TiBB Eurovision Song Contest: Minsk 2018
Friday 1st June & Saturday 2nd June

Official Wikia: Click Here! (https://channel-tibb.wikia.com/wiki/TiBB_Eurovision_Song_Contest_2018)

It is almost that time to let the competition begin again! TiBB Eurovision is coming back for the tenth year in a row to coincide with the real life contest, as 4 of those times were done around Christmas; and its the first year under my control :hee: What songs will be read and heard? What will Rudolph and Augustine do this year? Who will be offended by Trump jokes? Will we get to freak-out mid-voting as another forum member enters the Big Brother house? Where is the constant translations into French? And when will we hear the glorious refrains of the female Bulgarian singer who sang gibberish? We just have no clue.

- If you want to take part, reply to this thread with the country you want! But please, if you do reserve a country, I expect an entry.
- As usual, all applicants must produce their own song. This usually takes the form of a funny parody of an existing song, or (in recent contests) original songs.
- Lyrics, an artist name and song title are all that's required.
- However, the majority of past participants have opted to include wardrobe designs, stage designs, and even an audio/video recording.
- Members may only represent one country.
- Given recent hostile surroundings, I ask that no members who're banned are used as subject matter in your songs :p - this rule has been in place since 2014 but hey, wouldn't you know? It's still appropriate!

You have just about 3 and a half months to create your entries (long story short: the contest is in May)... please make them as entertaining as possible, and please don't feel afraid to take part :) The more entries, the more fun it is to run. Songs can be about anything you like, and whilst we are fairly liberal with what is deemed "in good taste" obviously a song containing 30 different death threats may well find itself lost in my inbox and doomed never to enter :laugh:

The winner of this glorious festivity shall also receive a supply of Anastasia Beverly Hills cosmetics this lovely little award, already shared by the amazing TiBB legends of Dezzy, Niamh, PJ, and Shaun! - http://cdn.thisisbigbrother.com/medals/eurovision.gif (this is a placeholder for a new award currently waiting approval, check your PMs Niamh!) - so if that isn't motivation to bring your A game, I don't know what is.

For more motivation, because who doesn't want to break Shaun's record of 321 points from Christmasvision 2017; the public will have more say as to who wins (a la Melodifestivalen). This year, the public will have their votes separated from the participants; and the public votes counted in an online poll will be counted and converted to points by proportional representation of the percentages.

[Denver]

Lebanon please

[Wizard.]

I’ll be a judge and I’ll take the United Kingdom so I can make us win at least one Eurovision.

[Denver]

And ill be a judge if needed

[Amy Jade]

I shall wait and see whom is judging before commiting but I look forward to seeing you run this Josiah!

[Josiah.]

Thank you Amy! I'm excited to be taking the reigns from Shaun, and I know I'll be doing him proud.

[T*]

Sweden pls!

[RileyH]

Can I have Andorra pls :hugesmile:

[Morgan.]

I'll judge please ;)

[Morgan.]

Also since Riley took my beloved UK I will take Austria please!

[TwentyOneThrones]

I think I'll go for Italia this time!

[Josiah.]

Also, this year; postcards will mean more as I am suggesting that you make a video and/or take pictures of you making the flag of the country you are participating as in creative ways (a la Eurovision 2014), so I can make postcards look very pretty and unique.

I'm not forcing you all to do this bit; I can just use bits and pieces of the actual ESC2014 postcards in their place.

[Epic.]

Ireland

[Niamh.]

IrelandYou stole my country :fist:

[Wizard.]

Also I thought these were usually in the summer? March seems a bit early

[Morgan.]

Niamh, I'm letting you keep Ireland. Epic, please choose another country.

It's first come first serve though right :shrug:

[Morgan.]

Also I thought these were usually in the summer? March seems a bit early

I love May

[Josiah.]

It's January; May is 3 and a half months from now.

[Niamh.]

It's first come first serve though right :shrug:I was only joking anyway, calm down :worry:

I'll have Iceland please Josiah, it's almost Ireland :hee:

[Vicky.]

