Eurovision 2013 – MF semi 4 – Det gör (lite) ont.

“Ow, semi 4 already?” I thought to myself while going all Sheldon and demanding my own spot on the couch, getting ready to follow what has to be the worst live stream since I started following MF in 2004. Time sure goes by fast, a cliché some of the contestants in Malmö can attest to,Continue reading “Eurovision 2013 – MF semi 4 – Det gör (lite) ont.”

Eurovision 2013 – MF semi 3 – Sorry, Jasper, I’m ever so sorry.

“What do you mean, you’ve never seen Melodifestivalen?!” Jasper and I are on our way to a staff meeting of local Eurovision website Eurosong.be we both write for, and with eyes full of disbelief I stare at the self proclaimed Diva in my passenger seat. “As Eurovision fan you’ll think MF is delicious, sometimes it’sContinue reading “Eurovision 2013 – MF semi 3 – Sorry, Jasper, I’m ever so sorry.”

Eurovision 2013 – Melodifestivalen 1 & 2 – Dead fish & Japandrogeny

Right, the beginning of February! That usually means a truckload of semis and yet the only one we have written in stone on our calendar would be Melodifestivalen, getting preference over MGP’s & UMK’s anytime. But why exactly?

Eurovision 2013 – Unser Song für Malmö – Einfach Glorious

I have to admit I wasn’t always too keen on the German music scene, or at least the part of it that reached my ears through various channels without going out there and seeing for myself what they have to offer. Which means their national finals weren’t exactly troubling my schedule in the past coupleContinue reading “Eurovision 2013 – Unser Song für Malmö – Einfach Glorious”

Eurovision 2013 – Norway, Denmark, Finland & Iceland: Scandinavia does not equal Scandinavia

They were fully at it up north, the past couple of weeks, weren’t they? Two weeks of not posting anything on here and suddenly we’ve got 4 Scandinavian entries for Malmö. Time flies, you say? You are not kidding, my friend!

Who pressed the FFWD button? Suddenly it’s fracking January and Eurovision’s on season is back! After quite the crappy second half of 2012 (in my private life, no details necessary), which led to a lack of energy which led to a lacklustre attitude towards my blog, I am now forced to take the glove backContinue reading “Eurovision season 2013 kick-off: MGP semi 1 review”

Eurovision Review – 2012: Simply Euphoric

One week after the Big event I think I’m about ready to have my opinion written in stone – well, put in writing anyway. I started this blog little over a year ago which means this is the first review I publish right after the Contest took place and I have to say I’ve seenContinue reading “Eurovision Review – 2012: Simply Euphoric”

The Party’s Over Now – Off to Stockholm it is!

After a brilliant show with a lot of quality we got the exact result we’ve been predicting for months now: Loreen gave a cracking performance and walked with it in the same way as only a certain señor Rybak did before her. She completely obliterated the competition! The reprise of the winning song in theContinue reading “The Party’s Over Now – Off to Stockholm it is!”
