LMFAO wrong Joseph! (Though I do enjoy them, too!) Why do so many Italian artists not seem to care about SEO?

This was my husband’s reaction when we learned about Mentissa last year. How wrong we were. TBH while her song was good, it was definitely underwhelming for what she’s capable of.

I probably should have done this prior to episode one…but my #SanremoGiovani predictions. Who I want in the final two: Mimì and OCCHI Who SHOULD be in the final two: Mimì and either Senza Cri, Nicolò, Jeson, or Disco Club Paradiso (my chaos pick) Who WILL be the final two: Nicolò and Antonia.

No one asked but... Style Icon: 🇦🇱 Shkodra Elektronike (though this was the TOUGHEST category) Choreo Monarch: 🇳🇴 Kyle Alessandro Artistic Vision: 🇱🇻 Tautumeitas Onstage Emsemble: 🇵🇹 NAPA Miss Congeniality: 🇲🇹 Miriana Conte Certified Banger: 🇩🇰 Sissal Outstanding Vocals: 🇫🇷 Louane

I'm saying it now....it's going to be Antonia and Nicolo as the final two. And as of right now only one of them deserves to be there (and it's not the one that performed) #SanremoGiovani

I'd love for Disco Stu to go through but I think cmqmartina had the best female vocal of the night (even if I'm not the biggest fan of the song) #SanremoGiovani

One of the judges said La Messa needed to show more authenticity and that the vocal effects made her too similar to other people. But Antonia is doing something that's not being done right now. WHAT ARE THE JUDGES SMOKING OMG?? I know the fix is in but it still drives me nuts. #SanremoGiovani

One of the judges apparently said "Antonia I liked that you don't have a typical song, it's not usually seen in Italy"...LMFAO WHAT?? It's a girl bop. A well done one...but also a dime a dozen in Italy at the moment!! #SanremoGiovani

This is a better/more dynamic performance (and I like how he's changing it up from the recording) but it doesn't even fucking matter because the fix is in. ESC season has truly started because I AM PISSED OFF #SanremoGiovani

Someone on the discord said Joseph looks like Sylvester Belt and Blanco had a baby. And then someone else called him Silvestro Cintura. And I died. #SanremoGiovani

Antonia vs Joseph? Oh I already fucking hate this. #SanremoGiovani

Only 2 going to Sanremo?? What is the point of having 24 contestants then if you're going to only send TWO??? What's the point of Giovani at all??? #SanremoGiovani

I had the extreme good fortune of seeing Jann perform live in Brooklyn this year. What a talent. What a voice.

Me: WHYYYYY are they doing these duels? No one wanted it! Everyone hated it! My husband: They don't want to put any money into Giovani...they're lucky it's not done on the side of the highway

Not a single flop in the entire lineup of Sanremo Giovani songs. The worst Giovani song is still better than the best song of a few specific national finals….just saying.

FIRST ARTIST ANNOUNCEMENT AND THE GIOVANI SONGS ARE OUT?? WE ARE SO BACK BABYYYYYYYYYYY

I don’t mean to be a conspiracy theorist, but the way this election has gone has me even more suspicious about what happened last year with the presidential election. I’m not hearing enough about this.

I love Rebecca DOWN. Known as Dollar Tree Dinners. Her “Meal in a Bag” is meant to provide ppl with a complete meal that is $8 or less, is shelf stable, & can be made without access to a full kitchen. I love this as a direct aid option. Good for neighbors & elders who can’t/wont go to a pantry.

“[I'd be] introduced as the most positive dude in music. But obviously it’s not the full story.” The singer talks about his comedown after his Eurovision triumph, and how time in Nashville inspired a new sound on his heartfelt new album: trib.al/Lgq45Dm

Finally working my way through the list of finalists for Sanremo Giovani....once again, this lineup is going to decimate some actual full NF lineups. LET ITALY HAVE THREE ENTRIES EVERY YEAR, I'M BEGGING.

Eurovision has introduced me to a lot of incredible artists...but towards the very top of that list is an Estonian band that came 7th in their national final and then promptly broke up later that year. AND I WILL FOREVER BE GRATEFUL (and also a little sad!) open.spotify.com/album/1kh3zk...

New Annalisa album is INCREDIBLE but also BAD NEWS when it comes to vocal stims...specifically the chorus of "Esibizionista" and the "do do do" part of "Avvelenata." PLEASE HELP LOL. youtu.be/iVwmGPCpXO4?...

