Exactly!

U joking? Her voice is somewhat gone...

The best Eurovisión performance by far

Magnifique. Interprétation de Patricia kaas. Exilent. Bonne journée à. Vous

@@elaela7098 your ears, on the other hand, are totally gone!

Mine too :-)

Armond Ghazarian yes you are right. She is just like Celine Dion. Also a great French diva. Sad that its so underrated

Armond Ghazarian that's why she won

Aziza Alkan Celine Dion actually is Canadian and sang for Switzerland :D

Incroyable performance, pur, puissante et mesurée, un véritable chef d’œuvre, précis et délivré impeccablement par une grande artiste avec une grosse présence sur scène

this is a million times better than voila

@@ggoddf5889 It's not.

И я того же мнения!

@@lucaswallo8127 It is. Voilà is a very good song and deserved that second place, but this entry is just out of this world.

Well, in 2001 and 2002 there were really good singers, Natasha St Pier and Sandrine Francois......

This is my favorite song that has ever been in Eurovision. Although I don’t understand French, Patricia’s performance is much more than just words

Paris is not france

This should've won. End of.

Ja! Yes !

Yes iconic and legendary. definitely classy!

I miss your comments on all Eurovision videos always i found one aha (your picture is so funny 😂)

@Abu Chimaev : I agree with you

@@Christophevalere oui c'est ça ! C'est une de mes chansons préférées ❤️

Hard agree. Stunning.

To be fair, the juries put her on 4th place which saved her overall ranking. Just behind the 1st and 2nd of that year and behind UK. For some reason.

THIS IS PURE FRENCH CLASS

muito bem dito seda

Yep it's a masterpiece, The crescendo is carry so is the Voice of Patricia. I can't stop playing this song. It's so merveilleux it hurts.

She deserved only one position... 1st! Televote 17th!!!

This one was certainly more 'divine' than their 2008 entry..

You are so right. She should've won.

Esc Mike thanks you 🇫🇷

Esc Mike patricip

Totally agree with you)

2009 is the best year of ESC history there are too many good songs so.. it couldn't win

that was nice. well done

They even started clapping after her first sentence

Patricia Kaas is quite beloved in Russia. Probably the most famous French singers out there (Lara Fabian is famous as well, bit she is Canadian-Begian). So, for the audience it wasn't just another unknown contestant singing, but a chance to see an international star on the big stage. No suprise that Russia gave France the highest score of all the countries that year. Such a great song, indeed.

In 2009 France is 4th in the juries votes but 17th in the televote.

The draw destroyed it for the televote.

It's not the draw, is the mediocre audience.

The best from France!

Federico Rosso ☝☝☝☝☝☝☝☝☝☝

100%❤

Jonathan Hodgson I knew I’d find you here somewhere! Grade A Stan.

I see they followed your advice for 2021. Barbara praviw as an excellent singer and the song was just 👌

Merci.votre commentaire est tellement vrai.

on aimerait tellement que la Turquie revient dans le concours

that's a typical French accent actually

Actually I precisely think that her R's were waaaay too harsh. Normal R's are not this raspy. Maybe an Alsatian trait...

@@Zdrange03 She's Alsatian? That would answer my question about her surname.

@@arvantsaraihan5777 She was actually born in that region.

@@the_mindaugas She was born and raised in Lorraine.

True. She's more than a great singer and performer. She's in another world. She's truly exceptionnal. I have goosebumps and tremors. It's 2024 and she's still there.

And best ever since

George Austin Tay true!

Jey Cordova-Del Rey wow. You and I are literally the same person

You are always welcome to visit Belgium. Toujours bienvenu en Belgique 😊🇧🇪 elle est une des meilleur 👌👍❣️

This performance is so artstic and alluring. It reflects the French culture and with that performance France retrieved its old prestige in Eurovision. This is not dated or obsolete. Otherwuse it is so french, genuine with such quality. Commendable effort for France

"This song is so special to me, it was my mom's favourite..." Oh. I am so sorry for your loss😔😟 I hope you are doing great now...🙂👍

One of my favourite Eurovision entries of all time - it’s so authentically French, timeless but evocative. I’d loved her to win or place higher. So pleased France sent a not dissimilar entry this year and that it almost won.

absolutely...may be another time.......so emotionnal like Piaf was

But still, Kaas is on another level. I think she competed in the wrong year. No chance against Rybak. 2010 or 2011 she would have had decent chances to win.

Thank you very much for posting the lyrics. I loved the song without even knowing the words, she really sings from heart to heart❤

And the juries mind you.

Only thanks to coming 4th with the juries though. She ranked 17th with the televote :/

That's why I don't mind the jury's. Most of the time they vote for what they like and not what their neighbour is.

It's because of the juries. Bringing them back was the best decision the EBU made in a long time.

+setheurovision94 agreed.

Bizim Sezen Aksumuz bu abla :D

the UK as well

ERR WHAT ABOUT TURKEY

@@naerokathgor No I'm sorry as much as I love Dum Tek Tek it's not winning material

The UK also had serious winning potential

@@noahbowie5985 I adore Andrew Lloyd Weber but that song was too mediocre for him. The performer and the presentation was nothing impressive either. For me 2009 was the only year in this century when the UK was overrated in Eurovision.

Most televoters don't.

That's why I love the juries. They usually appreciate high-quality music and amazing voices.

I'm just going to interject here and point out that juries helped Måns Zelmerlow win in 2015. Il Volo won the public vote...

Well, to be fair, both Heroes and Grande Amore were pretty overrated. :P It's like a duel of kitch. :P If you ask me Polina deserved the victory far more. x'D

+Chippaponi I smiled when I read your comment. But sadly, this is true :( +Argy EIL That's why we NEED juries (as long as they do their work properly). Look at the Turkish song in 2007. This wasn't worth for a 4th place.

alex lghd un succès relatif puisqu'elle a perdu

alex lghd idem pour moi

Mike PL Yes, and 1988 too.

Greece agrees ☝️ 👏

@@KiRi0077 ακριβώς!

@ muusicisart - This song tells about a woman who's expressing her deep love to her partner (husband, boyfriend... his status isn't mentionned). She feels that he's slowly leaving the relation between them. It's not clear: no proof, no real piece of evidence. It's subtle, only implicit. She only feels it. His eyes are telling the truth she has guessed. Thus she poetically explains that if she had the power she could do amazing awsome things & be much more committed in their bond only to make him stay with her and still love her. Her only goal is to make this love last much longer. This song is a very deep poetical declaration of love with all the beauty of a honest feeling. Actually, what she sings can be summed up this way: "I feel something... but I will do my best to let U know how much I love U & will stay determined to make this feeling between us stay true." The main idea of this song is implicit. This si why, I think, lyrics are so beautiful: the meaning of words has to be grasped intuitively and guessed. I'm French. This song is really good: music and lyrics that convey so much deep emotion. Moreover, the fact that Patricia Kaas performed it on stage made the whole thing be iconic. The end of the performance when she's dancing and salutes the audience gracefully is just... perfect. Pure elegance.
