Latvia plays. You can use the toilet.
by obi

Shouldn’t that be the better semi-final? 🤔

by zaepfli
I want the hand washer lady back. 🙁
Thanks for the 5/8 times, Latvia…
by obi
We’ve all been waiting for this.
fear.

Serbia is like Iceland (Hatari) on idle gas…
9:22 PM:
from Mr. Jones
I thought that was awesome or shit??
No idea.
by obi
No. Paleness. Idea.
No, really now: I don’t know what’s going on here. All I know is that this is another one of those Eurovision Song Contest-only shows. I love it
21:21 The Serbian Sleeping Beauty…
by Simone M.
… sings about the most important human escapism next to love, sleep. The audience goes wild: sleeping is SO great!
Warning: NERD fact
by obi
The song of Serbia is based on a Phrygian scale.
cool right?
cool right?

In Malta I feel like they are copying at least 10 different performances from the past years😅
by obi
Well, my 14-year-old daughter assures me that grandfather sweaters are totally trendy. There is no other way to explain this train derailment from a performance.
The Maltese glitter sweater…
by Simone M.
… is EVEN better!
Another nice line of text:
by obi
“If you’re interested / I’ve got some indoor shoes I can offer you / get you in the groove”
NOW NEVER
Where is this sweater??? ask for…
by Simone M.
… my little brother, my neighbor’s boyfriend etc.
“I feel better in my jersey.”
by obi
That’s a song line. No really now. Someone wrote that. NOW NEVER.

Oh man. My wine glass just burst… 😀
9:14 PM
by Simone M.
It opens with Alessandra from Norway. This is a mixture of Gregorian chants and “Game of Thrones” in a corset. Alas, terrible conquest fantasies of a wannabe queen with a scream set.
It’s probably the whitest song I’ve ever heard.
by obi
A Disney child who has gone dark
by obi
Or something like that drives a woman Norway.
I’ve always been in love with Alesha.
by obi
I mean come on
21:11 It has begun
by Simone M.
A boy from Liverpool and a girl from Ukraine do mirror theatre. After all, Ukraine won the ESC last year, but of course the ESC cannot take place in Kiev this year. Then: fire! And Ukrainian rocker Julia Sanina. And Hannah Waddingham, known for “Sex Education” and “Ted Lasso”. And Alesha Dixon, known for… the pop scene. On the photo from the left: Bonbon Dixon, Julia Latex and Hannah de Rainbow.
Mais Thank you, Hannah…
by obi
… perfect French, she speaks, Mrs. Hannah Waddingham (yes, you know her from “Sex Education” and “Ted Lasso”, yes, yes.)
…
9:08 PM:
from T-6430-83
Did the lady steal her dress from Catwoman…?
Oh hello Alesha.
by obi
Looking good ma’am.
Liverpool…
by obi
… half a million people all with a speech impediment. OH shut up, Oliver.
No, actually Scouse is quite beautiful.
No, actually Scouse is quite beautiful.
9:03 PM What all this has to do with underpants
by Simone M.
So today and the day after tomorrow and on Saturday the ESC circus is at the M&S Bank Arena in Liverpool. Liverpool is the city where the Beatles come from. M&S Bank is the bank of Marks & Spencer. This is the supermarket chain where the sadly deceased Swiss actress Stefanie Glaser used to buy her underwear in multipacks. In the photo: The Beatles, of course.
Hurrah! The theme song of the Eurovision Song Contest…
by obi
… with which the best song of the evening would have ended …
BREAKING NEWS
by obi
Madeleine is there too.
And she’s like, “Fucking outfit, Remo.”
LOL

Hello to all freaks! 😉
I never, EVER listen to a post, but just when I realized that the only song that keeps playing on our local radio (and I like it) is THAT…
YESAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
I’m happy!
Have fun!!!!

20:45 Our ESC boy band
by Simone M.
Okay, so Remo Forrer looks like a cross between Swiss ESC 2022 entrant Marius Bear and Swiss ESC 2021 entrant Gjon’s Tears. In the photo (from top to bottom): Remo, Marius, Gion.
20:41 Questions from the ESC
by Simone M.
What is the absolute top favorite Loreen from Sweden doing now? Something about her nails?
Before we start, a word about *good music*…
by obi
Slightly off topic, I know, but hey: it’s nice that a high-ranking politician 1) supports independent record stores and 2) has excellent taste in music. Go Kamala!
Everybody Loves the Sunshine by Roy Ayers is one of my favorite albums of all time. I was thrilled to stop by HR Records and grab a copy.

8:38 pm A wonder man named Remo
by Simone M.
Everyone interviewed by SRF, including Luca Hänni’s current girlfriend, thinks it’s crazy that Remo looks 12 (he’s 21!), but has a voice of at least 35.
Swiss Sad Boi Ballad for the Third…
by obi
…will that be ok?
Okay, let’s do this.
by obi
So. We watched the SRF documentary on Remo Forrer for what feels like 5 hours. Uff. He’s just nice. And fun. And friendly. And sympa. And I’m sick.
20:27 says Conchita
by Simone M.
Conchita Wurst says she has goosebumps from “Watergun”, it’s pure, pleasantly overwhelming, an unparalleled performance, European champion, just European champion. No, she says nothing about that. Except the goosebumps. Ah Conchita! You sublime of all ESC winners.
8:21 PM It’s Boytime 2
by Simone M.
Remo Forrer. So today we are all called Remo. A little. Or rather not a little? A sports editor at our office asks, “Does he have a chance?” A typical question from a sports editor. A visitor who has just been snowed in says, “No.” Remo says “Music is life.” He has a brand new tattoo. It’s called “Watergun” like his song tonight. Will he ever regret the tattoo? Loreen’s favorite song is called “Tattoo”. Chance?
20:08 It’s boy time!
by Simone M.
Yo! Welcome, welcome, bonsoir etc dear ones. Do any of you remember Ronan Keating aka one of the cream pies, as they called it back then, from the boy band Boyzone? He currently hosts The Countdown on BBC One. Here’s an old photo of Boyzone, Ronan is the yellow and black camisole.
