Eurovision 2024

Anything the poster doesn’t like.

I think beetroots are woke. And they are sort of red. Leftist food.

It means that you are aware, awoken to other peoples differences and struggles and lives, or at least it should mean that, but sadly it largely means that someone will twist themselves in knots like waving around Palestinian flags with people shouting from the river to the sea and supporting Hamas who kill homosexuals, how can anyone stand behind that, and claim to be 'woke'.
Yes no one wants to see kids from any country dying (apart from many Middle east countries so long as the kids are westerners), but waving around flags and slogan's from Hamas, outside a hugely vibrant and welcoming music event?!
Utter mentalists...
But of course, the same rules don't apply to the middle east as we are meant to be held to a higher standard, which is actually the true definition of 'racist', to think 'we' are morally and intellectually superior... that is racism and its the far left doing it...
Why should the middle eastern countries get a free pass to hate gays and stop women living normal lives and having slaves? Why do we tolerate that? Why aren't we more vocal in calling it out? We need the Oil? We need the investments? Why?

Based on the internet the far right say I'm a libtard and the far left tell me I'm a racist bigot, so from that i judge that my views are about right.

Germany to win for me, great song and really well performed, Ukraine's song is very strong as is dare i say it, Israel's song.
Lithuania is strong, Greece has a 37 year old woman who is hot as hell, but yes Switzerland is extremely well performed and up there with Sam Ryder as the perfectly crafted pop song.
I look forward to a few hours of utter joy in the face of a toxic world thinking of the miserable sts who will never understand how ste their world is with no colour in it.

As a protest at Israel not being disqualified

from competing I will boycott the televised event.

Your post reminds me of this.

Exactly

Folks, a polite notice, this is the Eurovision thread to discuss the music. This is not N,P and E. So if you want to make political statements or commentary then go elsewhere, as those posts will not be entertained on this thread. The last thing I want during the show is to be scrolling through political drivel.

So please keep it focused on the music please. As I say, a very low tolerant but polite notice

We always watch Eurovision on the night only so all the songs are new to us and we form our opinion on a single hearing,

It's going to be extremely difficult this year with Rylan commentating; what is the alternative?

I actually quite like Rylan but I'm more used to him when he's on podcasts and stuff where he's gloves off and completely himself, in that environment he's a right laugh!

Why?

Wos he done?

You're in luck, Scott and Rylan only do the TV commentary for the semis (insert your own jokes here).

According to the BBC: "Graham Norton split his time between the main stage and the commentary box in 2023 but he's live with you on BBC One and BBC iPlayer for the whole show this year as your UK commentator for the Eurovision 2024 Grand Final.

"Over on BBC Radio 2 and BBC Sounds, Scott Mills and Rylan will be leading the commentary on the airwaves."

I don't mind Scott and Rylan, but I can see how they might be an acquired taste.
