OH YES FINALLY JAKE THANK YOUUUUU I'M SCREAMING YEEEEESSS. Now the next one in my list is Albania 2012. Now I'm gonna watch the video. (After 6 minutes) It gave you goosebumps too :D Perfect! AND I'M STILL HAPPY. Yayyy thank you for doing this. 3:28 is life.
I agree! Albania 2012 was WOW! Best Albanian entry ever in ESC! Spain was amazing too! I had Spain 4th in 2012, behind Sweden (1st), Albania (2nd) and Estonia (3rd). Jake, I really recomend you watch both Albania and Estonia 2012, both were very artistic and classy.
E. Arbur That and it was the wrong year. It was pretty clear Euphoria was going to run away with the contest. Still, Pastora deserved better than tenth though.
I remember on the night of the final I thought "yeah she is good, but the notes are not as impressive as Albania". Since then I have learned to repsect this song more
Georgia Papadopoulou They had a more enjoyable songs which was catchier. Also they were more likeable and charismatic. Russia was better than us and more memorable
because people like to vote for shit Russian songs, too many neighbours (10 ex-soviet countries+huge diaspora+former Warsaw pact sympathizers+Serbia and Bulgaria). Diaspora clowns bother to vote 20 times for a song, when an ordinary person might not vote more than once or twice per song.
I remember that moment like that Spaniard living in South Africa. I was in a restaurant and the body sneered at me. The South African people applauded and sang Spain winning. It is one of the most beautiful moments I have lived in my life. I just cried for joy of being Spanish
Spain's best entry ever and of course totally underrated, just as always with Spain. And if you were impressed by her long note just wait until you hear Albania from the same year. ;)
Hi. I took the time to translate the song. Regards. STAY WITH ME [Verse 1] I'm sorry if I didn't know how to say That you were everything to me I'm sorry for the pain I'm sorry for every single tear I know I don't deserve more But if I don't have you here, I don't know how to live [Pre-Chorus] Stay with me Don't go, forgive me [Chorus] If I didn't know how to love you, love The heart wasn't mine Stay with me, stay with me If you're not here the sun won't rise [Verse 2] There are no longer memories from yesterday Only the hours on your skin, loving you [Pre-Chorus] Stay with me Don't go, forgive me [Chorus] If I didn't know how to love you, love The heart wasn't mine Stay with me, stay with me If you're not here the sun won't rise [Bridge] Now that I watch you leave I know I won't forget you [Chorus] If I didn't know how to love you, love The heart wasn't mine Stay with me, stay with me If you're not here the sun won't rise Now that I watch you leave I know I won't forget you Stay with me, stay with me If you're not here the sun won't rise
Favorite Spanish entry right here! Besides Sweden, 2012 had some more amazing voices that are definitely worthy of reactions: Azerbaijan, Estonia, Albania, FYR Macedonia, and Serbia.
Well, I think Jake also needs to give San Marino 2012 a reaction if he's planning to do 2012 the same way he did 2016 and is planning to do the next few years, because it's a "special" song, to say the least and it can't be relegated to a 3-second clip. Hell, all of Valentina's songs are something and deserve their own reactions even if 3/4 stayed in the semis.
She's an Eurovision tradition. We don't want her in the contest but we miss her when she's not. Jessika and Jenifer Brening even did that Euromeme in the rehearsals with that "Justice for Valentina" sign.
Thx so much ❤️ this is my favorite performance for all the time! I was waiting your reaction ❤️ Pastora the greatest singer for Eurovision for me! So many people in Russia love her! She was criminally robbed in 2012!
Incredible, perfection... shame on the contest...if she had sung for saxon countries, she would have won... political... in 1973, the same, mocedades recognized all over te world with eres tu had to win so, but political as for karina in 1971, as good as severine. This is why lot of People don t watch this political contest. Sure for all spanish I say, pastora this year, the right winner.
This was my winner back then, but Euforia was also great. I still cry when I watch this performance Even though I don't understand Spanish, but her passion and sincerity just gets me everytime. ❤️ It should at least have been on second place. 12 point from Denmark ❤️
The fact that the audience gave them a place at the bottom of the table is one of the biggest mysteries to me to date. Lucky for the judges to appreciate this excellent song
The 2012 contest was of a very high standard but the results were bizarre. For me, Spain being 10th was ridiculous. Spain should've won. Loreen is a superb singer however the song was dated. It sounds more like a 90's club song. I remember back to the 70s when Eurovision was taken seriously because quality songs and performers won the contest each year and the winning song was a hit all over Europe inc the UK. But if Russia's entry in 2012 can get more votes than Spain, Azerbaijan, Germany, Albania & Estonia then Eurovision deserves to be forgotten the day after the contest, which is what happens now.
