Who will win the 68thEurovision Song Contest, succeeding Loreen, the Swedish winner of the 2023 edition? For the time being, it's still too early to say, but the predictions are multiplying. According to the bookmakers, the Swiss candidate and the Croatian representative are among the big favourites. But there are still a few weeks to go before the final outcome. Until then, anything can happen.
On the Eurovision Youtube account, some songs are viewed more than others, perhaps setting a trend for what's to come. So, which video is currently the most viewed on Youtube? Which clip dominates the ranking? We answer.
To date, the official video posted by the Dutch candidate has the highest number of views on the Eurovision Youtube account, with 18 million!
The video by Joost Klein, this year's candidate from the Netherlands, is well worth a look. Funny and quirky, the video reflects the image of its performer, who is one of the 5 bookmakers' favorites, thanks to his song " Europapa ".
In second place among the most viewed videos on Youtube at the moment is that of Ukrainian duo alyona alyona & Jerry Heil, also ranked in the top 5 favourites according to the bookmakers.
The video clip for their song " Teresa & Maria " now boasts 4.4 million views. The duo is made up of alyona alyona, considered one of Ukraine's most popular female rappers, and Jerry Heil, who has become an ultra-trendy artist back home.
In third place was the clip from Israeli candidate Eden Golan, viewed 3.9 million times.
On the other hand, her song " Hurricane " is - for the moment - not one of the 5 favorites of the contest according to the bookmakers, who currently rank her 9th in this 68th edition ofEurovision.
Just behind, we find the video of the Greek candidate, Marina Satti, with her song " Zari ". To date, the video has racked up some 3.3 million views.
Finally, in fifth place among the most-viewed videos on the Eurovision Youtube account, we currently find Polish candidate Luna with her song " The Tower ", which has 2.7 million views.
What about France? So far, the official video for Slimane 's song " Mon amour " has racked up 1.5 million views, while the artist was one of the first candidates to unveil his chosen title for the contest.
So, are these views a good indication of things to come? The answer will be given on May 11. Let's not forget that these 5 countries still have to pass the dreaded semi-finals in order to qualify for the grand final. Ukraine and Poland will unveil their performances on the first evening, May 7, while Greece, Israel and the Netherlands will take part in the second semi-final on May 9.
