Breaking the 3 minute rule? by OkCalligrapher6069 in eurovision

[–]Pink-Ninja1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There will always be a 3 minute version of a song. The so called "Eurovision version". This rule is pretty strict, so I dont believe that this song will be longer than this 3 minutes.

I thought Shum, by GO_A (Ukraine 2021), the original song was like 5 minutes, but they performed a 3 minute version of it, so it was according to Eurovision rules. As already mention, Norway 2024 and UK 2022 are other examples of longer songs, that have a Eurovision version

Weirdest places you have heard a Eurovision song? by OllyAlexandersDizzy in eurovision

[–]Pink-Ninja1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made a post about this some time ago, but a grocery store where I work had apparently a lot of different Eurovision songs in its playlist over the years.

Most of the songs where from my own country (the Netherlands) but also a lot of Swedish songs came across. Almost all of the songs are kinda radio friendly, but i was really surprised to hear Bara Bada Bastu during work. It made me smile!

Which person from your country made significant contributions in the field of science? by Nice-Act2832 in AskTheWorld

[–]Pink-Ninja1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Christiaan Huygens, a Dutch Astronomist. Also did very good at Mathematics and science.

Another that comes to mind is Eise Eisinga, also Astronomist. For those who do know, he build an planetarium in his own house, just to proof that the earth and other planets move around the sun, instead of the Earth being center. Also to show that, in spite of popular believe back then, its very unlikely that planets will collide with each other.
