In order to understand all the references you have to know and have seen all the entries that they are referring to. That would make it even much funnier. And in my opinion the very best interval act still is Riverdance. Whenever i watch that on RUclips I still get a little emotional. I remember that I saw it in 1994, and that I couldn’t believe my eyes and my ears. They got a standing ovation!
I do think that the context of the year was pretty important. It was the first time that a performance like this happened in eurovision with the visual effects and all, so that really hit us all. I remember watching this performance and being blown away; I watch it now and it's not as surprising as it was back then, but in 2015 it was definitely the most original! (plus mans' charisma is always awesome)
@@LovingLipgloss yes! I actually remember also how sergey lazarev's performances were a bit like "okay I enjoy this but I've seen the original with mans" lmao this performance will always have a really special place!
Yes back then it was a very surprising performance with those special effects. And the effects came together with the theme of the song (unity, empowerment), unlike Sergey's special effects later which came off as desperate gimmicks and didn't seem to have anything to do with what he was singing 😂
Måns is a legend of Eurovision, not only for winning but because he makes a cameo almost every year. He always finds a way to slide into the show. Except this year. My theory is that everything started to fall apart when they forgot to take him out of the deep freeze.
Well, there was a photo of him this year, in the interval act when they say something like "this is what you see if you google sweden" and they show a photo of Mans winning. So he was there somehow :)
Well, he did perform (as part of a fake boyband) in the Swedish selection show, as well as being a co-commentator for Sweden. I would have liked to have seen him again, though.
And in case you’re wondering this is the guy that is in the “Love Love Peace Peace” interval act from 2016 and it’s just the greatest interval act ever!! A lot of Eurovision Legends is in the act!!❤️
Måns was in Swedish Idol back in 2005 and ended up 4th I think. Soon after that he won Swedish "Dancing with the stars". He hosted the biggest Swedish summer tv-show Allsång på Skansen several years, participated three times in Melodifestivalen (the show where Sweden decide which song to send to Eurovision) and third time he won it all. Then he co-hosted Eurovision in Sweden the year after and became legendary. He is also a member of the jury in Swedish Masked singer. And a lot more. So, multi talented guy indeed!
You should watch "Love, love, peace, peace" An interval act of Eurovisión 2016. He and Petra Mede were the host of the show, and they did a nice performance.
It didn't age the best but it was definitely something new that year and it ticks all the boxes. Great charismatic handsome singer/performer and a good song with a good message and nice staging. It made total sense it won that year. Imo 2015 is the best year of eurovision and I don't think he even was in my top 5 but I get why he won and well deserved. Mans is very loved by the general public and he is kinda a Eurovision mascot if u wanna say so xd
Personally I'm still salty that Italy didn't win that year with Il Volo 😅 This was good too but Italy was just next level (and it's still one of my all time favorites)
there is a song about bridges, but there is ZERO tie to a bridge on the stage.. please get your facts straight.. it is SPECIFICLALY a "Haptic eye", that is the clear statement from the design team.
You should look at his reaction when it was clear that he had won. It's a pure expression of disbelief followed by absolute joy, and it's so heart warming.
I fell in love with him, after this. This is when I got back into Eurovision and adopted him as my husband 😂 The only person to come close, since, is Käärijä. Luckily, Måns married a British model and actress. So, he moved to the UK and travels home, for work. He even co-presented the UK's selection show, years ago.
Oh you adopted him, too? 😂 Mats is just gorgeous and while I have no clue what kind of person is.. in my mind, he seems like the kind of guy everybody gets along with. Drinking buddy-type. And Kääriya has his own brand of magnetism. Very attractive men for different reasons😅
@@roddo1955 He does seem like a lovely guy. Though, has been prone to making some mistakes, in the past. He's funny. They're both gorgeous and adorable
@@Craigy2818 @roddo1955 If you want to see Måns not taking himself seriously you have to see this song with him and Per Andersson from Swedish game show Så ska det låta!: ruclips.net/video/rletYAdBndM/видео.htmlsi=VWK_I8vTU2lflQLv
As a swede I was first surprised that we won. I was like "naah, we won already in 2012, it's too early", but then we did. Now I understand cause he stood out with the use of visuals. After he won everyone started using tech like that
