Except it's not a singing competition, it's a SONG competition. Big difference.
Or even more precisely, a HIT competition :)
Seriously, why do people keep making this mistake?
@@ely03cassandra um...... they're American??
@@hmtqnikitashakur3399 that doesent matter. It’s in the name
Bruh Abba won in 1974 not 1976. And it's NOT like American Idol. And it's not One of the biggest music competitions. It is THE BIGGEST IN THE WHOLE WORLD!
🏆👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 yes!!!!!
It's NOT a singing Competition, it's in the name: >>Song Contest
Ok nerd
@@idkGBT ok hypocrite
@unknown ok american
When an artist presents a Song into the competition, how do they share that Song with the audience? Do they simply type out the Song lyrics onto a piece of paper and give it to the audience? 🤔
@@eric6345 its a lart of the song
ABBA won in 1974 not 1976, and Eurovision is a SONG contest not a singing competition. Every country send a original song sung by a already based known artist or an upcomming artist that has already won a national final to represent their country
Not to mention it is not like “american idol” on steroids. It is its own original competition
@@frederikke3374 americans enjoy making everything about themselves
@@frederikke3374 which is much older and definitely more professional than whatever that American idol is
Gurl, again with the "American Idol" comparison. Literally at different levels.
wdym
@@lucaswallo8127 Eurovision is such a big and super important contest, American idol can’t compare to it
In short: it is the olympics of music..
as an american i apologize for them saying it’s a singing competition
When misinformed americans would learn that it has nothing in common with American Idol,since it is not a singing competition? EUROVISION SONG CONTEST,people. Not a random talent show. Every country sends an original song,usually performed by someone (singer/band) that is already known in her/his/their own country,and most of the time that were selected by people voting on their national selections. Yes,sometimes there are few politics involved (countries voting for their neighbors,or not giving any points to their enemies),but it is not a general thing. Actually,some of the past winners were Portugal,The Netherlands or even Italy this year,that had nothing to do with politics. Please americans,just stay in your bubble if you are not going to inform properly.
@Brat Brosky And even the talent shows like Idol or The Voice come from Europe. The Voice was invented in The Netherlands,and Idol in the UK. Their own "culture" is ultraprocessing food and deep-frying everything. All of the other things come from Europe. But yeah,we can't expect anything from a country in which most of their nationals think chocolate milk comes from brown cows or that Spain is in Mexico and Switzerland and Sweden are the same 😂.
Montse Ruiz del P omg, laughed out loud at this one :)) so good!
@@mrPp475 lol everyone fries stuff, the us has literally no culture
@@mrPp475 Sounds like you are the one that’s uninformed. All this nonsensical drivel shows how condescending Europeans are. Americans invented blues, jazz, and rock n’ roll. Without American innovation, most Kieran music wouldn’t exist now.
Americans will never fully understand the Eurovion Song Contest because it is much more than just a competition. It is Europe lived, it is a feeling of pride, it is a cultural institution, it shows us Europeans every year what we have in common, despite the diversity on this continent.
In Europe you only need to drive a few kilometers and you are in a different culture, with a different language, different traditions, different food. Europe is an enormous diversity and yet we have so much in common. That's one of the reasons Europe was able to rule much of the world.
Bit much to call Manizha "controversial". Most of the hate she gets is because of her Tajik origins (ie. racism) or outspoken support for women's and LGBT issues.
That what makes her controversial. While what she stands for is good and shouldn’t be at all controversial, quite a few people from Russia do find it controversial.
Yea, she's Tajik in Russia, I remember the BBC video of her being abused by the news and the government, I think?
She is very controversial. Her song caused commotion on Russian news outlets and she literally got death threats. That is more than enough to qualify as controversial.
It's so funny how Americans seems so confused by this competition 😂
Americans always trying to compare.. American Idol on Steroids.. OMG, it's the biggest song competition since 1956, don't compare.. Nothing compares
I'm not the hardcore fan of Eurovision, yet it's a tradition to me and my family to watch the finals' night together and vote our favorite. There's just something truly unique about a whole continent to come together for one night.
Greets from Finland 🇫🇮
ABBA won Eurovision in 1974, not 1976!
Ok nerd
@@idkGBT stop saying OK Nerd to every comment.
@@Daniel-bv6ig ok nerd
@@idkGBT if that's your only response to everything I pity you
@@Daniel-bv6ig ok nerd
How come each so-called journalist over there starts the video comparing the ESC to American Idol? We're in 2021 and you don't still know how to use Google even though you invented it?
"one of the biggest singing competitions"?? Girl its THE biggest, it's even bigger than Superbowl!
That is something she could have said, to help US Audience understand the massiveness of the competition.
Any Americans who are already huge fans of Eurovision?❤️
Right here!
