How is Eurovision in 2024 and is there a chance to win in Ukraine?
Again in May and again the whole world is watching the main song event of the year. On May 7, the semifinals of the Eurovision Song Contest-2024 were held in Malmo. Sweden, as the winner of last year’s competition, hosts guests. This Saturday, May 11th will take place. Eurovision final 2024 years. In the meantime, the editorial board "Site" It will tell you how the preparation and the performance of the Ukrainian singers Alyona Alyona and Jerry Heil.
Earlier we wrote that in February 2024 there was a national selection. Then it was decided by voting that the duet Alyona Alyona and Jerry Heil would represent Ukraine at the main music competition. Their song “Teresa & Maria” won the hearts of millions of Ukrainians and people from other countries. The girls took the production and performance of the song very seriously. Therefore, further preparation for the song contest was very serious and responsible.
Of course, the main question that interests all Eurovision fans today is whether Ukraine will win this year. Two years ago, in 2022, Ukraine presented the brilliant number of the band KALUSH with the song “Stefany”. The group took first place, but because of the war Ukraine was unable to host the song contest in 2023. Last year, the competition was held in London as the UK finished second in the competition. Together with Ukrainian stars and performers, the UK hosted Eurovision at a fantastic level. Ukraine took sixth place in the competition with the song “Heart of Steel” from TVORCHI.
In 2024, the honor to represent Ukraine at Eurovision fell to two wonderful talented girls Alyona Alyona and Jerry Heil. The collaboration of two different styles of performance won the hearts of ordinary listeners and professional jury. Preparation for the performance at Eurovision took the performers all their time. The staging of the grandiose performance was taken up by the Ukrainian director and world-famous clipmaker Tanya Muyno. She collaborated with such world-famous performers as Jennifer Lopez, Katy Perry, Leni Kravits, Vera Brezhnev, Nastya Kamensky and many others.
The idea of staging the performance is dedicated to Ukrainian women, their resilience and endurance during the war. The fireworks, which appear in the middle of the show, are a reminder to the world that Ukraine continues to live and work under shells. “Teresa & Maria” is a powerful motivation for anyone who hears it to move forward in spite of the circumstances. To live, to create, to feel, not to hide your emotions. After listening to a song for the first time, everyone has a sense of importance and inspiration.
Instagram Ukraine has been a constant participant in the final performance at Eurovision for 18 years. So, in 2024, Ukraine set a record for the number of appearances at the grand final without a break. No country has been able to participate in the final performances for so long. And although the stakes of bookmakers in relation to Ukraine are not very high, the country once again declared its steadfastness. Whether Ukraine will win again at Eurovision is still an intrigue. While the singers are predicted third place, but the vote can radically change all the prerequisites.
The final of Eurovision 2024 did not pass without scandals. So, after the brilliant performance of Alyona Alyona and Jerry Heil in the semifinals, a scandal broke out in one of the social networks. Polish activists urge their citizens not to vote for the Ukrainian duo. The reason for this strange behavior is the argument that in the fall of last year, Jerry Heil performed this song in a sweatshot with the inscription BANDERAciaga.
Recently, relations between Poland and Ukraine in the political arena can not be called friendly. There is no clear answer as to whether this boycott is genuine. Or it is part of propaganda aimed at a quarrel between two neighboring states. The organizers of the Eurovision Song Contest always emphasize that this contest is cultural, not political. Therefore, let’s hope that all political intrigues will remain behind the scenes and nothing will prevent our duo from performing brilliantly. We will hold our fists for them and wish them a fair victory.
