Some giggle worthy moments during the performance (I do so love interpretive dance), but NeferTina ain't got a hope in hell with this effort, sadly ...

I am slightly stunned that Portugal is bringing an end of its own language rule! Everybody faint with shock together!
Yes. Very sad, but might give them a better result so...

Hehe San Marino RTV hits back at the €500,000 claim by Tony Maiello! This might start to get juicy! http://wiwibloggs.com/2017/01/03/san...aiello/162847/

Never Forget would have been my 12 pointer if I had voted. I know their live performance wasn't the greatest but it's still a tragedy that they were only in 20th place.
Yes.
TYhey should have stayed in semi

I'd be on board with If I Were Sorry if it were sung by someone who could actually sing.
Flush Frans down the toilet.
Aww. I've warmed to this one. There were still 7 better options in the Melfest final though.
I agree with the second half of your sentence. .
OMG really?
It was the best song this year my FAR and one of the best Swedish entries ever in an incredibly poor MF year

Is It True is one of the best all out ballads ever at Eurovision imo. Yohanna's vocals on the night were sublime too.
Written by a Brit too...
I met his wife/gf randomly in LA last year. She was super sweet. So weird.

I've packed your belongings and placed them by the front door for when your taxi arrives, it was nice knowing you.

Nah, they'll get it down to 500 Euro's and it'll be Serhat heading for Kyiv on a rented moped.
