[AGinAg (37)]

Genuinely shook - it’s barely a chorus!

IT'S MORE THAN A CHORUS

 

[Soldi]

This is going even harder than 99 for me! I wish they’d tell us the country in the corner cause I keep missing it. What is this?

TURKEY

 

[Penelope]

This is going even harder than 99 for me! I wish they’d tell us the country in the corner cause I keep missing it. What is this?

[Lucille]

The orchestra Turkey is a banger but disappointingly Caucasian for my tastes

X2

 

[Tisch]

He's dead

Oh

 

[ButterTart]

Genuinely shook - it’s barely a chorus!

I like it but I don't quite share her enthusiasm. Of the early 80s UK entrants my clear favourite is 'Love Is'.
It's the sizzling, barely-contained sensuality of that first line: "It's been a pleasant evening". Christ, put your fanny away love, they're trying to keep this PG.

You would never have expected a drive-by in Harrogate, would you?

 

[Penelope]

OH WAIT NO IGNORE ME THIS FINNISH ONE IS THEIR WORST ONE EVER

I briefly thought it was Tule luo

 

[Lucille]

OH WAIT NO IGNORE ME THIS FINNISH ONE IS THEIR WORST ONE EVER

YOURE FORGETTING THEIR ABORTED 2020 entry.

Literally he should’ve been aborted.

 

[Penelope]

You’re a Tory Yorkshire queen! That’s what I always imagined myself ending up with. I have socialist values, but ultimately want to end my years in a stately home on the edge of the moors.

The LONDON ONES

 

[ButterTart]

OMG my memory says this Finnish one is VERY SULTRY and VERY GOOD

[AGinAg (37)]
