Eurovision 2021

[Lord Camomile]

Anyone else thinking of not voting?

Already voted for Russia

 

[rubbershoes]

Who's going to get nul points?

 

[eatmorecheese]

Iceland all the way. There was a pisstake element that sold it to me

 

[weltweit]

Serbia had great hair !!

I probably would

 

[rutabowa]

Looks like a cross between Marti Pellow and The Yorkshire Ripper

This (about Portugal) is post of the thread so far

 

[rubbershoes]

Quite liked Lithuania but don't think they'll be top 3

 

[T & P]

Deffo the highest overall quality of any year I can remember. Goofy songs will always be an unmissable part of this, but fewer this year than other instalments.

My opinion: from a purely artistic quality perspective, France should win. But as this is Eurovision, Malta, with at least 4-5 nations tied in second.

 

[brogdale]

When the UK gets a total of nil point, it should leave and take back control by staging the UKovision Song Contest next year.
I'm hopeful that, given a little pan-islandic support, Sheppey might prove to be the surprise winner.

What happened with Germany, such a great country but with such dubious taste in clothing and music .. latterly and in the realm of pop I mean ,, not classic

One word: Kraftwerk - best band ever

 

[Saffy]

Iceland, Russia and Ukraine for me.

 

[Epona]

My favourites are Finland and France but I love the French entry so fucking much it hurts, sorry to everyone else.

 

[Orang Utan]

Only liked 4 of them, so a disappointing year.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Iceland, Russia and Ukraine for me.

Me too! Voted for each twice

If you do it via the app (still by calling the number), when you return to the app there's a little video from the artist thanking you

 

[Orang Utan]

Has anyone voted via the app? Do you also need to call the number? My phone company doesn’t want me to phone it

I'd regard that as a bit of a result tbh

 

[a_chap]

For me, the best track by far was Lithuania but I'd happily vote for Greece, Moldova, Ukraine and France.

However I think that Netherlands are odds on to win with Swededn or San Marino equally possible.

Germany and UK worst by a country mile

 

[Steel Icarus]

I voted for Iceland, twice

 

[T & P]

Italy the bookies’ favourite. WTF? Wasn’t terrible but neither great. I’d be cheesed off if it wins.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Yeah, it basically just saves you the bother of remembering/entering the number, but it still opens your phone app to actually make the vote.

 

[belboid]

3 votes for Ukraine, one each for Israel, Russia, Lithuania, Iceland and Italy.

Your confusing them with Neu!

 

[Orang Utan]

I get a message asking me if i want to make the call. If I don’t, does that mean my vote is not counted? Apparently calls on that number aren’t part of my price plan

This is correct. I’ve just wasted £1.20

Ah, that's a bugger. Yeah, I'd guess so?

 

[weltweit]

I wonder who the UK spokesperson will be this year.

Normally I have no idea who they are ..

 

[a_chap]

What time does the voting close?

Do I have time to get to the offy?

 

[Lord Camomile]

If the replies to a single Amber Ruffin tweet are a good gauge (and why wouldn't they be) then Iceland are going to romp home.

 

[Steel Icarus]

Stoked for 3.5 hours of scoring

Amanda Holden, I think I saw somewhere.
