I hate the fact that girl from Israel is actually talented and it's a cute pop song :dies:

This would be fighting for the win if it was Sweden :skull:

Y'all gotta be real for a single second :ahh: In what world would this X Factor 2011 reject EVER compete for the win? If nothing, the song being so politicized helped it being noticed, otherwise no one would bat an eye

Hurricane has a nice, memorable melody but literally that's it. :rip: In a drama-free year it would barely scrape the 9th or 10th place in the semifinal, everything about it screams Eurovision 2013 ballad sent by Hungary or Serbia. Not even the staging is anything new.

I'm still confused as to why every contestant seems angry/sad about the whole event? 

 

Is it the fact that their event is being overshadowed by scandals? Are they mad israel is competing? Is the organisation lacking? What is it? I've seen reports about Joost being frustrated for days about the organisation and lack of morals, but that could also be damage control

You answered it yourself.

Since the show began, we talk more about Israel being there than the show itself. You can bet it feels like that for all participants, which must be super annoying and tiring. The press obviously also only cares about that since its a topic that results in revenue.

Her vocals are tragic and the song ain't that catchy. I notice some similarities though

Eurovision is supposed to be a highlight in many participants' music careers. At the same time, some contestants from UK, France and other bigger countries don't need to worry about their careers failing if they flop in Eurovision, for smaller countries it's a time to give all they got to the rest of the world.

 

This year should've been the happiest time of their lives; instead, they have been forced to be involved in a tense and brutal political discourse because the EBU has refused to take the right action and has left the contestants to deal with the blowback because of their 'apolitical' stance. All the media attention about Eurovision this year has been focused on one country, some of the Pro-Palestinian contestants have been harassed in the press and being painted as 'bullies' (see Marina and Bambie), and now there's this huge voting mobilisation in soul hopes of getting that one country to win which is for mostly political reasons. I have barely seen any interactions between acts like we saw in 2022 and 2023, to put it simply, they're been robbed of a normal Eurovision experience and this edition will be seen as a bleak moment in ESC History.

 

They all look like they just want to get it over with and leave, and can we blame them :rip:

A Dutch journalist who is in Malmö right now claims that he has heard a rumour about several delegations refusing to perform tonight... sounds unlikely to me but we will see

So if mr. Europapa stays in its gonna do better in the televote than Croatia while doing worse with the jury... maybe he should stay out just in case there's any chance...

I think y'all shouldn't worry too much about the Israel televote - even if they finish top 3, jury till put it at 3-5th place AT MOST and this is really the best case scenario for them IMO. But let's see, hope I'm wrong.

I'm all from removing Israel and Australia altogether anyway, it's Eurovision after all :coffee:
