I either need to start watching or turn off the for a while. The current situation is not working for me.

:blobcatPats:

DuncanMSussex,

@stpaultim start watching Eurovision. Embrace it.

DuncanMSussex, to random

Alright, time. Deliberately kept myself a bit out of the loop this time, but I gather we'll be figuring out who this Edgar guy is.

DuncanMSussex,

Nice sinister folk stuff here. May and it's grand magus spare us when he ascends to godhood.

DuncanMSussex,

Cool staging by . I actually like this more than Kalush. Pretty epic, slows down too much in the verses but goes hard when it wants to.

DuncanMSussex,

Ooh, a mock opera with a beat from #Norway. No idea if I like it or not, but nice to see it again.

DuncanMSussex,

After Nightwish 2.0 we have some actual power metal. #Germany and not quite a death growl but second harsh vocal of the night. I kind of love this.

DuncanMSussex,

#Lithuania has an entry. I regret saying #Switzerland is 5/10 because that means I need to say this one is technically above average.

#Eurovision #Eurovision2023 #ESC

DuncanMSussex,

Fuck it. is 4/10 so can get 4.5.

Briefly.

DuncanMSussex,

has a very understated intro. Very Eurovision - actually not too mad on this but it should do well. She can dance though, fair play. Turns out I did want to see her dance.

DuncanMSussex,

#Slovenia nice to hear a non-English song and something that's rock but not creeping into metal. Pretty fun once the guitar kicked in, very tongue in cheek. The guitar line is really holding it together though.

DuncanMSussex,

I think I might actually have heard of Let 3 before. Think they're a band I meant to check out but never did. Guess now is the time! #Croatia

DuncanMSussex,

Even if this one gets nul points it'll be remembered. Another one in the proud tradition of wtf. #Croatia

Fair enough, catchy Eurovision song. Not my fave, not a winner but at least pitched right. Has the finally learned to stop putting out boring entries? Actually been doing decently in recent years.

DuncanMSussex,

Okay, really strong year this time. As usual I expect some good stuff to do terribly, but there's hopefully not enough crap this year for anything bad to do well. Unless all you wrong-uns on the #Eurovision tag who like #Switerland's entry are representative. 😉

#Eurovision2023 #ESC

DuncanMSussex,

Okay, I can't rank this year. I really do Eurovision for the madness and there's too much good crazy stuff and conventionally good stuff. I'm supporting about seven countries at this point and it's getting a bit apples and oranges here.

DuncanMSussex,

Great to see the displaced Ukrainians - given how the UK can be at its worst I'm glad the organisers remembered who we're running this for.

DuncanMSussex,

Loving Netta's wings.

#Eurovision #Eurovision2023 #ESC

DuncanMSussex,

Yay! We all love Dadi Freyr! Seen him live and all.

#Eurovision #Eurovision2023 #ESC

DuncanMSussex,

You know, for a long time I thought the Beeb didn't get Eurovision. I guess they learned, this is a great show.

My namesake from The Netherlands up next.

DuncanMSussex,

Duncan wants you to know You'll Never Walk Again.

DuncanMSussex,

And much as I wanted Brighton to host (not possible given we don't have a big enough venue, sadly) they've done a lot with this Liverpool link.

#Eurovision #Eurovision2023 #ESC

DuncanMSussex,

So is there a rest of the world vote too?

DuncanMSussex,
DuncanMSussex,

Hey UK won't get nul points this year. Don't think we deserve to win but seems fair.
