She might have been the new Celine, instead the audience on Radio 2 didn't even vote for her. This amazing song and singer have been left languishing in obscurity - I've put Cheryl Beattie at number 1 in 1999.

New server, new #introduction
Hello sunny gardeners! Thanks for having me 😄
I'm Michelle, moving here from artisan.chat which is sadly shutting down. I'm a proud #Multicrafter and mostly toot about #Crafts of all kinds, including but not limited to #Knitting, #Crochet, #Sewing #CrossStitch and things of that ilk.
Love to see, live vicariously through, and enable the creative endeavours of others!
I also do a bit of hobby gamedev over at @teahands, and have a small crafty YT channel which is also now on PeerTube at @thegiddystitcher@makertube.net 🤓
Also also, a big fan of the #Packers and #Eurovision and toot as such during their respective seasons.
Since my old server will disappear soon, I'll attach a few examples of recently completed projects (see alt text for more info).
Looking forward to getting to know a whole new gang of creatives! 😀

With several weeks still to go before the national selection season for Eurovision 2024 kicks off, I've returned to watching the early contests in chronological order and writing up a review of the songs as performed on the night. This time: 1966 in Luxembourg City.
http://eurovisionseriously.com/2023/10/01/esc-1966-full-contest-review/
Up to number two, and out of the blue a song that didn't even make it to the stage of a national final. If only the UK televote were brave enough to send someone like Susan Black to Eurovision.

Tonight's dinner "discussion"
Would you let Hal into the Eurovision song contest? If so, for which country? (Tony's arguing Jupiter. He does not count)
Argument for: He did a pretty good turn doing "Daisy"
Argument against: Derivative style. Not enough back up dancers, insufficient sexy drumming.

🇩🇰 Der dänische Sender DR hat angekündigt, dass das Dansk Melodi Grand Prix am Samstag, den 17. Februar, im Koncertsalen des DR Koncerthuset in Kopenhagen stattfinden wird.
Nachdem 🇩🇰 sich 3x in Folge nicht qualifizieren konnte, hat DR Änderungen angekündigt. 👇
Laut DR wird es in diesem Jahr ein "engeres Screening der Songs" geben.
Außerdem wird die Jury im Finale erweitert & mit Fachleuten der Musikindustrie aus Dänemark und dem Ausland ergänzt. #Eurovision
Who were Mo & La Gazo? I'm not entirely sure. They left precisely one mark on French culture by finishing ninth in La Sélection 1999. But I think they're great.

I had sort of aspirationally bought Voyager tickets for an October show in Zurich after seeing them on #Eurovision, but got word today the tour has been postponed because Danny Estrin has been diagnosed with cancer and needs immediate treatment.
While I wasn't sure if I would go because of COVID, the gig doesn't really matter - I hope his treatment succeeds and that he is able to recover well.
@nulpointsnet Did you know you can follow hashtags on here? It's a great way to find people to follow if you are just starting out.
I have a follow set up for #Eurovision and #Eurovision2024 (which is how your post appeared in my timeline).
There's a dark side of #Eurovision about the artists that end up at the end of the chart. The harassment some of those artists have faced in their respective countries has had them in therapy for some time.
After yesterday's disappointment, back to the music! In fact all the way over to Jerusalem.

Hello Blahaj!
I'm an avid Mastodon user but I really adore #Blahaj's UI and I wanted to have another account here.
So, here's an #introduction from me.
I'm a 30-smth #gay man from Turkey. I'm a translator (English, Japanese and Turkish). I love #animes, #movies, #Eurovision, #running and #reading.
A special thanks to the writer of #FediBlock article about Blahaj. I found this gorgeous software thanks to him. ❤️
Speaking of this year’s #Eurovision, this song is still such a rush (I love both the intensity and the sense of pure fun!) https://youtu.be/l6rS8Dv5g-8?si=tAahO1dAcKVT9C6C
I had a dream last night about a #Eurovision song from this year. I was in the crowd, and I think I was really enjoying the song (the band IS very charismatic!). I have no idea why this came to me in my dream (Dream Experts, whaddya think?) https://youtu.be/3LXlPviGiWc?si=K6QfbFpVw9VK7x4a

