2022 Eurovision - Ciao Torino!

[allezfred]

If Ukraine win Eurovision who will have to host it next year?

The city of Stockholm has offered apparently.

I think it will be up to the EBU ultimately, but there will be no shortage of host broadcasters offering.

As a mother, as a woman and as a worker whose taxes were used to pay for it, I thoroughly despise the spanish selection.

I have an annoying call this afternoon at the exact wrong time, but since Peacock is broadcasting, I hope to be able to watch it later tonight.

For the first time of many years, I may not watch. I am in Tuscanny for a short retreat, with no tv and the net only via my phone. But I wish for a great showvto everyone!

Spain is going to do VERY well across Europe. Couldn't believe it when I saw this got only 4% of the televote in the national final. It's one of my favourites this year and that usually isn't the case with the songs Spain usually sends.....

 

[vagalume]

The lyrics kill it for me. They are demeaning for women. It´s the first time in ever that my daughter and I won't root for the spanish selection not matter how corny it was.

I'm going to watch it for the first time ever. Because it's on Peacock! (Assuming you can watch the replay, ofc.)

Wheee Eurovisión, Wheee Italia and Wheee FSU!

Alyosha (Ukraine, Eurovision 2010) has a piece in the Guardian

Ukrainians can feel Europe losing interest – Eurovision is our chance to rally support | Olena Topolia

When I competed in 2010, I could not have imagined I’d be forced to flee a Russian invasion with my young children, says the Ukrainian performer Olena Topolia, aka Aloysha

So am putting in my sushi order for Eurovision treat and a 4.5 quake just shook the house. Not going to lie, I'm feeling a bit rattled at the moment
