Eurovision 2018
-
Today is Eurovision 2018 final.
Will you watch it ?
I think I will just watch it on replay, some parts of it because it's too boring. Although our commentators are funny and make lots of jokes sometimes a bit racist but well..
This year The broadcast feed for China is canceled as they censor the Irish dancers ( representing a gay couple) and they also censor gay flags and tattoos. source : http://www.bbc.com/news/world-44082543 ; https://www.theverge.com/2018/5/11/17345754/eurovision-china-lgbtq-mango-tv-censorshipI wont support my country like more than 60 % of people here because the song is made by leftist about some migrant . I expect a very very low score for us ( France) but the good thing is it's not in english so eastern countries wont understand this is propaganda for more immigration in Europe…
Im basically watching parts of Eurovision just to check out twinks
what about you? -
This maybe should go in the politics section since Eurovision is extremely political in the way countries vote.
-
Maldova had a really weird and quirky song which gets better on the replay. More conventional music lovers will appreciate Cyprus, however.
-
the swedish guy " benjamin ingrosso" was so hot.

My impression is that it's always pop music ie, not the slightest interest for me.
-
I disagree it's mostly pop but not only. lyric music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImawXdXIGd8, rock or whatever : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lR8x85ZFu44 : , soft rock https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0kP074Mw0k

When they have a competition with Norwegian Black Metal, Finnish Symphonic Metal, a Polish Polka, Rai from France, Israeli Mizrachiyya, German opera, and Italian Opera I'll give it a look. I know the two Israeli winning songs since friends insist I listen to them.
-
Rai from France,
eww I think I'll kill myself if Rai represents my country
-
I watched it, imo the most meaningful song won.

I was in Love with FUEGO #elenifoureira :cheers:

Eurovision is nothing more than a political event that falsely uses music as it's "justification".
Clearly, this year's Eurovision was all about identity politic over geo-politcal events. Vaginalism was the priority over Europe's hatred of Israel (aka pro muslim/Palestine) sentiments.
The UK does poorly in Eurovision because of it's close ties with the US. Who is the US President at the time does play into it, but only a bit. The same with who the Prime Minister of the UK is.

Only just got around to watching this year's show, the best song definitely won!
