Eurovision Rewatch: Zagreb 1990 (20.00 21/11/20)

[Suomi]

I really do think Yugoslavia would have won on a televote

 

[lolly]

She is now very religious and lives in the USA

I'm not surprised she found God. I don't imagine anyone else was interested.

It will be interesting to see what the great unwashed on Twitter make of it.

 

[Madison]

If France were to win Eurovision again, how much of their silly language do you think the French broadcaster would inflict on us?

 

[dmlaw]

She is now very religious and lives in the USA

Ooh, she released a Christian Rock album in 2014. That could be perfect for the next Song For Moopy.

 

[Madison]

I’m loving this Portuguese one.

 

[lolly]

I know I'm quite the Portugal apologist at Eurovision, but I hope she was shot for that outfit.

 

[dmlaw]

Apparently, this performance alone qualified Nucha to appear in Portugal's Celebrity Big Brother 23 years later. And I thought our housemates were low rent.

Yeah sure. Where?

Doesn’t matter. Somewhere in Europe.

 

[dmlaw]

This Irish singer would be comfortably in the top half when it comes to an ability to successfully organise a Moopmeet.

 

[lolly]

All this, and belted knitwear too.

[dmlaw]

He'd have done better if he hadn't asked her to guess his phone number as well.

 

[SDF]

I didn’t mind Ireland tbh

 

[SDF]

Please Sweden save this show

 

[Madison]

The Stockholm Water Festival 1991 looks nice.

 

[SDF]

This is a terrible Eurovision

 

[Madison]

The Stockholm Water Festival 1991 looks nice.

UPDATE: Died in 1999.

 

[SDF]

Carola is looking well though

 

[dmlaw]

A Swede with deeply questionable hair banging on about the wind. I've got a good feeling about this...

 

[GNL]

He didn't mention ASDA Hulme ONCE

These are religious too aren’t they?

The backing band was a former Yugoslavian entrant apparently.

More English than the cunt used during his entire gig presenting the thing.

[Madison]

Finland controversially using their non-faerie language.

 

[dmlaw]

For some reason, I keep expecting a tiger to appear and maul the Finnish singers.

 

[GNL]

You haven't kept your promise, stained glass lady. YOU LIED.

 

[dmlaw]

'As you may remember, at the beginning of the evening I promised you an entertaining evening of music.' I'm sorry I lied.

[dmlaw]

This video about Yugoslavia seems to have lasted about forty years so far. I'm starting to think they deserved the war.

 

[Madison]

Toto’s hairdye is dripping...

Very topical.

 

[dmlaw]

At least Toto has the good grace to look embarrassed when he finds himself somewhere inappropriate without his trousers.
