00:00Greetings, everyone, and welcome to my channel. It is time for another reaction video, and today I will be reacting
00:06to Achilles performing Ferto live in the, I think, first semifinal in Sing for Greece.
00:12So this is potentially huge because Achilles is one of the acts that could actually win the public vote. There
00:19is a huge hype surrounding him.
00:21First, of course, he needs to win Sing for Greece, and then let's see. So yeah, but I just really
00:27want to see because, yeah, the song is super catchy, the song is really interesting and fun, but with the
00:33songs like this, as I said in my video reaction, I don't know if I could call the video the
00:39performance in that kind of room, performance for this kind of songs is very important as well.
00:46So yeah, I cannot wait to see the idea for the performance. And I don't want to talk too much
00:52because I want to watch it now. So without any further ado, Achilles, Ferto. Let's go.
01:05Okay, a bit retro. Sashimi tuna.
01:15Okay, it's going for very retro. I love the face.
01:25Kind of Super Mario with Sega Mega Drive backgrounds.
01:37Kicks sounds really good live.
01:56What's that coming out of his mouth? Money, okay.
02:04It's so addictive and catchy.
02:12Pac-Man now.
02:34Oh, this is cool.
02:36Oh, this is so cool.
02:50Alright, it's very fun.
03:10I love, I love everything that's happening on the lads.
03:14Okay, now let's hear the slow part.
03:32Yeah, this part adds so much to the song.
03:39But now.
03:48Haha, yes!
03:58Alright.
04:00It delivered.
04:01It delivered live.
04:03It's very entertaining.
04:03And it follows the song pretty nicely.
04:07I said in my reaction that I saw some snippets and those snippets start and kind of getting a little
04:13bit annoying because they kept popping up and I just heard one part of the song.
04:16And yeah, once I heard it all, once I heard it within the entire story, it was a different thing.
04:20But I kept being reserved until the live performance.
04:25But yeah, this is going to do so well with the public in Eurovision if it wins.
04:30This could win the public vote, honestly.
04:34It also...
04:35Look, I don't want to get into Eurovision as a competition at this point.
04:38I spoke a lot about it already, so I don't want to get into that.
04:41But yeah, I also think that this slower part, the ballad part, he sings really nicely, honestly.
04:47And also, like, the fast part, they sound really good.
04:49It sounds like studio version.
04:51But I also think that this slower part where he showcases his vocals maybe a bit more, that could attract
04:57the jury as well.
04:58So it kind of differs from that kind of...
05:01I don't want to say joke entries for Caria.
05:03I hate that term, joke entry.
05:05Fun entry is the term that I prefer.
05:08It might differ from that part because it has this, like, emotional and, like, vocally powerful moment.
05:14Unlike some other songs which were also very popular with the public in the past couple of years.
05:19I love the retro style of the LEDs.
05:21I love that face of his, which is kind of popping up everywhere in different situations.
05:25It follows the lyrics.
05:27It follows the song.
05:28It just makes sense.
05:29And yeah, it's a very, very good performance.
05:32Honestly, Eurovision ready.
05:33I don't know what much could be improved here.
05:36However, for Eurovision, just maybe adjust it a little bit to the bigger stage.
05:40But he sounds really good.
05:41His energy is insane.
05:42Choreography is good.
05:43Everything is good about this.
05:45It's just fun.
05:46And yeah, I really hope...
05:48I know there are some other favorites.
05:50Evangelia with the song Pareja, which I haven't heard.
05:54But yeah, I really think that if he goes, that he would be a good pick for Greece, regardless of
06:00the competition.
06:01Maybe, I don't know, maybe there is somebody better.
06:03But I think that the overall reception of the public is so huge for Akilas that it's a no-brainer
06:10that he needs to go to Eurovision to represent Greece.
06:13So yeah, let's see.
06:14So yeah, I don't have much to add.
06:18This is fun.
06:19It's memorable.
06:20It's super catchy.
06:21And yeah, if Akila goes and represents Greece, I think that Greece has a really good chance for a really
06:27good result.
06:27And maybe even win the public vote.
06:29There are some really good songs also in the competition.
06:31See Finland catching a lot of buzz.
06:35So yeah, I think this will be an interesting year for Eurovision.
06:39And yeah, that's all I have to say so far.
06:41So I'll see you on Sunday, I guess.
06:44And thank you very much for watching.
