  1. It’s not bad tbh. I hope they get the staging right because Eurovision is as much about the spectacle as the song. Our staging has been extremely bland for the past 5 years.

  2. He was awesome in texan hardcore band Close Your Eyes for a while. Guy has a killer voice.

  3. Not my scene but is there any benefit to actually doing this? Doesn’t help people get a bump from it here in the uk does it? Does it actually help sales in Europe?

  4. Shows how little I know about social media, a huge following on Tik Tok and Instagram but never heard of this guy. Maybe it could mean a reasonable placing, a good song and his career not instantly dying afterwards. Or maybe none of that actually matters. I do like Eurovision as it is just so *weird*, we are so insular in our music that we basically never get to see what is going on on mainland Europe. Also the entitlement about our place there, how we feel we should win, constant complaints about political voting.
