I love that you knew from the start that it was pagan imagery, not "Satanism" - a lot of people jump to that conclusion and it drives me nuts.

About keys It has nothing to do with Irelands entry, but it shows, what a lovely person Bambie Thug are. Ukraine participants were raising money to rebuild one of the schools destroied by russian army and on turquoise carpet wore outfits with many keys, which was part of the promotion. After meeting them, Bambie added keys to theirs nail art to show support. Which is very nice of them 🇮🇪🫂🇺🇦

How to shock an American…? Just let them watch Eurovision. 😂😂😂🎤

Not my style of music normally, but I loved this! Easily one of, if not the best performance in the history of Eurovision. Amd that end shot sent chills down my spine. Crown the witch!

Speechless is the exact reaction i have, Every. Single. Time. I watch this performance, its a once-in-a-lifetime type of performance tbh!

The singer is so talented and the way she commands the stage makes her look powerful

Bambie was 6th in the jury voting 6th in the televoting 6th overall 😂

Thanks for this great reaction, it was awesome to see your face watching this performance for the first time 😊 Bambie calls their genre ouija-pop. They are an independent artist just like you, with incredible creativity in their small team. Can highly recommend the Intimate version of Doomsday Blue, and Tsunami 11 : 11 official video.

Our Monarch and Saviour Bambie Thug says: "Avada Kedavra (the killing spell in harry potter) I speak to destroy" Thia is easily one of the best, if not the best, stagings ever in Eurovision, deserved top 3 at least imo

The costume change mid way is to represent non binary and trans community. That’s why everyone screamed when the costum changed, electric!!!

The first time I watched th1t performance I was SPEACHLESS ! This was insane and my favourite thing is the camera angles work ! Plus they performed so good

I am going at work, can't wait for the evening to see this. Was one of my favourites. Skeptic in the beginning, but the best surprise ever, for me, in this show.

There's another performance of this song called 'Intimite Version' and you should definitely vheck this out to see this song in completely different light

Their performance in the Grand Final is even better, but overall it is just an amazing performance and an amazing song🇮🇪

Oh, that Celtic symbol on her head means, maiden, mother, crone.

Ah yes... A man of culture, I will add your Band to my playlist.

The way they fit SO much into this song, and it’s so out of the ordinary for Ireland and Eurovision, I’m obsessed

Thank you for doing this! I knew you’d enjoy it 😊 … I love her!

Thank you, Awesome reaction! I love this song more every time I listen to it. Looking forward to your Croatia reaction. On another note, have you seen Dance with the Dragon by Dark Sarah? They're a Finnish cinematic metal band. It's a fun song and video. Also, love your songs at the end of your vids. ❤

Your song it really nice !!!

Bambie Thug is my Roman Empire. Please check out more videos by them. Absolutely kills every genre

Thanks for a great reaction ❤ It's amazing that you were able to get the true meaning of the song right off the bat. Plus all of the imagery and nods to ancient celtic beliefs. Extra bonus was getting to hear your track. It's great that you included it. Will be checking out some more of your discography for sure 👍 If you get a chance, have a listen to some of Bambie's back catalogue. Their eclectic style is fantastic. Tsunami and Ritual are some of my favourites. Great MVs too. Made on a shoestring budget, but you would never guess as they are both visually stunning. Bambie will go far, and I am here for it! 🫶

Adea Kedavra is an ancient Aramaic healing spell. "The thing i destroy" that thing being illness. I think the song is about battling mental illness, represented by the inner demon here.

buddy fell in love

I have to admit, I’ve watched your reaction a few times now. lol I love your face when you’re genuinely taken by surprise. You look so happy. Check out her other music on here. She really is a fantastic artist. I love the visuals she gives us. 😊❤

You should watch all the entries of this year, it was one of the best competitions of the last decade, at least in musical quality. And the song at the end is a banger!

