Eurovision rewatch: A Song for Europe 1995 MIDNIGHT 17/04/20

[dmlaw]

Didn't Crazy for you happen before this? I think it did.

It's not like they'd have been invited on here BEFORE Crazy For You.

 

[lolly]

How are we going to fit the scoring in? Is this video edited?

 

[Zu]

I’m not actually watching this drivel as once was QUITE ENOUGH first time round but ALLES GUTE ZUM GEBURTSTAG LIEBER @lolly!

 

[ButterTart]

How are we going to fit the scoring in? Is this video edited?

Oh fuck, it looks like this is only half of it. We'll never know how it ends!

 

[lolly]

Trend Alert: Acrylic sweaters

(and lesbians)

 

[Alla]

It took me a while to understand the "stars" that were talking to Wogan had nothing to do with the songs

 

[dmlaw]

Fuck me, SCARLET!

You're barking up the wrong tree there.

 

[win_the_game]

This leukemia tribute is one of the better efforts so far.

 

[lolly]

Someone pass this poor love her inhaler

 

[Soldi]

Oh I quite like this one

 

[ButterTart]

I don't think that charity's seeing a penny, Graham.

 

[Alla]

Liking this lesbian anthem

I think this one was done by a televote. They probably just popped up on the National Lottery and announced that Sam Fox was going to Eurovision.

 

[ButterTart]

That was actually quite good. I bet she'd have an alright voice if she tried.

 

[Alla]

2 more songs to come? I don't remember who won, but surely none of them so far.

If you think none of these deserved to win, just WAIT until you hear the one that won.

 

[Alla]

I just said I KNOW they didn't win (but not that they deserved it).

 

[win_the_game]

They're really selling this. It's SIMPLE, STRAIGHT FORWARD, CONVENTIONAL.

 

[Alla]

This was the year before Gina G,I just can't remember, so it was probably shit.

 

[lolly]

What a DISGUSTING song title

 

[Soldi]

Oh a ballad

 

[dmlaw]

The songwriters hope that after this Simon will be much better known. The absence of his own Wikipedia page could mean any number of things.

 

[lolly]

That jacket is a lovely shade of mauve, though

 

[Alla]

An X Factor audition. Next.

 

[ButterTart]

I hate absolutely everything about this one. Title, the writers, Christopher Maloney singing it...

 

[Alla]

Christopher Maloney singing it...

I was gonna say

 

[Soldi]

I hate absolutely everything about this one. Title, the writers, Christopher Maloney singing it...

I was reading his Moopy Gold thread earlier, I wonder what’s in his FRIDGE TONIGHT

 

[lolly]

That degree of root lift is quite suspect

 

[Alla]

The audience clapping and cheering

 

[lolly]

That was utterly disgusting

 

[lolly]

Ugh

 

[ButterTart]

The songwriters hope that after this Simon will be much better known. The absence of his own Wikipedia page could mean any number of things.

The first three Google results for his name bring up a veterinary pathologist, a 'Wellcome Trust scholar' and an entry in the Milken Archive of Jewish Music.

 

[win_the_game]

This was actually released as a single.

 

[Alla]

Is this man for real?

 

[ButterTart]

That was utterly disgusting

It was truly revolting.

I'm surprised that it doesn't mention his number two hit with 'Black and Gold'.

 

[Soldi]

I have to admit I used to quite like Love City Groove when growing up

 

[ButterTart]

Those bloody Amewican impowted wap wecowds.

 

[lolly]

There's something amusing about someone with a speech impediment calling themselves Beanz, for some reason.

 

[Alla]

Oh dear, more shit. How many songs left?
