Eurovision Rewatch: Luxembourg City, 1984 (00:00 BST / 01:00 CEST, 3 May 2020)

[AGinAg (37)]

That postcard made no sense. He wasn't upside down but it clothes were hanging upside down(?)

They're really a huge acid trip.

 

[lolly]

I just wanna comfort all these contestants and tell them that WiFi is coming soon

You don't need WiFi when you've got a Cabbage Patch Kid

Once again Turkey enter the most artpop song I don’t mind their diaspora fuelled dominance between 2003-2012 as it clearly making up for years of being ignored

 

[Dark Carnival]

German really isn't a singer's language.

A language for giving orders. And lesbians.

 

[Soldi]

@Win_the_game I imagine you as the Scottish Maria de Filippi

 

[AGinAg (37)]

No details on whether these are alive.

 

[Lucille]

Here for this Turkish Voulez-Vous

 

[Suomi]

10 Turkey

I’ve started my scorecard again because I lost my original one. Apologies to all the countries that came before.

Suicide pact

IKR! Bless them for never giving up!

Shane about the video quality couldn’t work out if the Turkish guy with the beard was worth a ride, although 9/10 times THEY ARE.

 

[ButterTart]

That bearded one has so little charisma it almost feels like a deliberate choice.

I don't think they were even then.

 

[Madison]

German really isn't a singer's language.

By some measures, Germany were the most succesful country in the 1980s.

No idea what I'm rating as I've only just realized I'm up past Turkey. Very very strong year though

@Win_the_game I imagine you as the Scottish Maria de Filippi

That's the dream.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I need a compilation of the postcards

 

[Lucille]

Did he just sing RIDE THE COCKS?!?

 

[Lucille]

I need a compilation of the postcards

And some MUSHROOMS

 

[Suomi]

Chris Lilley as Mr G as Finland’s male backing singer is everything.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

FINALLY A FATALITY

 

[dmlaw]

Kirka is dead. Acute illness.

 

[Suomi]

Did he just sing RIDE THE COCKS?!?

in Finnish it means “travel with the penis”

If in doubt, give it an 8.

 

[ButterTart]

These postcards are basically what I think Salvia feels like.

 

[Lucille]

Oh no not a HARMONICA.

 

[Raining on Me]

If in doubt, give it an 8.

It's gone very downhill but there is a lot of consistency here.

That lot were suspiciously tan for Finns

 

[ZenGiraffe]

That harmonica has made me lose the will to live

 

[dmlaw]

Oh, he has a mouth organ. He DEFINITELY deserved to die.
