bob Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 I don’t think any Nation that is committing ongoing war-crimes should host it.Agreed. And for this reason, I won't be performing this year. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grazza Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Not sure what I think of the songs this year. Czech Republic stood out for me in Semi Final 1 and, like previous years, I thought Semi Final 2 was a lot better and therefore more unjust. A lot of decent acts didn't get through again. I don't love any so far, but Denmark and Norway stood out. Got a feeling Australia will win and the UK will have to host it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had the Norway song stuck in my head for ages haha! I also liked the Netherlands and Sweden, and the Malta one grew on me after a while. And @Fierce_LiNk loved the San Marino song haha. As for Australia, I loved the staging/act, but the song didn't do too much for me I think. Sad that Belgium didn't get through but then again the song was very weak, oh well. We'll be watching it tomorrow with a take away and some alcohol. Can't wait for the commentary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sofiz Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 I'd love to watch it with commentary, but I don't pay the TV license, so it's plain old live-streaming for me... Excited for the high energy songs, not so excited for all the pro-Israel propaganda however... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markderoos Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 (edited) After losing the semi finals against Spurs and missing out on the CL final by only a few seconds this feels like a nice kiss and make up from Europe. Thank you fellow Europeans! Edited May 18, 2019 by markderoos 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
