📖 GLOSSARY: 📖
► False Vocal Folds: False vocal folds, also called ventricular folds are a pair of thick folds of mucous membrane that are located above the larynx. They close when swallowing to protect the lungs.
► Thin Vocal Folds: When the folds thin out when you go higher in the range. Also known as head voice.
► Falsetto: When the vocal folds are stiff and let out air.
► Thick Vocal Folds = When you are in your chest register (so lower than an A above middle C ish) the true vocal folds are thick, and therefore we call this thick vocal folds.
► True Vocal folds = Vocal cords. They aren't cords at all but folds of tissue and ligament, so we stay clear of you thinking they are like two ropes in your larynx.
► Larynx: the place in the throat where the Vocal Folds / Vocal Cords live.

I don't care that we got such a bad spot this year...I am SO proud of what we brought to Eurovision ❤
It was amazing!!!
Be proud. By far one or the best performances. Love from Sweden.
Be proud as you should, Blanca is the best. Love from Portugal
too many stupid people in Europe, that´s why. You deserve more.
It's such a great song but i feel that it needs couple of listens to get used to
Unfortunately the audience did not appreciate this great, unique and hypnotizing performance, giving her only few points.
Because the performance was just bad and strange… and why. That’s it
@@anybodyhandlebad and strange? Ita called original and traditional. Since when do people come to eurovision for basic generic american fast pop... come on so many good aongs were robbed cause public and jury gave poimts to engliah boring copy paste songw
@@markojovanovic5901 I know and agree with you but the reality are like that. Anyway for me the Eurovision is very stupid competition - better if they could just do some festival to show the musicians and not judge them. Maybe sounds funny but “Woodstock” become history, but every year Eurovision is just discussing national competition and not healthy.
@@markojovanovic5901 Another example of an amazing song that didn’t do great was La Forza. Amazing song, artist and vocals. I loved many of the songs this year, including the ‘generic Swedish pop song’ Tattoo. It definitely wasn’t my favourite but I can understand the mass appeal. I love EAEA and don’t care that it did so badly. Every year Eurovision opens my eyes to so many genres, artists, and types of songs I would’ve otherwise not have known about. That’s what Eurovision is about.
Remember 5 points never forget 😢
It still hurts deep how underappreaciated this was.
She was ROBBED - a wonderful display of modern flamenco and Spanish creativity
Blanca Paloma truly didn't have a bad performance of this song throughout the entire preparty season. Although I did prefer how at benidorm she ended the song with a single long note. But whatever she does she's absolutely spellbinding.
Same! I'm not sure why she switched it up for Eurovision. That ending during Benidorm was more powerful.
I guess because it's how it's sung in the studio version. The single long note is easier to do, you can hear in Esc performance she had to take a breath in between. I guess that's the only slight mistake she made.
@@austejasarkaite1430 Yeah I heard it but it wasn’t much a mistake because it sounded fine still in my opinion. And as long as it didn’t affect her overall performance, its not a mistake (in my opinion.)
@@Fatasha776 yeaah, I just meant maybe the Benidorm version was more powerful/polished, maybe a couple of points could have been added for her in that case, but I don't personally even think it was worse :D I was mindblown when I first heard she pulled off this studio version note ❤
The final note was a risk they chose to take because it is far more difficult to perform live than the long-held-note (some of us, who were rooting for this song from the beginning, really wanted to hear the studio note from Blanca Paloma during her live performances). This final note (studio version) was meant to get additional jury votes given its difficulty -even Blanca's team acknowledged how difficult that note was for Blanca Paloma during the studio recording. What some people do not realize is that Blanca Paloma risked it all during the final note as it could have gone very, very wrong -as an example, Alessandra (Norway) with her whistle tone which she failed to deliver correctly more than once during her performances. Blanca demonstrated such high concentration and dominion of her voice on that stage in such a nerve-racking moment during this performance.
Everybody thought (me included) that will get a top 5 place (or top 10 at least) but last place with the public is a crime. Sorry
She's using flamenco scale which is somewhat similar to the phirgian scale. I believe that's what's throwing you out.
This is the reaction I was waiting on. Most def, that belting in the end was worth EVERYTHING. In my opinion, she had the best vocals out of everyone in 2023. People may not liked the song (as they failed to understand it as it is is quite profound in lyrics, and they may also failed to understand the flamenco [bulería] undertone) but her vocal capacity is truly undeniable.
This deserved to win BY FAR, it was glorious, the ending gave me shivers, felt that in my soul and yet, the people weren't ready for her. Their loss.
The ending gives me Goosebumps every time because it is very, very difficult.
She was one of my favorites this year. She was absolutely amazing. She deserved more points ❤
Sorry but your opinion didn’t meet others 😢
@@anybodyhandle This opinion meets the majority point of view....sorry...
