France - "Sognu (Dream)" - Eurovision Song Contest 2011 - BBC One

[sotos458italia]

Jizzing in my pants

[Smiquli]

The reason why Amaury Vassili didn't win the Eurovision 2011 is because this song isn't entertaining enough, it's just a beautiful song with a great voice without clowns jumping around.

[IrishKeshiHead]

I'm kinda sad that he didn't keep the same pitch as the music video.. This was perfect.. the live version just sounded wrong for amarury.. he's meant to be a tenor.. they should of left him at the most comfortable scale.. But nonetheless it was a great attempt.

[pokemonlatias]

this is really good. honestly, i didnt like azerbaijan that much...i could count off MANY countries that should've been ahead of them. for instance, THIS and UK's.

[Hardygag]

This should have won. Azerbaijan was a pure embarrassment

[krysolov]

awesome song, but what a crappy video :-(

[collegecluny]

Pourquoi vous traduisez tout le temps???? vous les anglais vous faîtes vraiment chier le monde à vouloir toujours tout traduire. Vous n'apprécierez pas qu'on traduisent vos chansons (qui ne veulent rien dire car c'est toujours question de sexe dedans) alors essayez de ne pas le faire même si c'est Français.

[TheMmuzi]

this music is good but azerbaijan music is the best!

[ZombieGirl345]

if his hair was blond, he would look EXACTLY like france from hetalia

[ProudToNotBeRacist]

@ZombieGirl345 Interesting, because France, Denmark and Finland's entries look almost like their Hetalia characters... :)

[signadd]

@ZombieGirl345 I agree!

[JakeezGtag]

epic face at 2:50

[sudaba2009]

if he were managed to sing better on the stage he could have gained far better result but he totally failed his live singing

[JakeezGtag]

EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Satanicuslupis]

In my opinion by far the best of the entries. This was far less brash to the eardrums than most of the other poppy entries

.

[doomster345]

France really entered this?

While I agree that Amaury Vassili definitely has the best voice out of all the contestants (it's like honey <3) I feel like France should have known that this isn't the kind of music that would win. Most young people are more interested in music like Azerbaijan's "Running Scared", and that's too bad because this really is beautiful music!

[Stealeeus]

@doomster345 I think they're trying to make people realize this is what real music is! c: France, Italy, and Switzerland were all top favorites of mine this year.

[MrPaulHaw]

@doomster345 I'm 17 and absolutely adore this song! :D

[musicalfan2011]

@doomster345

I'm 13 and one of my favourite songs is Giorni Dispari from Ludovico Einaudi ( Which isn't really modern). And I really hate Operas cause the stories are almost never really good. But this was clearly one of the best entries!

[LadaRay]

Actually, this is my favorite song from that Eurovision and the best voice. Just absolutely amazing!

Too bad he didn't do well in the finals!

[ILoveLocaNails]

Kom poep in een gitaar ja!

[MrBasketweaverman]

vous les gens ne comprennent pas la vraie musique



[atsitl]

it was the best song in that eurovision contest; but I will have to thank eurovision no matter the outcome, because it became known!

[EurovisionHd09]

Definitly,to much for Eurovision!

[monnalitta]

@yamyamaNga

yeap! I am just wonder how and whom does desides there who is the winner? their choises are so strange! another question: do they recieve bribs ? Than it is understood. somewhat

[yamyamaNga]

how, how on earth did this song not win? I'm sorry people, I love Europe but i occasionally wonder were they deaf when voting?

[Domas876]

if eurovision was anyway judged by talent this should have easily won!

[MultiKamelo]

le parole della canzone sono belle.... ma la musica è troppo pomposa forse servivano solo i violini per renderla più elegante!

[GaiadOz]

OMG i came across to this vid n his voice captivated me :O

[Lordloss096]

i realy like this type of French dialect i don't know why but i do... it might be because it is partly Italian i guess

[Bunnyroo7]

@Lordloss096 It's not a dialect, it is its own language. It's also far closer to Italian than French.

[yakuthedemon]

His voice is.....Amazing.....i actually wish i had a better word for it....

