Beautiful Loser 48,618 Posted March 21, 2022 It. Is. Happenniiiiiiinnngggg! The boss for Sweden's outtakes for Eurovision got bored and emigrated to the States to start... American Song Contest!! With Snoop Dogg (Snoop Lion? I forgot what he goes by these days) and Kelly Clarkson as hosts! From my understanding, the interest is lukewarm at best in America. To be honest, so is mine because I don't really know what to expect, all I've heard is that Michael Bolton competes for Connecticut and Oklahoma has a k-pop artist. But! I'm gonna watch it anyway because I literally have run out of things to watch on youtube, except for Poirot and Kitchen Nightmates. Yes. That's all I have left. And history documentaries. It starts tonight on NBC! I'm gonna watch it sometime later and root for Georgia. --------------------------------------- ABOUT AMERICAN SONG CONTEST America's biggest live entertainment event has arrived! Based on the worldwide phenomenon "Eurovision Song Contest," a musical spectacular watched by 200 million viewers annually, "American Song Contest," the U.S. version of the international megahit, will feature live original musical performances, representing all 50 states, five U.S. territories and the nation's capital, competing to win the country's vote for Best Original Song. A solo artist, duo, DJ or band will represent each location and perform a new, original song. The live competition will consist of three rounds as the acts compete in Qualifying Rounds, Semi Finals and the ultimate Grand Final where one state or territory will emerge victorious. 2 Quote LANABOARDS DEMOGRAPHICS SURVEY 2024 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Liz Taylor Blues 18,728 Posted March 21, 2022 Yawn can’t we just threaten our way into Eurovision? What’s rhe point in being a world power if we have to resort to sad measures like this.

I know you're joking, but I find it quite distasteful considering the tension(s) we're living in at the moment. 3 Quote LANABOARDS DEMOGRAPHICS SURVEY 2024 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Liz Taylor Blues 18,728 Posted March 21, 2022 I see what you mean but I don’t think its more distasteful than the numerous people cheering on nuclear war because they want a no fly zone in ukraine….. but yeah i realize that not everyone likes dark humor about world events Anyways I hope somebody kooky from Florida or Alaska really any of the peninsulas wins 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beautiful Loser 48,618 Posted March 23, 2022 I’m currently watching... I thought the stage would be bigger because everything in the US is huge lol, but I guess it makes sense since this is the first time they’re giving it a try. ^^’ I was also reminded this is American Tv with all the commercial breaks. :’) It’s not bad! All the contestants are so serious to win, but I don’t feel like any song is *great*? But then again, I rarely like the ESC songs or the Swedish outtakes songs, haha. It’s cute. :3 Edit: LMAO YESSSSS THE COYBOY RAPPING ABOUT HIS BOOTS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR 1 Quote LANABOARDS DEMOGRAPHICS SURVEY 2024 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
