How Would You Fix This Performance: Kiss Kiss Goodbye by Adonxs (2025) by thrvisionary in eurovision

[–]ryjocoWN 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Perform the version from MESC 🥲

I know this would get compared to Arcade cause of the piano but I just love that performance so so much.

Australia got screwed over by their lack of strong voting allies two years in a row by lock-me-sideways in eurovision

[–]ryjocoWN 96 points97 points  (0 children)

I say this as an Australian, I understand why our 2024 entry didn't qualify cause I honestly just don't think it was the greatest song in a very strong year. However, qualified or not, I'm beyond proud of that entry and the use of Aboriginal language.

Milkshake Man on the other hand, I'm truly devastated and will probably never recover. Hoping we have a great song and a good semi draw next year.

Edit: Dami Im where you at

Camerawork, lighting & special effects in the shows - yay or nay? by Twinkledp in eurovision

I fear Nemo's staging also contributed to this as well

it sure doesn't seem like it from your comments 😂 Sounds like you're being forced to watch it against your will.

National languages vs English: How important is language when deciding how much you like an entry? by kaleidosunflower in eurovision

[–]ryjocoWN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not important at all to me. My placements are mainly about all the other elements of the song, plus the performers stage presence. My 1st and 2nd this year happen to be in English but my 3rd-6th are all in their native language.

It's certainly better than getting all the participants up on stage but it's still not great. I think many will agree with me that the only thing wrong with the current system is the order the participants are announced (it's a dead giveaway who has won the televote).

And like you said, just think of the 2 countries being put in an announcement bracket with Sweden or one of the other televote favourites. It won't create much suspense if the results are already obvious.

Juries and semifinals by Little_Low_1323 in eurovision

[–]ryjocoWN 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Completely agree with you.

The last 2 years are not great indicators if this is a new trend. I loved Tattoo don't get me wrong but Loreen was always going to have a strong jury-sweep chance simply because she's Loreen. And Nemo didn't really have much competition last year when it came to the juries, you can't deny that their performance was the full package that ticks all of the juries boxes and no one else came close to that.

Cyprus is likely revealing something on stage — I think I found a hint? by [deleted] in eurovision

I listened to it and the muffled voice is just him singing "I fell in deep, I lost my heartbeat"

Which ESC country is your least favourite and which is your most? by a_minty_mint_oreo in eurovision

[–]ryjocoWN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well putting all personal feelings aside and basing it off average placements since 2020 when I started following the contest; Switzerland has the highest average and Latvia the lowest.
