Eurovision 2019

[QueenOfGoths]

San Marino, what did this beat to get through!!! But sadly it's my favourite so far

 

[Orang Utan]

I watch the semi finals. (Bbc4 on Tues and Thurs).

ah, i admire your dedication/masochism. once is enough for me with these songs. didn't realise they had semis - thought everyone had a go.

 

[magneze]

I'm watching from Spain without the sarcastic UK commentary. It's weird.

Eurovision Week is one of my annual highlights.

 

[Nine Bob Note]

Well, I think we know who Britain will be voting for tonite

 

[not-bono-ever]

i went to a talk the other night about the politics of eurovision- the verdict was that Wogan is responsible for brexit. probably another thread

 

[weltweit]

Apart from ABBA, who went on from EuroVision to become a famous musician?

 

[not-bono-ever]

cliff * living dead* richard was already a pop sensation by eurovision

[QueenOfGoths]

I think this may do well but it's not for me.

Celine Dion

Perhaps not politically if they had to settle for "North Macedonia"

Same. Proper power ballad.

 

[ffsear]

I hate eurovision, but my mrs loves its and wants to watch it... So may as well have a few bets... Win/Win situation...

 

[isvicthere?]

Militant feminism from Germany in the green room!

 

[billy_bob]

Disappointing Jeff Goldblum

 

[ginger_syn]

[Orang Utan]

Mr. QofG's has bet on San Marino and Italy.....so far!

 

[Epona]

Swedish bloke has a lovely voice!

 

[ffsear]

Sneaky feminism card played by the Germans there... Sneaky £5 for me at 200/1

 

[Orang Utan]

This is very disappointing so far - loads of shite ballads and no outrageous drag queen aesthetics, which was what I was expecting.

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Swedish bloke has a lovely voice!

Yeah not my thing at all but the kind of thing you hear every hour on Heart FM.

I think this deserves to do well.

 

[Nine Bob Note]

Sir terry

Long may he be remembered!

 

[sparkybird]

His trousers look well dodgy though..
ETA..not sir Terry! The Swedish bloke
ETA 2 although on closer inspection...

 

[QueenOfGoths]

"Next" says the small one
