"Euphoria" is both anthemic + catchy enough to be a bona fide worldwide (well pan-European at least) hit even outside ESC season I think

Don't want the expense of hosting the contest next year? Simply get someone from a TV talent contest to sing your entry!A tactic more and more countries are using.

I'm not sure all ESC-heads regularly check the Bobby Bare thread, so I'll post this fun fact here as well. Just think what might have been, with Engelbert only the second-oldest old-skool star in this year's final...
Bare was a participant in this year's Norwegian selection final for the Eurovision Song Contest, partnering up with some other dude. They finished third.

I think they'd be happy to avoid that too.

Bummed Turkey made it through. Like a bad comedian attempting to act like Marc Almond c. 1989.

Can't believe people voted for Estonia AND Lithuania - how much tedium can one final take?

You'll see bad comedian attempting to act like Marc Almond c. 1989 on Saturday, though. :p And a Sweden WIN one supposes. (I had high hopes for the song sung in UDMURT, but it is useless alas.)

Felt like Loreen's show didn't really come together tonight? I equivocate back and forth as to whether the song has general appeal outside of boshland.

I think it's a pretty decent Eurobosh single but i'm not sure there's enough there to win over the older audience.
― Just like you, except hot (ShariVari), Thursday, 24 May 2012 21:41 (eleven years ago) link
I guess it's between Sweden, Russia and Italy. Beyond that: ??? I don't think we'll see a runaway winner.
