Someone needed to sit him down many years ago and say “Enough”

I’m struggling to remember an entry that gets everything so wrong - it’s truly a wonder to behold

He’s inventing new notes never heard before

Azerbaijan should be STUDIED - has any country fallen so far so fast. This is comically awful.

Italy is Italy so will of course do really well, but i just find it all so off putting - he’s like a combination of the child catcher and MJ

Time for the haunted mannequin of Lucio Corsi to consume your nightmares

Belgium does what it sets out to do very well - not entirely my thing but it’s a good package overall

Norway is fine - they had much better in the NF but it’s at least got some energy which is sorely lacking so far tonight

What would Eurovision be without a scandi twink with the vocal capability of a sparrow

Portugal is forgettable dullardry anyway, but coming after Sweden it feels even worse

If Sweden win it’ll be irksome as it’s a fine novelty entry but its testament to how weak a year it is that’s it’s the favourite

Ukraine is somehow less appealing than on record, which takes some doing

Spain is absolutely everything I want from Eurovision - incredible

The Spanish Nadine Coyle *.*

To be fair … there’s always reasonable chance of it coming true. This year doesn’t feel like it though.

Estonia is a song designed to appeal to the worst people of humanity. -12455/10

Slovenia is…fine. I quite like the performance visuals but the song is the epitome of meh.

Justyna is amazing and giving it 100000%, but the song itself isn’t up to much

Iceland is everything I should hate - but it somehow works. 8/10

Hazels jacket is amazing *.*

I’ve not really had much time to get stuck into things this year bad a handful of listens to the songs. I’m sure it’s not the general VIBE but I love the stage.

Land of Make Believe by a country mile. Their best song, however, is Rules of The Game.

I’m happy with 13th, especially after 2 DNQ’s early in the year. Still my 3rd lowest finish ever, so there’s WORK TO DO in 2025.
