There are dozens of us! Dozens!

But seriously, it’s the gay musical Olympics, what’s not to love? (Unless you’re from Germany/UK in which it’s a point of national pride to dismiss Eurovision, lol?)

Only because Germany/UK is dismissed by Eurovision. Sam Ryder was robbed 2022

And no way did Lord of the Lost deserve last place 2023. UK might have.

LOTL was truly robbed last year, they were one of my faves.

An incredible technical performance! So well choreographed and played beautifully. I 100% agree.

No, Germany loves to watch Eurovision, we don’t care, that our own country sucks all the time. By now it’s more of a meme and people are betting, how bad it’s gonna be this year.

I, for one, think that given the recent history and the farce that was the Electric Callboy situation we should from now on send metal acts with steadily increasing levels of heavyness until Europe capitulates.

(The “Electric Callboy situation” was the NDR judging that this song was “not suited for radio play”. It’s one of the most eurovision things ever produced. German radio stations commented the situation by playing it on heavy rotation)

Oh yeah that whole thing was so absurd. Like…it’s so radio friendly, I don’t get it?!? And God they are so good too!! Saw them live last year, one of the most energetic shows I’ve ever seen, period! Germany has so much great music.

Glad to hear y’all are having fun with it! Truly, last year’s results surprised me and made me think Germany might actually be cursed…

Agreed. That song was great! It absolutely deserved to come in the top 15 or so. https://youtu.be/5I9CYu668jA

I’m British and we’re obsessed with Eurovision, we also enjoy losing.
