The most headscratching lyrics of 2019
“If you wanna see, just open your eyes” Solid advice for which I’m sure the blind community will be grateful, Jurij(us).
“I have a dream […] as beautiful as it is extreme / […] it’s not as crazy as it may seem.” “I have a really XTREME DREME. But… it’s not so crazy.” “I thought you said it was extreme?” “It is. But it’s not so crazy.” “So the dream isn’t so beautiful then?” “Nah, it’s REALLY beautiful!” “Then the dream is really extreme?” “Yes.” “So then it’s really crazy.” “No.”
Friend of a Friend in its entirety What kind of couple have a long conversation about neighbours having sex? (Who writes a song about it?) Who brings attention to it, then comments on the copulating couple by telling their girlfriend that they used to know one another?
“It doesn’t take too much – only just a miracle” First of all, what is “it”? Because if it’s referring back to the thing directly before this sentence, not judging others, then we hardly need miraculous intervention. And secondly, if it takes “only just” (pick one, not both) a miracle, how the hell does it not take too much, whatever it is? “Nobody gunna like this… yes ya gunna like it” A very abrupt volte-face in the matter of a few lines!
“A storm like this – can break a man like this” First of all, double A+ for rhyming this with this. Secondly, it has to be a pretty special intensity storm to be able to break a human being apart, especially when in the same song, the sky falling down is considered a trivial issue. I repeat - a single meteorological condition can break him but the sky falling down cannot. Logical.
“Ne me demandez pas qui je suis; moi, je suis…” Don’t ask me who I am. Let me sing a self-aggrandising song about who I am instead! “Quand je rêve, je suis un roi” It’s a great aspiration to have – to be a king in the country famous for beheading Louis XVI.
“Maybe they can’t be heard or seen, but tears aren’t quiet things, they screeammm” If they scream, they most definitely can be heard tho? “All your dreams have gone away […] I will always tell you life is beautiful and fine” Serhat’s friend: I’m desolate. All my hopes have died! Serhat: But life is BEAUTIFUL! Serhat’s friend: No it’s not. Serhat: … yes it is?
“It’s now or never; it’s forever” How can it be both when the two are mutually exclusive?
“No rhyme is a match for you” “I’m leaving your ass for this poetry book!”
i was confused about the orange carpet at first but it’s just foreshadowing for next year isn’t it

What you should know about the Eurovision Song Contest if you have never watched it
Eurovision is the dumbest and most wonderful thing on television. Nowadays you can watch it live on the official Eurovision Youtube channel, which is much better than tv because there’s no adds AND you can hear all the presenters’ wonderful accents instead of whoever is commenting in your own country. Double win.
A lot of non-European countries participate to this thing with “Euro” in its name. We know. Get over it. The whole thing doesn’t make any sense anyway so why would you draw the line at “this isn’t an European country so this isn’t logical”. Like. Guys. People are burning pianos and baking bread on stage. Come on.
The jury will almost never vote for the songs you actually liked. Sometimes they won’t even vote for the songs themselves but for the other countries they like. It’s okay. It’s part of the fun. The public’s points can change absolutely everything anyway.
The actual goal is to become a meme, really. Moldova in particular usually knows that (even though their 2019 entry looks rather serious), but you can never anticipate anything. Did anyone see Ukraine’s flaming coffin-piano coming last year? I didn’t.
You can’t vote for your own country. That’s also the point (although it’s not too bad in my case since my country, France, doesn’t understand the meme aspect and keeps sending serious stuff. Our real goal is actually to have more points than England and that’s basically it. My favorite French entry is actually our worst score ever. This is sad).
The songs have to be short and non-political, which kinda explains why a lot of them are about love and/or peace (see below).
At some point someone in the public will probably try to climb on stage and do something stupid.
It isn’t Eurovision until something is on fire.
It also isn’t Eurovision if there isn’t something truely incomprehensible happening on stage.
Like in these examples from last year.
Some notable entries
This parody has everything you need to know about eurovision. No, really. Watch it. I’ll wait here
This is Verka Serduchka from 2007. ALL HAIL VERKA SERDUCHKA.
This guy with the awesome saxophone solo is Sergey Stepanov from Sunstroke Project.
You might know him as The Epic Sax Guy.
Also he came back in 2017 to save our souls.
This is my favorite Russian entry ever and it has grandmas baking bread on stage.
Ireland once sent a muppet turkey which kept saying “Irlande douze points” (Ireland twelve points in French). No, it didn’t win
In 2006, Finland won with this entry. It is glorious and I will hear no argument otherwise
This was Ukraine’s entry last year and the first contestant to open the grand finale. Yes, the guy is in a piano that is also a coffin. Yes, the stairs and the piano are on fire. Yes, this is the kind of madness that usually happens at least once per year.
In 2015 Israël sent an extremely catchy song which rhymed “And before I leave” with “let me show you Tel Aviv” (10/10 everyone can go home) and ended with “ok, we’ve gotta go! Three minutes! Bye bye” because the timer ran out.
Also, last year in 2018, they won with this wonderful bit of chicken-like beatboxing.
The Grand Finale is next Saturday and we can’t be sure of anything yet but in the rehearsals we already have a song which chorus is “nanana” repeated over and over, a guy with green bird-like sleeves and random sneakers doing some sort of interpretative dance, and bondage s&m synth punk. No, really.
See you next Saturday!
The holy trinity
ESC '19 acts, Jamala has more uncomfortable questions for you...
Just as a wee bit of jest, here are some awkward questions I imagine Jamala asking some of this year's lot.
Cyprus: Replay is literal replay?
Montenegro: You thought adding random instruments in background would make qualification chances stronger?
Hungary: Origo was better?
Belarus: And if we don't like it?
UK: Song is secretly about EU?
Belgium: You forgot chorus?
Germany: You couldn't find actual sisters?
Israel: Kan really don't want another win?
Ireland: Video was filmed on an old mobile phone?
Norway: You thought animal wig was good idea?
Georgia: Varada is varada?
Estonia: Avicii estate wants writing credits?
Sweden: It is?
Spain: Lo que ere de verdad e?
Iceland: Love is forever and everyone?
Lithuania: Running with large carnivores is bad advice?
the week leading up to eurovision is when i start getting hyped about it so i made a bingo card for it (i haven’t looked at any of the songs for this year)
One thing I really enjoy about eurovision is that these 2 bands that have represented Iceland have worn similar clothes behind the scenes
And it could almost make you wonder if their on stage look is also similar
It is not.
me, externally, when someone asks how often i watch eurovision videos on YouTube:
me, internally, while reciting the lyrics to love love peace peace:
i love this meme format
UK: (puts little to no effort into finding a singer) (Chooses bland, safe songs that wouldn’t have even done that well 30 years ago) (Actively discourages even remotely popular artists from competing because it’s “career suicide”) (Half asses its NF in a single night event on a secondary channel) (Only gives its audience 3 songs to pick from) (Accuses the other countries of cheating and gets particularly upset when Slavic nations receive points) (Basically doesn’t give a fuck) (Comes bottom 3)
UK:
Sometimes I jolt awake because of the memory of the Spanish dude’s voice breaking while singing “do it for your lover” two years ago
The Spirit In The Sky music video is like Norway said “well we still have some stuff left from the Ylvis What Does The Fox say vid from years back, let’s just use them”
i hope bdsm and anti-capitalism will win esc 2019