He was the winner of 2015 ((jury (1st) supported him more than televote (3rd)). Now you've seen 4th place (Belgium) and Sweden (1st), soon you'll see Latvia (6th) - thank you to everyone who voted for it - if you liked lots of red in this one, there will be plenty in Latvian performance. :) I can't wait for you to see it - your first taste of any music from Latvia (my country). Actually that year both Latvia (2nd in juries, 8th in televote) and Sweden (1st in juries, 3rd in televote) got more love from juries than from televote...
This was, in fact, the winner of that year (2015), although Italy won the televote, so maybe you would like that one better. (Italy was also my personal winner that year). But Mans is a great winner, really. He is still so involved in Eurovision and he has done several interval acts, and also hosted the show sometimes after his win, so he is very well known by eurofans and he is one of the most loved eurovision winners.
we dont talk about the absolute slag of a woman who took second.. Brilliant vocalist, but as we learned later, a truly awful human being,. a mindless stooge for Putin.. think Trump Maga mindless drone. So tragic to have a beautiful body and voice inhabited by a person who sees nothing wrong with the mass murder, torture, kidnapping, etc in Ukraine.
Fun fact, Måns is a judge on Sweden's version of Masked Singer and one season his wife was under one of the masks and he had no idea. His reaktion to the reveal is hilarious!
Hi guys, if you are looking for another random list of Eurovision songs to react to I have a few absolutely classic masterpieces I think you both would enjoy : 1) 2013 : NORWAY (I feed you my love) by Margaret Berger 2) 2014 : SWEDEN (undo) by Sanna Nielsen 3) 2014 : FINLAND (something better) by Soft Engine 4) 2015 : LATVIA (love injected) by Aminata 5) 2015 : NORWAY (A monster like me) by Morland and Debrah Scarlet 2 others you guys will like as abit of an extra if you ever come around to it are: - 2016 : ARMENIA (love wave) by Iveta Mukuchyan - 2017 : BELGIUM (city lights) by Blanche These songs are my absolute fave and I always come back to them so hope you enjoy
Agree with everything people have said about the interval act of 2016. Also - if you want to see this staging in all its glory, check out Love Injected by Latvia. Unbelievable song but the lighting was epic as well. One of my all time favourite Eurovision entries.
Italy's Il Volo was robbed that year! You should react to them, probably you'd also like them, as they won the televote in a landslide but, because of juries, in the end they came 3rd.
I'm a metalhead 52yo. But once a year I go Eurovision. Måns Zellmerlöf, is my biggest guilty pleasure besides Justin Timberlake😂😂😂😂😂. Common, no one can not smile when this mf smiles. Disgusting 🎉
Watch one of Jon Henrik Fjällgren performance's on Melodifestivalen if you liked Keiino with its jojk 🥰 it's a swedish guy jojking instead of performing with original singing 🥰
never really liked the song. But it is crazy to think that this was so impressive then because of the act. it was the first time that kind of projection was used. He is now a legacy and a meme in eurovision. 2016 was one of the best shows in sweden with him hosting and Petra. But i still think Loic should have won
If Sweden didn't win last year he would be this year in Melodifestivalen but he decided to slip this year because he didn't believe Sweden would win twice in a row, so he is coming back next year because he wants to win twice Eurovision
Comments about him singing well are kind of funny because like Loreen in the finals his voice didn't hold up well over Eurovision and this is for him definitely not the best he's ever sounded.
Serbia 2015 is THE BEST PARTY SONG EUROVISION EVER HAD. Also its a viggest suprise and music change ever. Its sad noone recomends it to yall Serbia isnt much popular vut that is something else
Most overrated Eurovision song ever 😬 was a bit borderline plagiarism both the song and the animation. Sure he can sing well but it just isn’t that original …
This only won because it was the first time someone tried innovative staging like this and it stood out as impressive. The song was not a big hit and people have pretty much forgotten it.
Well, it's still in the top 10 most played Eurovision winners on S p o t i f y 1. Duncan Laurence "Arcade" 1 220 million 2. Loreen "Tattoo" 564 million 3. Måneskin "Zitti e buoni" 489 million 4. Alexander Rybak "Fairytale" 385 million 5. ABBA "Waterloo" 352 million 6. Loreen "Euphoria" 286 million 7. Måns Zelmerlöw "Heroes" 160 million 8. Netta "Toy" 120 million 9. Lena "Satellite" 89 million 10. Lordi "Hard Rock Hallelujah" 62 million
"He doesn't take himself too serious." Oh yeah, wait until you get to see Love Love Peace Peace. It will happen eventually.
Can't wait for their reaction. 😂😂😂
They were going to make a eurovision intervals week I think. So I hope Love love peace peace its there.
Love Love Peace Peace is a must

