The Eurovision Song Contest is back!
Eurovision: You Decide is back for 2019 with a brand new format! Eurovision superfan Mel Giedroyc and the winner of the Eurovision Song Contest 2015, Mans Zelmerlow, host live from MediaCityUK in Salford as the show comes from the north west of England for the very first time.
This 90-minute Eurovision extravaganza gives viewers the opportunity to vote for the song they want to represent the UK at the biggest music competition in the world.
In an exciting format change, each of the three competing songs is performed in two different ways, by two different acts. A celebrity panel and viewers at home make the decision on which song represents the UK at the sixty-fourth Eurovision Song Contest, which will be held in Tel Aviv, Israel, in May 2019. The show features special performances and surprises.

As much flack as they get, BBC actually did great with this! Bringing Måns on was a stroke of genius.
ITS almost like they didnt cover up for paedos...almost
The BBC put on decent shows - imagination costs nothing after all. Look at 98!
I agree
.he's so funny and talented
This guy is great! A real entertainer!
@@MrSpookyLover people are still talking about that! over here in america almost all tv networks cover up paedos like kevin spacey. he was being covered up by 17 different networks in america and bill cosby was being covered up by 24. the bbc are decent compared to what happens in america.
This is not really related but can both Mans and Petra host ESC forever already?😍
If enough vote for us every year this could be arranged ;)
I don’t mind Petra, Måns and Mel trio tbh
I hate Petra Mede, she is awful.
Ruins her own jokes if they now are jokes.
@@MathiasEggimann pretty sure the hoast dont decide what to say. But just "deliver" what the writers come up with. But sure. You are entitled to not like her way of delivering lines :)
I say that every year, they need to host forever
Sweden: Måns is ours
“I’m 100% on your side”
Britain: IS HE NOW
Lewis McGown *2 minutes later* wears Swedish underwear
He lives in the UK now anyway
@@laurapugh7944 he has a British wife aswell
I told my son "1997 was the last time the UK won Eurovision."
"You mean 'The latest', dad?"
"Nope. The last."
Ahaha this joke works well in Swedish, but no so much in English 😁
@@326Alan Yes, I told him in Swedish as you have guest. But what can I do? 😉
@@OlssonDaniel I guess you have 55 likes from fellow bilingual Scandinavians, Daniel 😅 so it’s going okay hahaha
@@326Alan är jag dum? För jag fattar inte hur skämtet inte funkar på engelska
@@charliecederblad8900 nej, du är inte dum - inte alls! :) engelska är mitt modersmål, svenska är ditt (antar jag)!
På engelska säger man oftast bara "last" när man skulle säga "senast" på svenska.
På svenska finns det någon pedantisk skillnad mellan "sist" och "senast": "sist" (enligt pedanter) betyder att det inte ska bli mer av något därefter, medan "senast" betyder något som "nyast". "Last" på engelska brukar användas utan att implicera slutgiltighet 😁
It looks like I'm watching Melodifestivalen in English.
This is a good thing! I love watching Melodifestivalen every year, just wish I understood the language 😂
pity the uks chances wont be as good as with Melodifestivalen. could this be the year that bucks the trend ?deserves top 15.
A swedish audience would never clap along with the song. This is British thing to clap for everything; when the aeroplane lands, when their food arrives, when the lights go out.
Jakob Söderkulla I think you’ll find the aeroplane clapping is more synonymous with the Italians!
@@jaydeebee3656 I am Swedish and I would clap😏, and isn't it Swedish that we're having this conversation in English😂😂
I think a shout out is needed for Edward af Sillén who wrote and created this performance. He’s the writer for Melfest, wrote the scripts for Eurovision 2013 and 2016 in Sweden (including the iconic Love Love Peace Peace) and as far as I’m aware the scripts for the recent additions of You Decide, and it shows. He’s truly a master script writer for these type of entertainment shows and an absolute genius when it comes to musical pieces with his wit and creativity (you can tell if Edward is in charge).
