NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:~~~ That's it. Apologies to anybody who isn't remotely interested and hadn't blocked the hashtag <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇬🇧 United Kingdom - Remember Monday - What the Hell Just Happened? The only song on the list that I’ve heard before and it’s not bad. Not great, but better than most of its competitors. I’d put it towards the top of the left hand side. <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/UnitedKingdom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UnitedKingdom</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇺🇦 Ukraine - Ziferblat - Bird of Pray The way this starts, it’s very much a Disney song. Something from The Lion King or similar. Then.. well.. nothing really happens. I’m left waiting for it to get into its groove, but it never does. <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Ukraine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ukraine</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇨🇭  Switzerland - Zoë Më - Voyage OK. For the first 45 seconds I was struggling to think of what to write – it was.. just.. bland. Then it turned into a peaceful and inoffensive melody. Certainly better than some others but clearly designed not to win. Thinking about this again, “bland” is definitely the word. <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Switzerland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Switzerland</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇸🇪 Sweden - KAJ - Bara bada bastu Slow to get started, but OK when it gets going. Not going to win. <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Sweden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Sweden</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇪🇸 Spain - Melody - Esa diva Made me smile and I wasn’t expecting that. Good beat gets toes tapping. Surprisingly, I like this. <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Spain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Spain</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇸🇮 Slovenia - Klemen - How Much Time Do We Have Left Melancholic and wistful. Oh, and awful. Depressing and repetitive. How much time do we have left? Thankfully no more than three minutes. <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Slovenia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Slovenia</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇷🇸 Serbia - Princ - Mila This song is so bland I’d switched off. I was almost two minutes in before I remembered I was meant to be writing up my thoughts. This bilge stupefied my brain. <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Serbia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Serbia</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇸🇲 San Marino - Gabry Ponte - Tutta l'Italia Hmm. Doleful and lacking any personality. Waiting for it to end seems to last a lifetime. <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/SanMarino" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SanMarino</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇵🇹 Portugal - Napa - Deslocado Takes a while to step beyond bland. Another mix of styles. Definitely gets better. Chop the first minute. <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Portugal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Portugal</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇵🇱 Poland - Justyna Steczkowska - Gaja She sounds unhappy. It’s as though somebody dragged her out of bed, gave her a microphone and told her to get on with it. Half-hearted, uninspiring and unintelligible. Another song that could be good with somebody else doing the vocals. <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Poland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Poland</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇳🇴 Norway - Kyle Alessandro - Lighter Argh. This song is a great example of my Eurovision nightmare – young man trying on a medley of styles and genres to see what fits and not succeeding at any of them. Really, Norway? Really? The only song I desperately want to click “Next” on when it’s only half way through. <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Norway" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Norway</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇳🇱 Netherlands - Claude - C'est la vie Bidding for the French vote with a mix of French/English lyrics. Has a beat but sounds doleful with a phoned in performance. The usual quiet/loud/slow/fast Eurovision fodder. Move along, nothing to see here. <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Netherlands" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Netherlands</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇲🇪 Montenegro - Nina Žižić - Dobrodošli Ominous music behind a breathy vocal that reminds me of somebody with years of a 40 a day habit. Oooh, she’s turned into Bonnie Tyler now. For some strange reason this left me angry. Tired and angry. <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Montenegro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Montenegro</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇲🇹 Malta¬Miriana Conte - Serving - English No. Just no. Another derivative Beyoncé-esque performance exactly the same as pretty much every other Beyoncé wannabe we’ve seen in Eurovision. You’ve heard it before. (not surprised the lyrics have been changed) <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Malta" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Malta</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇱🇺 Luxembourg - Laura Thorn - La poupée monte le son Wait, have we travelled back to the 1960s? I’m sure I saw this song on an old black and white clip on YouTube. La la la la na ya. Great lyrics. Not. Getting very strong “Puppet on a string” vibes. And just to prove me wrong, two minutes in and it changes style. Why? For goodness sakes, this is so much better. Not for me. <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Luxembourg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Luxembourg</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇱🇹 Lithuania - Katarsis - Tavo akys It’s a Radiohead tribute song. And with a naff song. That was awful. <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Lithuania" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Lithuania</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇱🇻 Latvia - Tautumeitas - Bur man laimi Think 1960s. Think 5th Dimension singing “Aquarius”. Add a beat and a wall of sound and that’s all you need to know. Surprisingly, I don’t dislike this. <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Latvia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Latvia</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇮🇹 Italy - Lucio Corsi - Volevo essere un duro Quite like this – getting Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young vibes. Inoffensive. Not a winner, but it’s definitely a left hand side of the board song. <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Italy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Italy</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>

NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:🇮🇱 Israel - Yuval Raphael - New Day Will Rise Delicately sung. Singer sounds talented which makes a nice change. Would have liked it to be all in the same language (I don’t mind, pick one). I like this. It’s not going to win though. <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Israel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Israel</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/eurovision" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eurovision</a>
