Ikr! That's the best thing about this song I feel, because it means that 6 years later we can all still keep it in our playlists without it feeling like a throwback. I don't even think Sweden in 2015 is still relevant today!
And the hype it generated upon its selection was well managed, something Italy couldn't manage to do in 2017 and I'm afraid the same will happen to Israel this year.
also this song is one that you remember, how many others songs do you remember of the those that have won. the only one i also remember is Ruslana with wild dances from Ukraine in 2004
yeah i hear you on Italy. I didn't like it throughout 2017 season cuz it was just too overhyped and rather than just being a guy and his song (like Loreen is "a girl and hear song"), they just kept throwing gimmick on top of gimmick on top of gimmick (the guy in the gorilla costume! the dance! random multi-colored light figures in the back! etc) and Francesco has the complete inability to rein it in, even just a bit...his performances got very sloppy.
Euphoria is great, but it's nowhere near as iconic or successful as Italy's 1958 Nel blu dipinto di blu (Volare) which reached No.1 even on Billboard Hot 100 Charts and won two Grammy Awards (Record of the year and Song of the year) at the very first Grammy Awards back in 1958.
This one was amazing in every possible way. The staging, the singing, the performance, the song and the artist. In my opinion the best entry in Eurovision history.
Nah its Dana International .. becouse of her Eurovision was not borring anymore .. back in the old days, Eurovision was just a show now its a big Festival ...
As I said before, Sweden has the best performances almost every year. I love Sweden, love Jake's face and I'm waiting for new reactions. I send rays of goodness to all of you guys! Peace and love from Ukraine!
The song received the highest number of maximum (12) points of any entry in the contest's history with eighteen countries giving the song their top marks.
Still one of the best of the best of the best performances in Eurovision for the last 15 years that I watch Eurovision. Jake, I knew you will love it, that's why I and the majority of folks out there recommended you to watch it☺️ You facial reactions videos are priceless☺️
I’m so late to this reaction but I remember watching this in hospital at 11 years old (grown up on Eurovision) and was the highlight of my stay! I literally claimed the games room to watch Eurovision haha
Wase Miriam it was the same when she first performed it in the Swedish contest. I remember thinking that there was no point in seeing the other acts. She would be better than all of them. I was right, since she got to represent Sweden and none of the other acts were even close to hers. 🙂
If you liked her, you should defo see her performance at Melodifestivalen - Paper Light (Higher) :) She's pure gold, I myself have been following her closely since she won and you can easily tell how creative her mind is ❤️
I think many will agree on it. I would personally ask for reacting to Sweden 1974 and Switzerland 1988 winning performances. Why these ones? You’ll get crazy to know WHO won these years. I’m sure you know these artists. But please don’t spoil it and don’t check WHO were representing their countries these years! It should be your reaction filmed to learn this!
Yep, it all has to allign: song, singer and setting :-). What I found striking about that performance and the way it was lit was the fact that you basically only see her outline, you hardly get to see her face. In any other situation I would say it is to hide that someone isn’t singing live but in this case it actually made you focus on her voice and song more intently and you hear how great both are.
2012 is one of my favourite times WATCHING Eurovision. I stayed at a youth hostel and the TV-room was crammed that night. Seing the show with people from so many different countries was a pure delight. Two of my other favourites from 2012 are Albania, Rona Nishliu-Suus and Estonia, Ott Lepland-Kuula. Sweden has been very good at framing their performances and chosing their camera angles in rescent years. Their entry for 2018 is clearly very different from 2012 in both mood and performance, but with the same type of framing. In a sea of wide shots it really has the potential to draw people in. Thanks for the reaction and see you in Malmö 2013!
Was so proud when Loreen and Månz win their years. People with tolerant hearts, show the diversity of sweden, clean but cool staging. Greetings from sweden.
2012 was probably the best ESC year to date. So many good songs. I'm happy Loreen won, but you should also check out Albania's song Suus from that year. One of the strongest song performances ever!
Great reaction man, feels real and sincere, so you got yourself a new sub here (I am from Sweden, but I dont sub just cause you praise the music from here, you did a great reaction, so thats why.)
You should seriously react to more music of Loreen. She has two amazing albums out there. The first one is called "Heal" of which Euphoria is the lead single so you can expect a lot more of that prime swedish pop fantasy. It has a dark in spiritual overall vibe. The second album, called "Ride" came out just last year and is more indie/rock/grunge/synth pop. It's so different but so. good. Also her stand-alone single "Statements" is such an iconic song
If you are so impressed by dancing and singing at the same time, you should check Ruslana “Wild dances” 2004). But please react to Ukraine 2007, you will know how insane the performances at Eurovision can be, and still we love them. Great reactions the face of yours has, keep going!))
Thank you for reacting to this! Loreen is still one of my fave winner ♥ If you've got the time (and especially the will), could i request a few songs too? my requests would be: 1) Italy 2013: Marco Mengoni - L'essenziale (it came 7th) ua-cam.com/video/S8oaxDV1q6o/v-deo.html 2) Italy 2015: Il Volo - Grande Amore (it came 3rd) ua-cam.com/video/1TOMqZV2jA8/v-deo.html i noticed you've not reacted to any italian entry yet, apart from the 2018 one, so i'm curious ^^ (don't expect swedish or russian type of staging tho, because Italy keeps it simple). Have a great day! xo
Woooow Loreen is the QUEEN! Her music is pure art! Check out her "statements" performance also from last year, it's truly awesome and I'm still mad it didnt make it..
you are ESC fan and I just can't believe that your reaction video is honest on that day and that video..... everyone who watch anything about ESC now's about euphoria
Love it, it's always gonna be one of the best winning performances on Eurovision for me ever. I have my Eurovision winners top(in do not consider outsiders): 1) Loreen - Euphoria; 2) Maria Sherifovich - Molitva; 4) Jamala - 1944 3) Chonchita - Rise like a phoenix; 5) Salvador Sobral - Amar Pelos Dois; 6) Duncan Laurence - Arcade; 7) Netta - Toy) With love from Ukraine))
After Eurovision you could watch semi final recaps of different years and predict which 10 got through and then look at the names of the actual qualifiers after that.
Euphoria is one of my favorite eurovision songs ever! Actually all the songs she makes are great! Please react to The Netherlands at the eurovision in 2014. The Common Linnets.
la mejor de la historia de eurovision lorenn es unica y euphoria es y sera siempre la mejor cancion de eurovision lorenn es maravillosa y merecia ganar
I feel this act would still easily win today. The song still holds up and scenography was just beyond amazing. It really stood out that year.
Ikr! That's the best thing about this song I feel, because it means that 6 years later we can all still keep it in our playlists without it feeling like a throwback. I don't even think Sweden in 2015 is still relevant today!