La mejor representante que hemos enviado a Eurovision, calidad vocal presencia y temazo. Otra cancion que te recomiendo que escuches es del 2013 Georgia muy buen tema tambien y buenisimas voces. Un saludo
2012 is one of Eurovision's strongest years, imo. I still listen to over half the songs. There were a lot of ballads, so powerful vocals were very much on display. I, like many others have said, highly recommend Albania and FYR Macedonia as well. Random suggestion: United Kingdom 2013 - it was Bonnie Tyler! Quietly hoping for Italy 1956 and Germany 1979.
Not the highest, not the longest, but one of the most memorable notes in the entire history of Eurovision. Everything in that song is thought so that you remember that note. 8 years have passed and I remember it perfectly without watching the video. I will be 60 years old and will remember it perfectly. The bad thing is that you do not value the rest of the song so much still being very impressive vocally.
That long note is everything ❤️ I think her styling could have been better. I wish she had worn her hair like in the music video instead of that severe bun.
De las mejores voces femeninas de ESPAÑA...con diferencua ..deberia a ver ganado en su dia ese Festival Una lastima..pero en ESPAÑA se la quiere y Admira hasta la muerte. ARRIBA PASTORAAA❤❤❤❤
This is an amazing entry btw, i recommend you hear Zeljko entries from Serbia, came 2nd on 2004 and 3rd on 2012, two of my all time favorites.. Worth a reaction.
You can see the magical hand of Thomas G:Son (swedish composer) on this masterpiece. Please check the meaning of the lyrics. It's a really beautiful love song.
I agree, the general public tend to vote for quirky/dance track or simply bloody awful ('18), leaving the genuine winner far behind. The bearded dress guy risin' like a phoenix wasn't my taste but he had a reasonable voice.
Pastora is simply perfect ❤️ Now I only want Albania 2012 (I can't recall whether you reacted to it or not) and Spain 1995 - 2nd place Still listening to all of these songs :D
Another instant reaction you should do is to Greece's entry in 2001 Antique with the song Die for You, one of the singers in that duo is Helena Paparizou who you might remember from her winning entry in 2005
Thank you so much!!! She was one of our best! She is a great and important singer here in Spain ^_^ (from Andalucía) and she's very beloved between us. But I think her style wasn't the best :(. Anyway, I wish that, someday, she'll back to Eurovisión and she will make us happy and proud again U_U.
Oh wow Spain was amazing back in 2012. Definitely deserved more than 10th place. Please could you do a instant reaction to Serbia 2008. I would truly be so happy if you did
Jake thank you so much to help me through my post eurovision depression. I also got goosebumps from Pastora's voice. Could you please react to Monaco 1971 (winner)?
OH YES FINALLY JAKE THANK YOUUUUU I'M SCREAMING YEEEEESSS. Now the next one in my list is Albania 2012. Now I'm gonna watch the video. (After 6 minutes) It gave you goosebumps too :D Perfect! AND I'M STILL HAPPY. Yayyy thank you for doing this. 3:28 is life.
#Luke My pleasure, Luke.😊
You must watch Albania 2012 :)
I agree! Albania 2012 was WOW! Best Albanian entry ever in ESC! Spain was amazing too! I had Spain 4th in 2012, behind Sweden (1st), Albania (2nd) and Estonia (3rd).
Jake, I really recomend you watch both Albania and Estonia 2012, both were very artistic and classy.
Yes please watch Albania 2012. You'll be amazed
Finally Spain 2012! Next, 2012 reaction, Albania please! I agree 😊
I'm not even close Spanish, but this was the best vocals in the whole Eurovision history! Still don't get how come she didn't win that year.
And it's Spain! 😞
E. Arbur That and it was the wrong year. It was pretty clear Euphoria was going to run away with the contest. Still, Pastora deserved better than tenth though.
Neither do I....
I remember on the night of the final I thought "yeah she is good, but the notes are not as impressive as Albania". Since then I have learned to repsect this song more
Neither the Spaniards. The song and singer were outstanding
One of the best voices in 2012. Bravo Spain
Spain was my winner that year. I voted for her so many times and I remember watching this crying.
i still can't believe that those grandmas from Russia got second place and this AMAZING song from Spain got 10th.
