Eurovision Rewatch: A Song For Europe 1981 (22:30 BST 17/04)

[COB]

Weeping openly to this one!

 

[ButterTart]

Are their teeth on purpose?

 

[lolly]

Genuinely excited to see how many votes If The World Was Filled With Laughter (featuring the Kidnapped Children of Tyneside) gets

The scoring system is unfortunate. You'll see what I mean...

 

[Penelope]

Oh god THIS REALLY IS LOVELY!

 

[Suomi]

I think song 4 is quite strong, a very powerful chorus

 

[win_the_game]

This was lolly's one birthday wish. Why are you being so hateful?

Do we get lockdown birthday wishes now? Mine is on the same date as our saviour ST. KYLIE OF MINOGUE'S. If we're still in lock down by then, I want a Kylie concert rewatch spectacular.

@Star our dear leader, please make this happen.

 

[Lucille]

Here’s to MANY MORE

 

[Soldi]

It was the Thatcher years, you can understand them all looking a bit depressed

I've already suggested it in her forum. We haven't decided which tour though. Happy for you to decide!

 

[Alla]

The only good thing so far is that it's going quite fast.

 

[Suomi]

I’d write a SYMPHONY
Full of all it’s power and it’s MAJESTY
Played in all it’s JOY AND TRAGEDY


this MUST WIN

 

[Penelope]

JUST BEING ROLLED OFF

OMG I'VE HEARD OF THIS ONE

 

[ButterTart]

Weeping openly to this one!

I actually don't mind this one at all. It's unbelievably nebbish and they look like they're from a rehabilitation scheme for recently paroled rapists, but I'm generally in favour.

 

[Soldi]

The BBC PIANO

 

[lolly]

It was the Thatcher years, you can understand them all looking a bit depressed

And let's not forget, alcopops hadn't yet been invented.

 

[COB]

I thought Wogan was a good presenter? This is so stiff!

 

[COB]

Oh! It's THEM

 

[Alla]

Oh them!! I thought they were in 1982, my bad.

@Star our dear leader, please make this happen.

Mine's in October, so if we're still in lockdown by then we'll have descended into savagery. I say, descended...

 

[Penelope]

OMG, masturbating OPEN VIVIDLY AS WE SPEAK!

 

[COB]

I hope everything after this is similar turgid shit to the first few, just for maximum contrast!

 

[Alla]

This could't be slighty close, right?

 

[ButterTart]

Oh God here they are, the slutty Christians.

 

[Kala]

One of the girls is totally OFF KEY. I think it's JAY.

 

[win_the_game]

Are those sweaters VELOUR?

 

[Penelope]

This is like FELLATIO FOR THE FIRST TIME

 

[Suomi]

Cheryl Baker is so lovely

 

[COB]

Still can't believe they're all dead now

 

[lolly]

Mike Nolan ripping a skirt off with surprising ease

 

[Soldi]

OMG, masturbating OPEN VIVIDLY AS WE SPEAK!

Pics or it didn’t happen

 

[Kala]

Pics or it didn’t happen

HUSH CHILD.

 

[COB]

One of the girls is totally OFF KEY. I think it's JAY.

Surely not our songbird!

 

[Penelope]

Pics or it didn’t happen

Oh GIVE IT A REST

 

[lolly]

Bobby G is surprisingly SNAKE HIPPED

 

[dmlaw]

I wonder if there are any old episodes of Eggs 'n' Baker on YouTube.

 

[ButterTart]

You know you're in the distant past when the prospect of seeing slightly more of Cheryl Baker's legs wasn't causing people in the front row to commit suicide.

 

[Penelope]

OMG it's J.E.M.

DO LOVE Love Trigger

 

[ButterTart]

Still can't believe they're all dead now

Killed by the immigrants, a final indignity for brave racist Miss Jay Aston.

 

[lolly]

I wonder if there are any old episodes of Eggs 'n' Baker on YouTube.

I've got the cookbook (signed) I can scan, if you can't dig anything up.
