For those of you who aren't familiar with what Eurovision is...

It is the most anticipated and best television event of the year!! 41 countries compete with a musical entry and battle it out to get your votes! This is a competition and tradition that has taken place every year since 1956!!! The winning country then gets to host the next years Eurovision!

Here's what we know so far about Eurovision 2019:

  • The theme is 'Dare To Dream'
  • It is taking place in Tel Aviv (3rd time in Israel after 1979 & 1999)
  • The Semi-Finals will take place on the 14th & 16th of May
  • The Grand Final will take place on the 18th of May
  • 41 countries will compete
  • Bulgaria will not compete due to limited financial ability
  • Ukraine will not compete as they are still sore that Russia is still competing
  • The host country Israel as well as the Big 5: France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom will get automatic spots in the Grand Final

How does the voting work:

  • Since 2016 there has been a new positional voting system in place
  • Each country awards two sets of 12, 10, 8-1 points to to their 10 favourite songs
  • One from their professional jury and the other from televoting

Other random points:

  • The voting is my favourite part of the show tbh although the new voting system is less suspenseful
  • Just because the 'Big 5' contribute a lot of money I don't believe they should get automatic entry into the Grand Final - this is a song competition not a 'who can give the most money'
  • Lots of good songs get knocked out of the semi-finals as the 'Big 5' and host country take up 6 additional spaces

WOOOOOO EUROVISION Anyways... for those of you who are a fan of Eurovision let me know who your favourites are and who you think could win! Who sucks??

eh i didn't like poland's live performance that much even though i really liked the song itself

but hungary? absolutely robbed. i guess it's difficult to get into the final with a ballad that 99% of the people won't understand so fair enough but it was a really beautiful song sooo

i'll put everything in a spoiler tag just in case

finalists:

Spoiler
greece, belarus, serbia, cyprus, estonia, czechia, australia, iceland, san marino, slovenia




Spoiler
i'm really glad that australia, czechia and slovenia all made it, but how the hell is there no hungary? maybe i'm biased because i understand hungarian (then again i absolutely hate the country itself) but i thought that it was an absolutely beautiful song. also a shame about belgium but he really screwed up that performance so i understand why he's not there. also, how did fücking estonia make it?? i get that serhat got in for the meme and hatari for the edginess but estonia is just like lumineers-tier garbage
