Eurovision 2023 - Liverpool

[Epona]

Oh this is the one where I said when watching the semis "we don't have a cadillac to hand but I think Dave in the sound department has a Kia"

 

[quimcunx]

Why is this making me think of Duran Duran rio grande.

 

[Orang Utan]

He better drive that car

 

[Kaka Tim]

Czech one was really good - original, great harmonies, evocative and interesting tune, lots of energy. best one so far IMHO.

 

[Cid]

<yawn>


(at oz's effort)

 

[quimcunx]

Kind of like it all the same.

 

[Epona]

I do like it though, I quite like a bit of '80s soft rock
Ahh the nostalgia

 

[Plumdaff]

Australia is INXS covering Aha

 

[Lord Camomile]

HE IS NOT PLAYING THAT KEYTAR LIVE

 

[ginger_syn]

I didn't find the fins that interesting. Hate me if you want.

Can I raise an eyebrow and gently shake my head instead.

 

[Nine Bob Note]

Fuck, all that hair must get sweaty in Oz

 

[Orang Utan]

He’s not going to drive it.
Didn’t they learn ANYTHING from Chekhov?

 

[Mation]

Oh god. Am I going to find myself rooting for Australifuckinga?

 

[QueenOfGoths]

For some reason this reminds me of being 17 and getting ready for a Saturday night of underage drinking at the only disco in Skipton.

And that is no bad thing!!!

 

[Lord Camomile]

Ending with "ALRIGHT!" is just asking for a quick assessment.

 

[Chz]

FYI from the Guardian coverage:

I’ve got a battle going on here between me, Eurovision, and the Guardian style guide. Czechia are competing as Czechia for the very first time, but our style guide very firmly says Czech Republic. Please don’t write in, whatever I put I’m upsetting somebody.

 

[Saffy]

I loved the Belgian song!

 

[Mation]

Yes. Yes I am.

 

[Oriole]

The Belgian singer is so very Belgian

 

[Lord Camomile]

Oh god. Am I going to find myself rooting for Australifuckinga?

No! Their participation is an insult!

 

[Saffy]

 

[Lord Camomile]

The Belgian singer is so very Belgian

But why?

 

[quimcunx]

Ghost of boy George.

 

[Cid]

The Belgian singer is so very Belgian

Oh ffs, why is there time delay again.

 

[Nine Bob Note]

The Belgian singer is so very Belgian

He looks like Elon Musk

 

[Dr. Furface]

Belgium. Now this is Eurovision!

 

[Chz]

Ghost of boy George.

Inhabiting Elon Musk.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Oh, fuck me, my throwaway comment about the 80s turns out to be identifying (no doubt very belatedly) a genuine trend this evening

 

[Lord Camomile]

Marc Almond coves Boy George.

 

[Cid]

Gonna pop out and get some Moules-frites and a Chimay if anyone wants.
