Eurovision 2019

[Crazyface]

Look, if you don't like this, please don't post.

I've made an almighty "mess" this year. i've gone and booked a trip away when this is on, so will not be having a party. I'm currently listening to ALL entrants at work, busy busy. I'll let you know if any song jumps out. And before you ask, the UK one is utter s h one t.

Australia, opera, what's that about???

Never used to watch the performances but turned in to listen to Sir Terry. As his bottle of Baileys went down the sarcasm levels went up. Great comedy value👍

 

[Crazyface]

So, after listening to the lot, this is my, utterly useless going off previous years, attempts to guess the winner. It will come from one of:-

Belarus / Switzerland / Cyprus / Germany / Denmark / Spain / Ireland / Latvia / Malta.

I'm having another listen to these now to narrow it down.

As it is you, call them and they might move the date!!

Can i do that????

 

[IanM]

Only you and Terry Wogan's ghost!

 

[User62651]

Haven't seen this in many years, agree Wogan was all that was good about it. Alway think of Father Ted and 'My Lovely Horse' whenever the word Eurovision is mentioned.

Quick look at wikipedia there to see winners, I see Celine Dion won, had no idea she's entered for Switzerland, thought she was French Canadian?
Terrible song and terrible perm too -

right up there with my fav songs of all time is "My Lovely Horse " often seen singing it to myself while walking the dogs, even got the same shooting Gillet as Father Dougal has on while doing it, no wonder i get strange looks sometimes

I don't think you have to be from the country you enter for. Remember we had 'Gina G' who was Australian one year??

Ozzies seem terribly keen to be permanently part of this event, god knows why. Maybe it's the humour value or the campness of it all, certainly not for the music.

This year I might watch it for the first time in decades, purely for the comedy value of seeing the UK get a total of Nil points.

It has never, ever been about music.

I started to watch the first semi final but could stand the presenters....as usual.

 

[USER1999]

Australia? Eurovision? Weird.

Their presentation was very good swinging about on big sticks , not sure about the song though.. Pity our guy couldn't sing and stay in tune.

 

[Lord Tyrion]

My choices, in order

Sweden
Denmark
San Marino
Spain

Don't blame me if you lose money 😄.

Weird outside bet, Australia 😳

 

[williamalex1]

TBH i haven't really watched it all , just been flicking between the golf, the forum and a few euro crap songs.

Bonding night with my teenage daughter 😄, that's what I'm claiming anyway.

Well that’s what Europe think of us.

They're seemingly " Bigger Than Us "
