This song was a turning point in Eurovision history. This song closed a chapter and started an era. Before this song, dancing divas were always undervalued by juries regardless of how popular they were with public. This song and this performance proved a concept how to do dancing diva staging. And followed my many successful interpretations of it like Chanel and Noa Kirel. Ps video effects are allowed. You already watched many performances with video effects and pre recorded videos within performances.

The song and performance are great but to say it was a turning points is kinda wrong. We had dancing divas since early 2000 with Ivi Adamou - La La Love, Helena paparizou - My number one, Ruslana - Wild dances, Eleftheria Eleftheriou - Aphrodisiac etc...

They were way underrated by juries.

The only thing Eleni did was dance which inspired two acts. So, Loreen created a new era for Eurovision, Eleni did not.

Eleni brought something to Eurovision that had been forgotten for so many years. Something about a diva that can ACTUALLY sing and dance at the same time and doing it on her level, with that confidence and this amount of choreography. She really kicked down the door for all the women that came after her and we‘ll forever be grateful for that.

Eurovision is afraid to make winners entries like Cyprus 🇨🇾 and I don't know why but instead they prefer chickens and trash. Get well soon Eurovision.

What makes this impressive is that the vocals were completely live. Pre-recorded backing vocals were introduced in 2021, which I'm still ambivalent about.

They were introduced because of the safety issues with rona and tbh - it's like musical instruments, back up singers aren't really necessary for the main even, especially as main contestant is still required to sing. On the other side of things, we do have no-lyrics songs or songs that were sung in sign language. It's really only an issue, when someone actually tries to abuse the system. Which thankfully haven't happened yet.

This was the song that turned around Cyprus's fortunes at Eurovision, and Eleni was the performer who started the raft of girl bop clones in the coming years after 'Fuego' dropped! But this one will always be the one for me that blew me away the most. Everyone literally slept on this, right up until that first semifinal performance....then she shot up the odds and everyone went crazy! If you get a chance to, please react to: *Hatari - "Hatrid Mun Sigra" (Industrial Punk Techno Rock) *Dami Im - "Sound Of Silence" (Emotional pop) *Keiino - "Spirit In The Sky" (Cultural Pop) *Voyager - "Promise" (Rock) And for something WACKO: *Ping Pong - *Be Happy" 🤣🤣🤣

Eleni didn't start the raft of girl pop performers for crying out loud. Did she elevate the performance bar in this genre at Eurovision and showed what is possible ? Absolutely.

@@funkerman86 I hear you, but you're missing the point entirely. The only similarity in the artists you mention is that they are females who dance. The unique point of Eleni's performance was that is was sensual and oozed sex appeal. It was hyper feminine. The artists you mentioned were cutesy or just delivered a standard performance. Eleni's performance was the first to incorporate a sexy routine over a slinky sounding song. As you said, Chanel then took it and elevated that further, then Noa Kirel took that even further, but the bottom line is, Eleni began the trend. Yes there have been many other solo female performers who have had some choreography, but none of it was hyper feminised and 'sexy'. That's my point. And I'm speaking solely about the ESC. We all know the Britneys and the Nicole Sherzingers were doing it years before, but nobody was doing that at Eurovision, so Eleni deserves her flowers.

​@@aygusti Of course they're Cypriots. There is no dispute. It doesn't make them any less Greek in our eyes. This isn't a Russia/Ukraine dispute, independence has never been in question, though weariness is understandable given current political climates. Greece isn't nearly as irredentist as such statements may (again, in this current political climate, understandably) lead you to believe. We've just fiercly proud of Cyprus, because we share the same blood, the same language, the same struggles. However, freedom is enough of a mutual cultural value to disavow any self-respecting Greek as only viewing Cyprus as a mere extension of our country. They are their own sovereigns. They are as much ours as we are theirs. I'd sooner question your understanding of your friends' opinions than I would Greek-Cypriot relations. But then again, I see why you might disagree. Perhaps further discussion are in order.

This is a great list. i agree with all of them

That year made us friends with the world of Eleni. She is the real Eupopean Fuego. Hope you'll make a reaction series to her talent on Greek and Cypriot stages as well as all around Europe.

Hey guys, amazing reactions as always!!! We already have all 37 songs for eurovision 2024, and i cant wait for you to react to them. And btw a person from Cyprus is called a cypriot.