I am not creative, but feel the need to be a part of this somehow. I will judge if you are still needing people. Hopefully its on a good night for me :laugh: If not I will still find someway to do it

[Vicky.]

I thought Shaun ran this too. What have I missed?! :laugh:

[Niamh.]

I thought Shaun ran this too. What have I missed?! [emoji23]He's taking a break from it

[Vicky.]

Ah right I see. Understandable completely given how many games he runs :laugh:

[Niamh.]

Josiah always helps him with anyway, so he's already a professional :love:

[Josiah.]

Wow, 9 countries reserved and 7 judges spots chosen already; and this isn't happening until the 4th of May.

[Jøsh]

I'll judge if needed.

[Tom4784]

B&H, please :love:

[Morgan.]

I was only joking anyway, calm down :worry:

I'll have Iceland please Josiah, it's almost Ireland :hee:

Did I come across angry :worry: I just thought it was always a first come first served basis :worry:

[Nicky91]

Czech Republic please

[TwentyOneThrones]

O this is happening on the day before my bday fun!!!!

[TwentyOneThrones]

Wait the results are on my bday eekkkkk

[Jamie89]

Ooh excellent, I'll have Croatia as usual please Josiah.

Good luck with it I'm sure you'll do a great job!

[Nicky91]

i'm gonna do my research on czech songs, czech language, i want to make a good impression, do something unique for once, in hopes to get my best result yet

[Wizard.]

It's January; May is 3 and a half months from now.

Oops

[Josiah.]

Wow, 8 judges spots reserved and 12 countries have already been chosen. Not too bad at the moment.

[Nicky91]

already started writing my entry

[Livia]

Israel please, Josiah.

[Josiah.]

I've already received Nicky91's entry; and my own entry. So, that's a plus.

[Jake.]

I’ll take Spain please!

[Josiah.]

I can't believe that in just 13 weeks, our annual tradition of hilarity will ensue.

[Livia]

I can't believe that in just 13 weeks, our annual tradition of hilarity will ensue.

I'm going to be reeeeeally early with my entry, Josiah. Looking forward to it, it's always an hilarious night.

[Nicky91]

i love TiBB Eurovision as well, such a good laugh and also showing how creative we all can be with writing our own songs :)

[Nicky91]

4th May is unlucky date for me, we in holland have our remembrance day, our 2 minutes of silence

[Josiah.]

We are now 3 months away from our favourite time of the year.

[Nicky91]

i've been promoting our game on http://www.escforum.net/forum/index.php a eurovision forum

just to get our game also noticed by others, they have a game called ISC and OSC, they create their own country and then use songs from all over the world, but i think ours is more cool to write our own songs instead

[Morgan.]

Ngl I doubt I’d be able to get an entry in as I have no idea what to do. I think I’ll just stick to judging Josiah :)

[Nicky91]

Ngl I doubt I’d be able to get an entry in as I have no idea what to do. I think I’ll just stick to judging Josiah :)

me SHOOOK, you had a iconic bop at xmasvision

[Josiah.]

2 and a half months to go, and only 2 out of 14 (formerly 15) songs so far.

[Josiah.]

Two months to go! Let's just hope that I don't have to postpone this until Christmasvision in December because of a low number of songs.

[Josiah.]

I think people forgot about this, and I really don't want to force another edition onto Shaun or postpone this until December if there's a low number (2) of songs... :(

[Shaun]

I usually didn't start receiving the bulk of entries until about the end of April, to be fair :laugh:

[MB.]

Yeah I'm glad you're enthusiastic, but this is all way too early to even be thinking about how many entries you've received

[Nicky91]

i am hopeful for this year's contest

[Jamie89]

I think people forgot about this, and I really don't want to force another edition onto Shaun or postpone this until December if there's a low number (2) of songs... :(

I don't think I've ever submitted my song more than a day before the deadline :laugh: I wouldn't worry about it Josiah

[Ant.]

I'll reserve Albania please :)

[Nicky91]

some news from Czechia, we will reveal our staging details April 7th

[TwentyOneThrones]

My song should be sent in 2/3 weeks time. I have something interesting planned...

