Eurovision 2021

[JaquelineBeanstalk]

OK, I know I'm probably talking to a niche market, but any other euroviz fans out there? Scorecards ready for the first semi-final? got your tree up? bets placed? predictions?

Meh.

On the singing live requirement, i think that has been relaxed this year. So there may be some miming to backing.

Mother I know, that's what confused me- because she really didn't look live (if tht makes sense ).

Really? That's a shame.

Jaqueline that would make sense.

Will join you for the final. Dont think I can work up enthusiasm for a semi.
For some reason, I didnt think there would be one this year. No idea why I thought that. Perhaps there wasnt one last year.
I think I thought we would be kicked out because of the B word.

Never watch the semis but am in front of the telly this year! Big crowd isn’t it?

Ooookay

Its a Russia Dalek!

Number 2 song is not memorable. Preferred the first canary yellow one. They reminded me of Rod, Jane and Freddy with extras.
OMG. Russia. WTF?!

Is that Billie Eilish's Russian aunt?

The Russians need to stick to hacking the Irish health service. They're better at that.

I really can't find the words for this.

This is Eurovision. Hope it qualifies. If only for the WTF moment.

Great horses. This is a bit like the Ukraine winner years ago.

This sounds like the Russian version of Just Say No, by Zammo and friends.

With shades of Turkey in 2003.

Wow, that wall, of real women singing made me well up a bit! Great staging.

Ah. The Swedish refugee.

I liked Russia! It worked in Russian Sweden now (my country) be nice to him he’s only a little fella

This could win. Its good.

This sounds like Avicii or something?

I've always wanted to say this, but is Sweden a bit....pitchy?

He's very good and he's certainly giving it all he's got.

The song's got potential, but is a little bit underwhelming, though.

Definitely a qualifier. Oh there goes the key change. Very Eurovision.