Bambie Thug and Nemo became friends. They are both non-binary and connected. It's a beautiful friendship. And they both fought behind the stages... this year's Eurovision was a political sh*tshow. With a disqualification that we do not know the exact reasons and a participation from Israel with a highly political song that should not have been admitted. Pro-peace protests, booing etc. The writing on Bambie's face means "cease fire". First Bambie had to remove it... then it was allowed. Nemo had a non-binary flag and a flag of Switzerland at the flag parade. Even if the European Broadcasting Union allows LGBTQ flags Nemo had to smuggle it in. Then the Italian singer Angelina Mango showed up in the media center and sang Imagine by John Lennon and the French singer Slimane interrupted the last rehearsal to speak up for peace. I loved the artists who fought for free speech. One side was allowed to make propaganda, Russia was banned, and all those who spoke up for the other side were silenced. But the songs were great. It just wasn't all about music. If you want to know about European politics do not watch the news. Watch Eurovision. 😂

Sorry, this is the first time I'm seeing your reaction, but I just have to say you're literally gorgeous. Respectfully.

I love watching your analysis. You catch so many details!

Winneeerrr!!! Me in minute 8:10 thinking 'wait, the best is just to come'...

I dont usually like being ambushed, but for your song here I make an exception. I could definitely listen to that on a train journey, .looking out the window and drifting away with my thoughts

I would also recommend Ukraine and Norway as 'must watch' Eurovision 2024 entries.

also the fact that she can sing while doing those ballet moves and with that lapel microphone, she has such great control and range of her voice, a lot of ppl disliked the song, but bcs they don't know how to appreciate the music... 😮‍💨

Her screaming was far better in the final performance, check it out if you like.

ireland was amazing!! and btw bambie uses they/them pronouns. ireland only placed 6th, and it might be bc so many ppl who would have supported them boycotted eurovision this year due to israel's participation. it's also crazy that every artist only gets 3 minutes or less and they managed to fit in so many twists and breakdowns to add more intrigue. one of my favorites of the whole competition.

Please, react to this year Ukraine entry 🇺🇦. They and Ireland had the best staging, but in quite different ways. It's beautiful and spiritual. Love your reactions 🖤

You would've enjoyed the Grand Final performance more but the Semi-Final performance gets the point across

She said Tack så mycket, that's swedish and it was preformed in sweden.

They were amazing and I love that you right away thought of pagan rituals and wiccan magic. I read somewhere that the song is about people hurting them in love and then they conjure up their own partner who turns out to be the worst of them all. That's why after the change to the second outfit (which is the colors of trans if I remember correctly) she says how compared to the others their favorite colors is doomsday blue. In the end they destroy the summoned companion.

Totally awesome ! I vote for Bambi from Poland - absolutely brilliant 🎉

This is artistry. More original songs in Eurovision and maybe it will become worth to see Eurovision

Typically the staging is designed by a ‘staging director’ or choreographer, but obviously with input from the artist etc. Generally the performance as a whole (and how well the staging elevates the song) has a BIG impact on the final result, and Ireland definitely won biggest in this regard for this years Eurovision. Bambie Thug was low in the odds (and frankly, their national final performance was very underwhelming), and the rehearsals for Eurovision started and they skyrocketed! If you want to see other examples of stagings elevating a song that’s not necessarily BIG productions etc., it’s recommend France from this year, or France’s or Switzerland’s staging performance in Eurovision 2021. If you want to see some of the stagings that just… didn’t do it for the song, Poland this year is an example or UK in 2021. Also, just a note, Bambie Thug is non-binary and goes by they/them/fae pronouns - you probably didn’t know, and that’s fair :)

Bambie Thug has an intimate version of this song. It's really good

I really think you should react to “Zari” by Marina Satti and “We Will Rave” by Kaleens performances!

Thank you for your amazing comments, and for understanding the song. I will be checking out your music.

"The music just speaks for itself". I got a huge Hans Niemann vibe, the singer actually looks like a blood relative.

