May 30, 20205 yr All indications seem to be pointing to Rome 1991 tonight - prepare your alcohol supply now!
October 18, 20204 yr #Justice4AnneKarine Actually screw that, 12 points to Pump Pump :lol: Edited October 18, 20204 yr by Thom Kerewolf
December 5, 20204 yr Watching now and LOL, what happened with the first entry? I find that fascinating in a way that shows just how much Eurovision's changed over the years. If a similar error happened today with the cueing of the backing track going wrong, I highly doubt any artist/s would just look annoyed at each other and storm off stage until it gets fixed - they'd stay on stage, make a joke about it, get the audience to cheer them on for the second attempt etc. In 1990 not only was there no phone voting but the studio audience was entirely made up of VIPs and delegates with no public tickets available, so you're essentially watching a closed-off jury contest that just happens to have some cameras pointed at it - making Azúcar Moreno's grumpy reaction a little more understandable to modern eyes. In the 2016 dress rehearsal, Iveta Mukuchyan's earpiece completely failed to work and despite looking a bit shaken and frantically gesturing backstage during the opening instrumental build, she still completed the song and cheerfully apologised to the audience afterwards - even though she was still virtually perfect despite the circumstances. Similarly SuRie still completed her performance two years later despite the infamous stage invasion making her miss out most of a chorus.

That makes sense - I think it's easy to forget how much the contest has changed over the years and yeah, that the audience was fall of VIPs and delegates makes their reaction more understandable. Still, it's funny to watch.
December 15, 20204 yr This weekend, 8PM CET. Very excited for it, although if Kate Ryan didn’t make it in for Belgium I’m gonna be :angry:
December 19, 20204 yr Most of these choices are shocking, Zibbz over Vampires Are Alive really? If Kate Ryan and Silvia Night don't make it I swear to Conchita.
December 19, 20204 yr Overall the choices were alright but 2008 being neglected entirely when Slovenia had a far better entry than what got picked for them. Expecting Verona to be called as the winner any minute now.
