I think that and Croatia 2021 not qualifying even though it placed 10th & 9th in the jury and televote respectfully was what made the EBU make the switch back to the 2009 televote-only qualifying system for 2023. Oh, and maybe 6 countries' juries being disqualified for swapping votes.
Israel 2010, Estonia 2011, Hungary 2012, Moldova 2013, Austria 2017, Belgium 2021. We are about to witness some unforgivable crimes starting from next year. Also in 2013 the actual points were never announced so these changes are not certain.
Plus Georgia 2016. But on the other hand, I would have wanted them to stay in the semi in 2013 (,although the results were never disclosed. And so should have Australia 2017. And on the other hand,bad songs like Finland 2010 and 2015, Armenia 2011 and Poland 2018 would have made it through. And Switzerland 2012, lol, this English is, well, but at least it's memorable.
With a few exceptions, this would have been much worse than the real results, and we would have missed many beautiful and deserving entries in the grand final. Inevitably, it makes me sad to think that this is the system that it's gonna be applied from next year onwards.
That "onwards"... hmmm I doubt it. I think this is just a trick. They are sucrificing 2023 to manipulate the fans. They have of course noticed the fans' rage against the juries but instead of just improving them, they chose violence. :p We'll have so much trash qualifying to the Grand Final ,leaving obviously better songs behind that we'll be beging them to bring the juries back. Without improvements. Just choosing the lesser evil. Cheap and insensible trick. So disappointing.
Focusing more on the stage show than the song quality in the mid 00s was what made juries return in the first place. A good Eurovision final needs a variety of genres, not just oversexed bangers and joke songs
This shows it's always about balance . Sometimes juries save some good entries like Mall, Milim, Wrong place , Midnight Gold and other times the take away some interesting entries like Ingranka, Blackbird. There is always loss and gain. No system is perfect
I'm so sorry for Malta next year as they're Never better in Televoting than jury voting and, almost all of the semis, Malta was in The top 10 of the jury voting, I think 2022 was maybe the 1st Time That Malta wasn't in top 10 in jury voting during the semi I really hate the system without the jury voting because even though I really love a Big part of the songs That would have Been qualified with This system, I realised That WE would have Lost some Amazing songs (Israel 2010, Moldova 2013, Albania 2018 to Say only few of them) Even though some songs That I don't really like wouldn't have go through (like Switzerland 2022 (all of the songs Eliminated for Switzerland in The 2010's were way better than This one (maybe except 2016)) So yes, I hate This system because even though some undeserved NQ would have qualified like Montenegro 2013, Bulgaria 2012, Czechia 2015 or Croatia 2021 some of the really deserved qualifiers would have Been Eliminated like Moldova 2013, Albania 2018, Serbia & Estonia 2011 & Israel 2010 All of This just because of stupid 6 countries' juries who cheated last year
The system will never be perfect. I hate juries in 2014 for what they did to Portugal and Ireland but I love juries because of Moldova 2013, Albania 2018/2021 and also Belgium 2021.
Well, watching this video makes what I had suspected even clearer. Both the televoters AND the juries can give horribly CRAZY results if left alone. So, yes, their combo brings some kind of balance. I suspect though that IF I had to leave one of them out, it would be the televoters. They are horrible a bit more often. I definitely think that leaving the juries out is an awful decision that will leave us fully exposed to an audience that is too often seduced by absolute trash. I think the only true solution to get fair results that "make sense" is not to leave anyone out. Just improve the quality of the juries, as improving the quality of the televoters would be (I guess) far more challenging. By improving their quality I mean, bring juries that are actually doing their job standing for good music. We need them to forget about nationalities, bribery and voting alies, embrace musical diversity, leave their obsession with generic soulless pop aside and allow themselves to be surprised and explore the new ways of being good music that some entries offer every now and then crashing into the short-sighted juries' wall. I have that feeling that most of the voters usually know if the song they support is trashy and won't get really annoyed if the juries boost an obviously better quality (music wise) song instead. Deep inside they'll know it was fair. What's really infuriating is when the juries are overlooking masterpieces like Serbia 2022, Montenegro 2013, Italy 2018. At these points they just leave you ( or me at least :p ) wondering: Is that your idea of standing for quality? Seriously? So, BRING BACK THE JURIES! Just make them more open-minded. Thank you :)
Seems like, over the years, the changes juries would make become less and less significant. With some exceptions, I wouldn't mind the tele results post 2014
We have to admit that some of the ones that would have made it because of the public gave a poor performance. At first I thought it was a good idea, but thanks to this video now I think otherwise...
