Now he does, or at least he may try and learn about it :P Also, considering how pop the ESC universe is and how Fado is far removed from it, it's not really surprising… Unless you are very into world music or have a degree in ethnomusicology, knowing all traditional genres in Europe doesn't come off naturally. And Fado is so traditional and specific that I don't remember we ever having sent a Fado to the ESC, as that would be a next-level risky move (Spain does it and is doing it this year with an almost Saeta-like, Flamenco song, so there's that). We did have Fado singers at FdC before, but it's really so niche that I doubt one will ever win. It had to be something very modern and out there, like those performances by Mariza (one of the famous Portuguese Fado singers who, along with rock singer Marisa Liz, led Mimicat to get the stage name she has, by the way), and even then it would still be seen as too traditional by the general public. That's the thing with the Portuguese public and even the national jury; we're always halfway between that Swedish (and otherwise Europop) strategy of just sending plastic stuff in English, and the more risky moves of the likes of Spain and Eastern European countries, with their sometimes more traditional sounds. What we consistently end up with are timeless and eclectic classics *in Portuguese* (or at least heavily bilingual ones) which get a bit of a cult following. IMHO, it's a strategy which works nicely at the ESC, and even if we're not constantly winning this thing, at least we've been getting decent results and some praise out of it.
It's because for English native speakers it's very hard to get the FÁdu pronunciation... They do very well know FÁdow... well in the end it's just "Fado" (of course they all know it, they go on masses to Portugal every summer)... But hey it's not ignorance, just the accent... pronunciation... (even Brazilians have difficulties with the Portuguese from Portugal and the planet prefers to learn Brazilian Portuguese because it sounds much easier) Pains me to see some comments here calling it ignorant.. clearly only Portuguese that do not dominate English would say that... Wait until you say German words to a German with an English or Portuguese accent hahaha... None will ever know what you're talking about either... 😂 Try your Portuguese pronunciation for Schlager... I'd be surprised if people in Germany will know what you mean... 😂😂 If you wanna be understood with your Portuguese accent say: "Xlága" ...just a tip 🙃 Many of my English friends here in Germany already quit talking in German, because they could, they know all the words, lived here a long time, but they have such a strong accent, that Germans don't understand it and prefer it just in English to make it easier for everyone.. 😜 Yet you do have a point... just like you should be able to know Schlager (by the way.. it means Pimba music 😂), they should also be able to know Fado 😉😉 And that is why we should in print our accent in foreign minds... Just like Mimicat does, even if she speaks perfect English! So that, Stück für Stück we all get it :) C'est l'europe après tout non ? 💋
Oh, no, now I do not only hope, that she's gonna qualify, but also that her competitors are still gonna like her, if they've seen this. Don't let artists guess on other artists, I think, instead of living by the United By Music motto, you're living by the Divided By Guessing Games motto. And of course, the one guessiing had to be a female participant, you're probably not gonna do the same thing with male artists.
He doesn't really listen and is very rigid when the conversation veers off into spontaneity. I remember Nikki Tutorials doing this and you could tell she was more of an attentive listener and conversationalist. Perhaps because she wasn't a pro- interviewer. Rylan is used to this stuff and it shows. Going through the motions.
This was the interview? about animals? I mean I love my two dogs but PLEASE... The Dutch invented this kind of scene and the Brits distroy it, what a shame.
yeah, very sad, such a disrespect what they are doing with the dutch, they invented the interviews and uk are ruining it.... I wonder what we call to the "time spent speaking and questioning the singers" before 2021, if "interviews" were invented in 2021, what was the name given in israel or lisbon?
SO THAT'S WHY! All of those (10) years of indecision with her song ("All I am is a big confusion", she says) led to her submitting a demo 😮... and then had to wrap it up in just a month! Because it feels that is actually something gone completely haywire, an hyperbole, an exaggeration of something meant to be funny but it turned into a ridiculous (and cheap) bad taste of a mash of words about symptoms. I'm already depressed with her sad collection of words called song (lol). Here's its translation. Find it by yourself: [Verse 1] Oh heart, you won't leave me alone You don't give me peace, you don't make me capable I have my head and throat in a knot That doesn't undo, and not even so you take pity on me I feel dizzy, getting worse every day I no longer know things that I knew by heart My pulse shot up to almost one thousand I'm crazy, completely senile [Chorus] The chest burning, the mouth dry, I don't know What shall I do to you? Love, that doesn't work for me Because it seems like I'm not me anymore Oh heart, oh heart Tell me if you're mine (Hey) [Verse 2] The hours go by and sleep doesn't come I hear the owls and the neighbors too I lost my mind and over there it stayed Somebody get me out of this state I'm in The doctor says there's nothing to do "Case hopeless", I saw him writing I'm lost in another dimension All I am is a big confusion [Chorus] The chest burning, the mouth dry, I don't know What shall I do to you? Love, that doesn't work for me Because it seems like I'm not me anymore Oh heart, oh heart, oh heart Tell me if you're mine [Instrumental Pause] [Chorus] The chest burning, the mouth dry, I don't know What shall I do to you? Love, that doesn't work for me Because it seems like I'm not me anymore Oh heart, oh heart Oh heart, oh heart Tell me if you're mine (Hey)
You're watching the wrong video. This one is about the amazing Mimicat. ❤ But you gave me a fair idea.🤔 I'm going start writing Mimicat's name on videos of the singers you mentioned. It's fair, isn't it. 😏
She's the cutest - perfect entry from Portugal this year❤
Mimicat is the most original 2023 artist.
Complete package ❤
Love you, girl ❤ 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
i haven’t laughed more at one of these interviews than this one. Mimicat is so humble and sweet yet also a good sense of humour
She is perfect!! A great artist and a lovely person ❤❤❤
NOTHING is perfect.
@@Angel.T-340
She's someone very special. ❤
@@g-ps -perfect- special ✔
Mimitcat is amazing! 🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹
A mimicat a melhor embaixadora de todos os tempos na eurovisão,merece a final, sem duvida.
Adoro Portugal e esse ano adorei Mimicat, pra mim ela é a melhor reprezentadora do país dos ultimos 10 anos. Saudações de Cabo Verde🇨🇻❤️
How can he not know Fado? :x
Ignorance

