Eurovision 2025
Jump to: Newest in thread
Oh yes it's here again whether you live it or not and it is on this Saturday 17th May. The current top five odds to give you an idea are as follows:
Sweden10/11
Austria 7/2
Israel 18/1
Belgium 20/1
France 20/1
Nobody of course knows who will be in the final as the semis have not been decided yet. The first semi is tonight.
You can discuss here which one you like best but message me who you predict to be the actual winner. After the event I will post back here the names of all those that correctly predicted the winner and the date they did so. Just a bit of lounge fun  |

One of the best reasons I can think of for living a telly free life.
I can think of a few others including sport, news and most other thing which involve sitting (nowadays called 'being sat') in front of a screen and giving it even your divided attention.
Eurovision tops it all with the hype and the third rate songs. |

I get what you mean as the thread was specifically asking to rank your favourites but nevetheless anyone can share their opinion. Some enjoy it, some not, no big deal. I have totally different music tastes, some low some high brow, but watch it as I find it entertaining. Sometimes you get a nice song too. I am certainly watching it.  |

Used to be more into it when Ireland had decent entries and were doing well. Remember watching it on 1996 just after moved to the UK and we won for 4th time in six years and our last win.
Usually now skip in and out of it watch the results. Don't know the songs enough to rank them but do like some of the costumes. |

Honestly don’t know why we expect to do well every year, saying “our song is great and stands a real chance”. No it isn’t and No it doesn’t. Most of Europe hate us, Brexit or Footy hookies, or just being arseholes when visiting their countries.
I guess there’s plenty that love the campness and colourful splendour of it’s art and diversity, so it should continue for that alone, but don’t expect us to win anytime soon.
Maybe we should vote politically too ? |

European entrants spend months on the European TV circuit getting their faces and songs known.
There is also a little resntment about British music being widely more populat than home grown acts (France is a bit of an exception).
But as someone who has spent a lot of time working in Europe, we are liked; maybe not Deform and theor supporters |

There is something correct in regards to this.. it might just be my logarithmic search on YouTube, but every time I get to the ads it was showing me the Israeli entrant so I knew and had heard the song for weeks |

"I always thought Austria would ein but would have preffered France or Greece to as they had the best vocals and more 'quality' songs overall. Anyway still all good fun. Goodnight Europe "
For the second year running France was the best song ..if watched a few times....
The German lady singer. was absolutely stunningly pretty...
The best singing voice was the Switzerland lady singer.
( all the videos on YouTube.)

I watched a few of the acts back again and it only reinforced my belief that Sweden or Estonia should've won! |

If the Slovenian song..
( How much time..do we have together)
hadn't mentioned a dying child,in the first lines,and made the song about a dying romance..it would have been fantastic....as good as any Paul McCartney ballad.

Mainland Europe (and Israel) take Eurovision seriously. That said, I haven't seen the Israel contestant on TV here (but I don't watch that much TV), but I knew the German, Austrian and ltalian contestants |