He was busy during ESC
@@Craigy2818 - and it was GLORIOUS. Björnzone was great. :D
I think, within the fandom it's more seen as annoying rather than legendary that he shows up everywhere.
And in case you’re wondering this is the guy that is in the “Love Love Peace Peace” interval act from 2016 and it’s just the greatest interval act ever!! A lot of Eurovision Legends is in the act!!❤️
Yeah he hosted along with Petra Mede, who hosted the 2024 Eurovision.
I think the 2024 interval act from Petra is equally amazing!
It's tied for me with Switch act when they sang each other songs, but once again Mans is there haha
He won that year
9:16 who's going to tell them 😅😅😅

One of the most successful Eurovision songs. In polish radio this song was big hit. You can still hear it from time to time.
You should watch "Love, love, peace, peace" An interval act of Eurovisión 2016. He and Petra Mede were the host of the show, and they did a nice performance.
They will. We voted for this reaction last night.
So glad. Would love to see them do the other Swedish interact songs, We Just Love Eurovision Too Much and That’s Eurovision.
Yes!!! Måns Zelmerlöw won for us in 2015🇸🇪 I just loved his performance that year!! His so kind and super talented, I’m happy you liked it!!❤️
@@elina0301 va?? Va det såå länge sen? 😅

2015 was so good. So many good performances, songs that I remember and really love.
TOP 1 THIS TOP IS AMINATA -LATVIA
It didn't age the best but it was definitely something new that year and it ticks all the boxes. Great charismatic handsome singer/performer and a good song with a good message and nice staging. It made total sense it won that year. Imo 2015 is the best year of eurovision and I don't think he even was in my top 5 but I get why he won and well deserved.

There was something special about this song. It still hits nearly 10 years later and is beloved and referenced by the community all the time.
Jamala 1944 please
Personally I'm still salty that Italy didn't win that year with Il Volo 😅 This was good too but Italy was just next level (and it's still one of my all time favorites)
Agreed. This only won because it’s Sweden. The Swedish arrogance in Eurovision needs to be stamped out
Yeah. Even then he wasn't my fav but especially now, I have like 4 songs i like more 😂
The stage meant to mimic a bridge as the 2015 slogan was “ building bridges” there is even a song about it on the opening of the grand final in 2015
there is a song about bridges, but there is ZERO tie to a bridge on the stage.. please get your facts straight.. it is SPECIFICLALY a "Haptic eye", that is the clear statement from the design team.
You should look at his reaction when it was clear that he had won. It's a pure expression of disbelief followed by absolute joy, and it's so heart warming.
Omg. Please react to Latvia and Estonia 2015 too. Amazing year. 😍
I fell in love with him, after this. This is when I got back into Eurovision and adopted him as my husband 😂 The only person to come close, since, is Käärijä.
Luckily, Måns married a British model and actress. So, he moved to the UK and travels home, for work. He even co-presented the UK's selection show, years ago.
Oh you adopted him, too? 😂 Mats is just gorgeous and while I have no clue what kind of person is.. in my mind, he seems like the kind of guy everybody gets along with. Drinking buddy-type. And Kääriya has his own brand of magnetism. Very attractive men for different reasons😅

My all time Swedish winner ❤ greetings from Finland 😅
best one evr in eurovision and månz is awsome and funny in all he does
Fun fact, Måns is a judge on Sweden's version of Masked Singer and one season his wife was under one of the masks and he had no idea. His reaktion to the reveal is hilarious!
One of my absolute favourite eurovision entries ❤
Meh for me. This year the staging won. In 2015 the top 10 was solid, Australia, Italy, Russia, Belgium.
I feel same about this song
Måns, while a star in Sweden, has a lot of a "Guy next door" vibe.
Would love to see you guys watch conchita wurst- rise like a phenix

2 others you guys will like as abit of an extra if you ever come around to it are:

We do have swedish country music both originals and a boat load of swedish translated covers and well Rednex with songs like Cotton Eye Joe.
Måns is basically Sweden's it boy. All moms love him xD But I'd say Darin is our pop king
Måns was vety good. My favourite that year was Latvia, though.
I'm a metalhead 52yo. But once a year I go Eurovision. Måns Zellmerlöf, is my biggest guilty pleasure besides Justin Timberlake😂😂😂😂😂. Common, no one can not smile when this mf smiles. Disgusting 🎉
the song isn't the most memorable one but other than the staging, i think måns has this very charismatic energy that helped him win
😎👍
His beauty overpass me
i need them to see eurovision 2009 and 2011 stages
Welcome to Swedens music world!
Now listen to Tommy Johansson! 🇸🇪
Watch one of Jon Henrik Fjällgren performance's on Melodifestivalen if you liked Keiino with its jojk 🥰 it's a swedish guy jojking instead of performing with original singing 🥰
Umm damned with faint praise.
There is a ESC term called "the Måns Zelmerlöw effect" to describe ESC singers who are charismatic performers like him. He is the OG really.
You need to react to 2015 as i told you. This year is the best for me so far.
never really liked the song. But it is crazy to think that this was so impressive then because of the act. it was the first time that kind of projection was used.

I'm wondering about your # 1 but it's o.k. the Song's are sometimes epic and sometimes a little bit boring but also good!
Pls react to Il Volo same year 2015. While I like Heroes, Italy won the televote that year, and it was epic!
It’s probably too late to suggest but Dami Im sound of silence Eurovision performance
They have done one already! 😁 ruclips.net/video/2tMFjV3fG7E/видео.htmlsi=bHNdLoVKlbian5QA