Thrue 🤣🤣🤣 ignorant
@@TiagoAlves-fz9qp actually 2008, 2012 are also very fado-esque, even conan osiris in some way

Queen! The best! 👑❤️🇵🇹
She is the cutest!
You both mix so wel and natural 😍😍🙏🙏👍👍
Mimicat ❤❤
Mimicat = Amazing ❤
Boa sorte irmãos 🥰
Women so beatiful bro
If it is pet detective, should he not give her clues? Allow some questions? As presented, it is more pet guessing.
Our queen❤
Mothercat ❤️🇵🇹
Mimicat a Voz ❤ Viva a Portugal.
Queen ❤❤❤
A Mimicat tem uma rara simpatia... e "Ai Coracão" é uma óptima e comovente canção
The Queen Cat 🇵🇹
Mimicat ❤️🇵🇹
Mimicat 😍🫠
What a game. I adore him, his personality is amazing. And Mimicat, is fantastic this well. You made me laughed. Thank you
I think this would be a lot more fun if it's much more of a "match the pet to the artist" with only the artists having pets included in the choices.
The best song! Goooo Mimicat!!!!
One word: charisma.
La amo demasiado
💃🇵🇹💃
Romania, Theodor Andrei 🇹🇩❤️😊
When is coming MIMICAT'S turn to ask her questions ?
We need to get more heterosexual men in this eurovision thing... for the sake of equality.
Ooooh
Bahaha
Bit abrasive there Rylan....
Does she have the same earrings as Blanca Paloma or do they share them?? I feel like i've seen them both with those same dove/bird earrings
Maybe those earrings are available in stores.
how can you not know what FADO IS?? jesus christ
Mimicat is amazing and lovely as always, but this host is not that good.. I prefer the other host way more
Rylan slays u don’t know what u’re saying 🙄
Oh, no, now I do not only hope, that she's gonna qualify, but also that her competitors are still gonna like her, if they've seen this. Don't let artists guess on other artists, I think, instead of living by the United By Music motto, you're living by the Divided By Guessing Games motto. And of course, the one guessiing had to be a female participant, you're probably not gonna do the same thing with male artists.
Rylan has nothing to say to them. As a Brit, can’t stand him or Scott mills at all 😭
As a non brit I love his interviews and games. There are like a 100 other boring traditional interviews people can watch with every artist.
It’s actually not about him or actually you. It’s about getting to know mimicat better and I think he did a great job
the other interviewer they have is much, much better, don't know why they can't just have her do all of them
He doesn't really listen and is very rigid when the conversation veers off into spontaneity. I remember Nikki Tutorials doing this and you could tell she was more of an attentive listener and conversationalist. Perhaps because she wasn't a pro- interviewer. Rylan is used to this stuff and it shows. Going through the motions.
Rylan, you are not funny and sometimes you are also antipatic to your guests. NikkieTutorials please be back
This was the interview? about animals? I mean I love my two dogs but PLEASE... The Dutch invented this kind of scene and the Brits distroy it, what a shame.

@@anabela_.7501 Honey I was talking about this specific segment, if you like good for you, you want what? An applause? 👏🏻 LOL grow up.
I thought these interviews were too 'gimmicky' with the games. It was like a segment on some show on Channel4
Why in the world did you choose Dino Alves as the stylist? He destroyed Conan Osiris and he did the same with Mimicat! 🙄🇵🇹
Conans designer was not Dino Alves
SO THAT'S WHY! All of those (10) years of indecision with her song ("All I am is a big confusion", she says) led to her submitting a demo 😮... and then had to wrap it up in just a month!

I no longer know things that I knew by heart
My pulse shot up to almost one thousand
I'm crazy, completely senile
[Chorus]
The chest burning, the mouth dry, I don't know
What shall I do to you? Love, that doesn't work for me
Because it seems like I'm not me anymore
Oh heart, oh heart
Tell me if you're mine (Hey)
[Verse 2]
The hours go by and sleep doesn't come
I hear the owls and the neighbors too
I lost my mind and over there it stayed
Somebody get me out of this state I'm in
The doctor says there's nothing to do
"Case hopeless", I saw him writing
I'm lost in another dimension
All I am is a big confusion
[Chorus]
The chest burning, the mouth dry, I don't know
What shall I do to you? Love, that doesn't work for me
Because it seems like I'm not me anymore
Oh heart, oh heart, oh heart
Tell me if you're mine
[Instrumental Pause]
[Chorus]

Oh heart, oh heart
Oh heart, oh heart
Tell me if you're mine (Hey)

This is Portugal's interview..... why you people promote your favorite artist on others artists thread passes my understanding. Get a life.
