what did I just watch?

is the reaction one should have for at least one entry of whichever-vision. Well done UK !

[โ€“] Emperor@feddit.uk 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

We did our best to find the best representation of modern Britain.

[โ€“] ThePyroPython@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

And that "what the fuck did I just watch?!" reaction is the role the UK usually fills, aside from Moldova occasionally.

[โ€“] Emperor@feddit.uk 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Very true. I think it's an angle we should lean more into in Eurovision rather than the bland pop we often nominate.

[โ€“] ThePyroPython@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Very true. I genuinely want Pete and Baz to represent the UK at the next Eurovision.

It's the only way we can possibly win.

[โ€“] Emperor@feddit.uk 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I'm definitely up for that. However, they were nominated and The Northern Boys convincingly beat them so...

[โ€“] ThePyroPython@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Fair point.

But could you imagine the whole of Europe getting wild to Pete and Bas - Get Low

Also I would love to hear Graham Norton's live reaction to that.

[โ€“] Emperor@feddit.uk 3 points 11 months ago

Definitely to all of that. It's a pity it just dropped as I'd have nominated it instead.

I hope this also goes some way to addressing the request from the top YouTube comment as the UK Eurovision committee have cruelly overlooked this potential entry:

This is great haha, thanks for participating!!

[โ€“] Emperor@feddit.uk 2 points 10 months ago

And thanks for running it, it's been fun.

I have dropped a link into that post - it may give the OP some small comfort to know it made it this far.

[โ€“] Aggravationstation@feddit.uk 5 points 11 months ago

Oh FUCK yes! Northern Boys 4 life!

[โ€“] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Fucking love the Northern Boys! If youโ€™d entered Nobody Likes me or Party Time youโ€™d have my vote guaranteed.

[โ€“] Emperor@feddit.uk 3 points 11 months ago

I checked them but they are from 2022 and, so, aren't eligible. This was my next best shot.
