We’re all making assumptions about the juries this year. We’re assuming that they’ll be directed to vote highly for songs that could be an international hit, or similar nonsense. For all we know, they might be directed to vote highly for songs that best represent the indie rock/polka fusion scene in your country. Assumptions. Never presume anything.
There’s a charm about this. Rock and polka have considerably more chemistry between them than certain other alleged couples in this competition. It’s got the hookiest hook in all hookdom. It takes you on a three minute ride, and it’s as much fun as you’ll get around this year’s Eurovisionia.
Still not qualifying, unfortunately. But it’s a song that I am going to be coming back to for years to come. So there. Phhht.
Phil: In my world, this is the rightful winner. It’s going to p*ss all over everyone and those juries that will pick songs where Rock/Polka is rife in the charts are going to lap it up.
In real life, this is brilliant. It won the national final with four times as many votes as the next song, but here it’ll be lucky to score four points from anyone to be honest but, like Nick, I don’t care!
Roy has just said it might qualify… I heart him! – I would love it to qualify, but I really can’t see it doing so….
However, I would laugh heartily if this was drawn next to Finl
