The Eurovision is over, however the fact is that this 12 months’s occasion brought regarding loads of feedback, most of them adverse. However how did three journalism college students at IEK DELTA 360 see all the things that occurred on the occasion in Sweden? Listed below are the articles despatched to us by our new colleagues.
ANDREAS MAVRIDES
“Go away me my Nemo to my Saturday nights…”
Final Saturday evening as a substitute of going out for a meal or a drink with the corporate, we determined to remain at dwelling and watch the “thrilling” 68th Eurovision.
In two phrases, our expertise was for an additional 12 months “wasted time”. The reality is that this specific track contest that lies is an establishment, we observe it purely out of musical curiosity.
It’s no coincidence that many names within the worldwide and home music business have emerged from him over time.
Attribute examples of artists and musical figures whose Eurovision stage was the springboard for an amazing musical profession have been Abba, Celine Dion, Vicky Leandros, Elena Paparizou, Dima Bilan and extra not too long ago Alexander Rybak and Maneskin.
Lately, nonetheless, we now have additionally seen a pattern on this specific competitors, in choosing winners not primarily based on musical standards, however by way of exterior components that don’t have anything to do with music, and in our opinion mustn’t have something to do with music. One thing like this additionally occurred in Malmö, Sweden, the place the successful track “the code” was carried out by a particular artist, “Nemo”, who recognized himself as “asexual”… Nonetheless, the Swiss consultant “received” the impressions of the committees and the general public together with his interpretation.
As well as, within the presence of Eire we additionally met an “asexual” consultant there, Bambi Thug, who was additionally accompanied by a track that was actually an “ode to the arrow from right here”. Nevertheless, we made a prayer followingwards for the “evil spirits” to depart our tv receivers.
However in useless for the reason that eutrapelas continued at an unabated tempo. Israel’s delegation was loudly booed on stage and throughout the vote, because of the track’s messages in regards to the warfare presently happening within the nation, as if the singer and his collaborators have the position of a politician or diplomat. Nonetheless, his efficiency was generously rewarded by the viewers as he positioned 2nd.
We proceed with the epitome of “kitsch” on this 12 months’s competitors, when the Finnish consultant stripped on stage and appeared to us not as a performer, however as a star of movies of sensual content material. And no worse.
Alternatively, satisfying to our ears and our eyes was the explosive Raven of Slovenia, who carried out her track “Veronica”, carrying a see-through costume that actually “left little to the creativeness” to the delight of the male viewers. The most effective efficiency of this 12 months’s competitors in our opinion was France who received 4th place, the place Slimane captivated the viewers and the judges together with his unbelievable voice.
And to conclude with our personal illustration, the place Marina Satti took an honest eleventh place, however with out “breaking mugs for the phrases she speaks”. We consider that the track “Zari” chosen by the Greek committee was a nasty alternative and did injustice to the indeniable musical origins of our 37-year-old consultant. A musical “mixer” of Greek, English and oriental components that, a minimum of for us, brought regarding an amazing irritation. In our eyes, she additionally misplaced many factors for a greater “inserting” from her conduct within the semi-final throughout the statements of the Israeli consultant with the ostentatious yawns.
Expensive Marina, if you wish to protest the warfare in Israel and any warfare normally, you might find a extra imaginative method. At the least do the suitable factor and present respect first to your self following which to the competitors and the nation you characterize!
KING TSELIKIS
A distinct Eurovision
The 68th Eurovision Tune Contest was hosted by Sweden and Malmö. Switzerland is the large winner of the competitors with “Nemo” and “The Code”. Nevertheless, the Eurovision establishment was fairly episodic. All of it begins with Thursday’s semi-final and the disqualification of the Dutch consultant from the Grand Closing for aggressive conduct in direction of a person of the competitors. There are additionally issues and objections to Israel’s involvement in addition to the black magic ceremonies carried out by Eire. There are additionally many reactions to the presents given to Israel’s consultant Eden Golan. However probably the most adverse feedback are in regards to the winner of the 68th Singing Contest “Nemo” who identifies himself as gender impartial. His inventive thoughts is superb as is all the setting of “The Code” however his identification as impartial has negatively “stirred” the viewers. The spectacular Frenchman with the great voice possibly must be larger however sadly it isn’t simply the voice that counts. Greece and Marina Satti tried however didn’t enter the highest 10 regardless of having loads of supporters and ended up in eleventh place. In the meantime, Cyprus with 17-year-old Cilia Kapsis is in fifteenth place, however her future is predicted to be vivid. That is what occurred on the Eurovision Tune Contest. It was not a number of. What we maintain is the love that each one the contestants had for ‘Nemo’. The 68th Eurovision is over (the best way it ended) and we’re ready to see what else we’ll see within the subsequent one which will likely be held in Switzerland.
