Imo Spain 2022 song was overrated but I loved the performance and the performer. The choreo was world-level imoΒ But talking about Ukraine, I still sometimes listen to the 2021 song (it got 5th place if I'm not wrong), it was such anΒ unique bangerΒ 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fuck Our Generation 753 Posted May 10 I just read that Italian televote percentages were accidentally published, and Israel had the 40%, while other countries were below 10% and I can say that it was kinda shocking. Also in a few hours Israel is first at betting odds with 43% of winning this year's contest... Β Edit: Now it has 20% and Croatia is in the lead 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fuck Our Generation 753 Posted May 10 Things are really messed up, I'm really worried about eurovision. They are doing weird things in the dress rehearsals like skipping jurors and withdrawing The Netherlands (from the rehearsals). Everybody vote for Croatia please. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kraljicabenzinske 11,249 Posted May 10 8 minutes ago, Deadly Nightshade said: what is happening behind the scenes ?Β Yesterday a scandal happened with the italian television leaking the voting results from the second semi-final with Israel taking 40% of the Italian votes (second place got 7%). People are worried Israel is winning and saying that this would be the end of the Eurovision. Today there was an incident with the Dutch representative, allegedly some conflict between him and the Israeli delegation, so the Dutch representative did not appear for the rehearsals which started around 1pm. And apparently the rehearsals are not going well. The jury show is tonight and people don't know what's gonna happen with the Netherlands, EBU just said they're under investigation. The atmosphere seems really tense cus of everything. I hope it all clears up and the show continues normally... 1 Quote Β *:ο½₯οΎβ§*:ο½₯οΎβ§βΏβπ¦π² π π¨π¨ππ’π§ππ¬π¬ π’π¬ π¦π² π©π¨πππ«π²ββΏβ§ο½₯οΎ: *β§ο½₯οΎ:* Β *:ο½₯οΎβ§*:ο½₯οΎβ§βΏβπ¦π² π¬π’π₯π₯π’π§ππ¬π¬ π’π¬ π¦π² π₯ππ πππ²ββΏβ§ο½₯οΎ: *β§ο½₯οΎ:* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Embach 40,762 Posted May 11 fuck eurovision, i read now that it's confirmed that the netherlands has been disqualified. now they're fucking disqualifying countries?? for fighting with a photographer or some shit? like it's happening for the first time? but apparently, a country who is commiting a genocide can participate, right? what kind of sorcery is this??? fuck, i wanted the netherlands to win so bad... Their slogan is "united by music"?? 2024 is the worst ESC year, I'm sorry. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Embach 40,762 Posted May 11 it's so sad knowing that the netherlands singer joost had promised his parents (before they died)Β that when he'll grow up he'll perform at eurovision. now when his dream has come true, the eurovision literally fucked him over. he even started the eurovision campaign last year. justice for joost. i don't even want to watch it anymore. if israel actually wins, i want eurovision to end for good. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
