Magnus Carlsson - Möt mig i Gamla stan - 2015 - Sweden
Submitted by @ButterTart
Beaten by Måns Zelmerlöw - Heroes

 

[ButterTart]

This is a stupidly good song. Far and away my favourite he's ever sent.

 

[dmlaw]

I would have realised that you could be both a Melodifestivalen regular and a chess grandmaster, but Magnus shows that it’s possible.

Catarina Pereira - Mea Culpa - 2014 - Portugal

Beaten by Suzy - Quero ser tua

 

[dmlaw]

I haven’t yet scored the last four songs because it would mean sitting up and I really need to get on with it.

 

[ButterTart]

Imagine Portugal having two listenable Eurovision songs in the one heat. The world's gone mad.

 

[ButterTart]

I haven’t yet scored the last four songs because it would mean sitting up and I really need to get on with it.

Oh sitting up is overrated. I'm reclining as we speak.

Beaten by Teräsbetoni - Missä miehet ratsastaa

 

[ButterTart]

We're getting very close to the end now

 

[ButterTart]

I will win POTW if it's the last thing I do.

 

[dmlaw]

It seems that these vocals must have been recorded on a much better quality potato than the visuals.

I think you’ll be fine. You’ve done more posts than last week’s top 50 combined just in this thread.

I'd better knock together a 'what's your favourite type of potato' thread just to be on the safe side.

 

[ButterTart]

Also I really like this song. I'd not heard it prior to the rate and it's the exact sort of willowy, overproduced old nonsense I go in for.

Beaten by Martin Stenmarck - Las Vegas

 

[ButterTart]

Google is trying to tell me these are potatoes. I demand a steward's enquiry.

 

[dmlaw]

I really would like to know how Sweden managed this.

Martin Stenmarck beating it, do you mean?

 

[dmlaw]

Martin Stenmarck beating it, do you mean?

Yes. I see it was down to juries from some of the more shithole parts of the country. Fuck you, Karlstad jury.

 

[ButterTart]

I feel like they did it as a dare. I refuse to believe they actually thought it was the best song.

Muzzart - Only Dance - 2015 - Belarus

Beaten by Uzari and Maimuna - Time

 

[dmlaw]

Muzzart, you say. It’s like when there’s a cartoon dog who is a composer and they call his MuttZart.

Anyway, I really don’t like the Muzzart song.

Holy shit I think you've just birthed a franchise.

Sensible

Obviously, 1000 Miles is one of the top ten or so artistic achievements of humanity.

They should fire it off in a spaceship for alien civilisations like they did with Johnny B Goode.

 

[ButterTart]

Italy really are very good at music.

 

[dmlaw]

This Italian song is lovely as well. I realise that they’re trying to lose, but it’s still sad that they got stuck with Brividi for this year.

At least they're giving us Fai Rumore as an interval.

Just three more!

If that split in her skirt was much higher, you’d see her Heart Shaped Hole.
