Eurovision 2016 3: REVENGE OF THE GLITTER

[dhampyresa]

Unpopular Eurovision opinion: I liked the UK song from last year.

Belgium: Bored.
Czech Republic: It's cute.
Netherlands: I like the clock floor.
Azerbaidjan: I like it! Nice lightshow and costumes.
Hungary: Whistling! And one the drummers from Mad Max.
Italy: It's cute, but I like the Italian parts more than the English ones.
Isreal: This is 100% what Billy Kaplan's Eurovision entry would look like, between the hair and the lyrics.
Bulgaria: I LOVE IT! (It is 100% a Pride song, idc.)
Sweden: Eh.
Germany: WHAT.
France: I like the rhymes. (Also, time to play "how many locations in the postcard can I name", lmao.)
Poland: Meh.
Interlude: ???
Australia: Nice dress! Great voice and glitter too.
Cyprus: THIS IS GREAT!
Serbia: Her dress suits her perfectly. And the song is great.
Lithuania: How very boys band (in a good way!).
Croatia: Glitter dress!
Russia: The wings are awesome -- the staging is pretty great in general, tbh.
Spain: How many contestants have this hairstyle.
Latvia: It's okay.
Ukraine: I'm crying and the staging is great.
Malta: It's fine.
Georgia: My least favourite.
Latveria: Fuck the haters, this one's great.
Austria: Conspiracy theory time, this lovely song is about the refugiee crisis.
Wales: Put some effort in your costuming, guys.
Armenia: I think I liked this one better in the semi.

Unexpected Ian McKellen is unexpected!

My favourites: Italy, Israel, Bulgaria, Australia, Cyprus, Serbia, Ukraine, Latveria and Austria.

I was surprised Cyprus didn't get more votes. (And us. Do we know who sits on the juries? Do we know how many points we got from France? ^^ )

I confused "Latvia" with "Latveria" and thought for a second there Latveria was a Eurovision contestant.

WHAT WOULD LATVERIA'S EUROVISION ENTRY LOOK LIKE THO

Yay, you posted it! And Cyprus was my favourite, followed by Australia. (I thought she had a great voice but I didn't love the song so much.) Well, those and the Latverian entry, obviously.

Je n'ai pas suivi de près, mais c'est bien qu'on ait eu la 6ème place. J'aimais bien la chanson.

I got to watch Eurovision live for the first time - it's never aired on TV before in the US - and it was so much fun! You basically had the same reactions I did.

Russia was my favorite as a performance, though I very much see why people wouldn't want to vote for them, and Bulgaria was my #2. I was happy with Ukraine winning, though! The last few minutes of the voting was so exciting!