@@hlloret sometimes life is just not fair … sad but true. Don’t worry, I wish your Blanca great future - and Good Luck 🍀👍 I really don’t like the Eurovision competition and the judgment could be manipulated by broadcasters. Better be some international festival just show … lately I watch guitarist Marci Patrzalek or switch on “Mega Hits The Beat Of Deep House Music-Mix” always updated and beautiful nature and places to dream to see -videos. Just relax.
@@anybodyhandle please, relax .. Blanca Paloma deserved win this Festival. It was Quality....
@@hlloret and she didn’t win - and what you want to do about? I’m not world judge of Eurovision broadcast- Is history. English or Spanish language dominates in music industry. I’m going to see the Imagine Dragons in concert and go forward with my life. Blanca Paloma was incredibly unique in her performance and is going to be successful. The stupid Eurovision is not end of the world. Music is to enjoy our lives but not stress. Big kiss from me to laugh or get some smile 😊.
I'm glad you caught this one. When you said in your Marco Mengoni video that you were going to look at the top ten, I thought you'd miss Spain (she didn't get the points she deserved, but she does now have a record deal). As someone else mentioned, she nailed the vocals every time she performed it. She's also a delightful person
Sooo many requests for this one! Thanks Ian. She is amazing.
Very Beautiful song and wonferful voice and singer🤩👏,but so underrated...😔😡 Greetings From Italy🤗👋🏼
Specially ur country is showing has something agaist Spain songs every year...and it is not about taste... 0 Slomo the only one... this year voting unikorn...
This performance was one of the most atmospherical and magestic ones I have seen in ESC. Captivating, talented, so cool and beautiful and I just wanted to listen to it withought being interrupted. I listen to it on repeat
This was my winner ❤ don’t care about the points
Hello, greetings from Spain, Paloma was spectacular. I hope you can see the prepartys, it's a different version. A longer entrance and the end a long note. Thanks for valuing it.
EUROVISIÓN DEJO DE SER ARTE HACE MUCHO TIEMPO
Yess!! More Eurovision! This is why I'm subscribed haha
Me too🤗😉
@@gabritata8359 Me three
will never understand how finland got so many jury points when france and spain were right there
Finland was bad.
Thanks for the reaction :) I was thinking during this that, if you'd be keen once you're done with this year's reactions, I would really love to see you react to Ukraine's 2021 entry as well, 'SHUM'. The vocal performance there is extremely unique and it would be very interesting to hear your analysis.
For those who believe televote is a musical bible: the fact every single country got more televote points than this amazing song (especially Poland, Croatia and many other joke entries like these, with incredibly weak vocals) proves there are many people who watch Eurovision and aren't able to understand the quality. They only vote for the craziness and weirdness, but Eurovision is much more than this. You can make an awesome show (like Israel did) or simply create art on stage (like Spain did), but when the musical knowledge is low, of course this stuff happens. :D
Croatia's wasn't a joke entry, it was a protest song! More performance art than musical art, perhaps, but it shouldn't be written off as a joke in my opinion. It has its merits.
It was a true masterpiece indeed, just because it mocked Putin...
Well i understood quality of her singing... but i dislike the song. And FYI I like most others vote for song/songs we like best. Cause esc is not a singing contest it's a song contest..
Probably you voted for Finland, quality indeed!
@@tennisradu no i did not as I am a Finn
Diva Blanca Paloma!!! Art!!! Vocal!! Creatividad!! ❤️Queeeeeeen!!!
Thank you for reacting to this gem! It's crazy that the public ranked her last with only 5 points! The vocals, the performance and the staging were top-notch! 🔥🔥🔥
React to Mónica Naranjo "Europa Live OT" the best singer in Spanish! You love her
So.. cool 😍👍👌🙏
Can you do Estonia 2023 Eurovision? Her song is Bridges
Can´t wait for this!😆
You should definitely react to the winners of Eurovision. I highly recommend you: 2014 Conchita Wurst, 2012 Loreen, and 2016 Jamala ❤
hi zoe try this Putri Ariani receives the GOLDEN BUZZER 2023 try not cry or goosebump this indonesian singer she sing from a soul
Thank you for this reaction...! Why do you think Europe televoe gave this masterpiece just 5 points...? Thank you again...
What?! 5 points?! Wtf?!
It's even worse.... 2 points were thanks to the rest of the world's voting.
Would love to see you react to France 2023 entry "Evidemment" from La Zarra
Can we see Switzerland? I'd love a review of a male singer with a lower voice
France next! This series has been great!
Zoe continued Putri Ariani's reaction to getting a golden buzzer on America's Got Talent from Indonesia
React to Estonia please it is very good
Could you react to Croatia's entry? 😎
continued Putri Ariani's reaction to getting a golden buzzer on America's Got Talent from Indonesia
Doing my best to get it out today Mas.
I have to waaaiiittt??? 🤣😂😅
I've been wanting to work on my vibrato, I just can't get it right! Got any tips maybe about that? Or maybe even something more similar to Blanca's technique
It would be better if you people , had voted for her. Please go to school to learn how to sing....
