Eurovision: Come Together (BBC) (16 May 2020)

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

God WHAT A PERFORMANCE Conchita

The SCORES OF POINTS from Azerbeijan and other countries thought to be homophobic that I can't remember was just so LOVELY to see

 

[COB]

They should've got Sean Connery out of retirement to film a Bond film SPECIFICALLY so this could be the theme song.

 

[lolly]

Everything about this is still UTTERLY ICONIC

Well, except the song

 

[Raining on Me]

Fun fact: This is an average ballad that only won because he had a frock and a beard.

It was an open year (I think) which helped, but this performance is MAJESTIC. That ending!!

(Frock and beard might have helped, a bit)

 

[Madison]

He moves less than Zlata.

 

[Beverley]

It's all in the performance. Mans was more staging than Vox, but you can't deny what Conchita brought to this.

Mans could have been anyone with that gimmick

That’s neither fun nor a fact.

 

[ButterTart]

Arcade won because of the lighting and camera.

[dmlaw]

Fun fact: This song was written about the death of Helen Daniels in Neighbours.

 

[Madison]

So sick of this one.

 

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

Duncan reduced to 2 seconds in a medley

 

[Beverley]

Why do we have to have him?

(RIP CHLAMMY )

 

[ButterTart]

Saving the worst for last, here. I will never understand why this gurning turd did so well.

 

[Dark Carnival]

UGH SOBRAL

 

[Raining on Me]

God WHAT A PERFORMANCE Conchita

The SCORES OF POINTS from Azerbeijan and other countries thought to be homophobic that I can't remember was just so LOVELY to see

They probably just thought she was a HAIRY LADY to be fair

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I absolutely get why this one, but he's such a SMUG CUNT

 

[Lucille]

What a SHIT EATING GRIN.

 

[Beverley]

FFS AT LEAST FIX THE LOOSE STRINGS!

 

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

God there is a bit in Fairytale after the second chorus and he intensely plays the violin looking straight down the camera that always gets me a bit

YES I KNOW, I'M DISGUSTING

 

[Dark Carnival]

This is much more tolerable on Spotify without THAT FACE

 

[Beverley]

The vocals are truly shocking, on reflection

 

[dmlaw]

At least there's some value in having Rybak pop up at the contest every few years so that we can watch how he appears to be slowly melting.

 

[lolly]

If it gets too unbearable, just think about That's How You Write A Song and the leaderboard.

 

[Raining on Me]

Poor Yohanna is all I can think

We always sing "Is it true? Is this Dover? Did I throw it away?" on account of moving there
