I appreciate these reactions because when I watch people's reactions I want to hear their opinion and their observations, there's no fun in just watching people sit quietly!

They switched the lead singers, the guy in to the right (Richard) became the lead singer instead of Per. Probably because he was the one who continued in the music business after Eurovision, and was in some musicals, like "Grease", "Hair", "West Side Story". He was also a member of the Swedish parliament for a while (as a substitue while some one else was on maternity leave). The oldest brother, the one who was the lead singer originally, became a lawyer and works at the Musicians Union. The younger brother, the one to the left (the bald one) became a Mormon bishop.

Some fun facts: - The three members of the group are brothers, which like the Hanson brothers, might contribute to those killer harmonies they've perfected. - "Diggi-loo diggi-ley" is a made up phrase that basically just exists to rhyme with the line after it. However, since 2003 there's also a yearly national tour of famous Swedish artists called "Diggiloo", which also spawned a tv show with the same name, which later evolved into our current game show called "Doobidoo". - The literal translation of the Swedish lyrics makes some of the choreography make more sense. Like in the chorus, when they raise their hands in a sort of U shape. The original lyrics there are "And the whole world smiled". So it's meant to look like a smile. - Also, the opening line is pretty much iconic over here. Like, I grew up in the 90's, and I don't even know if I heard the song first or someone quoting the opening lines. The literal translation would be something like "Lightning and thunder. Magical wonders"... So yes. It's basically the Swedish equivalent of saying "Thunder and lightning. It's getting exciting." 😅

These two are a riot 😂 great commentators that have good comments but still focus their eyes on the song and performance ❤

One of the Herrey Brothers (him in the teal shirt, later red) had a small roll in the tv-show Fame (the orginal show from the late 70´s, early 80´s). So since they lived in the US back then, the youngest brother (blue shirt, I think), who was very young when they preformed in ESC, actually had a slight American accent when he talked/sang in Swedish. :D Oh, and the literall translation of the song (well the refrain) is: "Diggi-Loo, Diggi-Ley, everybody´s looking at me, when I´m walking in my golden shoes! I danced around in the streets and the whole world smiled. Diggi-Loo, Diggi-Ley, the sky was opening up! You´ll hardly believe your eyes! Oh, I almost began to fly, in my golden shoes!"

Cool idea to show them a modern performance of that song!

What they actually sing in the Swedish version is "Everyone's looking at me, when I walk in my golden shoes"

I have no idea why, but this was one of the first Eurovision songs I remember my mom talking about. 😂 Always loved it. 🎶❤️

omg i had such a crush on these three back in the day.

This is what the do now: Per is still in to music and a lawyer. Richard is now a Politician and a radio host. Louis is the chief of a Religious school (LDS) in Sweeden.

It's pretty funny to me how in the 2015 video they changed who sings the lead and stands in the middle because he's the only one that stayed famous in Sweden.

They are brothers 😊 Richardt the one in green, was a dancer in the tv-serie "Fame" 😊

Olsen brothers 2000? Also to show them the modern performance from a few years ago? 🥰

Awww I remember watching that show here in the UK. They should repeat it, I would watch it again.

I've always thought that Diggy-Loo Diggy-Lei meant something in Swedish. Guess not...

If you ever film with these ladies, could You include Ani Lorak - Shady Lady (Ukraine) 2008? 10 years later it's still my favorite sassy lady song

That 2as wonderful reaction, hugs from Sweden.

Love your passion even if a don’t hooked on the music 😍 Keep up the good work … 👍

Alex: "So, now we're moving back to 2018..." Me: "Please be Fuego, please be Fuego. They NEED to watch Fuego"

The back drop in 1984 at the time was considered modern. You have to remember LED screens were still 20 years in the future

Fun!!!! However, some day we need a reaction to aminata and elina 😂 Btw, your friends are lovely!

Hi Alex! I know your list is set and you re done with this series' reaction but i do think you should make the react to either Cyprus 2018 or Greece 1993, when Kety Garbí sang a nice ethnic song which was underestimated imo. This entry still holds the unofficial record of a single camera close up (but who can judge the director for being mesmerized by her stunning looks. Btw i can already "hear" Gillian saying "oh wait a minute! Does she wear an underwear?" While Tay lets out this cute and hilarious scream.. once they see her very initial walking in the stage in this gorgeous dress lol. Let them tell us their opinion and try solving this mystery. Does she wear one or not? Haha

I was such a big fan if the number.. I was 5 at that time..

2018? So many good songs

Diggi loo Diggi ley. I had golden boots at my Wedding. And of course in church played ABBA Waterloo. My Wedding. 😂🇸🇪

Diggi Loo Diggi Ley.. everybody is looking at me

Richard Herrey (he in cyan) was a dancer in the TV-serie Fame. In the late, Per Herrey and Richard Herrey have change color

second clip was for celebrate 60 years of eurovision

They keep repeating Miami Vice, what you got to realize these brothers grew up in the US thus the very strong American influence.

Rest in peace Torgny Söderberg -the composer

The swedish lyrics is so much more fun, Herreys are fun and do still perform, around my region in Denmark - Sweden

1984 i said they were going to win the Swedish Melodifestivalen and i was right, then i said to my family that they win Eurovision. And i was right, later that year i got to see them in concert. I was 12 years old.🙃

This song/performance is one of my guilty pleasures, not gonna lie x,D It's so cheesy but catchy at the same time, I can't not love it.

Im from Sweden!

Serbia 2009 song was called Cipela / Shoe. Croatia 2006 had song about Stiletoes

I have the some problem as the Americans - I don't understand Swedish (just the 2nd half of the winning version: ... lightning and thunder magic and wonder .)

The dance moves are mostly lifted from locking - something that came from funk.

I was sooo in love with Louis😂😂😂

Pleaaase, reaction with My Number One by Helena Paparizou!!!

Fingers Crossed the next one is the real winner of 2018... Elina Nechayeva: La Forza

You should show them Denmark 1981 😉

React to Melodifestivalen

Karate Kid vibes... huh?

They're mormons too.

Has anyone reacted to Bobbysocks yet? Hint hint 😉

I prefer 1983 Sweden

You should do more research about the entries before doing the videos. For instance, if you mention "golden shoes", it was obvious that, the song not being in English, someone would end up asking what the golden shoes had to do with it ! There are mistakes like this in most videos of yours. You appear to really enjoy the songs for what they are, but don't really bother to research the subject !
