But seriously, I hope Eurovision would attempt something like this for its 100th jubilee, if it makes it there. It would be a once in a lifetime opportunity to invite the world to join in the fun. I think hosting should then be split among three countries. Definitely the winner of the 99th edition, maybe Switzerland since that's where the first one was hosted and a spot where every nation can apply to and then one of them is chosen by whatever mechanism seems fair. Give the quarter finals to the two additional hosts and the previous winner hosts the semis and finale as usual. It will probably never happen but a girl can dream and I would really appreciate it as a 60th birthday gift to me from the EBU 😅
Fun video, Adam! Only one detail: Upper Volta is called Burkina Faso since 1984. A fun suggestion for the future: Perhaps a look to Latin America's former version of ESC, the OTI Festival held from 1972 to 2000.
Ok that explains why I've never heard of the country - even though Upper Volta sounds more badass than Burkina Faso, but a nation cannot rally around a badass name alone...
A few corrections. Georgia's best result is, unfortunately, 9th place. Belarus was suspended not because "they failed to pick a song". They sent a blatant propaganda piece, and when EBU told them to change it, they sent an even more blatant one. Russia started out in 1994, and actually didn't compete in 1996 because it didn't qualify in the pre-selection. Also my guy, where did you even get a list containing *_Upper Volta and Zaire_* ???🤣
Eurovision has to be the most GOATed yet Worst. or to be specific EBU. unfair disqualification with no evidence and im still salty. BRING BACK SUNSTROKE PROJECT MOLDOVA (joke)
How about a wildcard slot. Every year any broadcaster can submit an entry which are voted for online in the lead up and then say 2 or 3 of them get through. Would add a bit of variety
Imagine like the entire flipping world competes Here’s the format preliminary round: 10 groups of 20 Top 10 advance Quarter final: 5 groups of 20 Top 10 advance Semi final: 2 groups of 25 nations Top 15 advance Final: 36 nations!!!!! Big 5+ host + 30 from semi final Time to do all of this: Probably 4 months😅😅 But hey it’s better then just a week right! Likeability of this happening: -0,0000-E420%( so absolutely impossible)
Or: - each country has a selection show to choose their act - every country goes through a regional competition (e.g. Western Europe, North America etc.), with a set number making it through from each region (6 from Europe, 2 from NA etc.) - semi final and final with the chosen nations
As well as the 49 nations who didnt make it into the video, there was a social media post about eurovision carribean. You could also technically add the rest of the Carribean too this video, making the total count over 130
@@OceanChannelProductions I remember seeing articles about how there were plans for an Eurovision Asia Song Contest, but those were cancelled. (Edit: I just checked, and apparently the website had been updated in 2023, so there might be new plans)
Imagine the viewing figures this massive 100+ country- participating song contest will receive. Hopefully a lot because a huge event like this needs to be seen.
The thumbnail is clickbait. It says ''100+'' countries, in Europe + Australia there are in total 51 countries, so if every country entered the competition it wouldn't be over 100+.
I kind of would have liked you to talk about Liechtenstein a bit more. Even though they aren't EBU members, they still push for sending someone into the contest. But yeah, hopefully country vs country song contests get more attention and respect soon to afford to do continental contests and a World Final with the best of each.
Whoa, this is cool, and I was reminded of what I imagined Eurovision Asia Song Contest could've been like had it not been cancelled. (18:25) The mention of Malaysia having an associate member (presumably RTM) led me to imagine watch parties being held by Singaporeans who lived close enough to the border to be able to receive all myFreeview DVB multiplexes (or at least the RTM multiplexes) on their TVs to watch the contest live on RTM TV1 with local Malay commentary.
I quite like the idea (the superfans would surely go for it) of having a single marathon event with all 124 nations taking part. If we say each country has six minutes (3 performing and the rest for intros and change over, that would take 12 hours and 44 minutes. Assuming the vote counting takes about an hour for 25 countries, multiply that by 5 to give 5 hours for counting and interval acts. Running time so far 17 -18 hours. Add another 5 hours for the announcing of the votes and I believe we could have it done and dusted in a neat 24hours.i would definitely be up for that and would love it
So the next time someone asks you for the millionth time why Australia competes, or indeed why the UK still does after Brexit, there's your answer. It's irritating how people take the Euro part of the title so literally, as if they've never heard of a little thing called branding. It also annoys me in the case of Australia, because before their first participation in 2015, few asked the same question of Israel, indicating that people don't actually know where Israel is, but they do know that Australia is a big island on the other side of the world, so it stands out. They're not good at geography, in other words. For the people who grumble about Australia every year in the UK, I'd love to see the US enter just to see them lose their minds. This was explored in an episode of Pointless when the contestants were asked to name members of the EBU. As Richard Osman explained that you don't have to be in Europe to be eligible, just be a member of the EBU, you could see some people's heads spinning. 'You don't have to be in Europe?!' 🤯 So it became a dare, do they risk looking stupid by naming a country in Africa or the Americas in the hope that it's Pointless, or do they play safe and go for a country that definitely competes? That was a fun one.
Oh dear, you forgot a whole bunch of possibilities. Since for Junior Eurovision Wales, Scotland and England can participate seperate from the United Kingdom (when BBC decides not to participate as a nation) the ante is up. Following that rule Belgium could decide to leave their three broadcasters the choice to join, meaning Flanders, Wallonia and Brussels could compete, even pushing it that the eastern cantons could do the same (yes they all have tv stations that are members due to their link to the governing bodies) but then Switzerland can do the same, so could Germany and France with their o erseas territories (which is currently also possible for any British overseas territory that has a local broadcaster with any kind of affiliate membership. giving you a minimum of nearly 20 additional participating broadcasters. But you talk of countries, so I'm off topic 😅😂 When all is said and done you could have more participating broadcaster than there are countries in the world.
Spain should not host once or twice or thrice but four times hosted eurovision the first one hosted in madrid back in 1969 the second one not hosted in malmo sweden because the previous edition held in rome sergio dalma wins the contest instead of sweden and the 1992 edition will be hosted in valencia the third one not hosted in moscow russia because the previous edition held in belgrade rodolfo chikilicuatre won the contest instead of mother russia and the 2009 edition being held in Zaragoza and the last edition this one is a back to back as the entire operacion triunfo 2008 crew decided to sing agua in order for the next edition being held in Bilbao!!!
I’ve always been curious about what songs other countries would send if they were in a song contest the voting would be so long though if the voting was done in todays format it would probably be around 1hr 37min if everyone was quick and didn’t say any long speeches and that would be the jury votes we would still have the televote to go
I do believe that Faroe Islands were supposed to be there somewhere, but I guess our flag does look like England. 😉😉 But at least brother Greenland is there.
I would love to see a one off worldvision song contest this would be an amazing to hear and see that 124 would be alot but have 6 qualifying in one month man that would be insane tho.
I was working on the basis that the United Kingdom would continue to represent the way it has done. I wonder if the BBC will ever give that up, but I'd be curious to see a contest where the individual nations take part, as a half Welshie myself 🏴
The associate members has more financial issues than others so the countries that could do it in the future are 🇨🇦🇺🇸🇨🇳🇯🇵🇰🇷🇳🇿🇰🇿🇲🇾 (Maaaybe 🇮🇳🇧🇷)…Especially USA already had the American Song Contest and Korea can bring HUGE crowds and the *money hungry* EBU would love to have them As a Japanese/American ESC fan, I’d doubt Asiavision would not happen anytime soon. 🇰🇷🇨🇳would dominate too much if they send their global artists and 🇹🇼might not be able to join due to 🇨🇳. South Asia as a whole might withdraw due to territorial disputes and financial issues, some SEA nations have disputes with 🇨🇳 but who knows. Maybe if Is***l will stay in ESC, 🇵🇸 could be in Asiavision instead!