Georgia Papadopoulou
They had a more enjoyable songs which was catchier. Also they were more likeable and charismatic.
Russia was better than us and more memorable
Georgia Papadopoulou anything that is weird, funny and grotesque attracts Eurovision televoters and juries, unfortunately.
because people like to vote for shit Russian songs, too many neighbours (10 ex-soviet countries+huge diaspora+former Warsaw pact sympathizers+Serbia and Bulgaria). Diaspora clowns bother to vote 20 times for a song, when an ordinary person might not vote more than once or twice per song.
Spain should have been second right after Loreen, because they were both fenomenal. The Russian granny's were cute, but that's it.
It deserved a better placing, it's an amazing song and her vocals are so effortless. Simply amazing!
Possibly one of my favourite Eurovision songs of all time.
one of the best songs of Eurovision, and one of the best voices!
I cannot be partial because I am Spanish, but it is surely one of the best performances in the history of the festival. It was literally perfect.
One of my favourite ESC entries ever.. Well Done Spain
+1, I love this song!
I remember that moment like that Spaniard living in South Africa. I was in a restaurant and the body sneered at me. The South African people applauded and sang Spain winning. It is one of the most beautiful moments I have lived in my life. I just cried for joy of being Spanish
Best Spanish entry ever!
Spain should have won this year!
2012 was definitely a strong year, but 10th place was an injustice for Pastora Soler. It still gives me goosebumps in 2018!
Pastora's voice and this powerful song let me crying
Spain's best entry ever and of course totally underrated, just as always with Spain. And if you were impressed by her long note just wait until you hear Albania from the same year. ;)
Pastora Soler, unas de las grandes en España !!
The best song of Spain in years! I mean what a singer, what a voice and what a song! 2012 was a good year!
that glory note tho....i was waiting for Jake to get to it, lol
one of the best vocal performances. wish she'd done better than 10th
My favorite entry of Spain and one of the best entries of all time :)
Hi. I took the time to translate the song. Regards.
STAY WITH ME
[Verse 1]
I'm sorry if I didn't know how to say
That you were everything to me
I'm sorry for the pain
I'm sorry for every single tear
I know I don't deserve more
But if I don't have you here, I don't know how to live
[Pre-Chorus]
Stay with me
Don't go, forgive me
[Chorus]
If I didn't know how to love you, love
The heart wasn't mine
Stay with me, stay with me
If you're not here the sun won't rise
[Verse 2]
There are no longer memories from yesterday
Only the hours on your skin, loving you
[Pre-Chorus]
Stay with me
Don't go, forgive me
[Chorus]
If I didn't know how to love you, love
The heart wasn't mine
Stay with me, stay with me
If you're not here the sun won't rise
[Bridge]
Now that I watch you leave
I know I won't forget you
[Chorus]
If I didn't know how to love you, love
The heart wasn't mine
Stay with me, stay with me
If you're not here the sun won't rise
Now that I watch you leave
I know I won't forget you
Stay with me, stay with me
If you're not here the sun won't rise
YES! My favourite Eurovision performance ever! Well, this and Eleni :)
Another entry from Spain that was underrated, why is it that the voters don't like Spain????? This song and Pastora Soler are magnificent!!!!!!
Grande pastora soler!
Favorite Spanish entry right here! Besides Sweden, 2012 had some more amazing voices that are definitely worthy of reactions: Azerbaijan, Estonia, Albania, FYR Macedonia, and Serbia.
Exactly. It was a year of amazing and unique vocalists and vocals. Specially Albania, Spain and F.Y.R Macedonia. Special mention to San Marino (jk).
Well, I think Jake also needs to give San Marino 2012 a reaction if he's planning to do 2012 the same way he did 2016 and is planning to do the next few years, because it's a "special" song, to say the least and it can't be relegated to a 3-second clip. Hell, all of Valentina's songs are something and deserve their own reactions even if 3/4 stayed in the semis.
She's an Eurovision tradition. We don't want her in the contest but we miss her when she's not. Jessika and Jenifer Brening even did that Euromeme in the rehearsals with that "Justice for Valentina" sign.
Jessika and Jenifer or a Eurofan? I think what the robot could hold up was open to Twitter and people could choose themselves.
The "Justice for Valentina" sign is legit ua-cam.com/video/RTx855AFovA/v-deo.html
Thx so much ❤️ this is my favorite performance for all the time! I was waiting your reaction ❤️ Pastora the greatest singer for Eurovision for me! So many people in Russia love her! She was criminally robbed in 2012!