The host country in 2018 was Portugal. They were aiming to lower costs of running the event so they opted to not have any LED screens on the stage, just lighting. So some countries utilised on screen graphics to varying degrees of success, Cyprus was probably one of the better ones

So people from Cyprus are called Cypriots. We speak Greek and as you correctly noticed we use the Greek alphabet. We are basically Greeks but we are an autonomous, sovereign country island with its own flag etc. However, we share the same culture, cuisine, religion, traditions, and national anthem. A fun fact is that throughout the history of Eurovision, Greece and Cyprus exchanged 12 points, and this created a lot of controversy in the Eurovision fandom lol. But that is simply because we listen to the same artists (the majority of whom are Greek artists as Cyprus has only 1.2 million people so the music scene here is tiny) so we obviously feel more connected to each other's songs. Love your videos guys, can believe another Eurovision week is over. Can't wait for your reaction to this year's songs!!!

This perfomance is from the Eurovision in Portugal. Portugal, it's not rich and so it saved a lot of money adding video effects live to most of the performances. Also Eurovision as always been more of a TV show, than a live show, even without the video effect.

Ok guys, so I think it’s time for you to discover the great Dimash! Here’s my top 5 for you: 5. SOS 4. Across endless dimensions OST 3. Stranger 2. The story of one sky 3. When I’ve got you Dimash is the best vocalist in the world right now, I promise you’ve never seen anyone like him before. Besides he has a huge army of fans across the world and you will gain a lot of new subs really fast. Love from Ukraine 👋

It is indeed a video effect, as was a smoke effect earlier, but they are allowed (though used quite sparingly in general). Eurovision is above all an audiovisual product, and while it seems to be immensely fun to attend live, performances are primarily designed for viewing via a television screen, so she shouldn't really be chastised for using them per se.

This was an incredible performance!

La Diva Foureira🔥

Eurovision is made to be enjoyed from home, therefore some effects are not visible for the audience

"RAYE" WEEK 1. Oscar Winning Tears (Live at the Royal Albert Hall) 2. Escapism (music video) 3. Hard Out Here (music video) 4. Black Mascara (music video) 5. Ice Cream Man (music video)

I keep still hearing this song in random places (bars, malls, radio etc) time to time. That's how you know it's a real Eurovision hit.

i can especially recommend Equinox Bones from Bulgaria

And for the next Eurovision week I won't provide a list because there are sooooo many but I think you do need to see Iceland 2019 as others have posted. And why not, before Eurovision 2024, look at some of this year's entries? 5 for you (this for me is one of the strongest years ever so will try to go diverse in genres but will stick to songs we have already available live): 1. Bambie Thug - Ireland 2. Silvester Belt - Lithuania 3. Joost Klein - Netherlands (there's a live version just released) but I'll give a back-up sixth option as this hasn't been performed in a final and selected that way. 4. 5Miinust & Puulup - Estonia 5. Baby Lasagne - Croatia 6. Windows 95 Man - Finland There are so many other great options on stage that won national finals - it's less than 2 months away guys! Others - Italy - Angelina Mango, Spain - Nebulossa, San Marino - Megara, Ukraine - Jerry Heil + Alyona Alyona, Serbia - Teya Dora, Norway - Gate (one of my personal favs), Denmark - Saba, Germany - Isaak, Portugal - Iolanda, Latvia - Dons, Sweden - Marcus and Martinus. There are others but I think those probably represent the broad range. And there are amazing songs that we don't have live performances of yet, but have great music videos such as Switzerland, Belgium, Greece, Armenia, Cyprus (not as good as Eleni but similar :D ), Georgia, UK, Poland, Australia (didgeridooooo!), Slovenia, Austria....agh, so many.

Yes we are Cypriots, you are correct! We share same history, language and tradition with Greece but we are an individual country.

