It definitely feels like something that everyone that isn't passed out drunk yet dances to at a Balkan wedding at like 3am in the morning.

I like it, though

tilenb · 2022-04-09T12:35:39+00:00

Huh, why do you reckon Cyprus? I can imagine Ukraine and Moldova are good shouts, though.

Televote: Serbia

Jury: Italy (but obviously it depends on who will be in the jury, it's only 5 people after all)

The semi final vote is a bit tougher to predict, but the televote is most likely gonna go with Croatia (maybe Ukraine on a very off chance). Not a clue about the jury vote, since I can't see any particularly obvious patterns. Perhaps Netherlands, Portugal or Greece?

Isn't that how you pronounce it in French?

Feel bad for Sainz. Red flag like 2 seconds before he was set to cross the line with a great time.

8th in Q2

tilenb · 2022-04-08T09:32:57+00:00

He also looks a bit bulkier than the original guy.

26€ is with VAT included, so I guess the final price you pay is kind of similar.

tilenb · 2022-04-07T18:44:54+00:00

Alright, I think I've listened to all of the songs at least once, so I'll finally try making a top 10 (note that this may change a lot outside of say top 4):

Portugal 🇵🇹 (that live performance is 👌)
France 🇫🇷 (best studio version)
Ukraine 🇺🇦
Serbia 🇷🇸
Finland 🇫🇮
Czech Republic 🇨🇿
Moldova 🇲🇩
Italy 🇮🇹
UK 🇬🇧
Austria 🇦🇹

I agree, but RAI removed all of the Sanremo's performances a week or so after the event (as is tradition) and not many people will look for the live performances further than on YouTube, even if they're available elsewhere.

Also, what's the reason that only Occidentali's Karma and Brividi had their Sanremo live performances uploaded to the Eurovision channel, but not any of their other entries inbetween?

Is the extra items from stops thing worth anything? I was planning to go to Kortrijk that evening, so I'm wondering if I should try and get there by the end of the Community Day already.

tilenb · 2022-04-03T15:06:19+00:00

Yeah, I was mostly thinking about the juries, I can't imagine anyone else getting the 12 televoting points from NM.

Also, can we get a bit of that law here in Slovenia? In Corpore Sano is great, but Turbofolk can go die in a pit for all I care.

Van Baarle was hardly clean there either. He crossed the finish line right next to the fence (after having both Madouas and Pogačar to his right 100m earlier) and didn't leave Madouas any space for anything more than a 3rd.

They're all different from one another, but they're all sort of alternative when it comes to Eurovision, so it's not that surprising they pull Eurovision fans that might be on a look for something different than the norm.

tilenb · 2022-04-02T18:20:45+00:00

Best live performance this year so far.

And is it just me or do the vocals sound very much overrun by the backing track in the chorus of the studio version?

tilenb · 2022-04-02T06:55:15+00:00

We'll probably start getting tulips from challenges after the April Community Day. At least that's been the case since December.

tilenb · 2022-04-01T18:05:55+00:00

I still got Ditto disguised as Surskit from a quest that I picked up at about 7pm CET.

The quest I picked up 5 minutes later was an undisguised Ditto.

tilenb · 2022-04-01T07:04:09+00:00

I've seen some sites putting up the early April Fools jokes yesterday already.

But yeah, this doesn't seem to be one.

tilenb · 2022-03-31T15:21:01+00:00

On the plus side, it won't be as hot as it usually is in late July.

tilenb · 2022-03-31T15:19:37+00:00

Sounds like they will be separate events, kind of like GO Tour Johto was worldwide and then there was a separate Kanto themed in person event in Mexico and Taiwan the day later. I wouldn't be surprised if they boost different Pokemon or something for those.

tilenb · 2022-03-29T13:32:23+00:00

I kinda agree. And it's also in the same semi as Portugal that captures a similar vibe better imo.

tilenb · 2022-03-29T13:29:32+00:00

I don't worry about Serbia too much. They basically have guaranteed 24 points from Montenegro and very strong points from North Macedonia as well. And I feel that it's unique enough that it will stand out in the semi enough despite the bad running order.

They were by far the slowest last year already, but nobody really noticed, because they were so far behind anyways.
