[Soldi]

But after that feel free to ban me

After Festival Di Soldi

 

[Tisch]

Oh I think I came across ()this guy when I briefly considered doing Malta for Kalavision!

I had to put that idea to one side when I realised literally everyone in Malta has some kind of Eurovision connection.

 

[Madison]

There’s an extended orchestral version of this which is too.

 

[Soldi]

04 Switzerland

Pretty soon Fabrizio is going to be showing someone on a doll where that backing singer touched him.

 

[Beverley]

I never really cared for this

 

[ButterTart]

Fucking love this one.

 

[Tisch]

I now work with Maltese people on a daily basis and it takes all my self-control not to hum this song during Zoom meetings.

Would they even get the reference?!

 

[VoR]

I used to be quite the denier on this fan favourite, but I've since come around to it.

It makes much more sense as an Australian entry though.

 

[D5K]

I know I’m in a minority but of the two country-tinged entries this year I greatly prefer THE OTHER ONE

 

[Soldi]

“My love shines brighter than a twink”

 

[VoR]

Would they even get the reference?!

I reckon there's got to be at least an evens chance that one of my team is somehow related to him...

 

[Tisch]

It's Kylie's Golden tour everyone! Yeehaw!

 

[D5K]

I reckon there's got to be at least an evens chance that one of my team is somehow related to him...

OMG you work with Claudia faniello?!

 

[COB]

I'm enjoying the sauciness of this borderline boiler in her performance, but the song isn't doing much for me.

 

[Tisch]

Is that Victoria Derbyshire on vocals?

 

[dmlaw]

And here I didn't think that it was possible for country music to get more right wing.

What she lacks in star quality she more than makes up for in accurate data entry

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Is that Victoria Derbyshire on vocals?

 

[Madison]

Oh no - not this.

Toilet breaker

 

[D5K]

I know I’m in a minority but of the two country-tinged entries this year I greatly prefer THE OTHER ONE

Okay I’d completely forgotten they were back to back

 

[VoR]

Quick poll - is this Denmark's LOWEST MOMENT?

 

[D5K]

This is ten times more enjoyable than Germany.

 

[Soldi]

Love me a bit of TWIST. Who wants to DANCE

 

[Beverley]

Denmark very on brand, but I like it

 

[D5K]

[Soldi]

I feel like there must be worse, but I can’t think of any.

 

[COB]

This is GARBAGE.

 

[dmlaw]

Quick poll - is this Denmark's LOWEST MOMENT?

Leonora is one humanity's lowest moments, so no.

 

[Tisch]

Nice of Israel to lend Denmark they're BRASSIERES

 

[Beverley]