Absolutely. Also, some joke acts would have made it... But many people don't like to be objective and admit things. They just prefer to blindly accept everything the televote does, even if that weakens the quality of the contest
On the whole I would’ve preferred televote only. So many robbed faves (Denmark 2021, Finland 2010, Croatia 2013) go through and some of the worst ever qualifiers (Bosnia 2010, Denmark 2017) are out.
Am I the only one who's excited for this OG ESC fan power to the people jk P.S. And as someone from Finland with three of the non qualifiers due to judges shown here too aye
Oh, yes. That's why Poland's best result to this day was achieved in a year where only juries voted; and that's also why Poland advanced to the final in 2008 thanks to them. Sure...
@@xander2609 I really don't think you can at all compare Poland's result in 1994 to modern Eurovision. Eurovision is fundamentally different than it used to be
@@n_mcg And I don't think you can tell juries don't like a certain country for no reason. Also, I mentioned 2008, which wasn't so long ago. So what would make juries hate Poland nowadays, as opposed to those years?
This is stupid, specially these past few years 2016, 2018(even though 2018 has a tight semis), 2019, 2021, and 2022 all qualifiers were good. nothing controversial but if it's indeed only televotes, then it's certain some entries were automatically expected to not qualify such as malta, azerbaijan etc. But at least with juries there's a shocking value, sometimes bad but generally good! Base on the video the thing I don't want to change were: Czech (2016) - deserve to qualify Israel (2016) - robbed by televotes, deserves to qualify Georgia (2016) - deserves to qualify, good for them Bosnia, Belarus, and NM - deserves to qualify but not at the expense of the above qualifiers maybe others No comment on 2017 it's a messy year but yeah australia 2017 deserves not to qualify Albania over greece (2018) - much better Netherland (2018) - not really a fan but over Poland? I'm ok with it qualifying Belarus(2019) - Best example of shock value Denmark, Poland and Lithuania (2019) - either of the three were good qualifiers but yeah there's only 10 spots so it is what it is Belgium (2021) - OMG thank God there's juries!!!!! savior of underappreciated masterpiece Croatia (2021) - she qualified to both so why blame juries? Denmark over Albania (2021) - the only time I can agree to an extent Swiss (2022) - yes the song isn't eurovisiony but the performance is great! so I'm not mad it qualify Albania (2022) - my gosh I still can't see the upset about this, her performance was underwhelming!!! I'm fine with her not qualifying Azerbaijan (2022) - and this is why we need juries!!!!! who in the right mind give this a 0 point? Cyprus (2022) - i'm fine with this qualifying but over belgium 2022
Azerbaijan definitely deserved to qualify based on the vocals, but Switzerland? Really? It was awful however I’d still not put Albania through, maybe Austria I hate this new change though, the whole jury-public balance will be lost and we’ll be losing amazing songs (I can’t believe we wouldn’t have Albania 2018 and Belgium 2021 in the final with this system)
Tbh I watched the final the other night and there was a real run of ballads… it kinda made it boring 😬 I think Cyprus and Albania would’ve livened things up
@@James-fl6qk 1000% if Albania closed the semi she would’ve got more jury points… let’s not forget she was 9th with public so would’ve qualified based on that…. Plus the multiple things that went wrong her that shouldn’t of !!
so many of my favorite entries wouldn't have qualified, including albania 2018, my favorite non-winning entry ever... devastating. this year is going to be absolutely terrible, knowing the televote's usually awful taste
I loved Aina Mun Pitää! It's rare we see any punk music in ESC &, as a lover of first & second wave British punk, I really wanted PKN to qualify. I want to see music of all genres competing in the competition, not just pop & ballads. The fact that this would have qualified is a good thing for me, as it shows that lots of other people want more variety too. Do you begrudge 1 punk song amongst the monopoly of pops songs & ballads we seen every single year? It was a classic punk song: short, frantic, honest, straightforward with a strong message. Just because you don't like the genre doesn't make it a bad song. :-)
Yeap! One of many! Finland 2015 is definitely their worst entry I can recall and one of the worst entries ever. Also Armenia's boom boom was bottom3 material. Generally the televoters are crazy far more often and more dramaticly than the juries. And without going bacķ to the far past, an audience so massively thinking that the best songs of 2022 were from Ukraine and MOLDOVA (FFS!!!) is so clearly not to be trusted!
