Happy anniversary! perfect day for you with Eurovision!

I like how they have integrated Ukraine into it. We are sitting in our back patio following along, middle of the day here but already getting drunken texts from the family and friends in Liverpool lol

I love Graham Norton and I am not ashamed to admit it

HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW WHO GRAHAM NORTON IS?

I’m an American.

DH just said that because he’s now an American, he doesnt have to care. Not that he would anyway.

ETA: Austria skated like I do.

As well as a best selling author and he also has his own line of wine and other alcohol.

In a rare moment, I'm gonna side with @allezfred on this one. I'm American too and knew who Graham Norton was before the Eurovision movie on Netflix, lol.

Love love Austria!!

 

[marbri]

Austria is weird for me. It's a clever song but I already am over it ?‍

 

[airgelaal]

FSU must support Austrian girls. They were skating in the postcard

 

[Karen-W]

I really like Austria's song. Too bad they probably won't win because they're not hot/cute guys like Cyprus or Slovenia. Or is that only on US music contest shows that happens?

 

[my little pony]

I love Austria so much, I hate that they are first

Well Cyprus and Slovenia are 20 and 21 st in betting odds for tonight so

Who are the top 3?

 

[tony]

Two of the more entertaining acts to start the show, to save us from a lot of the snoozers that got through.

 

[marbri]

Who are the top 3?

Sweden, Finland, Ukraine, Israel, Norway are top 5 in that order.
eta... but it moves throughout the night but Sweden and Finland have been faves for some time now.

My grocery order is scheduled to be delivered any minute now. Can we please have one of those snoozy acts performing while I'm dealing with that and putting the perishables in the fridge?

 

[airgelaal]

I'm sure skaters will use this song

Are the betting odds something that are usually predictive of the eventual winner for Eurovision?

 

[my little pony]

yes sadly I see a lot of skaters using this, my future bathroom break

 

[tony]

Are the betting odds something that are usually predictive of the eventual winner for Eurovision?

Yes. When Israel won they were odds to be 2nd behind Cyprus but otherwise I think it’s been correct most of the recent years.

Jury votes are usually really good to Sweden, too.
