Oh. THIS song. UGGH.

I don't even remember hearing it in the rounds. I think I was forgetting it as I was actually listening to it. Either way the good thing is Sweden lost.

It was the Swedish singer who (co?)wrote "our" one, if that's who you meant. And I have to say, both ours and Sweden's were two of the most bland, yet one came high and one came absolute last. hmn

As for the winner, like others I barely even noticed it in the semis or even during the main event, yet it won. I thought after last year's winner we'd be stuck with bizarre winning tunes for a long time to come, but it seems to have reverted back to inoffensive, yet rather bland.

The UK's last-placed Eurovision Song Contest entry has had its score lowered by five points, organisers say.

A revision of scores means Michael Rice's song Bigger Than Us picked up only 11 points from Saturday's final.

The contest said an incorrect calculation had been used to create a "substitute" set of points after the Belarusian jury was dismissed.

I still can't remember a single thing about our entry this year. Either what it sounded like or what he looked like. shifty

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Thu May 23, 2019 7:07 pm

I can't even remember him performing.

I'm starting to think it never existed.
