Hopefully a couple of countries won’t win just because of sympathy. If they can manage to enter I’m sure they can expect it to be fair.

You can never be sure with Eurovision though!

Eurovision hasn't been fair for years.

Switzerland - SO good!

Catchy, fun, camp, the guy looked like a chicken when he ran across the stage in his chunky trainers.

Brilliant.

Wo-uh-ohh.

Definitely needs scaling back a bit
So unnecessary

It's meant to be glitter, sequins, boppy tunes and yes very camp but all of the near nakedness and gyrating - just why?

loropianalover · 11/05/2024 21:49

I liked Estonia and Greece!! I’m in bed now though so will wait until morning to see who’s won 🤫

Princesspollyyy · 11/05/2024 21:49

Ollie's vocals were really weak for some reason. Such a shame.

blooming24 · 11/05/2024 21:50

Have you actually seen the others 🤣
It's okay but very catchy.

Princesspollyyy · 11/05/2024 21:51

I thought Cyprus were really good

COPPER3 · 11/05/2024 21:52

For the love of fucking god...I switched on to watch singing and a bit of good ole Euro... (I admit I haven't watched for many a year...plus witnessed Abba winning)..but do I want to witness gay porn in a dirty urinal...??
Utter shite...
So disappointed in our entry.
I like Germany, Israel, Ukraine...

It's gone too far the other way. I wouldn't want to watch this year's with kids.

Really?

our entry wasn’t great but I don’t think the rest have been so bad… Finland was naked but in a funny way.

Yeah Im committed to my country’s entry. Had it been shit I’d have not started a thread! Just supported/suffered in silence.

First time I've ever switched Eurovision off, I've watched it every year since childhood (I'm 48 btw). I got half way through uks song and I couldn't take anymore I felt like satanic dark erotica being heavily pushed on Europe, it was boring and depressing.

murasaki · 11/05/2024 21:24

His singing had no volume to it, it was weak, I thought.

Ireland and Estonia are my favourites so far.

Love Ollie but not a good song for him

LightSpeeds · 11/05/2024 21:56

montelbano · 11/05/2024 21:30

He was atrocious

^This. It was bloody awful.

Nil points!

What on earth is there to like about it? It is a crap song, performed by a weak singer and the whole premise was centred around a group of men having gay sex in a dirty toilet? It was appalling.
The worst performance in a show of utter rubbish. Not a single thing either DH or I would want to see or hear again.
Everything about the show is terrible- the woman screaming just now is terrible.

Yes really. Its turned into adult entertainment.

HugeCwtch · 11/05/2024 21:58

SquashPenguin · 11/05/2024 21:27

One of the most boring songs I’ve ever seen.

Yeah, and forgettable

MissusPotato · 11/05/2024 21:58

It was awful. He can't sing.

Pomegranatecarnage · 11/05/2024 21:58

Armenia and Croatia were the best. Just fun, no half naked gyrations. Switzerland is a good pop song.

BearFacedCheek · 11/05/2024 21:58

Switzerland was also fab!

YouveGotAFastCar · 11/05/2024 21:59

Fair enough. There’s been a few more barely dressed people since but I thought it was pretty standard Eurovision before that.

that said, my toddler is in bed, so perhaps that shades my view.

Sometimeswinning · 11/05/2024 21:59

Croatia 🙌🏻 Adam and the Ants!