Last night encapsulated the life of a Philly sports fan. The Phillies had an incredible season and then blew it in the playoffs, the Flyers lost their home opener, and the 4-1 Eagles got walloped by the 1-4 Giants. And yet we persevere. Barely.

Wrap it up...she's winning Sanremo and then she's winning Eurovision. (I said what I said! Let me have my delusions!) open.spotify.com/album/5whsiw...

@eurowhat.bsky.social I have to say I agree with @dudepoints.fun that Lucio Corsi is indeed a weird little dude. Just a different kind of weird than Käärijä or Joost. I'd also argue that Daði is also a weird little dude (with "little" being used loosely lol) Regardless though, GREAT episode!

the US if Tylenol actually caused autism

I've nsaid it before and I'll nsaid it again

Eurovision is a peace building project. It’s brought countries across the continent in celebration. That’s why Russia was kicked out. It’s why Israel has to be kicked out. We can’t let a song competition whitewash war crimes, apartheid and genocide.

Candace Owens said one woke thing and now everyone on tiktok is kissing her ass. What is happening?? Let her apologize for the bullshit she’s said in the past and then maybe I’ll TRY to give her a crumb of attention for what she’s saying. Also?This is a slippery slope down the alt right pipeline!!

Fedez being a Charlie Kirk supporter likely SHOULD have been on my bingo card...but it wasn’t.

Cut the bits, let them speak!! #Emmys

GO BIRDS, FUCK ICE, AND FREE PALESTINE. YES. #Emmys

I'm sorry...the Bella Ciao goes hard.

fbi puts another one in the books. closing the case the way most crime is solved: someone calls and tells them who did it.

🇮🇪 In an official statement, Irish broadcaster RTÉ states that “Ireland will not take part in the 2026 #Eurovision Song Contest if the participation of Israel goes ahead.” A final decision on Ireland’s participation will be made after the EBU’s decision on Israel. More: about.rte.ie/2025/09/11/r...

...and I didn't even know this happened. Which is telling.

For any of my American followers...since the government won't do shit to protect us from diseases, might as well take matters into our own hands. Woot (via Amazon) is selling 440 3M Aura N95 masks for $30. People on the Masks4All subreddit are saying they're legit: www.amazon.com/dp/B08J1THV9...

Also...props to Belgium, The Netherlands, Slovenia, Spain and Iceland for having some balls.

All I do is listen to Italian music anymore. I just pick one of my playlists and just let it run during the day. Every once in a while a song will shuffle on and I'll be like "Ooo, this is good!" and like 70% of the time it's Matteo Faustini. I think that's a sign to check out his catalog.

You mean to tell me that Sanremo Giovani is likely going to repeat the same format from last year that literally NO ONE LIKED??? Carlo Conti, why are you doing this to us? The head to head format is miserable and fully unfair!

🇮🇹 RAI has confirmed on their evening news that, after months of negotiations, the broadcaster has reached an agreement to keep the Festival di Sanremo in the city, and the next edition will be held from 24 to 28 February 2026.

Alright...someone has to help me out. My niece did a kids karaoke night while we were on vacation and she sang this song from the new Netflix animated movie KPop Demon Hunters. This SCREAMS Eurovision and it feels like it's similar to an ESC song but I can't pin it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=yebN...

Donated $31 (Carter Hart's jersey number during the World Junior Championships) to WOAR - Philadelphia Center Against Sexual Violence. Thinking of E.M. today and hoping she has the support she needs in the wake of this. www.woar.org

And when they try to restart their careers in a few weeks, remember, they admitted what they did, they just didnt think they should be punished for it

tw hockey canada, sexual assault with the verdict of the hockey canada trial being read today, a reminder to everyone to take care of yourselves. i see you i hear you and i believe you. i stand with survivors. i believe survivors.

I'm starting my manifestations early #Sanremo #Sanremo2026

I'm so behind on the Sanremo news/drama but I have to say I am SALTY that the finale is going to be the same night as UMK and probably an FdC semi final. I literally only care about like 4 or 5 national selections and that's three of them right there. Also BRB putting in my PTO for Sanremo week.

A lot of people have been asking how to help public radio/TV weather this current storm. One of my concerns has been making sure the most vulnerable stations that serve small populations in rural areas get the support they need to keep going. This new site offers a roadmap. adoptastation.org