[Nicky91]

time for me now to introduce several team czechia members

https://static6.imagecollect.com/preview/4964/d63d17657438dde

Sacha Skarbek songwriter/producer

http://img.karaoketexty.cz/img/artists/29802/marta-jandova-134483.jpg

Marta Jandova, singer/songwriter

[DutchBrother]

I'll will take the netherlands :)

[Josiah.]

With the way things are at the moment, the recording of my song won't be complete until either the end of this month or the beginning of next month.

Also, with DutchBrother requesting The Netherlands (and hopefully with a song ready for May); it's the first time we've had The Netherlands in TiBB Eurovision or Christmasvision since 2015.

[Mystic Mock]

I'll be Vatican City please.

[Babayaro.]

France pls

[Nicky91]

Good Luck Marc :love:

[Babayaro.]

Thanks babe :D

[Josiah.]

With Mock and Babayaro requesting countries (and Mock sending in a song), we now have 3 confirmed countries (Czech Republic, Denmark, and Vatican City), and 18 provisional.

[MB.]

I'll provisionally take Estonia please, although I won't have my song in for a while yet and it probably won't be much good :laugh:

[Josiah.]

Make that 19 provisional.

[Tom4784]

I've got the idea for my song, I just need to work on it, I'll have it submitted closer to the date.

[Josiah.]

19 provisional countries. That's the most we've had in a year (when there was 17) but it doesn't beat Xmasvision 2015 when there was 27.

[Nicky91]

wow :clap1:

[Underscore]

I will take Slovenia with it being my heritage provisionally :love:

[Josiah.]

This is getting even more exciting, especially since I've been working on my own song, the graphics and postcards, and the running order.

[Nicky91]

wow you're working so hard on this Josiah :hug:

[Josiah.]

Also, since there's now 20 provisional countries, there's now 3,260 points to be received from the judges overall.

[Josiah.]

wow you're working so hard on this Josiah :hug:

I am, and its paying off (even with uni work mixed in).

[Underscore]

i am working on my song and it's patchy af lol

[Nicky91]

Also, since there's now 20 provisional countries, there's now 3,260 points to be received from the judges overall.

ooh, that's many points :hee:

[Josiah.]

ooh, that's many points :hee:

Yes it is, and with the Melfest-ish voting bit I added; there's even more points at stake.

[Mystic Mock]

With Mock and Babayaro requesting countries (and Mock sending in a song), we now have 3 confirmed countries (Czech Republic, Denmark, and Vatican City), and 18 provisional.

Thanks Josiah.:)

My song is a parody on negative stereotypes around Country Music so if you are a fan of the genre be prepared to possibly being offended.:joker:

[Nicky91]

running order wise, i'm happy i think

[Jayson]

Out of the blue but could I do Germany please, had a cracking idea for a song whilst on ketamine a while ago and this is the only outlet I could think of

[Josiah.]

I'm letting you all know now (unless you've read the Wikia), that I've set a minimum of 12 countries and a maximum of 22 countries for the grand final; because I don't want a Xmasvision 2015 repeat and sitting at the computer for about 3-3.5 hours.

Also, here's the provisional* running order (that I keep updating):
01 • Netherlands - DutchBrother
02 • Sweden - T*
03 • Croatia - Jamie89
04 • Ireland - Epic.
05 • Norway - Shaun
06 • Italy - TwentyOneThrones
07 • Albania - Lilbro
08 • Czech Republic - Nicky91 - RECEIVED
09 • Bosnia and Herzegovina - Dezzy
10 • Lebanon - Adam.
11 • Denmark - Josiah. - FINISHED
12 • Spain - Jake.
13 • Iceland - Niamh.
14 • United Kingdom - Riley.
15 • Andorra - RileyH
16 • Israel - Livia
17 • Vatican City - Mystic Mock - RECEIVED
18 • France - Babayaro.
19 • Estonia - MB.
20 • Slovenia - Underscore
21 • Germany - Jayson

*NOTE: The running order is subject to change in-case of a lack of song submissions.

[Josiah.]

We've got exactly 5 weeks to go.

[Nicky91]

i've now noticed, this edition will probably have the complete big 5 (france, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK) of real eurovision


wow :clap1:

[Mystic Mock]

It's gonna be jepic.

