Test

  1. Edis Matusevičius with a good throw in the Javelin. His result was 84.55, only 23 centimetres shorter than his Lithuanian Record and only 45 centimetres off from an Olympic qualifying throw. Still, with this, he went over 83 metres and qualified for the World Championships.
  2. Yeah, one of my biggest disappointments were that no one bothered to at least implement that spinning platform, because that moment when they held hands before the final chorus looked pretty great. Now it was just them walking. Kinda felt this one on a personal level, as it was on the level of the extremely poor staging that I've had in this year's selection where I just walked around, because I got a 6 days notice that I'm performing in the first show that's airing January 5th, but is being filmed before Christmas
  3. Well, having them qualify automatically is very counter-productive and also a reason why nobody from big 5 is winning the Eurovision anymore. THEY DON'T GET TO PERFORM IN THE SEMI-FINALS. They are shooting themselves in the foot hard with this one as they get the least exposure compared to other Eurovision artists.
  4. I'm honestly most sad for Czech Republic. Apart from Mikolas Josef, the televote is brutally murdering them every single year.
  5. And as always those that get punished in the end are the artists. To this day, I still can't understand the last place you got in 2016. One of the things that I dislike most about Eurovision is the attitude towards the Big 5, where only Italy gets praised and showered with love every year, while Germany, Spain and UK have an all-out brawl with the hosts for last place, combined with France somewhere in the middle.
  6. I'm sorry that my monologue interrupted your celebration of Germany getting a 0. I'll let myself out now.
  7. Melodical conception was bad. The beats during the chorus were giving me PTSD from all of the cheapest Swedish Eurovision beats that they used to love to send. Combined with a man that struggles to sing at all I felt sorry for the woman, she's a solid performer.
  8. Yeah, I remember the yodelling got a lot of televotes too, so I'm not very surprised actually. Still doesn't really change the fact that the song had an awful conception as was somewhat shown by the low score from the jury. I loved Norway in 2014, adored Norway in 2015 and loved Norway again in 2017. Last year it was Rybak with the worst lyrics of 2018 (and that's in a year where we had songs like Gucci gang), so I am really really hoping Norway can make this right with a wonderful song in 2020, because I miss enjoying your music.
  9. No offence to Norway, but the song that they've sent was beyond awful. It was on par with the crime against music when Romania sent yodelling. The jury nearly picked Macedonia, a very bland, uninteresting song with a vocalist that's middle of the pack and for the first time in my life, I couldn't even sing a single line of it, cause I don't remember it. Thank fuck that with the combined votes, we at least got Netherlands in 1st and Italy in 2nd and ultimately there were at least five songs in the top 10 that were good.
  10. I'm a strong believer that both the jury and the televote votes are fucked up, but together, we sometimes manage to come to a consensus of not choosing a horrible winner.
  11. Okay, the arena saying "Greece" simultaneously was an iconic moment
  12. Off topic, but, could you teleport me to tomorrow's evening so that I could live in a reality where I've finished my bachelor's degree?
  13. A lovely older woman, transgender man, a Serduchka, eye candy and a Swedish boy singing Hallelujah.
  14. This literally was everything that Eurovision is about in two minutes. Hats off to Israel
  15. I did not know that I needed this until today.
  16. Spain used staging ____________________________ It was mildly effective
  17. Though it's fair to note that Australia is closing the gap little by little.
  18. Croatia gave us shirtless men to begin with, but the angel wings were a strong debuff and they didn't qualify.
  19. and a hundred of those in Lithuania
  20. 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.
  21. I think it's some sort of myth or legend where you have to train every day and something happens. Been trying for more than 10 years and nothing happened, so I'm assuming that it is as real as unicorns.
  22. Well, it is a very popularised music theory. I don't have the medical vocabulary to explain it correctly in English, so I guess we'll just leave it at that. Just saying there's a reason why on every live SNL, Ellen live performance and concerts, artists are usually backed up by black backing vocalists. Actually had the pleasure of working with some black musicians from UK that were touring with us in Lithuania, not to mention that they could play any and every instrument, the bassist and I repeat the BASSIST had the best vocals in the effing room
  23. Serhat should pick up this Norwegian man for a winning duet in 2020.
  24. Duncan was my favourite coming into this, but I'm slightly underwhelmed just as I was during the semi-final. This is the time to perform, but his best performance that I heard was a radio show that he did. I still don't think that anyone is capable of dethroning him today and he is still one of my personal favourites, but the gap is really small compared to what I felt when coming into this competition.
  25. See-through shirts are the new classy shirtless look. Where you really want to show your abs, but don't want anybody else to think that you want to show off your abs.
