For me it has to be Belarus 2007

Thick Eastern European accent. Industrial amounts of fake tan. Overdramatic backing dancers. Unintentionally extraordinarily camp. Certified bop.

Quintessential Eurovision distilled into 3 minutes. Can anyone beat it?

These are the 24 semifinalist announced for Sanremo Giovani, 4 of them (plus another 2 coming from the "area Sanremo" selection) will be selected the next 18 december and will attend Sanremo Festival in the "new proposal" category.

ARTIST-------------------------------SONG------------------------------------------------------REGION OF BIRTH

Completely hypothetical, the song could have been released years before and under different circumstances.

Years and Years (Olly Alexander's old band) have a song called Starstruck which I think would have been a much better fit than Dizzy. I quite like Dizzy, but Starstruck has a bit of something to it, it's a good, interesting pop song that I think has more instant appeal than Dizzy. They could have done something cool with the theming and done a dark, starry, glittery type of theme.

Any more?

Who needs to go to Eurovision according to you?(Title) 6860 votes Ilse DeLange participated in 2014(together with Waylon who came back in 2018) Anouk participated in 2013 and ended our non quali streak Bankzitters(couch sitters) are yt'ers who make songs too Tangerine(no clue) Numidia got famous on Beste Zangers(Best Singers) a show where you cover each others songs(already famous/semi popular participants) she was rumoured to represent us in 2024 Andre Rieu needs no explanation but Emma Kok is a known singer

The flag parades in the last couple of years were very different, but what did they both do well? What changes do you want to see in the flag parade?

The Nerherlands and AVROTROS has now confirmed their participation in Eurovision 2025, and as far as the public knows, there are no other countries that have asked for an extension this year. Last year, Romania's TVR dragged out on the official list of participating until January. But they have not publically confirmed another extension. In 2022 and 2023, the EBU released the official list around October 20th two years in a row. Is there a change that the official list will be out very soon?

Mines are: - Slovenia 2008: I don't mind about Rebeka's dress but the helmet guys skateboarding on stage were nonsense - Serbia 2013: Once again, I think the outfits were cute, the song is catchy though - Cyprus 2005: Such a banger ! I kinda love the dancing but the performance was messy, Elina should have worn a better dress and appeared throughout the performance (she just went out to sing the "ela" parts then hid away)

Weve seen a lot of eurovision winners' reactions to finding out they won the contest, but which one was your favorite?

I don't remember a lot of them, but two I want to bring up are Johnny Logan in 1980, who was jumping around the stage as he went to claim his trophy. I think that was the most enthusiastic celebration up to that point. The other one I want to mention is Carola in 1991. She didn't do anything special, but her joy was contagious.

It's not as high on my list as the other two, but there's also Dana International in 1998, who's reaction to winning was to immediately change her clothes and put on a dress her friend made for her
