I think it's very important to point out only is Spain a big 5 member with massive a domestic audience, they're also a massive gateway to the Latin American audience

I'd say that thinking a competition that is a meeting point for almost all of Europe with a massive global audience isn't inherently political no matter the circumstances makes you completely unsuitable to be the boss of a broadcasting service. #Eurovision

Eurovision has always been and always will be political.

Performing 7th is the Independent Neutral Artist Michael Ben David with the song "Am Yisrael Chai"

HANNAH MAE EUROVISION EXTENDED UNIVERSE ARTIST

that's my stan country 🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱

Got to see the fantastic @actualmontaigne.bsky.social opening for Daði Freyr last night! Listen their album It's Hard To Be A Fish because it's brilliant.

KEiiNO's Fred Buljo has failed to be elected to the Sámi Parliament of Norway if people are wondering

happy Sametinget election day to Jovnna Levi

Pommelien Thijs is actually so good at music imagine if Belgium were real

So the EBU lied about nobody objecting to their participation then?

happy 2026 season, can't wait for her winner interval!!!

Actually astounding that Matilda Mann and Jesus Quisto both feature in the same TES Article and I'm not even the one who wrote it

mia NICOLAI ❤️

probably my favourite discovery this year. she just does not miss.

seeing instagram stories of people watching MARO opening for Shawn Mendes. One step closer to MARO world domination at least

lisboa by capital da bulgária

YouTube needs an option for "stop showing me this ad because you're embarrassing yourself at this point" No I have not driven a Jaguar or Land Rover and have not been missold insurance. I cannot drive.

Being a Deslocado fan since FdC must be how it feels to be a scientist who has finally had their life's work accepted after years of trying

You have no idea how happy I am there's another person with Portugal and Netherlands as two of their favourite countries

Halfway through and she's still song of the year

oh I might need to get tickets now

I truly love when Spotify doesn't let me stream music that has very much been released, they should do it more!

Hahaha beyond fucking parody

Capital da Bulgária mentioned!!!

I think Stig Rästa should be referred to at all times as "Sitting member of the Estonian Riigikogu Stig Rästa" just to really hammer home how insane these antics are

have come back to this gem again recently

Watching old Eurovisions is great because you go "oh my god this song is amazing how did it not win???" and then you look and it came like 23rd in a field of 25

to be a foreigner who first got into nederpop through eurovision is to be perennially shocked at quite how successful douwe bob is

Parks & Recreation hit the nail on the head with "It's one of those rare songs that rocks really hard, and also informs people about a small public works project" because songs in and around that niche genre are the best

I wonder if there's a time in my life that you can pinpoint as when I began heading towards the "listening to songs in a provincial selection for a Dutch song contest" trajectory

HAPPY CAPITAL DA BULGÁRIA SUMMER ONE AND ALL 🍓

We've finally made it to the Kate Ryan portion of the rewatching. Life is good.

post a banger that's not in english

Come for the contest stay for getting to bully Rory's cooking abilities

Watching late 00s-early 10s Eurovision is wild because you have to enjoy the fantastic Balkan entries knowing that Belgium and Switzerland have some of the worst songs ever written just waiting for you

EVERYBODY. IT IS ONCE AGAIN MIDNIGHT SUMMER NIGHT.

This article series that ERR in Estonia put out every week is so great and every state broadcaster/news site should be doing the same

This one will be an absolute star one day.

MARO opening for Shawn Mendes, her world domination era is imminent my friends

Just had a TikTok from Suzan & Freek come onto my FYP, only posted a day ago, with a full Ziggo Dome singing their song. Just makes their news from today hit so much harder

Now it's people from all over the world <3

tis a sad indication of eurovision that 3 of my top 5 countries in the 2013-2025 era by average placement in my own rankings aren't even competing anymore

Spotify needs to do a Baltics New Music Friday

Nowhere near as bad as Israel obviously but whilst we're going after obviously dodgy votes can we PLEASE put a stop to the dream team

The only twitter account I still use is exclusively for group chats and it follows 0 accounts and the algorithm it gives me is so funny because the language all the posts I see are in seems to change week by week, was Ukrainian and Turkish last week and now it's mostly Spanish

frankly a disgusting west/east televote split that will only get worse as more and more eastern countries pull out because of exactly shenanigans like this

When you have one person who is intent on ruining the party for everyone else, it doesn't matter who their friends are. At some point, the bouncer is going to need to kick them out of the bar.

I do wonder what the point in people competing actually is if it's just going to come down to the jury winner vs the country that has a marketing budget to whitewash their genocide every year
