#esc blogging
Greece’s entry is a Norwegian medical student… So someone is going to have a Eurovision finalist as their GP doctor…..
Song wise; I swear I’ve heard it before
Belgium building up to something more interesting. I can see it going on the radio, but I wish the build up led to a little bit more kick
Azerbaijan’s song Fade to Black is a call out to what happens when you get too many ballads in a row; you just go into a boredom coma
Lithuania has a nice voice… But beyond her dress it’s not very ESC party mood
Germany is so damn bland. Interesting that he plays all the instruments… But not cool enough to capture my interest.
Ukraine is hard not to dig. They’ve got a nice mix of folk music, rap and energy
Netherlands is getting a point for signing in Dutch. And I’m sure it’s very emotional and all that. But I was hoping for a little more glam…. :/
Spain has gone for a most expensive name and I don’t think you can bedazzle her clothes any more that that…
Points for non English lyrics
Italia’s song is… Eh. Points for not singing in English… But beyond that. Meh.
One tiny point for having one of the dudes in a full glitter suit
Oh Jesus Christ. Weird rapping in the middle there. This is absolutely chaos. And not good ESC chaos
Italia’s song is… Eh. Points for not singing in English… But beyond that. Meh.
One tiny point for having one of the dudes in a full glitter suit
Appreciate the Italian hosts showing the world what all the hand signals in Italy mean
Armenia has TP’d her entire room…
Norway’s song is absolutely horrendous… But it’s very Eurovision…
France is giving witchy vibes. Folk music and rock is a pretty good mix.
Norway’s commentator: the song is about a woman running away and being free and dancing with the devil. Which is just a standard 40-year old crisis
Switzerland is fighting against toxic masculinity with these lyrics. But perhaps a little too slow…
Also hardly any glitter :/
Finland is bringing back the 90’s!
With some IT vibes and a hint to the god awful rainy weather we’re having in the North….
Portugal is giving us the first balad of the night. Nice song but far too slow….
Bonus points having stuck their faces in the ESC glitter vat before coming on stage
Romania is covering everything in glitter. And the men are dressed more revealing than the ladies. Approved
The televote said “fuck the ballads” and I respect that