I had the honour of meeting him last year at You Decide as he came to chat with some of the fans and was the most humble man; asking what we thought of the show and whether it was funny. The BBC would be very smart to try and get him to work for them on a regular basis (I know he’s very well respected but those who know him and is friends with Graham Norton), but he is pretty loyal to SVT so I can’t see that happening.
ANYWAY, Edward (as well as Mans) did a great job with this and deserves the recognition!!
I wanted to put this out there as well everybody is rightfully praising Måns, Edward deserves credit for making the show entertaining amongst the bland and uninspiring songs the BBC chose (nothing against the talented artists, but the songs they’ve were given were awful...the BBC needs to sort themselves out)
@@nashathegleek I completely agree with everything you've just said and this doesn't surprise me. I've already had two rants elsewhere on UA-cam tonight about the BBC's lack of interest so I'm not going to rant on again but suffice to say the BBC really do need to sort themselves out or the EBU needs to give either Sky or ITV the rights - a broadcaster who'll put the effort into picking a decent song.
I do think Michael Rice was the best of the bunch but realistically, we all know in advance that we're going to get hammered the minute Europe starts voting because no one knows him (not even the Brits) while we all know in advance that Russia will either win (or come top 5) because they're going to be represented by a major worldwide star even if the song he sings ends up being absolute shit.
Anyway once again, well done to Mans and the equally talented Mel Giedroyc plus a big thank you to Edward af Sillén for at least making the pre-selection enjoyable.
AND beyond all these great accomplishments there's the fact that Edward is Brazilian. As far as I know, he was born in the state of Santa Catarina and adopted by a Swedish family when he was quite young, but at least I can have some pride being an ESC fan from Brazil.
Arthur Mezacasa Oh I didn’t know that, but that’s a really interesting back story!
He also tends to do the live comments of the Eurovision finals, even the Oscars. And the fact he knows a lot about Eurovision means he can easily write something like this. But I doubt, he living in Sweden, he could deliver a full show with the same comedic touch as he does with Melodifestivalen, for the simple fact that he lives in Sweden, not the UK, and therefore will not have much to spin jokes around - except anything related to Eurovision. But there are plenty of great comedic writers in the UK who easily is of the same standard as Edvard, but who also have the inside knowledge of British society, current affairs and popular culture to deliver something similar to what Edvard delivers for Melodifestivalen, but better adapted to a UK audience and setting.
The one you really should study and copy, because he is the guy who has been in charge of Melodifestivalen for donkeys years now, an era when Sweden has performed better than any other nation in that competition, is Christer Bjørkman. He is the guy in charge of everything from selecting presenters, and writers like Edvard, to deciding the running order of the songs, and also have a say in how they are selected and presented. Melodifestivalen is a huge success mainly for two reasons: Bjørkman`s dedication and enthusiasm for the competition - and for the fact the acts that do well in Eurovision will secure their artists gigs for the coming summer, thanks to the many summer festivals around Sweden.
The problem for the UK is that it is not the major players on the music scene who takes part. They have to much to lose, so the UK keeps sending either hasbeens or new comers, and the songs are not penned by the Cathy Dennis` and colleagues either, but far more unknown and less merited song writers.
Had it not been for the big 5 rule, UK most likely would have been knocked out of the semis every single year, with the exception of Blue and the Andrew Lloyd Webber song that came 5th the year Norway won with Alexander Rybak and Fairytale, over the last 10-15 years - and Blue had international help and a solid fanbase to help them, and Andrew Lloyd Webber is Andrew Lloyd Webber.
"Let's remember a time when Eurovision was cheap to host and the BBC wanted to win."
I mean, SVT, which until 2019 was also funded by a TV tax, still tries...
@@RBenjo21 it's still funded by tax money
Eter Puralis But I believe it’s “normal” government spending now, rather than a TV tax.
@@RBenjo21 SVT is still funded by a TV tax, it is just baked in with all your other taxes instead of its own bill every quarter.
The one thing the UK did right with their national selection this year. Mans Zelmerlow.
MarsMeLow MÅNS
If UK send Måns, maybe they will win 😂😂😂
Mmm no, televote will destroy they
We could send Adele and we'd still lose. It's political. We are the biggest and best exporters of talent in Europe nonetheless. Besides, we've sent way better people than that Mans guy.
