Just been announced that Vasil will sing a self-penned track called "Here I Stand" for Macedonia. My expectations are low after he had one of the most meh tracks of 2020.

Very Disney/Broadway musical...it's not great but I prefer it slightly to "You". Only in a '39th in rankings' to '36th in rankings' sort of way.

Why were Macedonia allowed to flop in 2017 & 2018 and now we have them sending stuff like this

Oh wow, I can see what you mean. I enjoyed 'You' to an extent last year but this is just absolutely not my cup of tea.

Just like Germany and Denmark I’m in the minority that absolutely adores this

Apparently North Macedonia might be pulling out of this year’s contest because of something to do with a Bulgarian flag in Vasil’s video?

Yeah, North Macedonians don't like to be seen as Bulgarians (long story, while there's lots of overlap and their languages are very similar as far as I'm aware it threatens the idea that they are a separate ethnicity and obviously they've had problems with that a lot lately) and the original version of the video Vasil had a Bulgarian flag in one scene.

It was removed in a later upload but there's a huge petition going on that might lead to a withdrawal.
