Watching the dress rehearsal rn and Nina changed one note in the final chorus it's high af and left me SHOOK plus she added some whisper notes at the end woo motha the talent
I want to say to my fellow Europeans, Happy Europe Day
Now Beethoven's Ode to Joy is fitting but since we will be hearing that a few times this week lemme link you another ode to Europe from Italy, Eurovision winner 1990.
I bet they're trying to make the contest popular in the states so they can invite them in a few years
I would love for the US to start participating in Eurovision but I don't think they need to lump them in the same contest. At that point it needs to be completely worldwide, have the from Eurovision that year compete with the best from Asia, Africa, the Americas, Australia, ect. Make it a truly global event but not override Eurovision.
I'm cool with them inviting international acts to perform in the interval, and I've accepted Australia now but I really don't want them to go further than that.
...and this is why Sweden should never get to host the contest again. STOP DOING STUPID THINGS TO "MAKE IT MORE ENTERTAINING." We watch the hot mess because it's already entertaining.
Anyways, still can't decide if it's Estonia or Czechia getting in. Other 9 slots I'm fairly certain of (Armenia, Russia, Netherlands, Greece, Cyprus, Hungary, Iceland, Azerbaioffkey and I guess Malta)
Is that the first American to perform at eurovision
No, the lead singer of Katrina and The Waves (a band known for their hit "Walking on Sunshine") is from Topeka, Kansas, they represented the UK back in 1997 and they won the contest with this song.
Slay. I'm here for a Worldvision Song Contest tbh. That could bring us as a world a bit together.