Azerbaijan would have stayed in the semi 4 times in total (2014,2015,2018,2022) with the new system instead of 1 (2018) Juries really saved them! And Cyprus last year wouldn't have broken their qualification streak they had from 2015
I’d trust the televote alone now more than I would’ve a couple years ago. There’s always gonna be a few exceptions. Like I do agree with Albania over Greece in 2018. But Portugal should’ve made it over Azerbaijan in 2014. Ireland should’ve made it over Malta in 2014. Poland should’ve made it over Belarus in 2019. And Cyprus (or any country) should’ve made it over Azerbaijan in 2022.
My preferences 2010 SF 1: None SF 2: Israel & Sweden 2011 SF 1: Idk, that SF was just awful SF 2: Rockefeller Street (thanks juries. For once!) 2012 SF 1: I like both Hungary and Switzerland SF 2: Malta & Bulgaria I guess (Ukraine should have NQd. How TF Portugal and Slovenia were completely ignored by both groups I'll never understand though) 2013 SF 1: Moldova SF 2: Switzerland (Armenia is awful) 2014 SF 1: Azerbaijan (controversial opinion) SF 2: Ireland 2015 SF 1: Hungary, duh SF 2: none 2016 SF 1: Czech Republic SF 2: none (WTH were juries thinking with Georgia?) 2017 SF 1: Finland SF 2: SWITZERLAND!!! (my winner of 2017, so I'll be forever mad here) 2018 SF 1: Greece SF 2: Poland 2019 SF 1: Belarus SF 2: Denmark 2021 SF 1: CROATIA (though juries can't be exactly blamed here, it was also among their qualifiers) SF 2: Albania 2022 SF 1: Albania SF 2: Cyprus Especially in later years, I prefered the televoting. Two of my winners qualifying with televoting makes this change hurt slightly, since it comes too late for them.
I find it ironic that you used that Belarusian protest over a nationalistic, pro-Lukashenko, propaganda song. Also cultural appropriation for Netherlands 2012 And Estonia 2017 was a vocal wreck anyway
![All Winners of Eurovision Song Contest [1956-2023]](/img/n.gif)
Daily reminder Azerbaijan 2022 was the first country to qualify for the finals without receiving a single point from the televote

To be fair Blackbird was borderline even for televote. In the final it would have got 0 points probably
I'm about 70% convinced the rule change is because of a certain scandal during semi final 2
Poland 2019 was genuinely meant to qualify under the current system, a czech juror accidentally ranked backwards
This is gonna be a mess
Not Midnight Gold, Mall and Karma😡🔪
Albania will be smoked from now on 💀 considering they lost their diaspora votes from North Macedonia and Montenegro, they won’t see the final in years
Its war
This stupid change will seal the end of vocal ballads in Eurovision and open the door to just buzzing entries... sad times
I'm so sorry for Malta next year as they're Never better in Televoting than jury voting and, almost all of the semis, Malta was in The top 10 of the jury voting, I think 2022 was maybe the 1st Time That Malta wasn't in top 10 in jury voting during the semi

Why? Greece does well with the televote when sending good songs.
@@mpofc The televote put 2018 in and that was an awful stage performance
@@DANEZESC I do think that they could have made a better stage performance that year. They should have hired Fokas Evangelinos.
Still bitter Poland didn't make the finals in 2019 and this confirming their robbery says a lot
POLAND 🇵🇱
My preferences
2010
SF 1: None
SF 2: Israel & Sweden
2011
SF 1: Idk, that SF was just awful
SF 2: Rockefeller Street (thanks juries. For once!)
2012
SF 1: I like both Hungary and Switzerland
SF 2: Malta & Bulgaria I guess (Ukraine should have NQd. How TF Portugal and Slovenia were completely ignored by both groups I'll never understand though)
2013
SF 1: Moldova
SF 2: Switzerland (Armenia is awful)
2014
SF 1: Azerbaijan (controversial opinion)
SF 2: Ireland
2015
SF 1: Hungary, duh
SF 2: none
2016
SF 1: Czech Republic
SF 2: none (WTH were juries thinking with Georgia?)
2017
SF 1: Finland
SF 2: SWITZERLAND!!! (my winner of 2017, so I'll be forever mad here)
2018
SF 1: Greece
SF 2: Poland
2019
SF 1: Belarus
SF 2: Denmark
2021
SF 1: CROATIA (though juries can't be exactly blamed here, it was also among their qualifiers)
SF 2: Albania
2022
SF 1: Albania
SF 2: Cyprus
Especially in later years, I prefered the televoting. Two of my winners qualifying with televoting makes this change hurt slightly, since it comes too late for them.
I find it ironic that you used that Belarusian protest over a nationalistic, pro-Lukashenko, propaganda song.
Also cultural appropriation for Netherlands 2012
And Estonia 2017 was a vocal wreck anyway