@@alisharosey7948 it's not political ! Should I remind that Albania, Serbia and Slovenia were very low in ESC 2018 odds, they qualified and Albania ended up 11th ! Everyone can win with a good song ! Portugal won in 2017, Poland won in JESC 2018...
@@trhrvs it is political. Nearly all of the countries vote for the countries closest to them or who they have strong political ties with. You'd be naive to think it's based on musical talent judging by the previous winners. Some of the best acts last year like from France came at the very bottom. Name me some Eurovision winners who have had success afterwards and gone on to tour the United Kingdom, Europe and America, other than Abba from 1970s who were the only real talent. I'll wait. Watching Eurovision in the UK is a big joke and considered a comedy to most of us. The music is terrible and cheesy and ridiculous and clearly not based on true talent but politics. We just listen to Graham Norton laughing at the whole pointlessness of it. The UK even voted for a really cheesy Europe-style act to represent us last year as an experiment (Surie) and she still came last and even got attacked on stage.
@@alisharosey7948 it's not our fault that UK is always bad in Eurovision since 2012(2014 and 2017 were good)... 😂😂😂😂
2:16 "You might have heard of them. Brotherhood of Måns!"
Måns, Petra Mede and Edward af Sillén - a masterful Swedish trio of explosive talent, charisma and Eurovision fun!
dont forget the undead CHrister BJorkman... he has more power than Jan Ola Sand, I swear...
4:32 *OFF YOU POP*
The most British thing I have heard from a non Brit hahaha
@skeleton tiger The script for this sketch was by Edward af Sillén (Eurovision 2013, 2016).
This is very true
I think Måns is getting British, slowly transitioning...
Don't think so. If you see a person with out at least one necessary article of outer clothing in Britain, chances are they're not or they're force to for the embarrassment.
Still a swedish flag, so he's still ours. Btw, good luck UK. BR from Sweden
You´ll find that Swedish are very proud to be Swedish. Much more to be proud of right now ;-) Why would they want to be anything else?
@@Erik_Emer His accent has changed
@@bobbyboo1478 it is American.
The UK preselection is now more entertaining than the actual Eurovision thanks to Måns and Mel. They're an absolutely fantastic double act each year. Hats off to Måns for his energetic reprise of these Eurovision classics and getting Cheryl, Jay, Mike and Katrina along was the icing on the cake.
We even picked a half decent entry this year! If the UK were to win the entire thing, I propose Måns and Mel present the 2020 Eurovision from London.
To be fair, most years the only entertainment derived from the Eurovision hosts is second-hand embarrassment.
Well this comment is rather awkward now that we know the result...
@@Zhellybelly yep. Also I always thought having Phillip and Holly host would be a barrel of laughs
Zhellybelly this is more proof that the U.K. could send the worlds best artist and they’d come in the bottom 3. Like, the U.K. song last year was alright. Nothing special, nothing bad. And got fewer points that Germany’s caterwauling... and then even had some points taken off us.
But that's the thing in Eurovision the worst thing you can be is bland, you can be terrible in a fun way and someone will love it but you can't be forgetable
WAIT WHAT THEY STOLE MÅNS FROM US???
2015, 2012, 1999, 2014, 2011... The Swedish language seems to be very popular with the European crowds.
Hi is Swedish man from Skåne
We've kidnapped him! He makes everything that little bit better!! ;)
@@Graciekate910 Here you go, you did right, he has done everything it can do already in Sweden, so I wish that Swedish his luck where he wants to work and do some good.
Måns it's actually part of the brexit treaty, as long as he's there brexit won't happen. #ConspirationTheory
That was a great medley. You've got to admire Mans' energy and humor, and cheers to Jay, Cheryl, Mike and Katrina for joining in the fun. I was happy that Mans and Mel did a little Bardo - I love "One Step Further." Also, here's to the 50th anniversary of Lulu's co-victory with "Boom Bang a Bang!"
