Your pronunciation is incredible 😍

Also, according to the the Spanish commentator that year they said "My bad ass spinning for you".

Ukraine and Russia still got along back then even during the revolution. My best friend is a pro-Russian Ukrainian girl, her sister was even more pro-Russian than her but she became extremely anti-Russian with the war. That song was, as far as I remember, an homage of Ruslana to her great grand father who had been a Cossack, an ethnic group spattered between Russia and Ukraine with their own rules, communities, and system of government, characterized also by men and women being equal when no society was like that, etc. We were at the home of my godfather back in that Eurovision, it was one of the longest, it ended at 02:00 in the morning and both my father, me, and my godfather wanted them to win, but the girls didn't, guess why :P PS: I am pro-Russian, but that song oh god oh fuck.

As a 14 year old boy with my hormones at full, I loved it when watching it live. If you can, react to the original version in Russian, песня #1

Dobra stara vremena🙏

Came back to watch this reaction one more time. There's an interesting fact about the band that performed this song. On the members of the band (Matthías Matthíasson, also known as Matti Matt, he was a singing voice for Magnus Scheving character Sportacus (Íþróttaálfurinn) in the original "LazyTown" plays ("Áfram Latibær!" and "Glanni Glæpur í Latabæ") had his own song that qualified to the final of the national selection. The song is called "Eldgos" ("Eruption"). ua-cam.com/video/Jsf_3LOPYSM/v-deo.html - there's his national final performance. He had to change the costume before he could perform the other song in the final (he performed 4th out of 7 in the national final, Sjonni's Friends were performing 7th out of 7).

The instrument is a Keyharp ❤

I wonder why you didn't react to the german song?

I agree it's a real good one ! So underrated

Your pronounciation was great by the way.

Thank you for the warning! Your reaction is more tolerable than everyone else that hates it. Oh you just said Henri is cute that’s probably why 😂😂

Placed 4th with 111 points. Should've won easily. The lyrics tugs my heart strings. The golden era of Eurovision was pre 2000 encompassing the 70s 80s and 90s. I remember ABBA winning the contest in 1974 and the rest is history.

👋🇱🇻❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️

That song , it may be the most strong one that Greece , sent to Eurovision, back in Düssendorf in 2011. 7th place, not bad. Stereo Mike and Loucas Yiorkas, gave their soul on stage. Especialy the melodic singing parts of Loucas were fire. Fantastic modern, mix of hip hop and laiko, greek zeimbekiko dance in that 9/8 , characteristic time signature.

Your accent is spectacular. Mother gave birth to a hatchling 🐣 You slayed that. 💥

You can also look up what "kesäpanot nyt"(was used on last Finnish line) means in Finnish. I ain´t gonna tell you now cause we might have children around us lol.

Big LOVE from Latvia 🇱🇻❤️❤️❤️

As a portuguese we were just like: Fuck it! Let's just expose the irony of everyday working-class regular🤘❤🤟 people participating in one of the greatest music-shows in the world (at the time still comming out of the 2008 Recession) and force the elite to listen to it! Loved it!🤣

Fire!!!🔥

You're almost spot on. The condensed message would be that no one is born a saint, our actions determine our destination, with emphasis on responsibility... I hope this made some sense? And "Diva" is not only historical, it actually means "woman" in old slavic. In Ukrainian, with the exception of "Diva Maria", we usually use this word to describe successful business women or spoiled rich wives, or just women that know their price, sort of speak.. It has limited uses but its meaning holds strong presence in our language. And our word for "girl" is still "div_chyna". We are aware of the term "drag queen" though.

Was not my winner. It took me time to get this joke. Did not open up to me immediattly. The joke is hhw Finnish gzys dress. Nany still look like Widfows 95man. The 90s technobeat and the lyrixs from songs those days. This year lked Germany and Sweden but for Finlands sake as aa country I hooe this does well. We beed happy things. Life should not always be so serious.

What the hell!! What is your native language? This is almost perfect slovenian! Respect! You have a sub from me.
