Netta I ripped to bits but actually enjoyed seeing her in Gran Canaria last year Netta sounds like she's a good laugh. Clearly the online vote means nothing but I've put my full support behind Verka. What a legend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should have done a zoom/recorded videos Eurovision competition. They aren’t far off it as it is, why not show the whole song and not just a clip and then vote on it as usual?

The Naitch Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 (edited) First I've heard the Iceland entry for this year. Lots of Alphabeat vibes so gets top marks in my books. Edited May 16, 2020 by The Naitch 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sooky Posted May 17, 2020 Author Share Posted May 17, 2020 Real shame it was cancelled as it was actually a very high quality year, quite a lot of good songs!Anyway, in my opinion, Italy still shit over the rest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Enjoyed the Greatest Hits show beforehand but the programme where they showed this year's entrants was terrible. You can't get any idea of how good or bad a song is in thirty seconds. They could have cut out all the tedious "we will get through this together" shite and just shown all 41 songs properly. I wanted a bit of escapism from Coronavirus, not two hours of being bludgeoned over the head with it. Very disappointing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The BBC don’t have a great history of taking Eurovision seriously, so was very strange to see them actually having a better show than the one the EBU put on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shahid khan Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Anyone seen the Eurovision movie on Netflix? Watched it last night and I have to say it was tremendous. I'm a huge Eurovision fan and if you ignore slight inaccuracies like the semi final voting system for example, it's really enjoyable. A few good Cameos included also. Good way to pass a few hours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a bit all over the place, which can expect from a Will Ferrell comedy. If you want to talk about slight inaccuracies, it has to take place in an independent Scotland to make sense 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Not necessarily, it could be taking place in the UK because the previous year's winners are unable to host it for some reason. I think this is why UK hosted when ABBA won it, for instance. I enjoyed the film. It could have been a straight up piss take out of the competition but, instead, seemed more like a celebration of Eurovision, for all its good and bad points. Would definitely recommend it to any Eurovision fans on here. I'm not sure those who don't like the show would enjoy it so much, though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