[oksanagoro1]

umnichka...bravo 

[IsraelShine]

Beautiful....just beautifuuul. The beauty of Art!!! France.....France.....France!!­!

[CaitlinD1997]

Corsica <3 love that place. only been there 5 times :(

[moske65]

Greetings from Lithuania!

[w543e]

OMNOMNOM ╭_╮（︶︿︶）╭_╮potatoes

[ProudToNotBeRacist]

@w543e I love potatoes :D

[MrCactopuss]

ahh, the simple life

[selenma20]

Ok guys, this is corsican, but it's very similar to italian language. I understand 80% of this song. "Sognu" (corsican)------> "Sogno" (italian).

BTW this song is beautiful and he has a great voice

[crazyperson430]

Why did azerbaijan win??? they were tottally out of tune!

[GishabrunLOB]

@crazyperson430 If France won, then everyone else would say the same thing about France...

[FlavioGirl]

@crazyperson430 thank you!!!!!!!!! I'm still very pissed.........France should have won.......even Italy was good

[MrComment13]

This song put the word "Opera" into "Eurovision"

[XennaXDemyx]

...he is just gorgeous .w.~ and his voice is like an angel <3

plus his name is lovely too~

[2follettiverdi]

i really don't understand why france brought an italian song for eurovision?

[LadyHforHana]

@2follettiverdi that's not Italian, that's Corsian!

Hm, alright, that's on a way the same thing...! Just that Corsica is French, so...

[lauritasaade]

@2follettiverdi Are you fucking idiot?this is corsican,a language from France

[FrenchGirl999]

@2follettiverdi lol u are dumb its not italian

[Amikoforever]

I freaking LOOOVE this song! He has a wonderful voice as well! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

[paokakis]

really? this is all France can do? Opera music from the 1700's? You suck France

[Avvisss]

Is this the most well dressed man on the planet?

[beefylemon]

i like this song :)

[RawrRawrRawr58]

Is it me or does he look like James May? :D

[2011respect]

Seriously best voice of all!!! I liked the winning song but this song and singer = true talent. It combines elegance with passion!!

[jhelvillaruel]

the missing member of IL Divo...

la voix propre que evean

[lauritasaade]

i wanna cry...

so beautiful

[Potat0zilla]

Wow this or Denmark should have one. Eurovision is whack.

[groovyone1811745]

@thetarnishedsoviet, I agree. Nina's direct translation from Serbian to English had much more character than the English version.

[subliminal1013]

Beautiful....nuff said.

[guavallamakonichiwa]

am i the only one who has a fascination with his hair ??

[robbertraoul]

i like the song but france must sing in english that is muts better and than the other country will vote for france ;)

[squirrelywrath321]

Absolutely a great singer. Not mainstream enough for Eurovision though. Sweet song though -from the US.

[love5burgin]

@Shady227315 ia o gura de fan si taci

[nokillings]

he sucks

[totenkopfjoe]

@nokillings and your ugly

[lauritaxful]

why good voices don't win?

many sovietic and jealous countries

10 points from spain

[ukrainaforever]

@lauritaxful Post-soviet countries usually have good entries

[lauritaxful]

@ukrainaforever there are many estonias lituanias lietuvas and countries like that which i don't know how to write because my village is bigger

[ukrainaforever]

@lauritaxful :D

[irisbakkertjes]

ik vind hem echt lekkerding

[FernO94]

Amazing but not eurovisions at all

[ruthiamusic]

I heard this song and it was so beautiful it made me want to cry:) way 2 amazing for Eurovision

[xXjAuli4Xx]

His voice took me by suprise. I love it. With love from America

[ofdrywit]

Dammit, why did he have to be good? I was looking forward to some good old fashioned American French bashing, but no, he had to be talented.... Dammit....

[thetarnishedsoviet]

I wish all the Eurovision contestants would sing in their own language like this, rather than coming up with simple and trite English lyrics.

[MrSquidman007]

The language he is singing in is not French, it is Corsican

[trousis]

greeks knows about good voices.....12 points from GREECE!!!

