Yo yo yo

Australia's Isaiah has great eyebrows

I like Belarus's entry because native language.

by **Princess Alexandra** Thu Mar 09, 2017 3:04 pm

He's Aboriginal, so his eyebrow game is strong.

It's nice and cheery and doesn't sound too generic.

Speaking of generic, I really feel nothing about our entry. It's so forgettable and boring.

So far my favourites are Cyprus, Austria and Hungary.

Cyprus' guy is Armenian Cypriot, which is cool. Really ties into the "Celebrate Diversity" doesn't it :P

by **Zexiness** Thu Mar 09, 2017 6:15 pm

I actually like our entry a bit and think it could fare well enough. Much better than some other crap we've been getting the past few years.

I should go listen to Cyprus soon.

by **Princess Alexandra** Fri Mar 10, 2017 12:31 am

I mean Utopian Land was worse but at least there was something vaguely interesting about it

This one is just forgetable.

by **Zexiness** Fri Mar 10, 2017 4:10 am

Eh idk, I don't think either is forgettable.

That "This is love, rain falls from above" part is catchy.

Yay for diversity, Australia.

I don't like Italy's entry.

Has Eurovision changed over the years for you guys?

I'm sure like a lot of things Eurovision has changed a lot and times go by.

Some Europeans I've talked to irl used to be into Eurovision, but not anymore.

It's interesting how the flame seems to grow strong for some.

Also, did Sweden not qualify for the finals or something because I saw some things on Tumblr about that.

Come to think of it, all of Australia's entries have been of non British (or Irish) descent. Guy Sebastian is Malaysian, Dami Im is Korean and Isaiah is Aboriginal.

I don't like it either. If it didn't qualify automatically I could totally see it struggling in the semis.

Idk. I could say there's not as many "weird" entries but I can actually think of plenty from the last few years.
There seems to be an increase in ballads? But tbh i only remember the good songs from older years, so there must have been a lot of those before too (Monaco and Andorra always seemed to send those).

In Greece the interest is certainly diminished now that we don't do as well.

Sweden qualifies automatically as the previous winner. So do the Big Five as you probably know.

by **Cuteness** Fri Mar 10, 2017 7:21 pm

I love ballads, but I want my weird.

I didn't know the previous winner qualifies.

by **Zexiness** Fri Mar 10, 2017 8:53 pm

I don't really like ballads, most just sound like the same repetitive thing.

Our song is kinda like that too but at least it has a catchy part.

I find the hypocrisy absolutely hilarious

The Russian cultural imperative with respect to disabled people is to pretend that they don't exist. There isn't a single city that would provide any sort of infrastructure for disabled people. And nobody gives a fuck.
And yet, here these corrupt fucking cunts are, parading as if they care, because look, they even sent a woman in a wheelchair to the Eurovision
Fucking paragons of empowerment

by **Princess Alexandra** Mon Mar 13, 2017 9:06 am

I see. Should've figured as much.

by **Cuteness** Wed Mar 15, 2017 12:07 am

by **Cuteness** Wed Mar 15, 2017 1:13 am

Russia's song reminds me of a song but I can't think of it atm.

Apparently they still sad about Golden Boy according to YT comments

Now a tune that sounds Bollywood inspired, but no cool dance for that?

*

Portugal

Love his handkerchief

I'm guessing it's a love song because I heard heart. Reminds me of those homely old songs.

*

Hungary

so many triangles

I like the instrumental part of the song a lot.

why they show more of the drum part rhythm in like the last part of the song

*
Germany

Beginning and beat reminds me of David Guetta's Titanium

love the lighting and Levina's hair

Is there triangle for delta for the change for perfect life?

From YT comments, Greek kisses on this song

Yeah, and yodeling isn't even a Romanian thing XD

by **Cuteness** Wed Mar 15, 2017 2:07 am

People yodel in the Alps, no?

by **Princess Alexandra** Wed Mar 15, 2017 6:31 am

Indeed, but Romania is quite far from the Alps. XD

by **Cuteness** Mon Mar 20, 2017 3:10 am

I swa Semi-finals on the Eurovision YT channel which means Eurovision is coming close

by **Princess Alexandra** Mon Mar 20, 2017 10:13 am

It's actually in May, but I guess they wanted to group them together now that all of them have been picked/revealed.

by **Cotton** Mon Mar 20, 2017 6:44 pm

I hate 99% of ballads honestly

I'd prefer that fucking turkey puppet to a ballad

by **Cuteness** Sat Apr 22, 2017 5:44 am

Timebelle (Switzerland) wants to see the Yodel song^[video] lol

by **Cuteness** Tue May 02, 2017 2:57 am

I feel like I'm more interested in Greece's backup dancers than the singers welp

by **Cuteness** Sat May 06, 2017 3:42 am

I forgot when is this year's Eurovision finale. Can someone tell me?

by **Princess Alexandra** Sat May 06, 2017 8:42 am

This Saturday, 13th.

the first semifinal is on the 9th, and the second is on the 11th.

by **Zexiness** Sat May 06, 2017 4:48 pm

Eurovision week is coming :) I should get more involved with it again, I've kinda left listening to other countries' songs and commenting etc. at the side for a while.

I have a final on the Monday after that. I'm gonna be rushing with studying and cleaning that day.

Now, I feel concerned because I don't know the US broadcast situation of Eurovision this year.

by **Princess Alexandra** Sun May 07, 2017 4:58 am

Thr only one that hugely conflicts with a final for me is semifinal 2 which is right before my Physics final.

by **Cuteness** Sun May 07, 2017 11:09 pm

Maybe Eurovision will give you strength for physics

by **Princess Alexandra** Mon May 08, 2017 4:31 am

Lol

"I fanally understand how waves work now!"

by **Zexiness** Mon May 08, 2017 5:50 pm

Thankfully it's a bit too early for it to conflict with my finals :)

I'm not a fan of the lyrics change in Greece's song. That "rain falls from above" part was my favourite. Still like the song, though, I have a feeling it can do well enough, past the semi-final (unlike the shit we got last year). [s]Also I didn't like the dancers as much as I'd expect ;)[/s]

Also finally listened to Cyprus' song, that took me longer than usual. Wow, just realised that their singer Hovig is a guy I knew from the old Greek X-Factor. Song's kinda meh though yet their dance is interesting.

by **Zexiness** Tue May 09, 2017 3:04 pm

First semi-final is starting :D

by **Zexiness** Tue May 09, 2017 3:18 pm

Sweden: treadmills
Georgia: mimicking Conchita
Australia: just Isaiah
Albania: Nice voice. Also I guess everything's going to have flashy effects these days.
Belgium: Reminds me of some other song I can't remember atm
Montenegro: DAT HAIR
Finland: meh
Azerbaijan: chalkboard!
Portugal: Let's use the smaller stage as our niche. Also dem facial expressions
GREECE: GREECE

by **Cuteness** Thu May 11, 2017 12:53 am

I might miss some of Eurovision on Saturday because my mom wants me to go with her somewhere as I'm the only one in the household who apparently knows how to use a GPS and knows street directions.

Either that or I just have a better understanding of GPS directions as long as it's not Apple's Maps app.

On 5/13/17, at 11:16 AM, you know who wrote:
> Eurovision is being broadcast on Logo again. I wonder who are they going to be thirsty for this year.

Last year, it was Amir (France). It seems that he is in Kiev this year judging by Instagram.

by **Cuteness** Sat May 13, 2017 3:02 pm

I see balls dropping everywhere. whoa
