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

[ButterTart]

You don’t see many mother/daughter duos at Eurovision, do you?

 

[dmlaw]

I don’t remember this one, what country is it?

Morocco. They only ever entered once, but it was quite good.

 

[ButterTart]

They're the Swedish Bucks Fizz.

Did they do as well as Bucks Fizz or was this their only song?

 

[lolly]

I think Cheryl and Jay narrowly have the edge over Frida and Agnetha vocally.

 

[Soldi]

You don’t see many mother/daughter duos at Eurovision, do you?

Remember Kate McCann of Song for Europe 1981 with all those kids sat in front of her?

 

[dmlaw]

You don’t see many mother/daughter duos at Eurovision, do you?

Tamta is planning it for her next entry.

[Raining on Me]

Oh no not this Belgian gash again

 

[Beverley]

Bjorn was sort of cute when he was young

 

[ButterTart]

Just putting it out there: This has absolutely no fucking business being considered a classic Eurovision song, and it’s nothing less than an insult to the many songs that should be here in its place.

 

[Beverley]

Now Luc just annoys me, as does his entry

 

[Soldi]

They put LÖIC through but not BLANCHE

[Soldi]

[Tisch]

This is great but so random. Have they just included it because of SuRie??

 

[dmlaw]

Did they wig SUriE up for this or had she not yet developed the iconic hairstyle?

 

[ButterTart]

He’s fucking detestable.

 

[ButterTart]

She’s the bald one.

I agree. But then I'd chuck in Fuego and Heroes as well.

 

[COB]

Graham not a fan

ginag!

 

[COB]

Here's our slumlord legend

 

[Dark Carnival]

He’s fucking detestable.

Homophobic

 

[ButterTart]

I agree. But then I'd chuck in Fuego and Heroes as well.

Oh Heroes definitely.

 

[Raining on Me]

Again not that it really matters here but it's SUCH a weird choice. Also shit and a wee bit pretentious.

At least Fuego was a SHOW

80 Rhythm Inside

 

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

I wonder if the general public are SOMEWHAT CONFUSED as to why this is included

I mean I do like Rhythm Inside a lot, but it feels a lot more OUT OF PLACE than Fuego and Soldi (both arguably more popular than Toy/Arcade)

SPIRIT IN THE SKY would have made sense to me