Since I was 13 now over 13 years, Mamma Mia got me hooked on Abba, first Wikipedia search was Abba then Eurovision the rest is history, I’ve never been but I’ve been to the Swedish final in 2017 and can sing in most of the Eurovision languages albeit badly but that’s what a lot of my European friends are surprised I sing some of their songs or can at least pronounce a song quite well. Haha 😆, can’t wait to write a song for the American version
Been watching since 2011!!!
Me
First watched it in 2016 when DAMI Im was there and since she is the first ethnic korean to sing in the contest I’m korean as well which is how I discovered the competition.
Something Europe has that America doesn't and will never have. FEELS GOOD.
This year they will have a American Song Contest actually, hilarious 😂
I know another thing we have that they don’t have: History
@@arthurlecomte8950 boohoo, we live in your heads.
@@lilpain8883 Sure, as a constant source of amusement and target of pity.
@@Littleloulotus1964 It's just stolen and not something they came up with themselves. Plus it's only the 50 states which is not the same as countries with different languages, cultures or history. It's just one country
Even Flo Rida is performing for San Marino!
With San Marino not for. The San Marino artist was Senhit featuring Flo Rida
Senhit performed for San Marino, Flo was just featuring her. Either way, i think that's why San Marino got 22nd place instead of Top 10, Senhit could've done better alone
Anxhela being used as the example of "booming voices" is exactly in line with my fantasy.
ABBA won in 1974 not 1976
Good catch.
Video: ABBA won in 1976
1974: am I a joke to you
IT IS NOT LIKE THE IDOL!! 🤦🏻♂️ it is bigger than super bowl and with original songs representing countries! Not to mention is 200million people watching all over the world!
Not a bad report despite the American Idol comparison :P Better coverage than usual from the US media actually.
” one of the most ” lol its the most viewed song contest in the world
Again the American Idol comparison. It had already been around for nearly 50 years before American Idol even existed!!!
First time I ever heard about this. We Americans hardly ever hear anything about what goes on in the rest of the world.
It's the most watched live event. About 200 million people over the world watch it live on tv every year,it's even bigger than the Superbowl. But yeah,americans don't know a single thing besides from their own country. And when american tv channels show info about it,they don't have a clue. This video is full of misinformation.
why
@@mrPp475 yeah
the american education system is so dumb. they only teach you about your own country. i can tell the nationalism is still super strong over there
@@robinwrld0 Wrong, patriotism is strong in the US. There is a difference. We are proud of our country but also recognize its flaws. Also, you want American schools to teach you about Euro vision? We have enough BS to learn as it is. Our education is focused more on science, math, and ofc American history.
Eurovision is ❤️
not even close too American idol even Victoria from måneskin said it’s not
This year Cyprus, Malta, Ukraine my fav's..
❤ eurovision
Where can we watch it!?!
@@SamanthaSweetAnne Apparently in the US it's on Peacock.
Welcome America to Eurovision, tune in, get drunk, & party!
Nah let them stay in their bubble with their brainlessness
@@newsweedge stop living yo life with pure hatred oml 😭
Cmon Netflix! Make us another Eurovision video lmao it was so funny!
That would be great 👍
Europe interpreting America: Europe on Steroids
👍👍😂
The best band in Eurovision history is Genghis Khan trust me they're like the European power rangers
You mean Dschingis Khan?
I agree but the band is called Dschingis Khan since the band is German and Dschingis Khan is the German name for Genghis Khan
"one of the biggest singing competions in the world"
no you are wrong
it is the biggest
That thumbnail definitely got my attention.
What really got your attention Jessica? 🍸🍒🍸
Hello 👋
Somehow I find it funny that the US never fully grasps what and how Eurovision actually is like. Everytime the US media tries to cover Eurovision it's always some half-baked sh*t like this xD
it triggers me every time they compare it to American Idol. Stephen Colbert's parody is a prime example of how clueless they are when it comes to Eurovision.
Not a bad report despite the American Idol comparison :P Better coverage than usual from the US media actually.
Yes i agree it was ok
And they said ABBA won in 1976 even tho it won in 1974
its SOOOOOOOONG COMPETITION for crying out loud!!! geeez!
Netty: "Eurovision isnt the place for politics"
also her song: "equal respect for women" in a country like isreal
Indeed. I bursted out laughing at how hypocritical that statement was.
For you people, the very existence of Israeli people is “political”
@@toottoot75 To correct myself: it would be political anywhere.
Nothing like american idol
This is ICONIC !
I ❤️ Eurovision
2:25 Netta: Politics should be kept out of Eurovision.
Shows Hatari.