Anna Bagirova glad you feel that way, I do too ( Danish Woman )
Incredible, perfection... shame on the contest...if she had sung for saxon countries, she would have won... political... in 1973, the same, mocedades recognized all over te world with eres tu had to win so, but political as for karina in 1971, as good as severine. This is why lot of People don t watch this political contest. Sure for all spanish I say, pastora this year, the right winner.

It should at least have been on second place. 12 point from Denmark ❤️
The fact that the audience gave them a place at the bottom of the table is one of the biggest mysteries to me to date. Lucky for the judges to appreciate this excellent song
I knew you´re gonna love her. Amazing performance. Best Spanish performance on eurovision since Anabel Conde "Vuelve Conmigo"
One of rare songs that are so good but disgracefully undermarked and deserved a much higher placing.
Ruth Lorenzo dancing in the rain eurovision 2014-spain
Yeeeeees you reacted to the greatest Spanish entry EVER....I looooooove Quedate conmigo
Y llegó ella,pastora.....la gran pastora soler .
Gracias Pastora por esa gran actuacion que solo tu,unica e irrepetible,nos podría haber ofrecido.
The 2012 contest was of a very high standard but the results were
bizarre. For me, Spain being 10th was ridiculous. Spain should've won.
Loreen is a superb singer however the song was dated. It sounds more
like a 90's club song. I remember back to the 70s when Eurovision was
taken seriously because quality songs and performers won the contest
each year and the winning song was a hit all over Europe inc the UK.
But if Russia's entry in 2012 can get more votes than Spain, Azerbaijan,
Germany, Albania & Estonia then Eurovision deserves to be forgotten
the day after the contest, which is what happens now.
Everything about this performance is just perfect! 💯
One of the great perfomances from Eurovision of all time. Powerful and amazing Pastora Soler.
Thaaaank you for reacting to my favorite winner in 2012 its soooo amazing "Quedate conmigo" a masterpiece
I got teary now, OMG, that was A SONG, just a m a z i n g.
When I sing that song in the comfort of my four walls, often times the tears do come. That‘s how much power that song has! SHE IS INCREDIBLE!
La mejor representante que hemos enviado a Eurovision, calidad vocal presencia y temazo. Otra cancion que te recomiendo que escuches es del 2013 Georgia muy buen tema tambien y buenisimas voces. Un saludo
You should also try Spain 2014. Dancing in the Rain was equally as great and as underrated as Quedate Conmigo
Si en el minuto 3:33 no te ha dado la risa nerviosa por la sincera expresión de Mike no eres humano, Thx Jake.
2012 is one of Eurovision's strongest years, imo. I still listen to over half the songs. There were a lot of ballads, so powerful vocals were very much on display. I, like many others have said, highly recommend Albania and FYR Macedonia as well.
Random suggestion: United Kingdom 2013 - it was Bonnie Tyler!
Quietly hoping for Italy 1956 and Germany 1979.
It was the best year Vikki, with '17 in second place.
YAYYYYY!!! FINALLY! 😍😍😍
Others from Spain that are amazing:
1995
2014
2015

Spain 1990 - Bandido by Azucar Moreno...
SPAIN 1995 AND 2014.THANKS!!! MUCHAS GRACIAS!!!!
And 1990 Azucar Moreno
Hahah prepare yourself Jake, 2012 is soooo good!
La maravillosa Pastora Soler y su bella canción Quédate conmigo siempre me hace llorar
One of my favourite Spanish entries ever. Wait until you hear the voice that comes out of Poland 1994. :)
By far my favourite entry from 2012 & my favourite ever entry from Spain with Ruth Lorenzo (ESC 2014) in a close 2nd
An AMAZING song and singer!!! Everytime I listen to it I get goosebumps 😍
Good reaction Jake. Her voice is so powerful and the song is amazing. Have a great day
hey jake... waited for this reaction for sooooooo long.... my all time favourite eurovision song ever... thank you ....
Not the highest, not the longest, but one of the most memorable notes in the entire history of Eurovision. Everything in that song is thought so that you remember that note. 8 years have passed and I remember it perfectly without watching the video. I will be 60 years old and will remember it perfectly. The bad thing is that you do not value the rest of the song so much still being very impressive vocally.
2012 was a stellar year for Eurovision and that was one of the stellar numbers!
Everytime I watch this perfomance I have goosebumps.
WOW epic voice
Her vocals are insane,
the voice and song formidable spain from france
Una de las mejores voces de mi país
Spaniards have the best voices for music.
