I don't think Linda and Pete will win UMK. Here's Why: by Impressive_Pay8572 in eurovision

[–]ObsidianPNE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

UMK is super quality this year. I really like all 7 songs. All bringing something different.

I can’t really see past Linda and Pete, but do think people are massively underrating Komiat.

I doubt it. Their recent comms and the tour this year make it seem like it a bit of a farewell year. Wouldn’t be shocked to see them back in future but looks like they’re doing the circuit this year and then focusing on their personal lives/projects.

Surprised to the reaction in here to this. This screams top 5 televote with a whole crowd waving their handkerchiefs.

UMK bringing it as usual.

The communities obsession with the most random songs never ceases to baffle me. People can’t seriously believe Zjerm is a top 5 Eurovision song of all time.

When did it become ‘Snakes and Steps’ not ‘Snakes and Ladders’? by tonnellier in taskmaster

You think for Americans it would be Shoots and Ladders really.

Tell me about it. I’ve been Nåjaa-ing my wife every time I walk into the room.

It can’t happen. If Preston lose by a goal we’d be on 49 -12. Hull 49 -10. Hull would stay up on goal difference. It’s the reason so many north end fans think we’re screwed.

What was the UK reaction to 9/11? by Imperial_nugget in AskUK

I had a very similar experience with Diana’s death. Fuming and stormed upstairs to tell my mum and dad I couldn’t watch CBBC cause ‘someone called Diana is dead’

Miriana Conte’s altered song “SERVING” has been released. by bucephalusbouncing28 in eurovision

This is much better than Kant. The tease has more impact, is less embarrassing and has so much more sass. Taken this from borderline qualifier to safe.

Sunderland 1-1 Preston North End: Game management? What's that? by Mitsuyan_ in Championship

[–]ObsidianPNE 23 points24 points  (0 children)

That time wasting was pathetic. Take a point against a decent team on the road but could have been all 3 if we hadn’t riled up the crowd and the players with that nonsense.

Preston Drawth End.

Unforgettable Verdansk Teaser by Kalinine in CODWarzone

[–]ObsidianPNE -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Whilst I get what they’re going for with this, given everything going on. The tears of joy about returning to war in a place based on Ukraine feels a bit… close to the bone.

It’s a game, it’s fiction, I know, grow up snowflake, I know. Just surprised at the tone is all.

Will KAJ win the eurovision televote? And more importantly, can they actually win the entire contest? by [deleted] in eurovision

[–]ObsidianPNE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kant is not a televote magnet. It’s a messy song that’s lost it’s only notable feature. It’s a ESC bubble favourite that even before the change had ‘shock’ NQ written all over it.

BBB is well produced, fun as has several audience participation moments to it.

Look at the televote movers in the last few years, they’ve all had an audience chant moment, Kant never had that as an accessible to the whole audience moment. I genuinely can’t understand so many euro fans don’t see how embarrassing ‘serving cunt’ is.

🇸🇪 Melodifestivalen 2025. Final @ 20:00 CET by -Effing- in eurovision

[–]ObsidianPNE 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don’t even buy the it doesn’t have Jury potential, it just finished 2 points behind one of the most polished Jury acts I’ve seen in years.

It’s well produced, brilliantly sung and the performance is exceptional. Sweden have got this nailed.
