The last time we made it was 2016, which was incidentally the last time Bosnia and Herzegovina competed as well. And before 2016, we have to go back to 2009. But is not coming back... ever. Ex-yu was a big thorn in the ESC's eye for years, but alas they managed to solve it for good. Yeah, the whole let's get inspired by Taylor Swift's "Willow" borrow the melody, the vocals and bring an acoustic guitar on stage didn't work out too good this year. But in any case, you guys qualified to the final in 2018, didn't you? I REFUSE to believe in an alternate reality where people didn't vote for Franka. dcro 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Werloc 3,125 Posted May 15, 2022 #424 Share Posted May 15, 2022 Just rewatched Franka out of curiosity and holy shit did they leave her out there to die with no choreography and no scenography. She had great live vocals, but this is what I call the "Macedonian budget award" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werloc 3,125 Posted May 15, 2022 #425 Share Posted May 15, 2022 If anybody wants to know anything more about the "Macedonian budget award", well, all I can say is that Macedonia doesn't need to do anything, they just get it by default every year by doing nothing. But sometimes other European countries want a taste of that sweet sweet Macedonian ESC budget. If you need another example of a "Macedonian budget award" look no further than our very own Jurijus with a black T-shirt and jeans from probably Zara back in 2019. Ooh look, pretty shiny golden lights in between the close-ups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds bad, but remember: Romania this year only had money to buy half t-shirts for the guys, and Spain went for such an expensive outfit that they could only cover the bare minimum of her singer 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!

Most countries were able to dress their main vocalist, but the dancers, oh god the dancers. So many shirtless men on stage. Is this the equality that we strived for??? Men can no longer afford a shirt and many were even shopping in the women's section. heywoodu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
