A nice out of the blue announcement and perhaps a bit more risky than the last few years… hopefully… maybe 👀

Eurovision Asia is the Asia-Pacific version of the most spectacular television entertainment event in the world; the Eurovision Song Contest. The format is currently in development and today saw the launch of the official website EurovisionAsia.tv.

 

The EBU's production partners are working together to establish the Eurovision format in the Asia-Pacific region, bringing together up to 20 countries to compete in one extraordinary live annual Grand Final. Eurovision is coming to Asia!

 

When the Eurovision Song Contest was launched in 1956, just seven countries sent acts to compete. Today over 40 countries, from Iceland to Azerbaijan, take part in the annual music event. While the number of countries that can take part in the first Eurovision Asia has not been set in stone yet, the organisers of Eurovision Asia need your help!

 

Who do you want to see compete in Eurovision Asia? Visit EurovisionAsia.tv and let us know about your favourite Asian music, your favourite singers, songwriters and who you think could win!

 

In addition to the official Eurovision Asia website, you can also follow the official social media accounts on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and you can also subscribe to the official YouTube channel. Don't forget to use the #EurovisionAsia hashtag to make your voice heard!

A motion for rule change has been passed which has led to the confirmation of Israel in Eurovision 2026. Henceforth, the Netherlands, Spain, Ireland and Slovenia have stayed true to their word and withdrew.

Unfortunately, Belgium confirmed and Iceland would make its decision next Wednesday. Employees from the Portuguese broadcaster were disgruntled about their broadcaster's decision:

As for me, I will not create threads for the contest next year and will not host any contest simulating the real event.

The Eurovision Community Scoreboard is often a source of fascination and bewilderment come Springtime. A case in point - who the hell was voting for Kyle Alessandro's Lighter this year?

Anyway, there's been 639 songs entered into the contest since 2010 and here we find out which 50 that the notoriously rabid Eurovision fans have flocked to in droves.

Each entry was scored based on how many points it had on the app (as of 09/11/2025) as a percentage of the total points for the whole year.

By way of example

Moldova 2010 scored 32,847 out of 709,804 [total points for the whole year] so gets a mark of 4.628% putting it at number 100 in this list.

There are shocks a plenty.

Perch thyself, dear friends and prepare for girly bop flash flood.

All Buzzjack `s users from Central and Eastern Europe should know him. His first hit was "Boro Boro", then "Arash (feat. Helena) and" Temptation "(feat. Rebecca) conquered Europe. He also collaborated with Shaggy and Lumidee. And I can`t forget- he helped Aysel at Eurovision. Effect- third place. Personally, I love him for that... we have similar tastes when it comes to women. :D I always like the look of the girls with whom Arash sings. :wub:

One of them- Swedish Helena Johansson- appears again in "Broken Angel". It`s a new single from upcoming album, if we can believe YouTube and Wikipedia. I think it`s great!

Tina Karol only lasted an edition 👀 i guess the "you'll turn into backpack" line was unforgiveable

Not only in a real time, but maybe in retrospective format like me.
