serbian, German, Hungarian
Polish and English
and Irish and Finnish and
Swedish and Spanish and Dutch
Samogitian and Turkish
and Danish and French
Tahitian, though not very much!
And though I don't know
Czech, Swahili, Azeri or Greek
Music is a language
that we all know how to speak
That's Eurovision!
It's your decision
Though not taking part is a crime
Douze points or zero
You'll be a hero of our time!
In the Eurovision family,
we do it 'glitz and glamour-ly'
Cause rich in kitsch
and hammily is best!
This is My-rovision
And His-rovision
And Her-rovision
And Your-rovision
Bienvenue, välkomna, be our guest!