[Josiah.]

Postcards are taking shape, and they are going to be awesome! I'm making song banners for the posts with the songs and for when the voting details get posted.

[Nicky91]

a month till TiBB Eurovision

[Nicky91]

bump

[Josiah.]

Yes, one month to go! So, it could be a great time to start submitting songs.

[Nicky91]

i really hope my friend can send his dutch entry, from what he told me his idea sounds fab and so funny

[Josiah.]

Also, here's a sneak peek at the scoreboard!
https://i.imgur.com/Fc4nAwL.jpg

[Barry.]

Aww you are missing a letter.

[Nicky91]

i hope we will be getting some iconic funny songs this year

[Wizard.]

The United Kingdom will be performing an original song. Hope you all like it x

[Mystic Mock]

The United Kingdom will be performing an original song. Hope you all like it x

We'll riley like it.:cool:












Being serious though I'm sure that the song will be fun.:dance:

[Wizard.]

We'll riley like it.:cool:












Being serious though I'm sure that the song will be fun.:dance:

Thanks, it's not a funny song though.

[Josiah.]

Still waiting on the influx of song submissions...

You all can't comprehend how excited I am to be hosting this year, and you all will see a really cool version of the scoreboard this year. Then again, you'll be seeing lots of videos this year.

[Nicky91]

sounds very cool Josiah, you really take advantage of your first year as tibb eurovision host :hee:

[Wizard.]

I can EXCLUSIVELY reveal that the United Kingdom will be performing the original track “Billie Piper” for TiBB Eurovision 2018.

[Nicky91]

lovely song title :love:

[Josiah.]

Just so you all know, I'm making a flag ceremony bit; just to make it feel a bit more like actual Eurovision in a way.

[TwentyOneThrones]

Don't want to throw a spanner in the works but I no longer wish to be a member of the judges/jury because this clashes with my bday (5th May) and I'd rather spend that time celebrating than scoring (other than the usual voting of all the national juries)

[Underscore]

I'll be a judge if u want rather than writing a song?

[Barry.]

I can judge?

[Josiah.]

OP has been updated with the revision to the judging panel.

[Tom4784]

If I survive tonight, I'll work on finishing my entry.

[Josiah.]

The exact deadline that I am setting for all song submissions is 4 May 2018 at 5.30pm BST/12.30pm EDT/6.30pm CEST

[Shaun]

and what time is that in my homeland of Norway?

[Josiah.]

Norway is in CEST, so 6.30pm local time.

[TwentyOneThrones]

I have submitted my entry :P

[Nicky91]

bump

[Nicky91]

16 days till TiBB Eurovision, submit the entries now to Josiah guys

[Barry.]

Can’t wait to judge.

[Josiah.]

Not much time left to submit songs, only TWO weeks to go!

[Tom4784]

I'll get mine sorted out tomorrow.

[kirklancaster]

The exact deadline that I am setting for all song submissions is 4 May 2018 at 5.30pm BST/12.30pm EDT/6.30pm CEST

Is it too late for me to enter this Josiah? You have spare countries and I can craft an entry before the deadline. I will take Greece if I am eligible.

[Nicky91]

Is it too late for me to enter this Josiah? You have spare countries and I can craft an entry before the deadline. I will take Greece if I am eligible.

22 is the maximum amount anyway

[Babayaro.]

I finally have a good idea for a song!

[RileyH]

I might have to pull out

[Nicky91]

I might have to pull out

NOOOOOOO, just think of something, doesn't matter what

maybe an homage to Nikki Bella ;)

[Wizard.]

She's coming

https://static.independent.co.uk/s3fs-public/styles/article_small/public/thumbnails/image/2010/01/14/12/4908416.jpeg

[Shaun]

*mutters things indignantly about the NERVE to pester the former host for a song* :oh:

[Josiah.]

Kirk, there is enough time for you to make a song (as Greece)!

Shaun, why I have the nerve to pester you about having a song is because you've normally had your songs ready way before the contest; and having no song just 2 weeks before is very weird for you.

