    Following on from Molly's Eurovision SURLAW, and Necro's mention of a Greatest Song Tournament, I thought this might compliment the Eurovision theme.

    The topic of this sheep is Eurovision Songs. The object of SHEEP is to give the most popular answer. The song doesn't need to have won the Eurovision, just any song which has been entered by any country since 1956.
    Over 1,500 entries have been submitted into the Eurovision Song Contest since it began - so best of luck :D
    PM me a list of your answers in alphabetical order.

    For the purposes of this game, the word 'THE' can be left out from the start of the song name.
    For example if the song is called "The Song" you can just put it under S.

    Nice and simple, no traps, and you may google if you wish. As always no wrong answers in Sheep!


    Below is a list of the letters of the alphabet and all you have to do is PM me back your list, unnumbered, and unlettered. DO NOT post your list on thread.


    Use the below as a template:

    I am more worried about knowing too many and putting in stuff I think is obvious and nobody even heard of it. Will have to calm myself down.:D

    I grew up following the Eurovision Song Contest - not so much since the '00s - just the voting! So, for the sake of nostalgia.... :D

    I'm the opposite, didn't follow it much until recent years when a fella uploaded all the old shows on a foreign website and I started watching out of curiosity and got into it like a new hobby.

    I usually use giphy.com as they generally work for me and I can find the right kind of links :pac:
    When you find the one you want, on their site on the right hand side of the gif they have an option to 'Copy link' - there are two links when you click, you want the 'GIF Link', it will end in .gif
    Then paste that between image tags INSERTLINKHERE
    Also it doesn't generally work when on mobile :)

    I think I may have taken on too much this week what with a deadline in work and werewolf. Haven't had a chance to come back and update the thread even.
    So pushing the closing date out to the end of the week!
    Not a whole heap of entries yet anyway :( please enter!

    Oh phew!! I want to enter but didn't think I had time. I'll get an entry in before the week is out!

    I gave it a plug in the Music Forum to get more interest and, potentially, more Forum Gamers going forward!
