[Tisch]

Armenia a bit LATE TO THE PARTY with the faux Turkish- Holly Valance - Sertab BEAT

 

[Beverley]

His vox aren't great tbh

 

[VoR]

I also work with a team of Armenians. I actually think I MIGHT hum this to them on our next zoom call.

 

[Beverley]

This sounds quite AZERBAIJANI

Can you tell the DIFFERENCE?

 

[Tisch]

TURKEY

Why won’t they come back?

A BIT TOO GAY

 

[ButterTart]

I like a baggy trouser but I still have limits. He looks like he's come as a wind sock.

It was when Holly did it.

Yes I know it was a cover, but she doesn't even have a WHIFF of the souk about her.

 

[D5K]

Did he say TEN MINUTES to vote?!

Such a contrast to the Israelis dragging it out for forty minutes last year.

 

[VoR]

Don't forget the amazing Maria drinking game.

[ButterTart]

Oh no, when Eurovision hosts announce a surprise it should always be taken as a threat.

 

[dmlaw]

I was also expecting Demis Roussos.

 

[Beverley]

Can anybody actually name a Nana Mouskouri song?

Nana is 85 years old (now, not then)

 

[COB]

Can anybody actually name a Nana Mouskouri song?

That one where she wears the glasses when she sings it, what a memorable classic
