Trend alert: every year there’s this one National Final that trumps – *coughs* nay triumphs over – all other NF’s. And rather unexpectedly *coughs again* it was one of the Nordics holding it in store for us!

NF frenzy – Unser Lied für Israel + Melodifestivalen 2019 semi 4: I do…or do I?
Another weekend in February, another National Finals frenzy. You choose, you lose!
Melodifestivalen 2019 semi 3: Jinx!
No, not Jinx Monsoon. The infamous Dimivision jinx! There’s always one night where everything goes exactly the opposite of how it should go (in my own little not that humble opinion). Yesterday was that night. Assuming it’s limited to one night only, that is…
Melodifestivalen 2019 semi 2, Australia Decides, Montevizija 2019 & San Remo: Patience is a virtue.
Second weekend of February, so ON SEASON is in full swing, which makes for tough choices – dedicate time to every selection, or play catch-up afterwards cause life goes on? And what about simultaneous broadcasts? #firstworldproblems if ever there were some! One thing was for sure: sometimes you get more than you bargained for. AContinue reading “Melodifestivalen 2019 semi 2, Australia Decides, Montevizija 2019 & San Remo: Patience is a virtue.”
Melodifestivalen 2019 semi 1: Mamma Mia, då kör vi igen…
Ah, Melodifestivalen. I remember when I was excited for it to begin. Curious to discover what those curious Swedes would come up with next. How times have changed. For MF as well as for me…
Destination Eurovision 2019: The Crown(ing)
Oh, it’s ON season again? Damn time, moving too fast – I’m totally not ready for all the NF drama yet. But okay, let’s have at it then! Starting with France! So the French have decided (ha!) to keep their national final and instead of learning a thing or two and adapting the revived selectionContinue reading “Destination Eurovision 2019: The Crown(ing)”
Dimivision presents: the 18 jams of ’18
The end of the year is rapidly approaching, and before diving head first into 2019 it’s time for a look back on fantastic year of music. So much choice, so little time…but I managed to get myself a little list anyway. Here’s what my year in music looked…eum…sounded like.
Eurovision 2018 Review – Wronger Than Wrong
Rest assured, that title does not function as a slogan for my feelings towards this year’s final. It’s simply a manifestation of pure self awareness. It’s the least I could do after having doubted or even ignored the eventual top three. My crystal ball was clearly on holiday. I can already hear septa Unella andContinue reading “Eurovision 2018 Review – Wronger Than Wrong”
Happy Eurovision Day!
Due to extreme outdoors activities yesterday I totally missed my ‘the day after’ appointment for Semi 2 – let’s make up for that by giving a quick look back and a quick look forward in one go. Cause this is our night, we’ll fly to the top baby – oh sorry, wrong Greek crowd pleaser!
Eurovision 2018 Semi 1 – The Day After
Funny how those weeks between the last entry being chosen and Eurovision itself seem to last forever. Tossing and turning, looking at every entry from every angle… Until that first semi somehow manages to overturn almost everything we were nearly sure about, cause as always reality trumps fiction (pun may or may not be intended).Continue reading “Eurovision 2018 Semi 1 – The Day After”
