omg omg eurovision

[Dogmantra]

this year just got done with the songs + recaps so here is my official roundup!

Worst Songs:
In at #3 worst song, we have Romania
It was arguably the worst musically, but they at least made an effort and it was at least amusing to watch (even if that was why it was so awful)

#2 worst song, it's the United Kingdom!
I am so ashamed of our country, but sucking at Eurovision is the logical progression of everything else. Bonus points for having the only native English speaker being one of the least comprihensible

and the worst song this year:
Belgium
A Justin Bieber/One Direction ripoff except with a super crappy repetitive song with no climax or anything? He wasn't even cute like 2010 Belgium entry was (actually 2010 entry was also super good so yeah)

And now we have my top 6 songs countown. It's six because there were six songs I really enjoyed!
In at #6, Armenia
A rocky song written by the guitarist of Iron Maiden with a huge hint of Soundgarden's Black Hole Sun. Really fun!

#5 Hungary
It was just so charming!!!!! Wins the prize for niftiest background visuals too.

#4 France
France are a weird one, they're normally either junk (see: every year they sing in English) or really good (see: 2007). The lyrics of this one were really nifty and I found myself enjoying the sound of a romance language more than a germanic one???

#3 Greece
Alestorm have previously mined Eurovision for covers (Wolves of the Sea) and this is right up their alley. The spirit of Eurovision was shining through in this novelty folk rocky piece.

#2 Malta
just
so
happy :plumcat:

and this year's best song?
Finland
Catchy, funny, very Euro! Best act Finland have ever sent, and yeah that includes Lordi I said it, what you gonna do?

I have no idea what Eurovision is, but I liked the one Alestorm song I've heard ever, so I'm just going to nod in agreement.

okay so imagine the hunger games right?

except instead of fighting to the death, people sing songs