Kevin Lawhorn katrina still sounds fab. We need a song like that to restore our esc fortunes
The swedes and english just mix well, same kind of humor :) - greetings from sweden
Yes and don't forget the Aussies and Swedes have affection for each other 🇦🇺🇸🇪
Mans saying "off you pop" just made my day
Yeesh.. Is there ANYTHING this boy can't do? Has to be one of the most broadly successful winners ever: winning, hosting Melodifestivalen, hosting ESC, hosting You Decide, appearing at numerous national finals, Guesting at ESC 2019, taking part in Mello Hall Of Fame Show, and of course being a enw husband and father throw in for good measure. And he gets to look like that.. NOT FAIR DAMMIT
I think it's really fair. We get to enjoy it all without doing anything :-D
@@Ketutar I meant it's not fair that one man has all that, and I have ... well not a lot :P LOL
I was trully surprised when he didn't appear in "Eurovision: The Story Of Fire Saga"...
for who doesnt know, the winner of this (Michael Rice with his song Bigger than Us) came 26th/last in the grand final.
This guy is the greatest host Eurovision has ever had. He's so convincing, if he went into politics he'd be the perfect demagogue: you'd unquestionally buy everything he says if he delivered it like this.
Dieser Måns ist ja so was von charmant und gewandt! 🇸🇪 Unglaublich! 💛💙
Bringing Måns and Edward af Sillen onboard to the UK team was a stroke of genius. Great show.
Mans and Mel are both so multi-talented. Skit was incredible. Bravo to the producers involved in it!
And this is why we love Mans #BrotherhoodOfMans
The Brotherhood of Måns. Love it.
The answers obvious. Give Mans British Citizenship
That's not needed for him to compete in ESC for GB
Mans is british now
@@Ikajo I second this because Gina G represented us in the 90s and she was an Aussie
No he is ours Im swedish
@@thomasfellows7541 Yep, and Katrina Leskanich is American.
I love Mans presenting with Mel, he’s such a lovely person and I’m glad he came back to present for us again!
Absolutely BRILLIANT...at last the UK is praising its past entries, good and bad! Mans has done more prior to winning that I proudly own, he has injected the energy of Melodifesivalen (with Mel) into our mockery, this should be turned in to a show of its own!! Hi to the guys in the Union Jack suits...I remember you from Eurovision Network days!
can you imagine the results if BBC actually tried something like Melodifestivalen on any scale? #WeCanDream
Loreen Wil Win Again In2023
Send Mans, I guarantee you the first place 😂❤
Nice try, he belongs to Sweden
@@EterPuralis oh I know, I was just joking
What the!? Måns is co-hosting "Eurovision: You decide"!? How have I missed this? Melodifestivalen has four hosts this year and it's nowhere near as good as this was. Quality over quantity and Måns sure is a top quality presenter and performer.
the hosts were funny, just not the actual contestants
Can't we just have Måns host Eurovision regardless of where it is? Pretty please??
I’m so glad måns is back in my life and Eurovision
He has become an icon for Eurovision
It's lovely that Mans is still involved with Eurovision. Together with Petra Mede, the First Lady of Eurovision (there are two of these; Verka Serduchka is the other), he's really grown as a presenter and host. I'd really love Sweden to win again (and match our 7-times record) just to see Mans and Petra present again.
Time for that dream of yours!
The BBC need to get Måns full time job. He’d be great on the one show
I was not a big fan of Mans back in 2015 but after 2016 .. He became a Eurovision legend😍
Can we just keep Mans in the UK forever. He's amazing!
He lives here - his wife's British!
@@davidkgame This is very good news!
I saw this live on TV that evening and was howling. Mans Zelmerlöw is off his trolley. Legend! Tough luck, Sweden, Mans is OURS now! 🇬🇧🇬🇧
Mans - one half of the best duo to ever host Eurovision. He's an asset to any show.
Imagine his 2016 co-host Petra Mede being present; that would've doubled the fun!
she did something with Graham Norton, didnt she?
Shawn Putnam Yeah, they co-hosted Eurovision: Greatest Hits in 2015!
