    France FRANCE 2024 - Slimane - Mon amour

    tbh we don't have anything that could win atm. Variété française which is pop music without the pop and specially without the fun is gonna car crash hard. We tried with Alma and Amir even if both songs got some spice in the mixing/producing to be more popish. And when we try pop music it's like...

    EUROVISION 2023 - FINAL REHEARSALS AND LIVE SHOW DISCUSSION

    No offense but it does sound like conspiracy theory you're assuming Sweden is in revenge mode since Bergendahl imprisonment and I just don't see that, it's exagerrating facts to follow a narrative due to people get involved emotionally in a tv show (The lovely and likeable Käärijä from Poor...

    Sweden SWEDEN 2023 - Loreen - Tattoo

    Sweden/Scandinavia are the powerhouses of pop music, a lot of the hits we hear on an everyday basis are written by norwegians/swedes and basically, that's what they send to the ESC. That's a no brainer for me why they're performing so well with jurors even when I don't like the songs (2015...

    EUROVISION 2023 - FINAL REHEARSALS AND LIVE SHOW DISCUSSION

    I don't get what you're saying ? They composed a song, Loreen was on board, it won the selection like any other year. I don't feel like the song was more or less "try hard" than before ? I kinda felt it in 2015 where the projections were like a distraction cause the song was kinda bland and...

    EUROVISION 2023 - FINAL REHEARSALS AND LIVE SHOW DISCUSSION

    I wonder how much Sweden lost in televote points being called "huge favorite" there's always this thing where people hate to be told what they're supposed to do or think. So we say "she has a huge chance to win" so people are overly critical about the act. I felt she could have won more televote...

    EUROVISION 2023 - FINAL REHEARSALS AND LIVE SHOW DISCUSSION

    I voted for Sweden x5 Czechia x1 Croatia x1 Belgium x1 Finland x1 It was a great show, deserving winner in my opinion, 5 years till our last "real" pop winner and 5 years since our last female winner. I also feel like it's the first time my actual top 2 ended first and second. Very happy with...

    Spain SPAIN 2023 - Blanca Paloma - Eaea

    This was my last place this year. I didn't bother sharing it cause I prefer to focus on what I like more than what I dislike and I felt like I was just not getting it like I didn't fully get Space Man or Arcade. But 5pts is really harsh.. I can't imagine the disappointment in the spanish fandom

    France FRANCE 2023 - La Zarra - Évidemment

    I mean it's the same problem in a lot of countries : Those that are big names won't even bother participating cause the contest is seen as dated with bad music and political issues but there's always those artists that aren't that big but not totally unknown either (La Zarra is a good example)...

    France FRANCE 2023 - La Zarra - Évidemment

    This is not my genre I don't know it that well, but I feel like we could get a Stefania with the rap artists that are more on the "musical side" than the "heavy lyrics spitting side"

    France FRANCE 2023 - La Zarra - Évidemment

    tbh I can't stand Voilà, I thought that Evidemment was top 10 worthy at best, I feel like we're sending "good entries" but none of them are great (voilà included, that's why I'm happy Italy won) and I can't with the frenchy french cliché, it's like France in a movie. It's not representative of...

    France FRANCE 2023 - La Zarra - Évidemment

    I did my research and she made the "Toz" sign (i'm too old to know what it's all about) : a word which apparently comes from Arabic and could be translated by "Whatever" "Doesn't Matter" or can be used instead of a "No" (example : Can You Come tonight ? * Toz Sign * ) I won't say it's better...

    Germany GERMANY 2023 - Lord of the Lost - Blood and Glitter

    Honestly, it's not about them being the worst or even bad to have points you have to reach the top 10 of each country right ? Germany was a hard candidate for a jury top 10 and for televoters they basically vote for their one or maybe two favorites entries. I'm sure at 100% that a lot of people...

    France FRANCE 2023 - La Zarra - Évidemment

    What a flop (deserved for the song but the staging deserved at least 10th place)

    Luxembourg LUXEMBOURG 2023 - not taking part

    Lux is more french speaking than anything, so very close to Belgium the RTBF years and maybe France. If Monaco comes back, I feel like France will be more than happy.
