Girls, I know the forum has entered terminal decline, but we might save it if we keep recycling terrible 2 year old takes that are of interest to literally no one outside this thread

Good job we aren't posting them in the Gaming and Tech forum then!

 

[VoR]

Has Diodato done much else since he won San Remo?

 

[win_the_game]

He released an album straight after Sanremo and a few singles during the rest of 2020. ‘Fai rumore’ was the third/fourth single off the album by that point.

For someone on an independent indie music label, he’s done well all things considered.

YES WE MIGHT!

 

[Penelope]

This ENTIRE FORUM is of no interest to anyone outside this forum!

AND YET!

 

[win_the_game]

Also some of you lot are a right bunch of miseries.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Also some of you lot are a right bunch of miseries.

This is a group that want Hold Me Closer to win.

Misery is a compliment to them!

 

[Penelope]

Would have been a much better winner than Think About Things

Also IN WHAT WORLD?!

"oh never mind this quirky original terrific pop song creating a whole new aesthetic at Eurovision - simply MUST piss and shit ourselves over this bargain bucket ballad of the kind we get about TWO OF MOST YEARS DID YOU KNOW IT'S IN ITALIAN?!? "

 

[Penelope]

Why is @Penelope so hostile to anything Italian?

I think a Brividi sync listen would really calm us all down.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

If we are arguing about the past, why not a Soldi sync instead, since that is ACTUALLY GOOD.

 

[Madíson]

Why is @Penelope so hostile to anything Italian?

He has strong irredentist views on Trieste.

No Degree of Separation is my favourite entry of the decade!

Poor love's allergic to pasta and is very bitter about it

 

[Pingu]

No Degree of Separation is my favourite entry of the decade!

Probably wouldn't quote the one with an English title when trying to make a point here...

 

[Penelope]

But mostly it's the years when they turn up with ANY OLD SHIT BALLAD and hordes of Euroqueens start pretending it's the GREATEST THING EVER because OMG DID YOU KNOW IT'S IN ITALIAN? IT'S SUCH A BEAUTIFUL LANGUAGE!!!

WATCH SOME FUCKING SALÓ THEN!

 

[Penelope]

I prefer it in Italian AS IT GOES

Yes, NESSUN DORMA DEGREDIADO DU SEPARAZIONE thank you very much @Penelope

 

[Kratz]

This might be the most noble and true thing ever written on Mopsy.

 

[Alias #23]

this bargain bucket ballad of the kind we get about TWO OF MOST YEARS

WATCH SOME FUCKING SALÓ THEN!

I liked it, but then I always enjoy fun, light-hearted comedies

 

[Alias #23]

Also some of you lot are a right bunch of miseries.

What a shocking and I would say sickening accusation

I MEAN AS IF!

WATCH SOME FUCKING SALÓ THEN!

I was planning on running my BEST OF SANREMO evening in anticipation of this year’s Eurovizione Italiano. A SPECTACULAR of all the most beautiful, emotional Italian language ballads sung by GRAVEL VOICED lovelies, and all the SPEAK SINGING you could ever ask for.

Don’t think I’ll bother now.

It's utterly thrilling and gorgeous and fills me with joy. Obviously Italy's best entry BY FAR indicative of which being it attained one of their worst results!

 

[Apoca]

This looks incredible

HRM Cornelia won't need to spin a disc - the entire backdrop is a GIANT (slightly) SPINNING DISC.

I approve.

 

[Kratz]

Oh good, she can put the papier-maché away before she glues her fingers together

 

[D5K]

I misread this as HMS Cornelia. Bless all who sail in her.

 

[Alias #23]

She did get the vocal a bit wrong from the start at the final - I think it was slightly sharp but musicologists can correct me - and never recovered - but let's face it, it was far too subtle and thoughtful for the masses

 

[COB]

I still don't know what I'm doing with the spare ticket I bought, I looked at the ticket site and there doesn't seem to be any mechanism to resell it on there?

 

[Soldi]

I’m sure they’ll be a Euroloon desperate for a ticket in Turin.

 

[Iguana]

I still don't know what I'm doing with the spare ticket I bought, I looked at the ticket site and there doesn't seem to be any mechanism to resell it on there?

The ticket site says this:

If you can’t use your ticket it can only be resold through the website FanSale.it from Thursday 14 April, 10:00 CEST until Thursday 5 May, 18:00 CEST. Resale on any other site is explicitly prohibited.

 

[Alias #23]

I've often wondered why I've never especially wanted to see Eurovision live but it would probably be like an ABBA Talk event but on a larger scale so case closed

Also, there would be people singing along and getting their flags in my face I MEAN CAN YOU IMAGINE
