Eurovision 2022: Watch the Live-on-Tape performances of San Marino, Ιreland and North Macedonia!

The live-on-tape of the countries that participated in the 66th Eurovision Song Contest in May in Turin will be shown this year through the official Eurovision channel on YouTube.

From June 14 to 23, Eurofans will have the opportunity to watch the live-on-tape appearances of about thirty of the forty countries that took part in this year’s contest.

Today, it is the turn of three other countries of the second semi-final. Since the EBU decided to show the live-on-tapes based on the running order of the two semifinals, this means that today it is the turn of San Marino, Ireland and Νοrth Macedonia. That means we will not be able to watch the performances of Australia and Cyprus.

North Macedonia: The final version of “Circles” by Andrea has been released!

Circles“, the entry of North Macedonia in Eurovision 2022, underwent a production revamp. The final version of the song, along with the music video, was uploaded on the official Eurovision YouTube channel.

MRT, the Public Broadcaster of North Macedonia, allocated a budget of 2,000 euros to improve the production of the song, after Andrea‘s victory in Za Evrosong, as the country is one of those that offer financial support to their representative after winning their national selection.

Andrea won Za Evrosong after a draw with Viktor Apostolovski with a total of 20 points each. Andrea was selected as the winner, having received more points from the jury.

North Macedonia: Watch a part of Andrea’s Live-on-Tape performance!

As we previously informed you, Serbia, Montenegro and Northern Macedonia have recorded their backup appearances for the Eurovision 2022 Song Contest in Belgrade after the end of the national final of Serbia.

An excerpt from the recording of the live-on-tape of Northern Macedonia for Eurovision 2022 was released yesterday afternoon. The country’s delegation released the video from behind the scenes of the recording that took place in Belgrade on Sunday.

What is a live-on-tape performance?

In 2021 all of the 39 acts had to film a backup performance as part of the many contingency measures the EBU has put in place to ensure the song contest can happen in May no matter what.

Each act was able to rehearse for as long as they wish for their live-on-tape performance. However, only three attempts over the course of one hour are given for the filming of the performance which is monitored by the EBU. The participating country can choose which of the three performances is to be used. Live-on-tape recordings were not required to be the same as their planned Eurovision performances.

The live-on-tape performances were later shown a week after Eurovision 2021 during the Eurovision Song Celebration, as a way to showcase all of the hard work put into creating the extra performances.

Here’s the entry of North Macedonia in Eurovision 2022 Song Contest:

Eurovision 2022: Three countries are recording their live-on-tape performance in Belgrade!

After Pesma Za Evroviziju ’22, hosted last night by RTS, the contest’s stage was used for recording the live-on-tape videos for Serbia, North Macedonia and Montenegro.

The artists that record their backup performances there, are:

  • Vladana – “Breathe”

What is a live-on-tape video?

In 2021 the 39 participants had to record a backup performance as one of the many safety measures that EBU set in order to ensure that the contest could take place in May, no matter the course of the pandemic.

Each country could rehearse for as long as they wished for the performance of the live-on-tape. However, three performances in the time of an hour were eligible to be part of the tape that EBU would see. The competing countries could choose whichever of the three performances they wanted to use. Live-on-tape performances did not have to be the same as the scheduled performances for Eurovision.

Live-on-tape performances were shown a week after Eurovision 2021, as a way to show all the hard work of the contestants who had to create an extra performance.
