OG Kalavision (No longer taking place)

[Alla]

But it's not 3:30, its 4 minutes! I DO SWEAR on my Melodifestivalen dvds Kala said that, Kala to confirm please.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I'd love if it turned into a closed topic to dissuade discussion

omg yes

 

[Kala]

@Alla stop trolling. I cannot be fucked with any more drama. There is no time limit.

 

[Kala]

You lot better behave or the whole thing will be KANCELLED.

 

[Alla]

@Alla stop trolling. I cannot be fucked with any more drama. There is no time limit.

Kala you said there would be a 4 minutes limit!! I don't remember now if you actually posted it here or told me by pm, but I do swear you said that!

 

[AGinAg (37)]

You lot better behave or the whole thing will be KANCELLED.

No more drama please.

*adds more drama*

 

[Alla]

No I'm serious, maybe you told me when you were going to add a rule that songs couldn't be in English? I thought the time limit was standing, I will look for it and post screenshots if needed, I wasn't trolling (not this time)

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I will look for it and post screenshots if needed

 

[Alla]

Being told off the only time I'm not trolling is quite something

 

[Alla]

Ok he told me by pm when he was considering ideas for this. After FIFTY days in lockdown tomorrow I'll be able to go out for a walk, that will do wonders. SORRY.

 

[D5K]

Are we ALLOWED to react to the nations or will that EXPOSE that said nation does not belonging to us?

Oh of course we can react (just like reacting to the song itself), who knows if you're telling the truth anyway?

"Oh wow I can already tell that Burkina Faso's going to be one to watch "

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I'M READY TO REACT

 

[Raining on Me]

I nearly sicked up Chinese leftovers seeing time limits, oh my god you horrible bunch of people don't even go there

 

[Alla]

Me too, I wonder which non European countries we'll get (other than the obvious ones). I will slag off ALL OF THEM.

 

[D5K]

Of course this could lead to another whole load of nervous breakdowns when people start second-guessing themselves from the country reaction and think they need to rethink their choice.

 

[Raining on Me]

I hope whoever gets obvious picks like Sweden trolls us with something very unSwedish and very awful

 

[Alla]

Of course this could lead to another whole load of nervous breakdowns when people start second-guessing themselves from the country reaction and think they need to rethink their choice.

Totally here for this

 

[Raining on Me]

You mean when the countries are revealed before the songs? That would be insanity

"Oh god I NEED to change country, they didn't like the spelling of Eritrea or its strict laws on spaghetti, they'll hate my song!!"

 

[D5K]

"Oh god I NEED to change country, they didn't like the spelling of Eritrea or its strict laws on spaghetti, they'll hate my song!!"

I was thinking more of changing the song choice - "oh god it looks like they hate traditional Tibetan rhythmic buttock slapping so what the hell do I choose now?"

 

[Beverley]

@Alla stop trolling. I cannot be fucked with any more drama. There is no time limit.

Eight minute epic it IS then!

 

[Raining on Me]

I was thinking more of changing the song choice - "oh god it looks like they hate traditional Tibetan rhythmic buttock slapping so what the hell do I choose now?"

I think if the last round proved anything you can send a basic gay banger or a song composed of cornflake crunching with agonized vocals and just as easily win or flop with either.

Actually I had this dilemma when choosing countries. I had a crowd pleasing pop song which is brilliant (to me) versus a wildcard that could go either way. I went with...what I went with.

 

[cwej]

it's literally the most exciting thing in any of our lives right now and frankly I call anyone a liar who says otherwise

I mean. I literally am going to say that yes... it's not the most exciting thing in my life right now.

 

[Raining on Me]

Then you should be disqualified. I'll check with Kala

 

[cwej]

Then you should be disqualified. I'll check with Kala

I am going to absolutely fucking smash this. I'm absolutely obsessed with my entry now.

 

[cwej]

But it's sung in ANCIENT VENUSIAN. Is that allowed in the rules?

 

[Iguana]

But it's sung in ANCIENT VENUSIAN. Is that allowed in the rules?

Yes as long as it's over 10 minutes long.

 

[cwej]

Yes as long as it's over 10 minutes long.

Everyone knows that all VENUSIAN LULLABIES are a minimum of 26 minutes by HIGH ORDER of the Norse god FOO.

 

[cwej]

But seriously. If I don't win with this fucking BRUISER of a track then I don't think there's any point in my life carrying on.

 

[ButterTart]

I mean. I literally am going to say that yes... it's not the most exciting thing in my life right now.

Christ, this would have been the most exciting thing in my life even if we weren't in lockdown. I'm assuming you've either dipped your toe into auto-erotic asphyxiation, or you live with a drug dealer who wants you to help get through his stash before it passes its sell-by date.

 

[Zu]

But seriously. If I don't win with this fucking BRUISER of a track then I don't think there's any point in my life carrying on.

Don’t take my word for it girls but the tarot suggests it might be Bombalurina’s ITSY BITSY TEENY WEENY YELLOW POLKA DOT BIKINI

If OBVIOUSLY!

 

[ButterTart]

I think @Rhythmbarbican has that one earmarked.

 

[Zu]

Thank God!

Be warned, dear @ButterTart, that there’s an ITSY BITSY CLIQUE in this here lounge and I’ll get @Shirley to duff you up if you start being unpleasant about our favourite song ever

 

[ButterTart]

Shirley doesn't scare me. He's left me for dead once before and I'm still standing (on prosthetic legs).

I'm afraid you've got a Bombalurina counter-clique on your hands - Indie and I make no secret of how much we enjoy Seven Little Girls.

 

[dmlaw]

You're all so commercial. There was much better on their album. Splish Splash and Hoots Mon were particular highlights.

 

[ButterTart]

I didn't know Bombalurina had covered Hoots Mon! I should have these tattoos lasered off, I can no longer consider myself a true fan.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I thought we were getting a country list today

@Kalabaliken

 

[Kala]

We FINALLY have all countries selected. I need a bit of time to sort out the COUNTRY REVEAL ceremony. This will take place TOMORROW AFTERNOON.

 

[Kala]

I can reveal that the continent split is as follows:

Europe 28
Asia 8
Africa 2
North America 5
South America 3
Oceania 2

 

[Alla]

North America 5

!!!

Poor Africa

I was researching South African rock bands yesterday just in case everything else I wanted had gone. So be thankful I got my first choice.