This is LIFE
As an American I apologize for whatever the hell this broadcast is
It’s not like American idol and it’s the BIGGEST tv show in the world… not …one of …
Who else clicked the second they saw *Will Ferrell*
#KnowByTheBottomTeeth
Netta makes a song about gender issues
Also Netta: Eurovision isnt the place for politics
There is not even a remote similarity between Eurovision and the American Idol.
But it is always that thing with people from the U.S.A. ... Thinking that the whole world revolves around them.
It’s like American idol on steroids I’m sorry had American idol been airing since the 1950s?
Also... Flo Rida is representing San Marino
BS and unfair.
@@LeonelLAURE ...how?
@@minecraftcody10 he's a US citizen, last time I checked.
@@lovelyheiferdev ok and? He’s still allowed to compete in Eurovision...
@@lovelyheiferdev Celine Dion wasn’t Swiss either and yet she competed.
"Since 1956, nearly 52 countries have participated." So 51? What an odd sentence.
Abba's real win is in 1974. Correct that
Damn this reporter didnt even dare to look more than 5 minutes bout whats Eurovision
ABBA win 1974, not 1976!
that booming voice was from Albania! ❤️
The ABBA won in 1974. Not 1976.
Also Olivia Newton John participated in 1974. Representing UK.
The people are watching, Italians win the Eurovision Song Contest since 1990.
As an Eurovision fan, everything about this makes me so so angry
Whyyy? Im from Europe too, and really look forward to this. I hope we will get to know the states more!
They really had to make this about Israel lol
Netta says Eurovision isn't the place for politics while sending a feminist song at the height of #MeToo movement.
Human rights isn´t politics
Go for the Albanian song 🎶 great great voice #anxhelaperisteri
Sure
Not her comparing to Eurovision to American idol
Serbia 🇷🇸
Hello everyone, this video is good! ❤
I know that. You didn't had to tell me!
@@rick6672 wow really😁 how are you doing today?
Who else didn’t know this was a real thing and thought will Ferrell made it up
No one.. do you live behind the moon?
0:08 EFENDIII😍🇦🇿
Waterloo was released in 1974 not 1976
😴😴
Although ABBA is sooooo underrated...
Steroids??no bad....your cancelled
Ummm...didn't ABBA win in 1974?
"return of eurovision" where did it go?? did americans just not know about it? "like american idol on steroids" i am literally throwing up from that description
Abba won in 1974. Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeee. OMGGGG
EUROCOCAVISION !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eurovision a american idle first thing whats american idle qnd how dare you compare it to eurovision
❤️
And everything is about them again
The biggest contest ...not one of a
Long live Ukraine 🇺🇦
0:55, 1974
Why do Americans always compare it to American Idol?
It's nothing like that! American Idol tries to make new stars, Eurovision already has the stars.
We have localized versions of American Idol in Europe and god, it's awful. Castings are fun, but that's it.
#️⃣1️⃣9️⃣🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
Basically it’s the UEFA Euro contest for gay people?
No
I mean it gets 180 million viewers and there isn't 180 million gay people in Europe, but yes it is a big deal for gay people :P
I know it's really hard to choose which side to really be on both of them seem to be good at times. But please choose the one that protects life from the womb to the grave.
???
🇨🇭🇨🇭🇨🇭❤️❤️❤️
This is a real thing???... I thought it was just a movie lol.
@O Sadly us Americans...well atleast most of us are ignorant.
Search "eurovision semifinal 1 live" on youtube.. Also semifinal 2.
Grand final in about 16 hours time
@O 🐑..a biden voter
@@stevenhoule1866 you fall in the "most" category
Yep, it's been a real contest for over 60 years already. (And I heard that America is getting it's own version as a competition between states next year)
I think I hate eurovision
WTF IS THIS???
pretty sure they just explained
@@Kumbaso okay smart guy
The Eurovision Song Contest
People having fun!
@@makeracistsafraidagain love the name 😆
Diablo, fuego, loca, viva, adrenina just take a spanish word and make song around it...ew!
Hey jackass ADRENALINA is an Italian word in that case.. Senhit is born and raised in Bologna.
Progresist spectacle. It s more about other things than music.
What the hell does 'progresist' mean?
It was literally created in the 50s to promote peace and unity in Europe, congrats you got it, it is indeed about more things than just music.
@@user-xo2ix3pt7k In my language it means what it means. You get it?
@@monwren its not about that. It s about rich countries and the others, favoritism, politically votes. If you are more gay these Days you have more chances. I Thought its about music.
Then stay with nicki minaj, lil nas, ariana grande, the stalion, cardi b.
Looks Satanic
Looks fun tbh
Ok American.
I hear people at the bus stop make up better songs off the top of their heads than any Eurovision song.
And yet here you are commenting on youtube instead of listening to those modern day mozarts
@@uikonimi love that comeback 😂
That is just very rude, and unrealistic because no American take the BUS 😅🤣
american idol came from british simon cowell's idol
