I'm sure that there must be a long explanation this. But then again, the greatest voice of this century in my opinion was from Amy Winehouse. This alone makes me question how race can be a factor when it comes to a great voice.

Not saying that black people have the best voices, just saying that they're voices are a perfect fit for backing vocals, due to vocal range, blending and depth.

 

I really miss Amy Winehouse :( It happened so long ago now, it seems like forever ago, but I still remember being devastated, because I listened a lot to her and was eagerly waiting for more albums.

When your song isn't great, just add more fire.

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

I would bet if John Lundvik would take of his shirt you would see it. 

Or maybe it's just me dreaming about it?:p (I should probably stop drinking more Gin and tonic) 

No thanks, I'll wait for another athlete :evil:

Yeah. Wasn't selected. Not the first time a song was sent to Melodifestivalen but ended up in another country (we've had a few of those in Denmark as well)

and a hundred of those in Lithuania :lol:

That Belarussian girl could be the little sister of a girl who I've had way too many beers with the last few years. They look rather similar.

This has the potential for more stories while we're waiting.

Interesting, I didn't even know it was possible for entries to appear in one national competition and then represent another nation. I like this one though, but like i said, it's not popular amongst the general public. By the way, the UK going with a rejected song from another nation's selection process... that just says it all really.

I don't find it weird, bad or anything to think different 'sets' of genes may have slightly different qualities.


I'm not saying genetics is bullshit, it's just that I believe there are many other factors that could be more important than genetics when we try to explain the differences between people.

    • Sorry but this is the stupidest idea I’ve ever heard… putting in 3x3 hockey (which doesn’t even have its own World Championships or anything like that) over telemark skiing, ice cross, and freeride skiing…    This is coming from a big fan of hockey. Curious as to what @hckošice @phelps @Epic Failure @copravolley@Topicmaster1010 think though?
    • Dawn McEwen will be unretiring temporarily (first time since Beijing 2022), as she’ll be stepping in for Shannon Birchard at the GSOC HearingLife Tour Challenge! 
    • The sister of Angelina Topić, Sofija Topić, is already beating her youth records.  Sofija (11) jumped 140cm which is better Angelina's 138cm at that age. 
    • I hope there is some diversity in teams across both disciplines.   I wonder how they will get the 240 quotas. Losing Nordic Combined + Ski mountaineering is only 72 quotas.
    • Last Call For Entries!!   If anyone still wants to enter, this is your last chance to do so. Since I now won't be able to use tomorrow as a voting day I have dedcied to give people an extra 24 hours from this point to enter. The public jury vote will still open at the advertised time. Below I have tagged user from countries that have yet to enter, hopefully they will consider to do so at the last opportunity:   South Korea: @erw@jgb0062 Croatia: @Nikica@snk911@VISOKO Gabon: @Damienyork Belgium: @ALABRAMMIE@Misterxxt Latvia: @Blueniceguy Dominican Republic: @eduardo096 Singapore: @bennetcraig39 Egypt: @mahmoud elrefaei @thepharoah Qatar: @amrgunenr1@KAE Australia: @Sir Rols@Stu192 @dullard Philippines: @JohnRamos84 @PHI2019 @Tigercub Iran: @Hesamkh1990 @MHSN Estonia: @Katie_M Bangladesh: @Razu Ahmed  Montenegro: @ChandlerMne Hong Kong: @pacowong1223    Also @NaBUru38 I know you said you weren't up for doing it due to time but do you think you would reconsider? The process would now only take 3 days with you sending your song Tuesday and voting on Thursday, which isn't really too much time taken up. 
    • I just now saw this, and I already have my vote ready, oh well. 
    • Quarter final Sept 30th    2 - 1     1 - 6    Second semi final October 3rd    vs      Europe vs. South America in the  Semi finals      Probably want to see a   vs  in the final.
    • Some details on the IIHF's 3 on 3 hockey proposal: 8 team tournament for men's and women's 15 athletes per team, 240 athletes total (if they include this they better increate the 2900 athlete cap...) IOC expected to make a decision about including it in the Olympics in March
    • Not to the public until end of Wednesday, entry deadline is under 5 hours from now. Gonna see if I can persuade a couple more to join, like our Uruguayan friend who said he would be able to join due to time but now might be able to with the short turn around.
