Eurovision 2019

[wtfftw]

Booooooooo

 

[joustmaster]

What was the total Palestinian flag count?

 

[tommers]

I can't seem to concentrate on it. I try but I keep forgetting and thinking about something else.

 

[Baronage-Phase]

I like that he didnt dress up for it.

Don't know to busy laughing to count

 

[Baronage-Phase]

I figure thr only public votes that got through all came from nursing homes.

 

[magneze]

I need some sleep and that song was just the ticket. Thanks all for the thread. Always a highlight.

 

[smmudge]

Yes i wanted him to win i think the overall table of results was fair to be honest.

Didn't much care for Iceland till they brought out the Palestine flags

 

[smmudge]

Although I think Malta should have done better.

 

[rekil]

Russia is rubbish but will be top 3ish.

Got that right at least.

 

[Orang Utan]

I figure thr only public votes that got through all came from nursing homes.

my vote for San Marino was blocked. Fuming at being disenfranchised. It's rigged!

 

[not-bono-ever]

no smiles from the icelandic agitproppers.

 

[rekil]

3 pity points.

I gather we were overwhelmingly voted out last night; no surprises there.
Also we did not come last in the judges votes and we did not come last with the public votes
Congrats to Netherlands.

I'm surprised ... I genuinely thought the tune was okayish in a beige field

Didn't watch it in the end... Did he at least sing it in tune etc?

 

[hash tag]

I did not watch as I was working. I gather the lad was ok and deserved better.

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

We had a Eurovision party last night and someone in the block called the cops!

 

[hash tag]

Because of the party or for watching Eurovision?

 

[Treacle Toes]

What was the total Palestinian flag count?

Quite. I'm glad to hear Israel didn't win again. I boycotted last night but hope to resume normal Eurovision fun next yeah.

 

[rekil]

I'd forgotten that Coldplay existed. Fuck you Holland.

I know Madonna’s performance was bad, but that seems a bit excessive.

 

[Baronage-Phase]

She was really struggling to stay in tune.

I hope it was just some issue with sound and not that her voice is gone to pot.

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

Because of the party or for watching Eurovision?

Both?

There were 17 of us so we were probably quite loud. Cops showed up about 3 am but there were only 6 of us left.

It's quiet time between 6am and 10pm so... guilty!

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

I actually missed Madonna

 

[Baronage-Phase]

I actually missed Madonna

Count your blessings there.

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Yeah he did fine, sang it as well as possible. I think there were just too many similarly beige entries that it got a bit lost.

Add that to the fact that everyone seems to dislike us and it meant fewer votes than I think he deserved.

 

[Steel Icarus]

Everyone DOES dislike us. You could get a Blur/Oasis/Coldplay supergroup with McCartney and Adele as singers performing an unreleased Bowie song at Eurovision and we'd be fourth from bottom.

 

[MrCurry]

So... no problem being noisy at 3am then? As long as you quietened down by 6am

It seemed like there was some kind of aggro between Madonna and the EBU during the lead up to the event - why else would Jon Ola Sand be making announcements that she wouldn’t be on stage because she hadn’t signed her contract?

It wouldn’t surprise me if ol’ Jon Ola’s hand slipped on the mixing desk and cut her talkback level so she couldn’t hear her own voice back through the earpiece, especially if he had caught wind of the Palestinian flag stunt the backing singers had up with sleeves (or was it up their arses?)