I recommend Luktelk by Silverster Belt from Lithuania

Great video as always 😁 if you want to check out songs from earlier Eurovision Song Contest, you should take a look at these! Sweden 2015: Måns Zelmerlöw - Heroes Norway 2021: Tix - Fallen Angel Sweden 2023: Loreen - Tattoo Heroes is one of my all time favourites (I might be bias because Måns a great person!). And I think Tix and Loreen might surprise you 😋

Bambie Thug is at this year's Download festival this year. If you're interested in more from Eurovision, Lord of the Lost were there last year. They're a German goth metal band. The Norwegian goth metal band Gothminister entered the national final for Norway this year too, but didn't win. (some countries chose their entrants to Eurovision via a national final.) LOTL & GM are 2 of my favourite bands.

Reacting please to Ukraine

I haven’t listened to you guy’s music yet but I just know I’m a Nova stan 😂

If no one has told you yet, you should definitely go see One Ok Rock live! They are coming to LA in October at the Kia Forum! I think they are also performing in Toronto.

Subscribed. Your song was class too👍

Thank You for this reaction. If You want to see something that makes You smile, You should make a reaction to Eurovision grand final 2023 runner-up Käärijä with his song Cha-cha-cha, which has been streamed only over 140 million times on Spotify. It's crazy it's party. 🤟🟢🟢🟢😎🟢🟢🟢👍. Greetings from Finland 🇫🇮.

You have to react to baby lasagna rim tim tagi dim next. The grand final performance. He got 2nd place and was the favorite to win. On barely lost to Nemo.

Please watch the live version at Eurovision. It is the best staging in the history of Eurovision.

so the intro and outro they say "avada kadavra, I speak to destroy" which is both a reference to Harry Potter where Avada Kadavra is the Killing Curse and a reference to Abra Kadabra, which according to occultists means "I speak to create" and as such are inversing it.

She doesn't sing "Abra Kadabra", she sings "Avada Kedavra" like in Harry Potter

Do netherlands pleaseeee

Ireland and France were my top 2, but If you're looking for a good laugh, react to Finlands entry 😂

Great reaction. I’m surprised you seem to have not found the diverse UK artist Ren yet? 👍🇬🇧

I voted for Ireland! To me is simple music with pagan roots... more wiccan then satanism. To me she's also a great dancer... maybe I'm wrong. I don't know.

I think it’s something along the line of “cadaver I seek to destroy@. Can’t make out the first bit.

Do reaction to Baby Lasagna

plese react to zari by marina satti eurovision

AVADA KEDAVRA!!😊😊❤❤

🧙🍀❤

PLEASE UKRAINE REACTION 🙏🏻

greatest entry this year for sure!! btw bambie uses they/them pronouns

PLEASEEE react to more billie eilish 😭 its been so long

Like Nemo, they are a non-binary artist. And that song is incredible! I'm talking about yours.

Can you react to Ukraine? They’ve got 3rd place!

just so you know bambie is nonbinary

Avada Kedavra is a killing curse from Harry potter

If you don't mind me saying City Of Sound isn't a great name for the band, how about a name like ke Hidden Agenda or Temperamental or something? Was they yer music after Bambie Thung? ..as good as it was, it was just too ambitious leaving nothing to the listener's imagination, am... how's about scaling it down a good bit? Please take this comment as constructive criticism Cheers 😊 Bambie Thug review was brilliant

CROATIE ! APSOLUTE WINNER !!!

React to Loreen

Do you want to know why part of the lyrics Bambie sings about Jewish I'm assuming you want the real answer instead of religious bias. The truth is Solomon was the biggest witch that ever existed, almost all magic from all religions some way link back to him. God actually gave Solomon permission to do witchcraft in Judaism (Talmud). God gave a ring to Solomon to control demons and speak to animals, one of those demons was Asmodeus. Solomon controlled and commanded Asmodeus help to build his temple. The truth is magic isn't necessarily evil or wrong, the Bible is full of contradictions in itself and in history. Despite mythology of it, magic might be and shouldn't be played with unless you are taking it very seriously and know exactly what you're doing. I think it is mostly misunderstood though. Prayer technically could be a form of magic, people do magic every day without realizing that they manifest their reality