Albania nextt
Its sooooo sad she was last in televoting like how did public give her last place ita not real
Read that you are a Kiwi now living in Germany, if your confident in your german id love to see a Analysis for Knorkator.
Why hello. I speak fluent German ;) I would love to. Let me take a look, I don't know them
She was so ROBBED it should be illegal
This BARELY made it into jury top 10 (wtf) and got last place at the public vote.. Yeah..this performance got the same amount of televote points as Manel Navarro with his boring song and his iconic voice crack at the climax, I don't know how to feel about it xD
I l8ike both of these songs, both got robbed, imo.
Other great songs to react to: Austria Czechia Estonia Croatia Lithuania
You should cover Slovenia. The lead singer reminded me of Harry Styles. You will only understand what I mean by watching.
The performance is perfect! Sadly I got a headache after listening to this song😅
U all horrible taste
I really dont know why this happens to a lot of people, I listen to it every day and never have a headache.
That usually happens to the Swedes, they are only used to copies of songs that don't give them a headache 😅
Do Albania too please... 2021 even better
Oooo I haven't seen that one ;)
@@ZoeStibiVocalCoach Albania always sends great vocalists... 2018 was an outstanding make voice as well
Please 🙏🙏🙏 reaction AGT amerika got talent : putri ariani 🇮🇩
Zoe is not label promoter of your national superstar 😂😂😂
The start especially sounds very Middle Eastern /North African
Greta!!
I really don't get, why this masterpiece was last in the televote, I really enjoyed it, my cousins loved it, and I don't get, why Finland, Norway, Moldova, Albania, Poland, Italy, but MOST OF ALL; Croatia, did get so many points from the public. Or Belgium. Or Ukraine. I prefer Spain over all of them and she's still my number one, but maybe I just don't understand anything about music or art, but this doesn't exclude me from having an opinion about songs. And her vocals also weren't as bad as everyone says, I also didn't hear a voice crack.
I thought her voice was fabulous!!! I had no idea why it did sooo badly
@@ZoeStibiVocalCoach I don't get it either, hopefully, she's gonna have a career after that.
the echo in that room is almost painful
Please react to albania's entry🇦🇱🇦🇱
I will never overcome and accept what the audience did to her... deciding the worse one! Since then I will never take eurovision that serious... not good taste and no profesional juries there at all #eurovision shame of it
Quite insane actually that she did so badly. The song js incredible!!
This was always going to do poorly at ESC. The public was never going to vote for it outside of Portugal. She is a brilliant singer and performer. However outside of that this song does just sound like noise to the vast majority of the voting public. It's not even a language thing. If it was Finland would have got a poor score. It's not fun, It's not catchy, it's not something you would ever dance to or sing along to. If anything it sounds like she is in pain. I'm sure some people won't like this comment but it was obvious as soon as she started singing that it was going to be a flop with the public.
This is a sad thing to hear ..... Please....feed yourself with quality sounds....please...
This was one of the first songs of the entire ESC ‘23 season that I felt compelled to put on my playlist; it’s also one of the few and only remaining songs from the season that are still there. I liked it immediately from the first listen, and I’m blasting this song in my car and singing along to it every single time it comes on. So try not to generalize “the public” because you have no ability to comprehend something artistic that isn’t bland and mass-produced-sounding.
@@emeegeeehen Only one country in Europe gave Spain any televote points. That was Portugal and they came 8th in their vote. 360,000 watched the final in Portugal and assuming they all voted that still means statistically they just made it into 5 figures based on previous year televotes from Portugal. 167m watched the final. If only 1% of the viewers voted and everyone voted in Portugal it still was not liked by nearly everyone in Europe who voted. I don't think I'm generalizing the public. I think I'm stating the obvious. I'm sure you love the song. However it was obvious from the moment this was selected by Spain that it was always going to bomb with the public. I discussed this and many other songs on the floor of the final amongst the many nationalities that was there with me and even the Spanish citizens amongst us thought it was going to bomb. If you want to win the ESC you need to stand out from the crowd and this one only stood out for the wrong reasons.
She was far better than Kaarija and not every song is ment to dance on. Glad there was a jury who gave her some descent score.
@@omaewamoushindeiru6581 As I said. She is a brilliant singer and performer and can actually sing live (looking at you UK and Poland as their singers can't). I have heard other songs by her which would all would have performed much better at ESC. And songs certainly don't have to be dance songs to win. EG Serbia, Portugal, Netherlands and Ukraine's songs recently that did win. However this is never a song that would win with the Eurovision public.
I didn't like this song at ESC she is just screaming
huh?
The first half of it is good.
Your comment shows why people didn't appreciate this song. She doesn't scream: You should listen to Camarón de la Isla, who is considered a "flamenco god" singing. You would be shocked. However, there's a lot of screaming, shouting and growling in Heavy Metal and it's completely acceptable. Why not in other genres like flamenco? Open your musical mind and ears.
Doesn't understand Spanish all the meaning of the song. Must be screaming
You are not prepared for this art, as the majority of europeans 🤷🏼♂️😂
