Eurovision 2024

[WowWowWowWow]

I think this is a little reductive; for most smaller countries this is the only opportunity for artists to get the opportunity to present their artists globally. Even though social media and the internet exist, the content on Google, Facebook and Instagram is overwhelmingly generated in Anglophone countries. Just because the platforms exist doesn't mean they are just or equitable, whereas Eurovision is a captivate audience, even if it's for a week per year.

Very fair, I don’t disagree. I should have been more precise… I was thinking more about the “hundreds of people from the delegations fly into one country for a month” part of it. Maybe viewers value all of the acts physically performing on the same stage more than I realize. I guess my point is they *could* conceivably throw to a live show in each country during the broadcast. Should they, is another story.

cross-boarder collaboration via songwriting camps

When Jimmy Joker co-writes the songs for every country in one year, the matrix will surely collapse in on itself.

I’m excited to find out what song from this year will pull a Rosa Linn and becomes a global hit despite its position in the final.

The Firefighter hive will surely rise up!

Considering they can't always connect properly to the person reading out the points, I'm not sure this logistically could work.

Moroccan Oil have posted on their website that it will remain the sponsor for 2025.

They had a contract for five years from 2020 on. Guess since 2020 was canceled it remains for 2025.

Iolanda just released a new single and the video features several of this year's artists, it's quite cute



Song is great too, and much boppier than Grito.

THERE ARE ENGLISH LYRICS IN 'TERESA & MARIA'?!

The more time goes on, the more I think Doomsday Blue has become my actually favourite from Eurovision 2024

I’ve rewatched the performance multiple times. As much as I like “The Code”, “Doomsday Blue” was the real winner performance wise. Just really wish they got to compete in a better year. So proud of them.

Switzerland is my lowest ranked winner (22nd) since Jamala back in 2016 (21st place in my personal ranking), so this whole year left a bitter taste considering it was packed with quality through and through.

25 minutes before only? I wonder what that agreement was?

The Brazilian pages have started to spam Mon Amour so be prepared!!!!

This is so cute!

It’s weird that nobody seems willing to reveal what it was.

 

[minorkey]

25 minutes before only? I wonder what that agreement was?

Maybe a guarantee that that country won't win? I can see how pulling out may have affected the end results considering the winner was among those who threatened.

I don't have any resource currently regarding to this issue but I remember some news when last rehearsals were around the corner, EBU did respond as something like that to the delegations who wanted to withdraw or show some kind of protest: "it doesn't matter if you withdraw we can use another live performances anyway"

Regarding they also did that with Portugal's performance (they uploaded iolanda's semi final performans as GF performance until RTP got angry about it) that might be the reason they changed their mind and participated in the end.
