At this point I wouldn’t bet against Israel replacing Spain in the Big5 as part of a pay to play deal with the EBU I hope they win. I will probably avoid this years contest tbh. I know Eurovision can feel political at times but that has, until the last 2 years, never dominated or become the sole feeling you have when watching. We went out on a high with Käärijä and Baby Lasagna winning the last every Eurovision Song Contest with their mashup and collab Euro Dab. In my head cannon the contest is cancelled because Croatia and Finland couldn’t agree how to split hosting duties

EBU - we’ve passed rules to ban vote influence campaigns by governments! not even a nano second later KAN - The president of Israel went round every country in the EBU that’s not Arab majority or on their list of know enemies and threatened them with accusations of antisemitism and Mossad until they agreed we could stay EBU - we’re so happy a consensus could be reached on keeping the contest non-political

I do a lot of listening on YouTube while at work so it’s not a complete picture and misses out some of my obsessive periods with my own entries like VTSS

I expected bbno$ to be killed by the veto which is why even tho I’ve been obsessed with 1-800 for absolute months on end I haven’t even tried it 🫠

One Touch was released 25 years ago today!! Insane to think how old but how fresh it is

Ohhh good point. @Freeze any chance you also know what I sent? 😅

Vanity Edge defo rings a Bell. A very old and rusty bell I had long forgotten about

Sabrewolf single handedly responsible for my Kate Miller Heidke obsession back in the day. These Words is still a banger. @matto - if it’s only email that is the hold up then Joseph can support to update the email associated with the account. A lot of people were locked out when the site upgraded and we all suddenly had to remember what 15 year old email address we had used 😅

She did four BJSC tracks in total! I Know & I Love You as entered by Tinnmark Butterflies & Look Back as entered by Rd‘Á She also did perpetual Rd‘Á potentials Winner of a Losing Game & Stuck in My Head (with Vinni Live on stage) and one track that’s been vetoed, Imagine featuring the Eric Saade live on stage

This year has been a bit more chill Baby Lasanga in March Sugababes in Berlin in April Lincoln Park in June Gabrielle in Bergen in August And I’m on my way into the office directly from the airport this morning having seen Tone Damli for the very first time. I’m exhausted but so happy. That one was a real bucket list gig

McLaren are a Team i will always take immense joy in seeing failing or suffering Absolutely cackled. Shame Crybaby 2.0 got a podium as well but you can’t have everything in life

It is HAPPENING An artist I fell in love with thanks to BJSC, an artist I have sent many times with two podiums and one utterly robbed victory. An ICON partly responsible for the introduction of the Veto Framework. I am so excited for this

Rd‘Á has not been tempted to the dark side and has stuck to our initial plan. Been a potential for a few months now

Imma try and send something when I arrive in Oslo before I go see Tone Damli and my entire playlist is taken over by queen Tone and that’s all I listen to and therefore all I want to send

Was ready to riot but glad to see Smack Me proudly very high on the playlist. Some incredible smashes on there, I owe an insane debt of gratitude to you for some of these wonderful songs I’d never have otherwise been able to love and cherish the way I do. And there can be no better way to finish than we queen Delta herself. If you’ve lost your faith in love, don’t worry, deltas here to help you believe again

Yes! They only did this as a movie tie in I believe

Not really sure how you can be bored by it I found it so interesting to see what was happening in her life and her opening up about her addiction issues and domestic abuse situations and what she’s gone through to be standing here today. It was her autobiography so of course it focuses on her and not the band. I couldn’t put it down and finished it in one evening I see so much of her solo material in a new light. Especially the leaked demos like addiction and dark side

Finally getting to return to our fellow 100%er for a contest. I can’t believe how long it has been since FSR last won. I think in honour of this return that Rd‘Á will take inspiration from an earlier visit to the former Scandinavian republic for our entry this month

Massive thanks and congrats to Jade for a fabulous hosting job!!!

f***ing finally!!!! Congrats Rich So close but so far on a unique position for Rd‘Á

I think 24th is the only unique position in the top 30 I need so to finish there pls

Your chances are more 2025 Alpine tbh

Yeah I don’t think anyone could quite prove that they were the same person. Headhunted is something I still have in semi regular rotation. It’s a glorious song. Money note was excellent too. BJSC X had some crazy good songs.
