Eurovision Song Contest 2019 |OT| The place where joiking, dead drops, dentists and bondage come together.
- Thread starter Red Arremer
- Start date
Last two songs were the ones I wanted the most for the final. Super reliefed right now. Can't believe San Marino did it!
Portugal wasn't particularly good guys. I wanted him in because I liked his outfit and dance, but not because of the song.
Well, song is really good even. The instrumental is really good especially.
And how is it worse than fucking San Marino?
His performance was pretty weak this time around (the national finals were quite a lot better in almost all regards), but honestly given the amount of utter trash it still should have made it through, same as with Poland.

Remember that the semis have a lot less people voting in them so the fans have more sway in them, and in the Eurovision bubble, San Marino and Estonia are fan favourites, so it's no big surprise they snuck through.
Shame about Poland and Portugal, but I understand that both of them are more divisive (Portugal is extremely avantgarde and people either hate or love it, and for Poland I saw a lot of 'screechy' comments).
Overall though, I'm fairly content with the results, most of the songs I would have put through made it.

Now, to be fair at no point did Portugal urge me to say Na Na Na
Big mistake, imho
I for one was extremely grateful to see a bland pop song after the previous act lol

Should enter Ghost for Sweden. Watch evil pope crush them all.
yeah I know Tobias is playing a new character called Cardinal Copia other than the Papa Emeritus evil pope character or any of the other evil popes he "passed the position" onto in his stage acts. We all know the face paint will return though and his current stage character's story will eventually go from Cardinal to the next Papa skull painted evil pope.

That was a pretty shit semifinal to be honest, but I wouldn't really complain about any of the countries that got through (except San Marino, WTF Europe?). Also props to Iceland for helping us Americans out.
Exactly. WHen even Hammerfall of all bands have said they would never ever do ESC, I doubt the creator of Repugnant and member of Onkel Kånkel would do it....

I'm not exactly sure why people are still calling Eurovision to be absolutely terrible. I mean of course it's going to be pop music, that's what sells the most and appeals to most people. And even if it's not a pop genre but something else, such as metal or Hatari's industrial stuff, it has to be leaning more towards pop, and be palatable for both the juries and the voting viewers.
Finland tried a much harder song with Terasbetöni a few years after Lordi won, and they barely made it out of the semi final and finished in bottom 3 or so.