[karenl1234]

beautiful strong voice we should all celebrate life and create a garden here on earth not based on war, bankers, oil cartels and the such, we dont need em! nice vid

[stefanborkos]

one of the very best,

[yllinu]

非常不错！

[rexmage]

Should go back to requiring songs to be in English only.

[efricke96]

such a amazing voice...not everybodys kind of music, but its just great!

[ShiisaaPR]

funny how he stated in an interview that he'd atleast end in the top 3 lmao!!!

[Gabri3L97]

@ManPokerface Hungary suck dicks,man i hate that country = )

[84hajnici]

@Gabri3L97

Can you tell me why?

[darkgoth89]

@Gabri3L97 Oh, what a pity... Seriously, who cares? Pff... 90% of Romania hates us, so it's not a newness... And calm down, we hate you too! ;)

[MissLovelyAnita]

can some one pleas translet for me, about what he is singing about? ;)

[MrCactopuss]

@MissLovelyAnita imo take a wild guess here, somethin to do with a dream?

[MissLovelyAnita]

@MrCactopuss That part I do know but he dosent say dream all the time...

[OffTimeOficcial]

настоящие дермо хорошо что он не выиграл

[ManPokerface]

HUNGARY WAS THE BEST

[mcntkn]

French people is emotional...

[Deddenson]

the true vinner of eurovision, he won in our hearths

[TheLibke]

Think people, just Think! It is not smart to send opera to eurovision. Even a baby knows that. You need to send songs that gets stuck in your head like popular or jestem. Not this crap!

[Falconeggplant]

@TheLibke Jestem's placement would like to disagree with you.

[marchissimo]

u kiddin' me? c'mon fake boccelli...

[nelloula]

i prefer the last year's song ...allez ola ole :) :p 

[kinyia7]

wow i didnt watch the eurovision i was just listening to the songs and France should have won because not only is this beautiful its full of feelings and in the country's language lol >-<.....can some1 tell me y they were alll singing in english??? like i said i dont kno about the eurovision stuff...

[Mrs7Felipe]

[eha1027]

a wonderful voice and he's hot

[Woodrowtracy]

my respect to France for always putting great music and not trolling the winner's song or something; this is what I call sportsmanship!

Greetings from Azerbaijan! cool music.

[RegardHns]

France is nice // a guy from Sweden ^^

[Mrscarletpimpernel1]

He is so loveable.

[alatarielarfeiniel]

he sings like an angel and he is so beautiful on an mysterious way.

I love his voice and his face. xx

[pierresandler0712]

I totally dont understand anything. But I love this song and his voice. Incredible.

[al1na2110]

very good, TOO GOOD!I'm crying because of this voice! ŠTETA LJUDI NE ZNAJU ŠTA VALJA..( people doesn't know what is realy realy good)

[smaradt]

He got a talent, but things like that just dosen't belong in erovision, peapol, just dosen't understand that kind of talentO_o

[csokiskakaoo]

he has French accent because he is French!

[lunatic8364]

really good. but i doubt this can win on eurovision. eurovision has always been about the "pop" stuff..

[hidro12hendza]

[roundtable5]

@GobbiTito ma perche ti sembra cosi disgustuoso ?a me sembra normale 

[theunknownpieces]

I really wondering how Euro judge the songs entry =.=

[aceflyer89]

There's a good reason why many good singers of Eurovision didn't win. Eurovision wants to keep legends for later. So they give it to young and bands that won't last any more than 10 years...

Case and point - France, Sweden, Norway, U.K., Romania, Belarus ... etc.

[chronocrusader5]

its not everyone's type of music genre but he has an amazing voice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MKDBukefal]

ALL WHO UNDERSTAND WHAT IS MUSIC !!! TYPE KALIOPI BUKLE & NAUM PETRESKI RUM DUM DUM AND LISTEN WHAT IS MUSIC

[TVMADEMOISELLE]

TRÉS CLASSIQUE

[killabotpegasi]

If you only knew what real voice is...

[sodapoplad]

[arturrosful]

Amazing!!! I didn't like song but now I LOVE IT!!!!

[Evasaurrr]

He was TOO GOOD for Eurovision. (:

[enrimatz93]

@Evasaurrr ur right alrough i dont like this kind od music i think he will be famous in america just like andrea bocelli.