Thanks for your reaction Jake, can you react to Anabel conde. Vuelve conmigo Eurovisión 1995 please? Hugs from Spain.
One of the best songs /singer ever.
That long note is everything ❤️
I think her styling could have been better. I wish she had worn her hair like in the music video instead of that severe bun.
It was only 18th in the televote though
I might agree with you in the hair part, but nobody can deny that the dress was PERFECT!!!
Thank u I wanted you to react to this, no matter what spain send to esc Pastora will be my fav entry from that country ever
Number 1 eurovision 2012 pastor soler.... Beautiful song.
My favourites that year with cyprus
Pastora❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
De las mejores voces femeninas de ESPAÑA...con diferencua ..deberia a ver ganado en su dia ese Festival
Una lastima..pero en ESPAÑA se la quiere y Admira hasta la muerte.
ARRIBA PASTORAAA❤❤❤❤
Grandeeeee esa Pastora Soler!!! Ole ellaaa!! I loved your reaction, too 🥰🥰🥰
Fantastic!
YESSSSSSSSS! LOVE PASTORA! Also react to Spain 2014!!
Thank you Jake.
Greetings from Germany
Pastora Soler simplemente MARAVILLOSA
This is an amazing entry btw, i recommend you hear Zeljko entries from Serbia, came 2nd on 2004 and 3rd on 2012, two of my all time favorites.. Worth a reaction.
One of my favorite songs from Eurovision ever
one of the best eurovision songs i love it.... i vote 10x for her.......
Awesome tune
Thanks from Spain !!!
You can see the magical hand of Thomas G:Son (swedish composer) on this masterpiece. Please check the meaning of the lyrics. It's a really beautiful love song.
the magical hand of making it a ''Chasing Cars'' (Snow Patrol) rip-off, as G:Son occasionally does (Sweden 2001/Belgium 1996)
Pastora Soler has an impressive voice, I follow her since she was a little girl and she sang flamenco.
You gonna love Macedonia 2012!
Love your channel dude! So genuine!
One of Spain's very best entry
The best
OOO Pastora Soler:)i like her song very much and evertime i listen
Moi thanks you for finally getting round to this my favorite song of all. If you think Loreen was art, this trumps the board.
React to Spain 2014 Ruth Lorenzo - Dancing in the rain
German Jelvez Peñailillo, I subscribe to that!
Yeah this one is my favorite, but that one was also really good!
Nah, too simplistic and dare I say Gene Kelly is looking for his royalty check.Great vocal though.
That's a good point, but this remains the GOAT. I've simply heard nothing that matches it.
I agree, the general public tend to vote for quirky/dance track or simply bloody awful ('18), leaving the genuine winner far behind. The bearded dress guy risin' like a phoenix wasn't my taste but he had a reasonable voice.
Pastora is simply perfect ❤️
Now I only want Albania 2012 (I can't recall whether you reacted to it or not) and Spain 1995 - 2nd place
Still listening to all of these songs :D
Mi Pastora 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Please react to the Top 10 of 2015! You'd love it😍 Also thanks for reacting to this its ICONIC
Another instant reaction you should do is to Greece's entry in 2001 Antique with the song Die for You, one of the singers in that duo is Helena Paparizou who you might remember from her winning entry in 2005
I know people already requesting Albania 2012 but you should do Estonia 2012. Basically it’s the male Pastora Soler of that year.
Based on the tracks which rank among your faves i think you would love Norway 2013 - I feed you my love
Michael McR, doesn't everyone? :).
It was obvious Loreen was gonna win that year but Spain deserved that 2nd place.
Me encanta ver las caras cuando pega el grito
Pastora 4 ever
Grande Pastora Soler merecía ganar ,ninguna tuvo ese torrente de voz ni te puso la piel chinita como ella
Thank you so much!!! She was one of our best! She is a great and important singer here in Spain ^_^ (from Andalucía) and she's very beloved between us. But I think her style wasn't the best :(. Anyway, I wish that, someday, she'll back to Eurovisión and she will make us happy and proud again U_U.
React to Spain 2014, Dancing in the rain by Ruth Lorenzo 😍😍
My all time favorite entry from Spain, which I still listen to today ❤
Oh wow Spain was amazing back in 2012. Definitely deserved more than 10th place. Please could you do a instant reaction to Serbia 2008. I would truly be so happy if you did
Jake thank you so much to help me through my post eurovision depression. I also got goosebumps from Pastora's voice. Could you please react to Monaco 1971 (winner)?
THANK YOU!!!
