The birds and the child? CALL THE POLICE!

 

[Lucille]

I've just realised this was a terrible mistake

IT GETS BETTE.....

OH

 

[dmlaw]

Is there even the SLIGHTEST nod to disco in this contest?

That Italian entry was the closest we will get.

 

[Madison]

Insta update on beardy striped dungaree man please.

 

[Penelope]

Good GOD, WHY was that Richard III hair so ENCOURAGED in the 70s?!

 

[Soldi]

2. The penguin wrote “L’oiseau et l’enfant”

That must have been a BAD FEW YEARS to go from writing a winning song to turning up on stage as a PENGUIN

 

[Alla]

 

[lolly]

The penguin wrote “L’oiseau et l’enfant”

Makes me wonder what @The Sexual Goose is capable of.

 

[Lucille]

Where ZU?!?

He’d be pissing his knickers!

 

[dmlaw]

Have Denmark sent the fat one from Asterix this year?

 

[ButterTart]

FUCK ME. It's like Ann Widdecombe going on Stars in Their Eyes as Rod, Jane and Freddy.

 

[Madison]

This is what everyone in Denmark really looks like.

 

[Penelope]

Insta update on beardy striped dungaree man please.

You're not going to believe me but he's dead Cardiac arrest, 2011

 

[Penelope]

So many EARLY DEATHS THIS YEAR!

[Alla]

A banger coming next or I'm out, this is unbearable.

 

[dmlaw]

You're not going to believe me but he's dead Cardiac arrest, 2011

He managed to get all the way to 2011? Fair play to him, defying the odds like that.

 

[Soldi]

Its ok we’ll just switch to 1999 instead

[ButterTart]

The indignity of poor Sweden being forced to send songs in their native language.

 

[Lucille]

Finally a BEAT!

 

[Penelope]

I wasn't HATING IT

I just wasn't LOVING IT MUCH EITHER

 

[lolly]

OOH

WATCH OUT FOR THE MICROPHONE GETTING UNPLUGGED

 

[Lucille]

Finally a BEAT!

WITH A TUNELESS QUEEN.

 

[Lucille]

He’s the most fuckable man we’re getting isn’t he?

 

[Penelope]

 

[ButterTart]

The guitarist on the right looks like he's transitioning, but I don't know in which direction.

 

[Alla]

Have fun, nite! x

 

[Lucille]

Actually HOTTER NOW.
