    Sweden have Little Big vibes going on

    This swedish song has lots of Finnish in it!

    Including some swear words 😁 I like it!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,119 ✭✭✭✭mailburner


    this will bomb with the jury

    Would need to walk the tv to win


    not sure tbh

    It’s so average

    Don't think Sweden will win but their consistency of high standard song is commendable.

    Sweden are Eurovision.

    I don't think this'll win. A bit too novelty IMO.

    This country established its own government – hopelessly imperfect though it may be – to serve and vindicate the needs of Irish people, first and foremost.

    The electorate are a huge part of the problem. You put shite in, you get shite back.

    Sweden: I like that they sent something very different from their usual kind of entry….but I just don't get the appeal of it. 😐️



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 22,410 ✭✭✭✭FixdePitchmark


    Good act - but would be well below a winning song ?



  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 7,648 Mod ✭✭✭✭Irish Aris


    Damn. Even when they send a goofy song, the Swedes take it seriously.

    This is something that Finland could have sent.

    No complaints from me if they win again. Very good production and staging.

    Intermittently popping in and out of watching this. Never heard the Irish song, but it must have been some cack to not qualify having heard some of the $h1t€ on stage tonight.

    Another one these odds on favorites I just don't get the hype for.

    And we are only just over half way through this thing



  • Site Banned Posts: 12,922 ✭✭✭✭suvigirl


    Ahhh makes sense, it's very Finnish in fairness



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,329 ✭✭✭✭odyssey06


    They filled a stadium for a watch party. Wow.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,069 ✭✭✭mulbot


    Just remembered in my subconscious the length of Tommy Cash's tie😅😅😅😅😅😅



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78,406 ✭✭✭✭Welsh Megaman


    The atmosphere in that stadium is 100 times better than in the actual arena 😮



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,820 ✭✭✭RoryMac


    It was, easily worse than anything on show tonight



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,663 ✭✭✭✭Kermit.de.frog


    Think they have it wrapped up. Once the Baltic bloc voting mafia gets going it will be done.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 22,410 ✭✭✭✭FixdePitchmark


    Are all the songs done ?

    This break is taking the piss ?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 6,772 ✭✭✭archfi


    Well, that's the fav I can see why it is

    I saw some YT video dissecting it the other day and yer man (music teacher) said it has everything in it to appeal to all demographics

    Portugal is nice but meh.

    Denmark is good for a club but so generic.

    Great fun from Sweden, and catchy - but I'd hate to see it win.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,230 ✭✭✭Mike3549


    Not a winner song. Compared to both songs Loreen sang and other Swedish winners, its crap. Tommy cash style, top 5-10.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 22,410 ✭✭✭✭FixdePitchmark


    They also just sang another swedish song after the swedish song - that was out of order



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,069 ✭✭✭mulbot


    Not sure, out to evens on exchange but some big lay bets, though it's definitely between them and Austria



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,331 ✭✭✭✭LambshankRedemption


    This is why RTE dont want to win it again. To ensure the security of all the people that came would bankrupt them.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 244 ✭✭Put It In H


    Watch party talks to two Swedish fans, plays famous Swedish song, after Sweden have just performed…. 🤔

    Surely a tad overkill?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 23,248 ✭✭✭✭2smiggy


    Ya I think Eurovision every year is basically a massive money laundering operation they use once a year !!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 6,772 ✭✭✭archfi


    Another big favourite, I automatically love it beacuse it's in French

    The sand is actually ground-up cork.
