[Penelope]

Fingers crossed those LABEL WITCHES haven't muted out the reprise

OMG did the Rounder Girls really score a measly 34 points?? I thought they did better than that.

Of COURSE YOU DID

R.I.P. DIABETIC PRE-MAMA

 

[Lucille]

I had actually been looking for the ACTUAL TRACK, so I switched it for it once I found it

But fine, ON POPULAR REQUEST

Let’s all jerk off to this drugged up otter before bed in CELEBRATION!!!

 

[Lucille]

Those hairy shoulders

 

[Penelope]

Did I BLINK AND MISS Charlotte Perrelli?

 

[Penelope]

MUTED! FUCK BUSH!

 

[Lucille]

OMG have they muted the final PERF!

 

[Lucille]

What a waste of 3 hours!!!

 

[Lucille]

Such a fitting end!!!

Well I knew they weren't winners! I thought they wiped the floor with the likes of Nicki French and the singing dildos of Norway though.

That's the spirit.

Here comes Linda Wagenmakers, an entry SO DISASTROUS it SET OFF A FIREWORKS FACTORY ACCIDENT (300 DEAD)

Still furious they stopped broadcasting halfway through the Spanish song (not especially because of Spain) and I had to quickly change the channel to still tape the whole thing. Poor Linda really thought she was going to win.

 

[Dark Carnival]

ARE YOU GUYS SERIOUS?

 

[Dark Carnival]

I went to bed

 

[Mats]

what a fabulous initiative. and what a shit winner

*has citizenship revoked*

 

[ButterTart]

I wish I was still young and vital enough to drink and watch videos until such an ungodly hour.

 

[Lucille]

There was talk of a THIRD CONTEST last night at some point. Thankfully someone PUT DOWN THE PIPE.

 

[win_the_game]

I’m denying all knowledge of this thread.

 

[GinAg (39)]

It was a magical night, full of FIREWORKS for EVERY DUTCH HOME.

 

[Alla]

I like the idea of selected songs muted, more of this!

Poor Alsou. Her English language pop album was fab, but she’s buried her career and all the good will in Russia by rigging The Voice Kids last year. Basically her and her oligarch husband had hired bots to make their daughter win by a landslide, when she was the worst contestant in that final. In the end, the production voided the whole final, made a new one where their daughter didn’t appear and pronounced the rest of the kids as winners.

Her reputation going solo indeed.

at everything about this. What a WOMAN. I didn't know she still had a career but if she only "buried" it last year that seems like quite a good innings (assuming all that's real, it sounds like evil fan fiction)

I love "Solo", probably one of my favourite entries of all time. This era of cold-pop for Russia is probably my favourite in their trajectory

 

[Raining on Me]

I started drinking early on so simply gave way by the end of 98, but TWO contests in a night?

Disgusted at the youthful energy on display on moopy

It’s real. Even BBC wrote about it. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-48293196

Also, Russians tried to get Denmark disqualified after ESC, claiming that Olsens were miming with that vocoder effect and that it was against the rules and so, but obviously nothing happened. Fellas merely wanted to get down with the kids...

 

[Lucille]

The second contest is all a bit of a blur tbh.

MONSTROUS. Haven't you all got JOBS to not go to of a morning?

 

[Suomi]

Alsou has been consistently popular in Russia since 2000, and recently released English language material again

 

[win_the_game]

Reading this back it went over the cliff edge before the first song was performed.

 

[Lucille]

I’m surprised you can read it back, I’m ignoring it like the texts I send drunk.

I'm watching this thread from the sidelines, but I've just had to tune in for this fabulous Maltese Jane McDonald

Bloody hell it really is like CRUISING WITH CLAUDETTE PACE.

 

[win_the_game]

And who knew Moopy Rewatch winners Ping Pong have their own documentary - THE LOSER TAKES IT ALL: OUR EUROVISION HELL.



That's my evening sorted.

 

[win_the_game]

What an unfortunate thumbnail.

 

[lolly]

Kind of want to do another RIGHT NOW
