With Aaah and Oooh: Duncan Laurence wins the Eurovision Song Contest 2019 in Israel for the Netherlands. Germany, however, was only third with a very bitter pill: on jurors still with 32 points, there was a slap in the European audience with 0 points. The evening in Tel Aviv in brief.
"Dare to dream!", "Dare to dream!" Under the slogan a bit like a postcard, the Eurovision Song Contest in Israel was launched for the third time after 1979 and 1999, as one or the other may remember it. to be: Netta was won in 2018 by Israel in Lisbon.
She also made her first appearance and released the stage for the evening 's artists, who paraded in the order of their performances and on funfair rhythms in the hall. And we went on an adventure.
The winner of the evening:
A romantic ballad has traditionally struggled with ESC. Nevertheless, Duncan Laurence was ahead of the bookies with his "arcade". The fact that this is still exciting in Tel Aviv end was certainly due to the change in the announcement of the results, so the management has changed very often Laurence only has 27 points in advance on Italy, but the gap with the third place was already net.
The losers of the evening:
The good news first: nobody got a total of zero points and so not Germany, which was feared by some pessimists a bit. The bad news: in the second division vote, the country juries distributed 32 points to Germany. However, regarding the public decision, Europe gave no points, which was confirmed by moderator Bar Refaeli when announced by a "I'm sorry." The situation has only worsened for Belarus and Britain, who have landed behind Germany.
The show:
Rather conventional. During the break between the appearances and the announcement of the results, different winners and finalists from previous years appeared with their respective titles. It may be a lack of inspiration, but when the 1979 Israeli winner, Gali Atari, whose song "Hallelujah" was sung at the end, participated in a short grand prix Eurovision contest, nostalgic and nostalgic . the moment song.
The suspense of the Eurovision Song Contest 2019 lasted until the end, even if, at that time, the favorite of the house prevails. Superstar Madonna did not make a winning appearance. The whole show in pictures.
The appearance of Madonna:
Madonna may have thought well during her stay in Tel Aviv. Commentator Peter Urban said that during Madonna's rehearsals, everyone had to leave the room.
"You are all winners": with this rather intuitive advice, Madonna made her appearance at ESC to promote her new album, "Madame X". With nearly 200 million viewers around the world, this is certainly not the worst platform. ,
At the same time, a win-win situation for the megastar and the organizers because with their new brand name, the eyepatch, Madonna also visually integrated the key bathroom atmosphere of the & atmosphère atch vis Mad Mad Mad,,,, ESC. With the difference that all participants in CES really sang better than the big star.
The moment "a little finished" of the evening:
There were three: fencing ballerinas, a giant table tennis ball, flower decoration and bird dancers – Greece really did not let it go. To make the overkill perfect, unicorns and kittens were missing. Pity.
Baby cats did not have Icelandic hatari either – you should not even be close to describing their appearance as a Nagelnietenlatexfetischrammsteinelektropoptheater. The bird was shot but Kate Miller-Heidke of Australia. She was allowed to perform on a 5 meter pole on a space background.
Moderation:
The men dressed in black, the old model Bar Refaeli wearing a very slouchy silver dress and Lucy Ayoub wearing a flattering dress and skin color – there is nothing more to report than the outfits of the moderators. Unfortunately, the moderation of Refaeli Bar, Erez Tal, Assi Azar and Lucy Ayoub was not really original nor amusing.
The German appearance:
Michael Schulte reached fourth place last year and the two ladies of S! Sters have achieved the same feat, but only in the order of appearance. In the overall standings, however, only a 24th place was occupied.
The performances of Carlotta Truman and Laurita Spinelli were not so bad in themselves. However, compared to other countries, the sneaky performance cut had the effect of giving little impetus to a song, which was still more worn. The rather ordinary outfits of Spinelli and Truman certainly did not contribute to the value of recognition.
It is therefore not surprising that the performance between all the nonsense, the pathos and the fast rhythms of most other artists has dropped a little. Whether we like the song or not: in the production, the appearance of S! Sters remained under his possibilities. In any case, musically it was not the worst track.
The conclusion:
Visually creative, but musically rather ordinary: this is how the 64th Eurovision of Tel Aviv was presented. With Duncan Laurence's "Arcade" in particular, the European public opted for the most inoffensive song, because it suited the masses. The Italian Mahmood had with his rap song "Soldi" much more raw and had scored in second place a deserved success.
But with its many and many calls for exclusion and intolerance, the CES 2019 was an even bigger sign at a time when hate, nationalism and racism were wandering back into the world. Europe. And in the end, even Madonna's lines of her new song "Future" match: "Not everyone is looking to the future.Everyone does not learn from the past."
The Eurovision Song Contest 2019 in Tel Aviv offers everything that can be expected from the mega show. Performances with light effects from another world, a lot of emotions and sexy artists.
