The thing is they still win. They get to do this all over again, they’ll be in that split screen this time next year and they might well fall short again But until they ‘win’ or get removed there is no conclusion, they’ll continue to hijack the contest 🤷‍♀️

I’d like to profusely apologise to Shkodra Elektronike for being two weeks late sharing this, but they’ve gone and done it again. Another single, another banger. I continue to adore them. youtu.be/LmT1TjwGw5U?...

Very late to the party here, but I’ve started watching Love on the Spectrum and I need Steve to find someone because he is the most delightful human

I’ve waited for a Shkodra Elektronike tour but I don’t think I can make the dates work 😭

Now everyone is present and accounted for - I don’t think this is hard year to boycott Lack of standout songs means they will win if they want it (haven’t heard it, don’t need to) Greece & Australia will be the competition. I don’t see Finland in the top ten. Good luck EBU, I guess 🤷‍♀️

Bring her back, Simon

Very aware I post every one of their music videos/releases but Shkodra Elektronike continue to be brilliant and everyone should know about it youtu.be/_wswnVKaoFA?...

That new Look Mum No Computer song is awesome, big fan.

Lads off of Tavo Akys on our flight innit.

Eclipse comes close to being great but not sure it reaches it in studio form. Chorus starts strong but it’s not fully nailed, and you think we’re in for a huge final 45 seconds but it flatters to deceive It’ll be one to impress more when live anyway

I’ll have a proper catch up when I’m not being a tourist in Vilnius but on this weekends action Sal is a fantastic winner of #SanRemo Delighted my top two made the top 3. Wish I could’ve watched this week Didn’t listen to the #pze songs, were Lavina really the best on offer? It’s not for me

Lion getting the best reaction during the recap here #EurovizijaLT Followed by SHWR and Let Me Cook. FML, Lithuania Definitely a minority of booing for Atikin who also gets a good reception despite it

I’ve been up since 2am to make the journey to Vilnius and witness that #EurovizijaLT What the fuck am I doing with my life?

Huge noise in the arena for Atikin but loss some booing?? #EurovizijaLt

Loved Noy in Stranger Things. Not here #EurovizijaLT

Lion went big in the hall, brilliant #EurovizijaLT

Pro-Palestinian protest outside the arena in Vilnius this evening #EurovizijaLT

Making being up since two this morning an awful lot better, love this!!

The Jesusy couple are the most boring pair this show has had #LoveIsBlind They could forget to include them in the wedding episode and not a soul would notice

Is Boy George aware of this? Senhit, our freaky queen, you can do better

My #Sanremo2026 top five, in no particular order (cause I can’t figure out an order yet), after first listens: - Ditonellapiaga - Serena Brancale - Sal Da Vinci - Maria Antonietta & Colombre - Ermal Meta

Unlikely to be joining in with the #Sanremo2026 fun this year A combination of TIRED, early starts and being in Vilnius from Friday means it’s not possible but gonna be catching up at a more sociable time

Unhinged episode of #DragRaceUK, I wish Melinda Verga was still with us to have been a part of the madness The show has kinda run its course 2,000 seasons in but this has been a great one

…How did Walls Of Water get through? #EurovizijaLT Least favourite of the night. Lolita Zero with both sets of 12s? Love that Not their strongest song but I’ll be looking forward to seeing them next week.

Weakest of the heats in #Melfest last night. Not a decent song to be found; Cimberly the only one with a song that any personality whatsoever Have liked previous Smash Into Pieces efforts but Hollow isn’t on that level

Debated posting this because I don’t want to publicly admit that I watch #LoveIsBlind but it’s the saddest thing that Netflix has given this show a music budget now Really missing the cheap royalty music to match the situation

Went to bed early last night so missed Dora and whatever Greece called their one Delighted the sassy lil Greek cherub & Witchy Croatian Tautemeitas both won. It’s making EiC more tempting

Vanilla Ninja beat NOEP by 1% in the super final (35% vs 34%), and Ollie very close behind on 31% #EestiLaul

Oh my God yes, No Kiss Goodbye in #Eurovizija is so Lithuanian selection. Love it, love her. Why did she make her dancers do a black line down the middle of their faces? Incredible

I’ve always enjoyed Medina in #Melfest, Viva L’Amor is the best thing so far this year in Sweden Saga my least favourite from the heat, I’d of had Eva or Patrik 2nd. Both competent without being anything to shout about

Fresh from 2nd place in #EestiLaul about ten minutes ago, we now have NOEP in #LSMSupernova

Okay, he was third. NOEP, my guy, a brilliant second place #EestiLaul Vanilla Ninja take the win. Another one for Sven Lohmus

Was that Ollie third or Ollie top two? #EestiLaul

The superfinal may change things but for Vanilla Ninja to have made it over the Cowboys they must’ve gotten the 8 points and Vanilla Ninja picking up the 12 - putting both on 19 over all #EestiLaul

NOEP in the super final! #EestiLaul

Emilija wrote a single line of lyrics and called it a song #LSMSupernova

Ericka Jane in #DMGP into Legzdina in #LSMSupernova We are blessed

Did that woman call him Nurp? #EestiLaul

Okay, voting update after three(?) songs!? Legzdina last is criminal #LSMSupernova Cruel Angel made this final..

Love Take It #LSMSupernova Inspired by Markus Riva’s performance last year

I liked Soren’s song on first listen but haven’t been playing it at all since #DMGP This is pretty awesome live. Denmark has legit decent options on offer for the first time in forever. Wild

I don’t think it’s intended for me to be giggling at the low energy “Can you feel it” being met with enthusiastic woo’s and yeahs #DMGP

Balancing #LSMSupernova and #DMGP now, but focusing on Latvia. Only interested in Sissal and Erika in Denmark

Nahhhhh #EestiLaul ETV needs to stop enabling Stig Rasta

It didn’t blow me away, but I love Too Epic To Be True #EestiLaul

Did that one Vanilla Ninja get her nips pierced with her top still on? #EestiLaul

There are some odd production choices going on here #EestiLaul Shame, felt Wounds could’ve been a nice moment in this selection

Getter Jaani with a Sven written entry, works every time #EestiLaul

NOËP, my hun, love you but please have a go at #EestiLaul in a less genocider enabling year

This is Ollie’s best #EestiLaul effort, but I did think the other two were crap He’s a bit monotonous & another following the theme of a slow stroll around the stage. It’s a low energy evening in Tallinn Him winning in this field would be underwhelming
