Speaking of milk, we had this ad in Ireland and the UK in the 90s trying to encourage kids to drink milk. I am still not sure what that "thing" is . Do you remember this @Dragon? And P.S. I love milk too

My rankings are jumping all over the place. I am on something like my 7th listen by now of my top 16 and there is still a heap of movement. The top 3 are the only real stable positions

Haha, yes that's the original one

@tuniscof can surely compete. As long as the national jury is already registered then there is no problem with that and has happened on many occasions before where there has been additional jury members (or even replacements ) after the registration deadline. Sorry if anyone was confused by that.

The penguins are back?

We've only just found this new sport and already you are suggesting we PED our way to victory. Definitely potential in this sport.

That has potential for a new Olympic sport, it definitely sounds urban and youthful enough!

I have a photgraphic memory. Alternatively, it could be because I kept the records to preserve the history

@Werloc So here are the gaps filled in for you in your voting history.... TISC Open 2013 TISC Open 2014 10 pts, 9 pts TISC Annual 2015 TISC Open 2015

I have the history of the Lithuanian votes so if you give me some time, I can fill in those gaps for you

Actually A R Rahman has 3 appearance too so he is also very much in that battle. And you could say he has had 4 appearances since another Indian entry had music by Rahman.

If only Inna, Kensington and Eddy Grant actually knew that in our parallel world of TISC, they are locked in a three-way battle to be the most represented artist in history

I think that at TISC Open 2016, there also was no debuting nation. Edit: see dcro's answer above

For me, it's no problem at all. Manfred Mann were the first to release it so it seems absolutely fine to allow this entry represent GB. So as long as the American jury @dezbee2008 @Olympian1010 have no objections then everything is fine

The World Grand Prix has kicked off this evening

IRELAND After a tough selection process, the Irish national TISC committee have settled on a representative for TISC Open 2018. This year's chosen entry is Gary Moore with his single "Over the Hills and Far Away". The song featured on Gary's sixth studio album entitled "Wild Frontier" which was released in 1987 - I hope you will enjoy: IRELAND Gary Moore - Over The Hills And Far Away Lyrics: They came for him one winter's night Arrested, he was bound They said there'd been a robbery His pistol had been found They marched him to the station house He waited till the dawn And as they led him to the dock He knew that he'd been wronged You stand accused of robbery He heard the bailiff say He knew without an alibi Tomorrow's light would mourn his freedom Over the hills and far away For ten long years he'll count the days Over the mountains and the seas A prisoner's life for him there'll be He knew that it would cost him dear But yet he dare not say Just where he'd been that fateful night A secret it must stay He had to fight back tears of rage His heart beat like a drum For with the wife of his best friend He'd spent his final night of freedom Over the hills and far away He swears he will return one day Far from the mountains and the seas Back in her arms again he'll be Over the hills and far away Each night within his prison cell He looks out through the bars He reads the letters that she wrote One day he'll know the taste of freedom Over the hills and far away She prays he will return one day As sure as the rivers reach the seas Back in his arms again she'll be Over the hills and far away He swears he will return one day As sure as the river reach the sea Back in his arms is where she'll be Over the hills and far away She prays he will return one day As sure as the rivers reach the seas Back in her arms is where he'll be Over the hills Over the hills and far away Over the hills Over the hills and far away

Yes, seems like you are right. I will remove the first song he posted now so everyone will know which song is the actual entry

Hi Memo, was this song released before December 31st, 2013?

They grow them big in your part of the world

Wow, I am 179 cm and as of this morning I am 70.5kg. But you are a giant next to me and still lighter I am about my ideal body weight but still, in the next month I will probably try to lose a couple of kgs, because Christmas is around the corner and I will eat EVERYTHING

And neck a whole bottle of wine when Diniz gets DQ'd or retires

A drink for every super slow-mo showing the feet "lifting" and another for the commentators pointing out that the rule is "lifting must be visible to the naked eye in order to be penalised".

They missed the Annual edition this year

So far we have 4 returns: Chile, Egypt, Spain and Uruguay!

Correct!