also this song is one that you remember, how many others songs do you remember of the those that have won. the only one i also remember is Ruslana with wild dances from Ukraine in 2004
i still love this song and hear it from time to time.it's one of my fav of all time
yeah i hear you on Italy. I didn't like it throughout 2017 season cuz it was just too overhyped and rather than just being a guy and his song (like Loreen is "a girl and hear song"), they just kept throwing gimmick on top of gimmick on top of gimmick (the guy in the gorilla costume! the dance! random multi-colored light figures in the back! etc) and Francesco has the complete inability to rein it in, even just a bit...his performances got very sloppy.
The most iconic song in Eurovision history, no matter what, an anthem.
agree with you love this song still listen it
Agree, Eurovision never had anything greater since
ossielmdn Totally agree!! The Queen/Alien of Eurovision! It made history, that's for sure! 👌✌️🤙🤘💪🔥💎
It's an awesome song, I still listen to it today but..........when I think Eurovision I think "Waterloo"
Euphoria is great, but it's nowhere near as iconic or successful as Italy's 1958 Nel blu dipinto di blu (Volare) which reached No.1 even on Billboard Hot 100 Charts and won two Grammy Awards (Record of the year and Song of the year) at the very first Grammy Awards back in 1958.
Euphoria was absolutely a deserving winner.
No way. Pastora Soler (Spain) should have won. She was amaizing!
She is absolutely mesmerizing. The way she moves, the way she sings, love it, love it.
It's considered by many to be the best winter ever!!!
arkoudaki34 winter is coming
Eugenio Volkov slol
This years winter was even colder
Eugenio Volkov Rasmussen is shaking
Define "Many"
This one was amazing in every possible way. The staging, the singing, the performance, the song and the artist. In my opinion the best entry in Eurovision history.
She is the Queen of Eurovision!❤🔥
and she will always be
But our Verka is a Queen 😔😔😔
no just no :)
alexander rybak is the king
Nah its Dana International .. becouse of her Eurovision was not borring anymore .. back in the old days, Eurovision was just a show now its a big Festival ...
As I said before, Sweden has the best performances almost every year. I love Sweden, love Jake's face and I'm waiting for new reactions. I send rays of goodness to all of you guys! Peace and love from Ukraine!
Visst men var var svenskarna?
@@dajjukunrama5695 i don't speak swedish
Alz Gamer - translation: “Sure, but where were the Swedes?”
I don’t know what he means by this though.
@@JekyViews oh, thanks for help =) by the way, I don't know that either
@ræve nej jag är världsmedborgare
This performance is "an everlasting piece of art"
Euphoria is the best Eurovision song ever
You have a small taste then
Jenny ESC Waterloo and abba would also ha e to be up there
Yes
YES
@@EdjeMr1975 it is the best
The year that Eurovision decided that having a good song became important to win.
It really is depressing how often that isn't the case 😂
it was simple STUNNING performance and song !!! i was beyond the sky when she won!
i love your reaction ....mine was the same lol
This still gives me goose bumps!
The best performance EVER!!
Ruslana gave more energetic performance !!!!
Jamala 1944 better
The song received the highest number of maximum (12) points of any entry in the contest's history with eighteen countries giving the song their top marks.
Still very happy to call this the best song in Eurovision history
And remember it is live vocals. She is amazing
Sweden is the best Country in the Eurovision so far 🇸🇪
Well actually it isn't, if you go by the number of ESC wins.
I think Dutch might have a chance if Floor Jansen enters and sings her rendition
@@ericdroddy7444 btw Lena didnt deserve the 1 place there was so much more better songs that year like Manga we could be the same
@@samedcaglayan3432 is this just a competition for Europe or have you ever seen an American enter 🤔?
Sweden has had the best songs tho
She’s competing this year too! The song is called Tattoo and is on youtube, staging on it is mindblowing
She is back this year in eurovision 👏🏻👏🏻 #loreen
2012 was my first Eurovision experience.
damn thats kinda sad... the bar was set pretty high that year with 4-5 pretty good entries. Do you feel let down by the last few years?
Mine 1991 😉
Still one of the best of the best of the best performances in Eurovision for the last 15 years that I watch Eurovision. Jake, I knew you will love it, that's why I and the majority of folks out there recommended you to watch it☺️ You facial reactions videos are priceless☺️
I always gets chills watching her performance of Euphoria. She nailed it! ❤❤❤
I’m so late to this reaction but I remember watching this in hospital at 11 years old (grown up on Eurovision) and was the highlight of my stay! I literally claimed the games room to watch Eurovision haha
When i first saw her performance i said yap she just won. Chillssssss
Wase Miriam it was the same when she first performed it in the Swedish contest. I remember thinking that there was no point in seeing the other acts. She would be better than all of them. I was right, since she got to represent Sweden and none of the other acts were even close to hers. 🙂
In the modern age of Eurovision, this is the song that rules them all!
I love you man! Such a cool reaction and sincere word for my favorite singer ever❤️
If you liked her, you should defo see her performance at Melodifestivalen - Paper Light (Higher) :) She's pure gold, I myself have been following her closely since she won and you can easily tell how creative her mind is ❤️
Lucia de Alarcon
Her "Statements" and "My heart is refusing me" are amazing too🙆
Ofc! Everything she does, actually haha
A beautiful song with brilliant camera work
Every song has a different shot list worked out for it by the show director &. director of photography
Eurovision camera work is always top notch
Loreen's performance is just epic! Love your reactions Jake! Love from Greece!
One of my favourites for all time .
A huge interpretation from Loreen !
That song is so good, perfection. It always makes me cry because it’s so beautiful.
i'm VERY late on this but this reaction is so real cuz i get chills everytime i watch it, love your reaction :)
Such an iconic performance
Yess, definitely check out literally everything else she has done, you won't regret it, she is quality through and through!
Her album she put out with this song is still to this day one of my favorites to listen to all the way through.
Best eurovision performance in 30 years. A banger.
She is out of this world! 🌟❤️🌟❤️🌟❤️🇸🇪#eurovision2023
Euphoria is the most iconic win ever, that song shapped the Eurovision we know
My favorite Eurovision performance of all time! And also the one that got me *extra* excited for Eurovision!
Your faces are too much for me 😂 Living with your reactions
I think many will agree on it.
I would personally ask for reacting to Sweden 1974 and Switzerland 1988 winning performances. Why these ones? You’ll get crazy to know WHO won these years. I’m sure you know these artists. But please don’t spoil it and don’t check WHO were representing their countries these years! It should be your reaction filmed to learn this!
This video made my heart happy, thank you.
the best song in Eurovision history. greetings from Ukraine
The strongest and powerfull song ever in the eaurovison
You're right :)
Oh Yeah !!!
That is Molitva ! Molitva is the most powerful song !!!
Yep, it all has to allign: song, singer and setting :-). What I found striking about that performance and the way it was lit was the fact that you basically only see her outline, you hardly get to see her face. In any other situation I would say it is to hide that someone isn’t singing live but in this case it actually made you focus on her voice and song more intently and you hear how great both are.

