I think Germany's singer is a boss in Diablo.

Hell to the ****ing yes, this is what it's about. "Blood and glitter, satan's litter" 🤣 Amazing.

Did the German singer lose his right trouser leg in his chainring?

Hence shouting blood and presumably the glitter is coming from the missing lycra.

This Lithuania one has no hope following Germany.
And it's remarkably dull.

Don’t usually watch but I always thought the instruments were live rather than backing track? I’m pretty sure ABBA hammered it out live back in the day 😁

Sam Ryder has easily the best song here. That being said, I’m hoping for Aus to win.

Yeah, Australia for me. Terry Thomas meets captain hook on vocals. Bejesus
UK's entry was shite, just to rub it in Sam Ryder's song straight after was a show winner.
Wonder how the block voting will go though with no Russia to menace their neighbours to vote for them, no Ireland either so I guess we are nill points

Some sympathy votes from Ukraine and Ireland so at least it's not null points but it was hardly Sam Ryder this year from us.
