After Tuesday's festival of Fire and Ice (with no Will Ferrell irony) and the truly wonderfully socked Australia/Austria Interval act from Cutprice Katherine Ryan and her pal Austrian Smashy I'm sure you all can't wait. Tonight sees a Eurovision song called "Ya Ya Ya". Could it be anymore Eurovision? Get your pleather and odd knee high boots on.

1 BULGARIA Dara - Bangaranga
2 AZERBAIJAN Jiva - Just Go
3 ROMANIA Alexandra Căpitănescu - Choke Me
4 LUXEMBOURG Eva Marija - Mother Nature
5 CZECHIA Daniel Zizka - Crossroads
FRANCE Monroe - Regarde
6 ARMENIA Simón - Paloma Rumba
7 SWITZERLAND Veronica Fusaro - Alice
8 CYPRUS Antigoni - Jalla
AUSTRIA Cosmó - Tanzschein
9 LATVIA Atvara - Ēnā
10 DENMARK Søren Torpegaard Lund - Før Vi Går Hjem
11 AUSTRALIA Delta Goodrum - Eclipse
12 UKRAINE Leléka - Ridnym
UNITED KINGDOM Look Mum No Computer - Eins, Zwei, Drei
13 ALBANIA Alis - Nân
14 MALTA Aidan - Bella
15 NORWAY Jonas Lovv - Ya Ya Ya

That skirt is coming off in a sec, surely. Drink!

No? OK, just the operatic vocals that are a style throwback, then.

Weirdly @RedToothBrush I thought the reverse. Didn't like the video much!

RedToothBrush · 14/05/2026 20:34

Misheard lyrics:
"Ein, Zwei, Drei, Something, Something, Something"

A strong performance from France.

the80sweregreat · 14/05/2026 20:35

Our one is pants. Sorry.
It may get a few points , but I feel it’ll sink without a trace.

Fast800goingforit · 14/05/2026 20:35

Where's Sam Ryder when you need him?

RedToothBrush · 14/05/2026 20:36

BTW. Reminder. If you haven't got your subtitles on...

So we’re seeing this rather than the green room? They must’ve had lots of complaints on Tuesday!

Raahh · 14/05/2026 20:36

I do like ours.

The UK entry, singing about ditching the UK Grin.

Catchier than many of the others. We have a history of dross...Scooch, Darren Sampson, etc.

Man in post its.

booksnbaking · 14/05/2026 20:37

Did I hear “glad to be a pony”? I’m too old for this. Bring back Portugal’s singing geography teachers, more my style.

Custard, though. Mmm.

RedToothBrush · 14/05/2026 20:37

Nod to previous Armenian entry with the poststick notes.

CraftandGlamour · 14/05/2026 20:38

Catching up.

Bulgaria - Only fans

Azerbaijan - really don't want to host. Ever. (Why do half the women look like Capt James T Kirk's improbable love interests or pornhub escapees?
Romania - so not really abpit choking and yet you've gone for a bondage aethestic? Not fooling anyone. Silly girl. Nil points for the edgelady
Luxembourg - Disney Alanis
Czechia- Man in the Mirrors
France - La Miserable. Kind of love it.

Can't write and read subtitles at same time (deaf) - apologies if I'm repeating others ;)

RedToothBrush · 14/05/2026 20:38

Brian Moloko from Placebo anyone?

OP posts:
the80sweregreat · 14/05/2026 20:38

nah, the UK entry may get a few points from Germany, but it isn’t that good.

Raahh · 14/05/2026 20:38

This bloke bought a job lot of post-its, and was determined to use them.

CrushingOnRubies · 14/05/2026 20:38

Post -it man!!! Eurovision goes to the office

OublietteBravo · 14/05/2026 20:39

This is nothing like a rumba. And who is Paloma?

Fast800goingforit · 14/05/2026 20:39

It's a traje de luces with fake post its.

Forgettable song.

RedToothBrush · 14/05/2026 20:39

Are the lyrics "Holy Fuck"??!

OP posts:
the80sweregreat · 14/05/2026 20:40

Paloma faith ? No idea. What a load of rubbish.

Raahh · 14/05/2026 20:40

There's a lot of 'office angst ' going on this evening.

Fast800goingforit · 14/05/2026 20:40

RedToothBrush · 14/05/2026 20:39
