Mordecai Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 First and foremost that there is this UGLY ass man who has one of those faces that's irritating to look at that's been part of the Israeli delegation for a few years and I saw him again during the semi final. If we're gonna be subject to Israel during the show tomorrow PLEASE for the love of god somebody put a bag over his head 12 hours ago, Fevesy said: i have no words Is this real?

Didn't perform at the Jury show however the juries will grade his Semi Final 2 performance. Swedish reporters found him at the hotel but he ignored all their questions (and then smiled and waved as the elevator closed) The ROTW vote is delayed, the timer starts in 15 minutes or so but it might get extended since there is still no decision on Netherlands participation. The EBU is still investigating, but no concrete story as to what exactly happened, just that it doesn't involve the Israeli delegation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that guilt on a spectrum? Maybe everyone still watching the show and everyone in this post were assigned guilt from you? If people already are seperating music from politics during Eurovision, I am pretty sure there is nothing to assuage there Edited May 10 by aadrl1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I obviously can't take what majority opinion you claimed as the objective reflection of the reality. The public vote tomorrow will even hold more wieght than your assumption here. You can push your definition of politics here; right wingers claims "everything is Political Correct" as well. Your debate about what is considered political is what's in your mind. It is not the internal monologue in many people's mind when they (do) vote (solely) based on their preference of songs and performance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh fifth with a ballad is quite an achievement, and I heard that there was like 3 squeaks?

Benjamin Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 I didn't realise it was Eurovision week and I booked a trip and missed the live Semis. Only just caught up. I assume we're all stanning Ireland this year? I will reject any opinions to the contrary thank you. (Though maybe I'm bias because my trip this week was to Ireland) Nothing else is really doing it for me this year at all. I wouldn't be too mad if Switzerland wins I suppose, then there's one or two others like Croatia and Luxembourg in tier 3 as a "Eh, fine I suppose" level. Ireland is the only one I'll be playing past tomorrow at this point though. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