Hej, could you react to ua-cam.com/video/5PQJI-3LW-8/v-deo.html 😊
Omg I miss your reactions. :)
Was so proud when Loreen and Månz win their years. People with tolerant hearts, show the diversity of sweden, clean but cool staging. Greetings from sweden.
2012 was probably the best ESC year to date. So many good songs. I'm happy Loreen won, but you should also check out Albania's song Suus from that year. One of the strongest song performances ever!
Please react to Loïc Nottet - Rhythm Inside. It's the entry of 2015 from Belgium. He's fantastic!❤
Yes please.. One of my absolute favorites!!! I voted for him so much:)
I agree. A fantastic song
Katharina Blass O
Agreed!
He was amazing! Please, react :)
It was soooo obvious she was going to win the moment the song came out, but the rest of the countries still sent many cool songs.
Yeeeees. 2012 was such a great year. Spain, Albania. Wow.
In terms of studio-mix Downloads this is the second biggest selling Eurovision entry after Waterloo by ABBA.
I like your reaction, and also that you are not one of those who stop the video to comment. I appreciate that very much. A hug
I love that you are so openminded.
Still watching this and the reaction video. Timeless song!
I still have goosebumps...amazing
This is the best winner ever in my opinion! I'm such a Loreen fan her whole album was amazing!
Great reaction man, feels real and sincere, so you got yourself a new sub here (I am from Sweden, but I dont sub just cause you praise the music from here, you did a great reaction, so thats why.)
I’m so grateful for you listen through the whole song and not interrupt for saying something.
Beautiful! ❤️
This song was a winner since march when we were presented the contestants and we all knew who is taking the win. The greatest winner ever
You should seriously react to more music of Loreen. She has two amazing albums out there. The first one is called "Heal" of which Euphoria is the lead single so you can expect a lot more of that prime swedish pop fantasy. It has a dark in spiritual overall vibe.
The second album, called "Ride" came out just last year and is more indie/rock/grunge/synth pop. It's so different but so. good. Also her stand-alone single "Statements" is such an iconic song
Hi again! Love this song and Loreen as an artist. Integrity and a good spirit! Love ure expression! U are soo cute!
Bye from Louise from 🇸🇪 🙏🏻
I legitimately put this song on every playlist I make. By far my favourite Eurovision winner!
I remember backpacking from Croatia through Italy, France, and Spain the summer of 2012. This song was EVERYWHERE that summer.
I love your reactions!!!!
🙏🌸😬
Yes, this is my favourite Eurovision song all of times!!! Could you also react to Italy 2015 ? :P
If you are so impressed by dancing and singing at the same time, you should check Ruslana “Wild dances” 2004). But please react to Ukraine 2007, you will know how insane the performances at Eurovision can be, and still we love them. Great reactions the face of yours has, keep going!))
Eugenia Whales Ukraine 2008 it's also a good example of singing and dancing
I totally agree! Lorene’s choreography is super original, fresh, and it so matches the music!
Oh, and Shady Lady is a masterpiece of show, I liked it very much then. The girl dancing on the high heels with the simplicity is a goddess 👸👸💃
Yes, Ruslana, with wild dance was cool to, I was cheering for her that year even if I am swedish.
Thank you for reacting to this! Loreen is still one of my fave winner ♥
If you've got the time (and especially the will), could i request a few songs too? my requests would be:
1) Italy 2013: Marco Mengoni - L'essenziale (it came 7th) ua-cam.com/video/S8oaxDV1q6o/v-deo.html

