Yeah, I was a bit lukewarm on it before but it sounds good compared to the patchy offerings we've had so far.

Well the last time the UK won it was a song sung by an American. So maybe that's the key to winning.

I love going from that banger straight into LET ME TAKE MY BODY DOWN TO THE RIIIIIIVER

Leave him in the river

So many gloomy depressive songs this year.

A lot of the staging for these entries seems to consist of "how fast can we get these hundreds of white lights to flash?"

His dad is an opera singer iirc

gyac, Saturday, 14 May 2022 21:07 (one year ago) link

OK Serbia has just rescued the entire contest.

Doodles Diamond (Tom D.), Saturday, 14 May 2022 21:10 (one year ago) link

What is the Serbian song about?

xyzzzz__, Saturday, 14 May 2022 21:10 (one year ago) link

I think it is literally about healthcare as per the commentary?!

gyac, Saturday, 14 May 2022 21:11 (one year ago) link

Serbia was brilliant, so glad I had the subtitles on.

Hands. Face. Space.

A healthy mind in a healthy body (Spoken backwards in Latin)

What could be the secret of Meghan Markle’s healthy hair?

What could it be?

What could be the secret of Meghan Markle’s healthy hair?

What could it be? (What could it be?)

I think it’s all about deep hydration

They say our skin and hair show it all

For example, deep undereye circles could signal liver trouble

The pesky spots around the lips point to an enlarged spleen

That’s not a good spleen, not a very pretty spleen

And the artist must be healthy

To be healthy, to be healthy

To be healthy

To-to-to-to be healthy

To be healthy, to be healthy

must be, must be, must be

How lucky the existence of the autonomic nervous system

No need to control my heartbeats

The heart beats, the heart beats, alone

A summer’s day, the colours bright, skirts of mine, on my body

My dog and I, we walk

just the two of us, counting steps

The skirt goes around my leg

We are walking and that’s all!

And it does not have to get better!

The heart beats by itself!

I surrender my trust, let it beat by itself!

I surrender my trust, let it beat! Let me breathe!

God grant us health, grant us health, grant us health!

(God grant us health)

Since there’s no medical insurance for me

Now how will they follow me?
(All in the name of health)

How will they care for me?
(All in the name of health)

The artist is invisible
(All in the name of health)

You can’t see me, it’s magical
(All in the name of health)

The artist could be healthy

To be healthy

To be healthy

To be healthy

To-to-to-to be healthy

To be healthy, to be healthy

must be, must be, must be

(A healthy mind in a healthy body)

(A healthy mind in a healthy body)

In a healthy body, in a healthy body

A healthy body

and what now?!

A sick mind in a healthy body

A sad soul in a healthy body

A desperate mind in a healthy body

A frightened mind in a healthy body

Now what shall we do?

That is genius. It MUST WIN.

Doodles Diamond (Tom D.), Saturday, 14 May 2022 21:15 (one year ago) link

People are mad about Serbia. It got the biggest cheer when she came out.

gyac, Saturday, 14 May 2022 21:16 (one year ago) link

“You can vote up to twenty times” - always uncomfortable not knowing the upper limit until now

gyac, Saturday, 14 May 2022 21:17 (one year ago) link

Thanks Gyac for the lyrics.

Moldova
Serbia
Ukraine

Honourable mentions for the French and not despising the UK entry.

You say this, but I know you’ll be giving Spain your votes

Since Maneskin actually turned up, does that mean we don't have to listen to Mika sing?

Being cheap is expensive (snoball), Saturday, 14 May 2022 21:32 (one year ago) link

Nope the interval act and last year’s winner are always separate

I hesitated over Serbia for a hot minty but then went Sweden, genuine good song. Rounding out my top 5 would be Italy, Estonia (hated it on first listen but really enjoyed it tonight), and fuck it, Ukraine I guess

The Speak Of The Mearns (Jonathan Hellion Mumble), Saturday, 14 May 2022 21:38 (one year ago) link

Actually I forgot, I'd put Lithuania 5

The Speak Of The Mearns (Jonathan Hellion Mumble), Saturday, 14 May 2022 21:40 (one year ago) link

UK genuinely horrific, I hope he gets zero, gets run out of Torino on a rail, gets maudlin and falls asleep smoking, dies in a housefire

The Speak Of The Mearns (Jonathan Hellion Mumble), Saturday, 14 May 2022 21:46 (one year ago) link

I'd agree if you were talking about Mika.

Being cheap is expensive (snoball), Saturday, 14 May 2022 21:50 (one year ago) link

Bit much to wish death on either Mika or (UK Singer who looked like a rabbit) tbh. Just some singers doing their jobs.

The German guy, fair enough.

alea iacta est, need to get james redd in here

mark s, Saturday, 14 May 2022 22:01 (one year ago) link

we got some points!!

kinder, Saturday, 14 May 2022 22:03 (one year ago) link

Didn't they used to leave the three or so top points to reveal by the presenter in each country? (ie not just the top one)

kinder, Saturday, 14 May 2022 22:06 (one year ago) link

woah!

kinder, Saturday, 14 May 2022 22:06 (one year ago) link

xp they used to but we'd be here another two hours if they did that now

Being cheap is expensive (snoball), Saturday, 14 May 2022 22:07 (one year ago) link

Yes but this is the jury voting which is 50% of points, no point getting excited this early

gyac, Saturday, 14 May 2022 22:07 (one year ago) link

UK top of the leaderboard, Ukraine getting almost nowhere, should all change when we get to the public votes though.

Portrait Of A Dissolvi Ng Drea M (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Saturday, 14 May 2022 22:09 (one year ago) link

Yeah just surprised we are not still on 0

kinder, Saturday, 14 May 2022 22:09 (one year ago) link

The bit where everything gets thrown around by the public vote is one of the best bits

kinder, Saturday, 14 May 2022 22:09 (one year ago) link

It’s incredible. Trying to remember which year some country on an unassailable lead got fucked by the public vote.

gyac, Saturday, 14 May 2022 22:10 (one year ago) link

Last year, think it was Switzerland?

Portrait Of A Dissolvi Ng Drea M (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Saturday, 14 May 2022 22:11 (one year ago) link

Well!

Mark G, Saturday, 14 May 2022 22:12 (one year ago) link

I don't get the love for Greece at all. She looks nice, I guess?

kinder, Saturday, 14 May 2022 22:13 (one year ago) link

Very happy to see Germany still on 0

Portrait Of A Dissolvi Ng Drea M (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Saturday, 14 May 2022 22:14 (one year ago) link

France getting ROBBED by the juries. Hopefully the public are kinder

gyac, Saturday, 14 May 2022 22:15 (one year ago) link

I’m definitely going to this next year if it’s in the UK, either through them winning or taking hosting duties from Ukraine