this is such a good idea, but a bit unrealistic. this is how I would have done it instead: -not EBU organising it, but WBU (World Broadcasting Unions) instead, in which EBU is also one of the members along with NABA, CBU, AIR/IAB, AUB and ABU (surprisingly, OTI who did the OTI Festival is not a member of WBU) -name the show "Worldvision Song Contest" or "World Song Contest" -make the show inspired from Eurovision -let other continents have their own continental contest, just like "Europe" has Eurovision (such as "Asiavision" for Asia-Oceania by ABU; "Americas Song Contest" by a collab of NABA, CBU, AIR/IAB and OTI; as well as "African Song Contest" by AUB), and let the format be as similar as possible to that of Eurovision with minimal modification -make each "continental" contest as "qualifiers" and take the top (three, five or even ten) countries from each "qualifier" for "Worldvision". -put each "continental" contest three months away from each other schedule-wise (one was held in February, another in May which is/was Eurovision, another in August and another in November) -last one, put the Worldvision in December; in this case, if the initial November schedule was considered too burdensome and too close to the Worldvision for the particular continental contest initially put in that schedule, then move it to August, making August a "super month" (having two continental contests in the same month, just like how a Eurovision season often has "super Saturday")
The 2007 semifinal had 28 countries, if almost 90 countries compete which is usually what i have for my contest I would do 3 semifinals of that amount of countries where 10 qualify, and then a final of 31 countries, 10 from each semi + the host nation. This year for example is being held in japan so it's 30 countries + Japan!
I'd add Faroe Islands too since KVF (the Faroese Broadcaster) is trying to join to EBU and later on participate as an independent territory from Denmark in ESC 😅

this is such a good idea, but a bit unrealistic. this is how I would have done it instead:

-name the show "Worldvision Song Contest" or "World Song Contest"
-make the show inspired from Eurovision
-let other continents have their own continental contest, just like "Europe" has Eurovision (such as "Asiavision" for Asia-Oceania by ABU; "Americas Song Contest" by a collab of NABA, CBU, AIR/IAB and OTI; as well as "African Song Contest" by AUB), and let the format be as similar as possible to that of Eurovision with minimal modification
-make each "continental" contest as "qualifiers" and take the top (three, five or even ten) countries from each "qualifier" for "Worldvision".
-put each "continental" contest three months away from each other schedule-wise (one was held in February, another in May which is/was Eurovision, another in August and another in November)
-last one, put the Worldvision in December; in this case, if the initial November schedule was considered too burdensome and too close to the Worldvision for the particular continental contest initially put in that schedule, then move it to August, making August a "super month" (having two continental contests in the same month, just like how a Eurovision season often has "super Saturday")
Scotland would be good
The 2007 semifinal had 28 countries, if almost 90 countries compete which is usually what i have for my contest I would do 3 semifinals of that amount of countries where 10 qualify, and then a final of 31 countries, 10 from each semi + the host nation. This year for example is being held in japan so it's 30 countries + Japan!
I'd add Faroe Islands too since KVF (the Faroese Broadcaster) is trying to join to EBU and later on participate as an independent territory from Denmark in ESC 😅