So lemme give you some break and introduce you to Junior Eurovision. A contest introduced to give some more spotlight to the youngest singers and child-targeted genres and music. Like original Eurovision it started quirky and kinda amateur, but thesw days it's really competing in quality with adult competition (I blame Poland tbh, for going to hard at one point). Some additional information - Junior ESC allows for kids between like 9-14. And there have been winners and performers form JESC who later on competed in adult contest (people probably will recommend them at some point). Also before introduction of JESC rules for ESC didn't fully specify the ages. Making it possible for Sandra Kim at age 13 (which she actually lied to the producers that she was 15 to be allowed). There will never be a younger winner, due to modern rules that push younger kids for the junior competition. So my recommendations - you probably could go by year like you did with ESC (Eurovision site has lists of all contestants and their placements btw. for both competitions). But I would also give you a nice group of five winners that in my opinion are worth checking for multiple factors (you could check last five ones, but competition really has been dominated by France and Poland lately, lol). 1. "Cœur" - Zoé Clauzure (2023/last winner). 2. "Superhero" - Viki Gabor (2019 winner). 3. "Not My Soul" - Destiny Chukunyere (2015 winner). 4. "Bzz.." - Bzikebi (2008 winner). 5. "Ti si moja prva ljubav" - Dino Jelusić (2003/first winner). There are obviously also a lot of other really good songs, like "Antes muerta que sencilla" from 2004. "Nebo" from 2012. "Tu primo grande amore" from 2014. "Anyone I Want to Be" from 2018 or "Qami Qami" from 2021. And if you ever decide to check full competitions at some point - just to get a vibe. From Junior Eurovision, 2020 is definitely the year to check out. It was one of the best events in the whole franchise and actually the only Eurovision event in 2020, because adult one has cancelled for safety reasons (junior is usually few months after so there was more ways to secure event). Whole thing was made inside studio in Warsaw, but also in half of the other competing countries, that didn't decide to travel to Poland (as everyone was allowed to film in their own places, for safety of the kids). Each country was given strict stage rules to make it all fair for everyone, but it also allowed for a lot of freedom never seen before - especially when it comes to stage graphics/CGI. It was especially fun to watch, because Poland won in 2018 and 2019, and both wins were first time Poland ever won in the whole franchise. Which made them go all out for their final hosting opportunity. With both Polish winners slaying a performance with 2019's adult winner - Duncan Laurence. Some additional cool stuff about Junior Eurovision - they kept the old rule from main contest of songs having to be at least 50% in the native languages. Probably for fairness reasons (not everyone can speak English at that age) and for some cultural heritage recognition. This lead to rare languages to be used. Like Irish Gaelic (the Irish broadcaster uses that language so they go with it instead of Irish English). Suprisingly - Dutch (Netherlands rarely use it in adult ESC). Welsh (before UK as whole decided to come back) and Kazakh - as Kazakhstan was allowed to compete, which they did between 2018-2022).

Sandro Cavazza #1 Avicii Trubute Concert - Wake me up (Live Vocals by Aloe Blacc)

You must react to the Eurovision Flag Parade 2023!!! Is pretty good!!!

Eurovision Song Contest is a tv show so video effects are allowed guys! Its not the first time that is used! And yes, the audience could see it but on the screens! 😊 Cyprus 🇨🇾 is a small island in the Mediterranean sea very close to Greece, Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Israel and Egypt. Yes, we are called Cypriots! 😊 There is a mixture of civilization in the island, I can confirm that! The official languages here is Greek and Turkish! We are in the European Union! Thank you Weekly Top 5 for commenting! 😊 ❤ If you ever come to Cyprus you will find a lot of things to do and visit! From ancient places to modern life and good food!

I wasn't a fan of this song at the time but later it has grown on me and earned it's place on my "best from eurovision"-playlist.

We need Junior Eurovision week guys! Maléna Qami Qami 2021 Viki Gabor SuperHero (2019) Nare Dance (2022) France 2023 Laura Barcelona 2009

Nationality-wise Cypriots are Greek. It's similar to let's say Austria and Germany, same culture, language, same people, but had to become 2 different countries, though many times they tried to unite.

Love your reactions :) you guys are awesome. Please make a reaction to Dimash Kudaibergen. He’s my favorite singer, he’s from Kasachstan. People say he’s the best singer alive with an extraordinary wide vocal range. 🙏🏼🙏🏼 Would love to see you guys react to him. S.O.S. / Olimpico / Diva Dance / sinful passion / unforgettable day are some of my favorites… Much love from Germany ❤️

Y'all need to react to Iceland's entry in eurovision 2018 (or 19 can't exactly remember the date) hatari - hatrio mun sigra. You won't be dissapointed its one of my favs

The fire effect was from the screen wall behind the singer

Cyprus is known for giving all their 12 poins to Greece in Eurovision every year
