Eurovision 2024 - Malmö

[Epona]

Post-apocalyptic sci-fi Ronan Keating...

 

[Nine Bob Note]

The dreary ballads have arrived

 

[PR1Berske]

The dreary ballads have arrived

Every so often a country sends a song into a song contest. They never learn

 

[quiet guy]

When did Bloodstock take over Eurovision

 

[girasol]

Bambi Thug definitely giving Kate Bush vibes, but like, really really dark and witchcraft like. Loved it . Definitely not something I'd expect to see at Eurovision.

 

[PR1Berske]

Greece - the most Gen Z song in the Contest. I don't have a clue what's happening so I must be old.

 

[Epona]

I quite like this song from Greece but I fucking hate the outfit so much

 

[a_chap]

Greece? You're watching Greece???

I'm not saying the BBC iPlayer stream is lagged but what I'm watching has Terry Wogan still commentating...

 

[isvicthere?]

I´m glad that a few more countries are singing in their own language than the cod English which has hitherto been almost ubiquitous.

 

[Dr. Furface]

Greek Rosalia

 

[onenameshelley]

Go on Greece

 

[PR1Berske]

My landlord's TV is borked, iPlayer is my only option!

 

[PR1Berske]

Greek Rosalia

Very much this.

 

[isvicthere?]

"Our" song? Oh no!

 

[weltweit]

Not heard the UK entry before ..

 

[onenameshelley]

Come on Olly

 

[ginger_syn]

Ollie's nervous

 

[PR1Berske]

I was going to say that the UK needs a "Triga warning", but that reference will only mean anything to the gays in the forum.

 

[rubbershoes]

Not heard the UK entry before ..

It hasn't had much play on radio 4

 

[isvicthere?]

It´s the first time I´ve known who the UK´s entry is since (probably) Cliff Richard in 1973, although as the actor from "It´s a sin", not as a musician.

 

[Tony_LeaS]

Not a fan of our song this year really, but gonna give credit to some very good staging and production performance

 

[not a trot]

WTF.

 

[skyscraper101]

Sick stage

 

[Epona]

I actually really enjoyed that

There's no 50 year old skinhead randomly in the mix so it doesn't really work

 

[ElizabethofYork]

Good staging but the vocals sounded a bit weak.

The Swedish entry (sung by 2 Norwegian lads) was apparently in English, but incomprehensible to me other than "unforgettable", which was strange because most young Scandis speak impeccable English.

 

[isvicthere?]

This insert bit is better than quite a few of the actual entries.

 

[Nine Bob Note]

I think this might come fourth/fifth
