ASFM Worldvision IV: The Observe the Viewing Globe Gala - TONIGHT, 7PM

[dmlaw]

I’ve been looking through the rest of the songs and I’m sorry to say that we’ve actually got a second repeat in Duality. Shows how memorable it was the first time.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

This song isn't really going anywhere.

Lovely VIBE beautiful VIBE though

 

[Tisch]

Canada - ok.

We'll need to pass this on to Moopy Ofcom for an INQUIRY

 

[Tisch]

Canada - ok.

This was a bit difficult to search for so maybe I have the wrong song it sounds extremely unmoopy even when you take indie into the equation

 

[ButterTart]

This is our LAST SONG OF THE NIGHT. I hope I’ve made you all less hateful towards foreigners with this selection. I encourage you all to continue to review OCH debate: the voting thread, and Spotify playlist will be up later.

I’ve also made an Apple playlist on account of one of the songs is on there but not Spotify.

 

[dmlaw]

In fairness, the repeat songs are still not in the Top 2 most famous songs/singers in the contest.

Is it a latiny rap song?

 

[Tisch]

Yes!

My YouTube has stuck on Theresa & Maria on afterwards so I may have a little three minute break

WHAT?!?

 

[dmlaw]

Is the second semi final on tomorrow?

 

[ButterTart]

WHAT?!?

Just changing the contest name to ASFM GOLD.

 

[ButterTart]

Is the second semi final on tomorrow?

This was both the first and second semifinal. Sadly there are a LOT of xenophobes on Mopsy who refuse to endorse foreign artistry, even when they’ve heard and voted on it previously it turns out.

I miss the days when @Suomi bullied all his friends into playing and we ended up with 87 competing songs.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Yeah YouTube have fucked embedding playlists on Mobile

 

[Tisch]

Romania - oh, DEAD! It's very Erika Jayne cosplaying in a stable

 

[ButterTart]

Just realised @dmlaw's namesake is the avatar for Argentina. Is NOTHING original in this contest anymore?

I think we need a royal archivist to get the past contests thread up to date.

I wonder, is everyone properly inducted into the producers guild or have we missed someone?

We really peaked with that edition when the Real Housewife of Kyiv won.

 

[Tisch]

Italy - it says a lot when you type in "Alan Ross" and the first hit is a man reviewing Bluetooth speakers.

Anyway it's 5:44 so I'm not sure how much I can arsed but well done to whoever for submitting some VARIETY I guess

 

[Tisch]

China - as I said already this is a known banger to these ears. It's not actually the one I had on My List™ though so that makes me hate it less, and if anyone sees a Lexie Liu song come up in a future one, shhh you didn't read this post

To bring back some 2021 terminology, that absolutely FUCKED

Oh don't worry, it'll probably be this song that you send, the way things are going.

 

[Tisch]

Finland - From UMK THIS YEAR apparently and I have neary a memory of her. This is cute but is kinda giving UMK backup choice

 

[Tisch]

Well if it becomes acceptable to do so...

Hell I might just finally SEND ADELE

 

[Tisch]

Ireland - a MAN??!

Oh wait it's one of those isn't it?

The short shorts aren't enough to distract from the fact that the song is kinda average soz

 

[Tisch]

Equatorial Guinea - oh proper WorldVision 2020 vibes from this one DEAD at the FASHIONS! The RAPPING! This really has it all

 

[Tisch]

Greece - well this isn't PANIK records is it? I think I'll be flushing Flert

 

[Tisch]

Germany - MY EYES

John Summit is a bit of alright isn't he? Song's okay.

 

[Tisch]

Mongolia - well it's FUN and I guess you can't really search most of these words on the moopy search function so I'll try to #bekind

It's the best song in this lineup with throat singing and a Tovshurr

 

[Tisch]

Ukraine - well first off, seeing as YouTube's broken and I'm doing all of these manually thank god the artists aren't in FUNNY WRITING!

This is Ukrainian ASFM entry by numbers which is high praise indeed. They just never go wrong. Props to then for filming this in a BUNKER (presumably)

 

[Tisch]

Argentina - issa bop. I don't have much else to say, it feels like it was conceived and spat out in 10 minutes

 

[Tisch]

Sweden - OBSCURE! Do we think Hand Out the Drugs is a Melodifestivalen reject?

This is great! I love the richness. Is that Ryan Gosling? Or just a generically attractive man? No complaints here either way...

This was overall GOOD! Thanks @Butterfly. May all your teas be satisfactory from this day

I think it was just a load of scenes from Drive in that video. I’m delighted you enjoyed the playlist and I can’t wait to see how many correct answers you get in the voting quiz.

 

[funky]

Well YouTube appears to be BROKEN tonight so I haven't been able to join in. The videos just aren't loading, and it's nothing to do whatever the issue is on mobile. I'm on my laptop.

Also having skimmed the thread - what are we doing about the repeat songs? Surely they need to be replaced?

This is a good question and one I don’t have an answer for. Happy to throw this open to see what everyone else thinks.

In the meantime @dmlaw has kindly been blackmailed into updating the ASFM archive so nothing like this can ever happen again.

They should be replaced.

 

[BoysForSeles]

I was highly unlikely to spot a duplicate anyway so I don’t mind them staying.
