Almost no jury points for The Rasmus
WTF?! Thats fucked up, that makes no sense, i'm gonna have to see this for myself, that is disgraceful and insulting....
Also I checked out the Ukraine song and thus the new music video for it and it's very emotional and the song is beautiful, powerful and such, I love it:
I do feel like they deserved to win regardless of the current situation with Ukraine but Eurovision has always been hampered by politics and such, countries voting for their own "friendly neighbour countries" and refusing to give points/high points to certain others and such. Theres always been gossip and drama in that regard IIRC? It just comes with the territtory I suppose, tons of different countries competing together is gonna have its bias, "alliances" and pettiness even.
Apparently our entry is from Tiktok too? I've seen British comedians get picked up by Hollywood for movies a lot lately, some Youtubers getting picked to be on British TV programmes and now people getting recruited by their Tiktok posts too! What crazy times we live in! Interesting and very opportunistic, like never before!
I know Papa Roach collaborated with someone who covered Last Resort on Tiktok and released an official remix and collaboration of Last Resort with them, which was a really cool remix and new version of it but far too short sadly! Was a really fresh take on it though, with some nice rap and such!
I cannot even believe that the UK came 2nd apparentlly?! I'm sorry but WHAT?! How the fuck did we pull that off?! Plus we're the ones who did Brexit in the end after all these years of waiting and almost half the entire country at least trying to avoid it happening too!
The guy looks like Thor or a Viking at least but sounds like he's on helium? Kinda fitting he's singing about space then? Lmao.
That's definitely the strongest performance I've seen in many ways from the UK in a LONG time as far as I remember. That weird disconnect with his voice, the falsetto tone with the viking look and the whole space theme does fit the weirdness/campness/zaniness of Eurovision too.
The fact its a very 80s type rock song with a guitar solo too is very awesome too. It's no wonder he came 2nd and was submitted by us Brits for Eurovision too ofc! The smartest decision the UK has made in a VERY long time hahahaha!
Considering that was live too, his vocals are AMAZING regarding that too, VERY impressive! He reminds me of the band ABC, (Martin I forget his surname lol), who I used to adore, especially their singer too
OH WTF?! I didn't know Mika was there too?! I used to love his music too!
Happy Ending is one of my favourite songs, it hits extremely personally/deeply for me too! Mika and Sam Ryder would be a pretty cool combo to think of it, similar vocal styles annd Mika would suit rock music potentially too! Plus I've just found out Mika is Lebanese which is also pretty cool!
I really feel like I should have paid attention to Eurovision this time, I'm regretting it a lot now! Although I'm furious on how The Rasmus have been treated though, WTF once again?!
