I've been enjoying the yesteryear World Snooker classics on TV, replacing what would have currently been the actual 2020 event, which I think is tentatively pencilled in for later this year, but I'm not certain.

Anyway...

It got me wondering if something similar was planned for Eurovision week/night? Yep, an evening of snooker, lol.

But seriously, I'd enjoy an evening of yesteryear Eurovision highlights. Tbh, I'd be more likely to tune in to that, as a lot of the modern mainstream music sadly doesn't appeal that much to me.

As posted here, there will be some sort of Eurovision event on the Saturday. Whether the BBC will show anything related to that on the Tuesday and Thursday in place of the semis, I don 't know.

I thought they may have tried pushing the date out as it could possibly proceed later in the year if all the acts and venue were available.
Is anyone else watching the Eurojury results?
France avoided bottom 5 in the final... I don't know how!
I wonder where this will be held next year if it goes ahead?!?

Rotterdam?

Did anyone watch Germany's own Eurovision semi-final 2020 last night? It was a very long show (almost 4 hours) with performances of national finals or music videos of all 40 artists. Viewers voted these ten countries for next Saturday's grand final: Iceland, Lithuania, Switzerland, Italy, Russia, Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Sweden, Malta and Denmark.

 

Final will take place in Hamburg's Elbphilharmonie hosted by Barbara Schöneberger. German act will perform as special guest star and there are rumors some of the ten finalists will perform live in Hamburg.

A very solid top ten from Germany. Had Eurovision taken place I expect it would have comprised most of those countries, albeit maybe including Germany themselves too.

 

I'm unsure if Denmark/Malta/Azerbaijan would have been quite as huge as various online polls suggest, but I could definitely see all of the others being top ten.

Is anything happening this Saturday regarding anything to do with this year’s concert?
Anyone watching Eurovision celebration in a few minutes?

Yes. You can watch it:

 

They are playing the songs in their official running order!

Sweden - 7.5/10

 

I always have to imagine that the Swedish songs are from a different country before I can judge how I feel about them - so as to offset any possible negative feelings I might have because it's from Sweden. I feel the anti-Sweden sentiment online might have rubbed off on me.

 

Move is quality.

Poor Belarus getting that death slot :lol:. I think Australia would have struggled 3rd on.
Nothing blown me away so far, I do really like Australias song though but do agree with it probably struggling in that position if it were real

Australia 8/10

North Macedonia 4.5/10

Slovenia 8/10

 

The revamp of Voda is magic. Top 10 for me.