This is amazing in so many ways
What a brilliant show!! Måns is awesome. He needs to do it always and the Sem-Finals too with Mel. Loved it, still do!! Great to see the BBC get something right for a change. :)
I'm literally in love with him
The performance that this prodigious man created to the Britain is flawlessly incredible up to present
I love him. My childhood. He visited my country many times. I love him!!!
This Is incredible Absolutely Amazing. He is So gorgeous
He’s amazing
Katrina and the Waves!!! I love this so much!
"Puppet on a String" (1967); "Congratulations" (1968); "Save Your Kisses For Me" (1976); "Making Your Mind Up" (1981); "One Step Further" (1982); "Better The Devil You Know" (1993); "Ooh Aah... Just A Little Bit" (1996); "Cry Baby" (2003); "Love Shine A Light" (1997).
What a great presentation by Mans he is ? was the best presenter unto now
Mans and she are amazing at hosting together, they bring it really funny especially the underpants of mans were funny
Well... Here's to the best part of the uk national final... Thank you Måns 😍
Måns is great whereever he shows up.
I'd be watching Måns all day long
What have I just WATCHED?! WOW that was brilliant!! Never seen it but Mans was excellent as were the Fizz and Katrina!
This was sooooo good!
Omg omg thats so precious.
Mans is AWESOME!!
Måns is perfect. Period.
Mans is Amazing!❤️❤️
the crowd clapping on 1 and 3 hurts my soul
Mans should be hosting The Oscars! This mans talented!
Just send mans, may uk will be in top 10 hHa
Gordon Ramsay maybe with a song full of swear words.
Sorry, måns belongs to sweden 💪🏼
@@nathaliejohanssonwahlstrom6741 not anymore!
I love this guy!!!❤️❤️❤️
This is why I love Mans
I love Måns so much
Måns is beautiful 😻
Have us Brits basically adopted Måns as ours?
Well, he lives in London, so it's more Måns who has adopted the UK. That is, unless Brexit forces him out...
yes.
@@realmenchangediapers Pardon my ignorance but why would the Brexit force him out?
What does the Brexit says?
Well, it's due to the EU that Swedish citizens can live and work in the UK without needing any special permits.
If you can't get Britain to win Eurovision, make a Eurovision winner become British.
It's the perfect plan.
love the songs in this performance
I love this Man!
Love love love this!!!
What an absolute babe
Shame about the song.
Very entertaining......Måns is brilliant!!
*I love that man!* 😊💙
The perfect man
What a shoman! Great review of some of the best English songs. “Love shine a light” will be a anthem forever
UK 1983 Sweet Dreams - I'm Never Giving Up, is one of my favorite UK entries.
This was really fun and Måns is great.
Mans and Mel are hilarious..love the moves on ooh arh just a little bit
This is great, mans is so entertaining :D
Okay I’m in love.
Props to the BBC for spelling his name right
I am a simple girl. I see Mans, I click.
Måns knows how to show respect!
wow! Katrina sounds amazing!!
Mans i love you so much
Ei kiitos. Hän ei ole hyvä ihmise.
ooh actual Suomi. dont see that much.
mans is fantastic
its official, this dude is the greatest man alive
The BBC forgetting to turn on the other microphones until partway through Making Your Mind Up is such a good illustration of how much care they take with Eurovision. Though to be fair, the whole thing (much as I love it) is a bit shambolic: Måns struggling to button his fly, Mel falling over trying to stand up, Jay forgetting the lyrics... I would've liked to see more of Mel dancing to One Step Further, though! She was having such a good time.
I am so proud to say I am a fizz fan!!
Give Måns his own Tv Show, he is amazing entertainer.
this video hits different in 2022
Don't ya just love these two so funny
You gotta love Mans
Mans is overrated
I prefer Måns
@@AlfredJ fair enough!
I absolutely love British humour! This was great. Bringing Mans in was genius.
I don't understand what is going on, but this was simply amazing.
l forgot how much l loved this. Just so fun
If Måns competed for uk they would definitely win
BRA DÄR MÅNS!!!
This was so great & hilarious, probably the best past of the show! :D