Woooow Loreen is the QUEEN! Her music is pure art! Check out her "statements" performance also from last year, it's truly awesome and I'm still mad it didnt make it..
You need to react to Loreen’s My Heart Is Refusing Me from Melodifestivalen the year before. She was awesome!
So happy to be a swede today. Amazing our Loreen!!
You should react to her interval act medley from the 2013 final - trust me its amazing, euphoria literally goes to the next level

In a word: sensational. Goosebumps, still .

After Eurovision you could watch semi final recaps of different years and predict which 10 got through and then look at the names of the actual qualifiers after that.
Proud 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪
Euphoria is one of my favorite eurovision songs ever! Actually all the songs she makes are great!
Please react to The Netherlands at the eurovision in 2014. The Common Linnets.

Euphoria! Hard to match, loved your reaction.
Please react to Norway 2016, is my favourite entry so far 😃. Love your reactions, from Spain!🇪🇸
It's hella stylish. She made the staging like a dark dream and it just seeps with atmosphere
Conchita Vurst - rise like a phonix

Its Conchita Wurst ( Rise like a Phoenix )

This song sums up exactly how I felt when I found out I was pregnant that year!
I love this song! 💜💜💜🇬🇷🇸🇪
Her entire album is AMAZING
Best song ever winning this contest!
