Switzerland SWITZERLAND 2021 - Gjon's Tears - Tout l’univers

[escYOUnited]

Laisse le vent qui frôle
Sa main sur mon épaule
Le vide dans ma tête
Pas la moindre cachette

C'est l'aube qui décline
Derrière un champ de ruines
Le moment de grandir
Ne pas te retenir

Je vois derrière nous des morceaux de toi
Et ce que la douleur a fait de moi

Tout l'univers
Nos deux cœurs sous la terre
Au milieu des failles où tout éclate
Se trouver au point d'impact
Sans toi

Que deviendront nos souffles
S'ils restent sur le bord?
Cet amour qui nous tord

Je vois derrière nous des morceaux de toi
Et ce que la douleur a fait de moi

Tout l'univers
Nos deux cœurs sous la terre
Au milieu des failles où tout éclate
Se trouver au point d'impact
Sans toi
Derrière mes paupières
Trouver de l'air

(Ah)
Tout l'univers
Nos deux cœurs sous la terre
Au milieu des failles et des ressacs
Nous nous retrouvons au point d'impact
Comment soigner nos coeurs qui éclatent?
Tout l'univers​

 

[Lance Esgard]

I saw the one minute RTVE clip and had a much more positive impression than from the rehearsal clips.

 

[marty]

Good luck to Gjon for tonight!

 

[gingerale]

I'm really looking forward to see tonight's performance. I'm never been this happy with an artist and song from my country. And I think he is very cute with a great personality. Allez Gjon!

 

[GermanBango]

I saw a vid of his jury performance... Flawless vocals.

 

[Chorizo]

An interesting song with a beautiful music video but from what I've seen, the staging looks rather ugly. Why is he dressed so badly?
His voice and vocals will surely draw attention. 12 points from me.

 

[GermanBango]

Goosebumps!

 

[Ianp16]

I'm sorry but that performance did NOT suit the song and made it cheesey. The song is stunning and the performance was too camp. It was a bad contrast. He looked like a glamorous lesbian auntie that had escaped onto a white concrete building site. It's a no from me. Sorry.

 

[Elina UA]

Song is stunning. Vocals are amazing. Stage presence is perfect. The staging is just weird.

 

[Brandt]

My impression on the song was always average, but the performance made me fall for the song. He is among my favorites after what I have seen tonight.

 

[Franzilein]

Watched the semi with my boyfriend. This was the one which caught his intention. He basically talked throughout the whole show, but these three minutes he was as silent as a mouse. Gjon nailed it, he is simply a class above everyone else – at least in this semi.

Same with my boyfriend

 

[Fluke]

I think we can call winner at this point. Nothing but a complete and literal disaster in the finals could keep him from winning now!

 

[cegs5]

It was the only song with winning vibes tonight. I’m not a fan of the staging though... personal taste, but I understand it is impactful and memorable, definitely many people would appreciate that kind of choreo and stuff. For me, the song itself is good and the vocals were on point, so I’d be happy to see them doing well on the final ranking.

 

[A-lister]

Great vocals, expected and deserved qualification, although I am still not super about the song (it's ok though, but it's an odd song where the verses are much better than the chorus).

I can see it top. 3 with the juries in the final, a top. 10 in general would be deserved but personally wouldn't put it higher than that.

Nevertheless, congrats to a deserved qualification

Next time you should gag him. My bf was well behaved, thank god!

 

[John1]

A top 5 is quite achievable, but let's not forget that Bulgaria, France, Italy and so on will be all there in the 2nd half (if he drew the 2nd half, I didn't even bother to watch the press conf)

EDIT: ok OOF he drew the 1st one, lucky gjon

 

[tararaaam]

Well, that’s what I call pretentious.

 

[Franzilein]

Next time you should gag him. My bf was well behaved, thank god!

Yeah, he's a casual viewer and usually doesn't even bother with the semis. Had to make a compromise: he must watch, but he may talk

 

[Sammy]

How badly the rehearsal video portrayed this performance. Or the other way round: amazing what cut und framing can make out of a rather awkward performance. Either ways - after tonight I can understand what people like about this. I don't dislike the song, but it's still not near my top 10. Nevertheless - congratulations. He seems to be a very nice guy and I wish him the best - as long as he doesn't beat Barbara.

 

[Nicfedy]

Love the way he laughed when they showed the snippet of Blas doing his falsetto
