What are the load-bearing posts of our time? Obviously 'facing god and walking backwards into hell' and 'miette' are up there. Does Ed Balls still count? PS if you can parse this you should probably log off

moldova and cyprus had opposite journeys at eurovision 2022
moldova was an unpopular song, rehearsal photos were not great and then it did super damn well and we all knew why
cyprus was a popular song, rehearsal photos were great and then it vocally flopped and we all knew why
people on esc twitter: did you know that due to australia's non-qualification and russia's absence, the finalists of eurovision 2024 will cover less land area than in any contest since 1999?
people in real life: hey man hows it going
seeing rim tim tagi dim being called a joke entry by people that apparently care about songs being Meaningful makes me think these people either don't actually care about meaning or aren't intelligent enough to look for it. like they heard loud noises and checked out
two things can be true:
- wild youth have received a lot of unwarranted hate on this app
- conor's behaviour today after the nq has been pretty disappointing
i am prepared for some disagreement on this front but imo the four successive zeroes is probably the most shocking result we've ever seen unfold live in front of us, ever
eurovision is so weird. eden alene came seventeenth and now she's a waitress. rosa linn came twentieth one year later and yesterday she accrued seven billion streams
i think my biggest issue with the eurovision shows this year - apart from the obvious - is that they feel oversaturated with eurovision. we have postcards with old entries, we have recaps of old entries, every interval is some old artist. it's like putting milk powder in milk
questioned:
- full Slovene voting data
- Netherlands' disqualification
- anti-booing technology
- EU flag ban
- possible influence of sponsor?
- Rest of the World vote
๐ธ๐ฎ RTVSLO has shared a press release following the events of
#Eurovision
2024.
They seek "concrete answers" from the EBU about the exclusion of the Netherlands, use of anti-booing technology and possible influence of sponsors, among other issues.
More:
fed chatgpt the lyrics of each song from this year and asked it to give the song a title (with an explanation). i don't think they've quite worked it out

eurosong is a great national final - not technically brilliant but i have a lot of fun watching it. however it really just feels like a lot of artists in ireland have this sore-loser attitude and for as long as that exists, they'll never improve at eurovision
there have been *54* languages present at eurovision between the last time we had a word of norwegian and now (2020 counts) - you can argue about what counts and what doesn't but with a liberal definition i'm sure you could hit 60
๐จ๐ญ The three other writers have had previous Melodi Grand Prix involvement:
๐น Linda Dale: composer/lyricist on "Queen of Kings" and "Woman Show".
๐ธ Benji Alasu: composer/lyricist on "FREYA".
๐น NYLAN: composer/lyricist on "Geronimo".
Could this be the Swiss

entry?
