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.

2 AZERBAIJAN Jiva - Just Go
3 ROMANIA Alexandra Căpitănescu - Choke Me
4 LUXEMBOURG Eva Marija - Mother Nature

Are the lyrics "Holy Fuck"??!

I was thinking that!

MrsMoastyToasty · 14/05/2026 20:41

France = Faye from Steps does opera.

the80sweregreat · 14/05/2026 20:41

Alice , Alice , who the hell is Alice ?
.. lovely hair.

ProfMummBRaaarrrTheEverLeaking · 14/05/2026 20:42

Been fast forwarding through the postcards.

Holy fuck is accurate. Not keen on this at all.

RedToothBrush · 14/05/2026 20:42

More skipping ropes.

Lots of women tonight.

Brian Moloko from Placebo anyone?

No! Nowhere near as beautiful as Brian was (in 1996, anywayGrin).

OublietteBravo · 14/05/2026 20:42

Is she trying to guide a boat to It’s mooring?

Ha ha

the80sweregreat · 14/05/2026 20:43

They like shoulder pads don’t they.

CrushingOnRubies · 14/05/2026 20:43

quite like this from Switzerland. Did someone get a job lot of rope by accident

OublietteBravo · 14/05/2026 20:43

It’s basically “rope and angst”

Fast800goingforit · 14/05/2026 20:43

The video for this was a lot cooler

RedToothBrush · 14/05/2026 20:43

Its like a bunch of pissed up adults started playing on the local climbing frame

OP posts:
Raahh · 14/05/2026 20:44

This is rubbish.
Are the red nets left over from Olly Alexander?

We know you aren't playing th at, love.

RedToothBrush · 14/05/2026 20:36

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

Help! I looked when the French woman turned up. Just tried again and failed. How do I do this? Windows laptop, Firefox browser, moretechnical details available on request...

OublietteBravo · 14/05/2026 20:45

The vocals tonight are much better than they were on Tuesday.

That's true.

booksnbaking · 14/05/2026 20:45

Don’t try to understand ‘em
Just rope and throw and brand ‘em…

Wait till Delta's on stage. Blows most of them away!----

CrushingOnRubies · 14/05/2026 20:46

I remember Antigone from Love Island. Last series I watched I think

RedToothBrush · 14/05/2026 20:47

DS thinks they sing "toilet toilet"

OublietteBravo · 14/05/2026 20:47

It’s very literal staging. She is dancing on the table. Worst vocals of the evening though.

Fast800goingforit · 14/05/2026 20:47

This is formulaic Eurovision. Vocals not great.

Raahh · 14/05/2026 20:48

This lot are wearing the clothes the divorcing couple were cutting up.

Her singing is terrible.
But that's not why she was chosen, clearly.