GIORGOS PAPOUTSIS
Eurovision from the reverse and the melody of chaos
A brand new chapter has now opened in Eurovision being a theme that as a substitute of beautifying and entertaining the world disturbs it by turning it into stone as if it sees the jellyfish from mythology from the irreverent content material provided by the 68th Eurovision contest. The place to start from the track of Eire that solely melody of happiness you cannot inform, however ceremony within the black darkness of evil. If that is thought-regarding a track, we’re in all probability not strolling accurately on the trail of our society. A track which confirmed completely no historical past, custom, tradition and love for Eire. However in comparison with the track of Eire in 1996 the place he had additionally received the competitors with Imaar Heaney with the track The Voice. A track that provided the world the above talked regarding traits (custom, historical past, tradition).
It endures different revelations we now have following which Finland went with a track that ought to have gone black for the disrespectful and obscene content material that the artist provided by actually taking off his garments and as you all who watched Eurovision noticed an indecent picture was actually distinguished in a contest watched by households with babies. For Spain what regarding males striptease in a number of phrases fireplace will fall and burn us.
The icing on the cake goes to the winner of the European music competition in Nemo from Switzerland the artist considers himself a impartial factor, if potential. Apparently he would have missed biology class once more then at college which talks regarding two leaves, female and male. As for now the track was good it had good orthophonies and proper intonation. However the situation is totally different, why current your self dressed as a ballerina and say publicly what you might be, this isn’t proper since you are additionally watched by babies who will likely be influenced by what you present. As soon as upon a time Eurovision had ideas and respect on this planet in the present day sadly it does not exist should you really feel one thing regarding your self maintain it to your self and you will not drive it to simply accept it saves and good. Cacophonix from Obelix and Asterix is a talentless singer however the optimistic factor is that he respects as a result of he has ideas and establishments. One thing that Nemo and the remainder of the artists do not have. So why did not the next contestants who actually deserved it win like France whose singer has an incredible voice that made us all shiver, Armenia who provided a cheerful rhythm of music, Austria who provided a dynamic tempo, Croatia who performed rockies, Italy, Ukraine and Israel who provided stunning songs and Marina who gave all the things and naturally might have been within the prime ten. From this 12 months’s competitors, there have been few good songs and sadly extra unhealthy ones, which by no means confirmed a spectacle however of a telemarketer that promotes improper requirements. I hope that the nice years of Eurovision that all of us beloved, like e.g. the track “Dschinghis Khan”, “Like a Prayer” by Elina Konstantopoulou in 2000 with the Olsen brothers successful the competitors, Dima Bilan in 2008 who received the competitors with Russia, Turkey in 2009 with “Dum Tek Tek” and naturally Elena Paparizou who had received Eurovision in 2005. These and plenty of different Eurovision songs which can be in her superb previous. As a result of once more then songs had creativeness, insanity, rhythm, enjoyable, comedy and most significantly respect on this planet.
ODYSSEAS FORTOUNISS
Beelzevoula and the village competition!
For a full 68 years it was the largest celebration of music and track, however this 12 months it wasn’t only a celebration because it was a present of utter – forgive me for what I am regarding to say – mockery. The occasion that following united the peoples of the world with the slogan “United by music” which implies “Music unites us”, this 12 months as a substitute of uniting us it utterly divided us. The competitors was overshadowed by numerous occasions such because the disqualification of the Dutch consultant when he harassed an individual within the group shortly following the tip of the second semi-final, and even by the incidents that happened on Saturday within the metropolis of Malmö, a number of hours earlier than the beginning of the ultimate. However there have been additionally deviations that made the occasion worse than a circus, with Eire sending… Beelzebub (!) as a substitute of a human being and as a substitute of a track, he had a ceremony unsuitable for hearts bordering on black magic! Even worse was Finland’s participation with the singer showing bare on stage! What folks have been seeing on their televisions, this tradition shock, how come he did not consider that? The winner of this 12 months’s competitors was “Nemo” or Nemo with the track “The code, which gave the primary place in Switzerland following 35 years. Thankfully, nonetheless, we additionally heard good songs from Italy, France, Armenia and even Croatia, who have been among the many favorites to win. Subsequent occasion in Could 2025 in Switzerland which we hope will likely be higher and never like a village honest.