Die Rocker von #FromFallToSpring bewerben sich erneut für den #ESC2024.
Angeblich sollen auch Anica Russo und Lonely Spring erneut Interesse zeigen.
Ikke Hüftgold und Will Church haben sogar bereits bestätigt dass sie sich erneut bewerben - also sind fast alle aus letztem Jahr offen es erneut zu versuchen. Geil! #Eurovision #EurovisionGermany #DDF

Happy New Eurovision Year to those who celebrate! Malmö 2024, here we come!
French-language Belgian broadcaster RTBF has gone for another early call in selecting actor/singer Mustii. From a quick listen to his back catalogue he seems to sit in the realm of dark pop but is versatile enough to draw influences from elsewhere. Mustii's role as a judge on Drag Race Belgique suggests we're in for an artistic, well-styled performance at the contest.
The new #Eurovision season starts today, but don't get too excited about September 1st. It's going to be months before we hear the winning #ESC songs... and Mark Taylor has the graphs to show you why.
Happy #Eurovision New Year!

Like a lot of people in the west, my main impressions of #Georgia are from #Eurovision … it gives me a lot of sympathy for their struggle against Russian hegemony.

It’s impossible to overstate how great the new #Voyager album is.
The fantastic thing is that their #Eurovision songs fit in to the album perfectly. What they brought to Liverpool was entirely authentic who they are. This is the key to winning a semi and finishing top ten.
One of my favorite #Eurovision songs: “Hemel en aarde” performed by #EdsiliaRombley for #Netherlands in 1998.
Today we have an 11-hour drive from San Antonio to Santa Fe. In hopes of enjoyably putting the kids to sleep, we put on a Great Courses audiobook on the history of Jewish civilization.
5-year-old: I heard Israel! Israel came in second in Eurovision.
7-year-old: They came in third. Cha-cha-cha came in second.
5-year-old: I can pretend they came in second! I wish Unicorn just won automatically!

@escinsight I’ve been helping Jamie get this ready for
@ESCInsight
, and I’ve found myself coming back time and again to consider the points raised in the article. Time to share it with the #eurovision community.
Ok. What I noticed that 2 CPUs and 2 GB RAM is way too little for a well federated server. I had to scale up up to 8vcpus and 32 GB RAM to keep the queues in real time sync with the world wide viral #Eurovision event.
But if it ramps up like that without a reason maybe there's a bug?
I only just learned that Germany’s #Eurovision entrant #LordOfTheLost did a metal cover of the incredibly fun song ‘Cha Cha Cha’ originally performed by Finland’s entry Käärijä. It’s great!
And the album cover design is just delightful (a throwback to the very iconic neon green outfit the singer wore). Love it! #GraphicDesign
Outstanding work. Definitely one of the best "drunk buys" posts ever.
The calls for The Northern Boys to be UK's #Eurovision entry make a lot of sense to me. They'd have their best chance in ages if they entered The Northern Boys, I think.

Professionally, I am somewhere between #Egyptology and #MachineLearning. I'm currently doing my #PhD, applying ML approaches on fragmentary ancient Egyptian papyri, including things like #handwriting analysis, #NLP, #ObjectDetection, #Segmentation etc.
HOBBIES :ablobcatbongo:
Outside the university, I'm a very passionate #gamer, doing lots of PC video #gaming (#Steam is ❤️). I love #politics, I am a dedicated #plantdaddy. Sometimes I draw or write stories, whenever there is enough time left. I'm also a huuuge #Eurovision addict!
PRIVATE :QueerCat_Pride:
Pronouns are he/him, I'm definitely :heart_pride:, thus dedicated to #LGBTQIA rights. I also very much support #BLM and all minority rights in general - as they are an absolute necessity.
Listen, Euphoria is still my favourite ever #Eurovision song, but listening again to this year's winner I still feel it writes a cheque it cannae cash
quoting this tweet from a twitter moot:
"as reparation for the atrocities committed by the spanish empire, the spanish government should shoulder the cost of visa, airfare, accommodation and per diem of faqqots from their former colonies who want to go to this concert (me)."

I can't remember who it was here that I saw posting a recommendation for Space Opera by @catvalente but whoever you were, thank you so much.
I bought it pretty much on a whim based on that post and it's terrific. It's kind of as if Douglas Adams was still around and was writing about an intergalactic version of Eurovision.
Perfect fodder for a Sunday afternoon lazing in the garden - especially as one of my neighbours seems to have decided to soundtrack themselves doing the same by playing George Michael's entire musical output.