[enrimatz93]

@Evasaurrr ur right alrough i dont like this kind od music i think he will be famous in america just like andrea bocelli. He just needs to cut his hair to look more manly hahah but his good singer

[EmlynLuvsSG]

@enrimatz93 Apparently though guys look better with longer hair.... Idk it's just what I've heard

[EmlynLuvsSG]

@enrimatz93  Apparently though guys look better with longer hair.... Idk it's just what I've heard

[yashamaruism]

EPIC

[marronite]

sembra uguale all' italiano xd

[dianamariamusic]

me singing: Running Scared .... click :)) Thanks !!!!!

[RiddleRiddle1000]

Too beautiful song,! This past week since Eurovision, I had to listen to it everyday! Thubs Up for Amaury! :D

And....To those people who keep putting negative comments here: if you dont like, dont watch and let other people enjoy this song peacefully

[fenella0the0doll]

I think more eurovision songs should be like this one :)

[piwke996]

SONG IS BIG SHIT

[Hannesgamemaster10]

@piwke996 You don`t like his Song, don´t hear it. Your Commentary is Shit.

[Duffhead93]

this song is awful, it is one of the worst songs i have heard in eurovision! how it could have been the favourite i have no idea. For once the eurovision voters got it right no to vote for, i dont think he even deserved to come 15th. The song is supposedly a rousing classical opera number, but it doesn’t have that killer hook that people want and is dull and repetitive!

[eurovisionloverana]

@Duffhead93 Listen up you freaky creature..lets see you sing this amazing song..and we see if we hear this amazing voicee..i think we hear a squeaky little hamster try to sing....i voted for this song cause its one of the best entires i have ever heard..and you know what FUCK YOU !! and bdw you need a docter to check your ears..cause i think there is something wrong with them ;)..bye ..YOU SUCK !!..amaury vassili forever :DD <3

[RiddleRiddle1000]

@eurovisionloverana indeed! Vassili is more than just amazing. he is INCREDIBLE! i njoy his songs so much :3

[Duffhead93]

@eurovisionloverana i think someones being a bit obsessive and over the top, im allowed to voice my opinion, i havent critised your opinion despite how much i disagree with it and how over the top it is!

[eurovisionloverana]

@Duffhead93 OHH FUCK OFF !!..YOU DONT KNOW WHAT MUSIC IS..YE YOUR COUNTRY WERE SO LAMEE -.- UNITED KINGDOM 1 POINT :))

[Duffhead93]

@eurovisionloverana sorry wait a minute, where did the UK come and where did france come, i dont think your in any position to critise our efforts!

[eurovisionloverana]

@eurovisionloverana oh come on blue sucks... !! soo gay :DD

Amaury Vassili and Raphael Gualazzi Forever :D <3

[sfsudfuysdgfyu]

best eurovision song soo farrrrrrrrrrr..........

greetings from Brazil, south America

[jag1594]

ooffttt his voice just makes me melt :D :D :D

[7mar8]

I kinda like this song, even though this is not quite my fav style of music. But it's just not eurovision... Still, good song.

[sarutelea]

Nothing interesting. I didn't like that.

Not Eurovision song.

[markee91]

what a load of bollocks this so called eurovision song was its the 1 song in the contest most people around europe fell asleep.

[latgalianboy22]

good song, France!

last week in my town had arrived some tourists from France.was asking the way to campsite.everything was fine, but was problem talking to them, because they didnt get in english at all, conversation was very hard in english that really annoyed me in general. If you, french go to Eastern Europe, please, learn some  english words or in elementary level at least so that to communicate

[jmojca]

@latgalianboy22 Even if he is not good at English, he is the best in singing! I don't mind about the foreign language. I ' m here to hear his voice. :-)

[randal30]

@jmojca His language is Corsican from Corsica, it's very similar to Italian but there are many differences, for example:

Sognu (Corsican) = Sogno (Italian) = Dream (English)

Anyway it's a beautiful song, one of my favourite songs at Eurovision

[6RACIALISM6]

like from Georgia

[yourbestwhatever]

Travel with such a small bag? Pretty unrealistic
