Eurovision DRUNK rewatch - Birmingham 1998 - 09/05 23.45 (1 Viewer)

[Lucille]

NICE BLOUSE.

 

[ButterTart]

I'd rather listen to them than to this Hungarian rubbish.

A Design For Life was ace. They were still a few years off turning into their own working men's club tribute act at this point.

 

[Lucille]

I miss PUBS

 

[Tisch]

I miss PUBS

I MISS PUBES

[ButterTart]

Lighthouse Family now.

 

[Beverley]

OMG Imaani⁩ was so good, I think both her or Dana would've been great ambassadors for this year.

Where Are You is up there with the best.

 

[octophone]

Noncehouse Family, more like it.

 

[win_the_game]

Lighthouse Family now.

God they were massive in the late 90s.

 

[ButterTart]

Are you a fan? I've not liked anything of theirs since Ocean Spray, and I thought they were mint in the 90s

 

[Tisch]

This is a lull isn't it? I'm starting to *feel* my drunkenness and this isn't good

 

[Lucille]

Fun fact : I’ve had one of the lighthouse family in my flat.

 

[Beverley]

OK I'm leaving again! ByE

 

[Tisch]

Fun fact: the lighthouse family once favourited one of my tweets

Paul or Tunde?

They definitely went through a ropey phase around the turn of the century, but I think they pulled it back together after a few years.

 

[ButterTart]

God they were massive in the late 90s.

I've never understood that. High was a jam, and I've always had a soft spot for Ocean Drive, but they were EVERYWHERE.

 

[Lucille]

Paul or Tunde?

Paul

 

[Tisch]

Okay that's MUCH better than mine you bitch.

Please spill. Was it the black one and did he dick you good?

 

[octophone]

The two albums they made back to back in 2013 - Rewind The Film and Futurology - are both The Tits. Some good choons on the last one too.

 

[Tisch]

Oh it's BIG DAWN everyone!

 

[Lucille]

Okay that's MUCH better than mine you bitch.

Please spill. Was it the black one and did he dick you good?

The white one unfortunately. Not that exciting I lived with his son.

 

[ButterTart]

I think the last of their songs I actively paid attention to was Your Love Alone Is Not Enough. Wasn't a fan.

 

[win_the_game]

I've never understood that. High was a jam, and I've always had a soft spot for Ocean Drive, but they were EVERYWHERE.

Their first album sold 1.8 million in the UK and the second about 1.2 million. WTF?

They lost the plot on Know Your Enemy, went all synthy on Lifebood and then found themselves again on Send Away The Tigers.

 

[ButterTart]

This drag tribute to Letitia Dean is TWENTY ONE?

 

[dmlaw]

Sometimes the snow comes down in June. Sometimes the sun goes round the moon.

 

[win_the_game]

@Penelope GET IN HERE NOW. SAINT DAWN OF THE EMERALD ISLE IS HERE

 

[Tisch]

The white one unfortunately. Not that exciting I lived with his son.

Did you ask to paint the walls and he said no and insisted to do it himself? I need SOMETHING

 

[Tisch]

This is much better than that Niamh stuff from bthe other night

 

[ButterTart]

The two albums they made back to back in 2013 - Rewind The Film and Futurology - are both The Tits. Some good choons on the last one too.

I might have to give them a listen, then. They seemed to embrace dad rock with disquieting ease in the early 00s.

 

[Lucille]

I should hate this but I actually love it.

 

[win_the_game]

Remember that time Dawn from Accounts was on STAR FOR A NIGHT.

 

[dmlaw]

They lost the plot on Know Your Enemy, went all synthy on Lifebood and then found themselves again on Send Away The Tigers.

I liked Send Away The Tigers. Their version of Working Class Hero had some real venom.

 

[Lucille]

I did stumble into their after party wrecked last year after getting lost trying to find a sauna. I don’t remember much except having a conversation with his wife at the bar and her looking at me HORRIFIED.

 

[Lucille]

Oh Portugal.

 

[ButterTart]

Sometimes the snow comes down in June. Sometimes the sun goes round the moon.

Bloody global warming.

Bloody wildly incorrect understanding of how the moon works.

 

[dmlaw]

SERIOUSLY! Why would you play part of a Suede song before a Portuguese entry featuring bagpipes?

 

[Lucille]

Where did she find these DOUGHY MEN in the background.

 

[ButterTart]

Portugal is to Eurovision as Beverley Allitt is to the Pride of Britain awards.