Also, RileyH; even if it isn't a parody or an original song, you could just come up with a simple poem if you're having writer's block.

[Tom4784]

I should have mine submitted by tomorrow, it's basically done but I just need to do the stage directions and such.

[Josiah.]

Now that I have Dezzy's song (with Shaun's coming soon, I hope)... we have essentially 7 confirmed songs out of 22.

[Nicky91]

[Mystic Mock]

Into the lazy slags.:dance:

well at this rate we are not gonna have much competition since most are too busy doing other stuff on here

[Josiah.]

I'm actually thinking about delaying this to June to compensate for the lack of songs...

[Josiah.]

UPDATE: Due to a lack of songs (and the possibility of people's inner saboteurs hating me), TiBB Eurovision 2018 is being delayed until 1 June 2018 and 2 June 2018.

[Nicky91]

smart decision i think

[Black Dagger]

Ok Josiah. Don't assume I'd want to be a judge after doing it the past 10 editions. BITCH.

[Babayaro.]

Anteater by Funky Funky


http://i.imgur.com/K6g20Kv.jpg


The video begins with Babayaro, Marsh and the anteater playing Bop It on the living room floor.

It is night time.

Babayaro and Marsh are dressed as American jocks for some reason. The anteater looks normal for its kind.

[Record scratch]
[Freeze frame]

Babayaro: yup that’s me, you’re probably wondering why Marsh is in my home…

*20 minutes earlier*

Marsh and Babayaro are doing jelly shots in the kitchen


Marsh: that’s some dank jelly bro
Babayaro: you can say that aga-
Marsh: holy **** is that an anteater?!
Babayaro: it’s probably a dog
Marsh: it’s so god damn big!
Babayaro: this situation is not likely. I mean, anteaters can be found in Central America and we live in Europe. They cannot even see in the dark
Marsh: it has a snout and a long tongue
Babayaro: ****


zzJoWR1Vu80


He’ll only come out at night
The mean and hungry shite
Disgusting, ew! I’ve seen him here before
Frothing and masturbating
Ooh, he’s ******** on you and ties you against the door
So many persuade the beast
With a wink you’re away for free
The demon is riled, a she-cat tamed by the purr of a jaguar
What does it matter
If you get rid of
You ain’t gonna get too far

(Oh here he comes)
Watch your toys he’ll sook them up
(Oh here he comes)
He’s an anteater

I wouldn’t if I were you
I know what he can do
He’s a friendly man, but he could unzip your curled ma-aan part
Might not even matter
Guard duty is here and the beast is in the hall

(Oh here he comes)
Watch your toys he’ll sook them up
(Oh here he comes)
He’s an anteater
(Oh here he comes)
Watch your toys he’ll sook them up
(Oh here he comes)
He’s an anteater

Nooooo,
Oh here he comes
Watch your toys he’ll sook them up
Woah here comes
(Watch out)
He’s an anteater
Oh here he comes
(He’s an anteater)
Ooh, he’ll sook them up
(Ooh here he comes)
Here he comes, he’s an anteater
(Oh here he comes)
(Watch out)
He only comes out to fight, ooh
(Oh here he comes)
Here he comes
He’s an anteater
(Oh here he comes)
(He’s an anteater)
The demon is riled, ooh
(Oh here he comes)
Here he comes
Watch your toys, watch your toys
(Oh here he comes)
Oh, watch them, watch them, watch them, watch them
(Oh here he comes)
Yeah yeah he’s an anteater
(Oh here he comes)
(He’s an anteater)
He’s frothing and masturbating


Aahhh :love:

[Babayaro.]

ugh, my entry this year is nowhere near as good as that

[Denver]

We love PG Tips

[Josiah.]

Okay, and with Lucas joining the judging panel and being a provisional participant (along with the 1 month delay to June); we have a full judging panel, and the maximum number of participants has been lifted.

[TwentyOneThrones]

wow so this can no longer be in my bday celebrations huh

[Nicky91]

bump, at least 1 or 2 June i can play, as we are on holiday June 5th

[Babayaro.]

Can you bring this forward by like a day please? :)

[Wizard.]

I will be re-submitting mine seeing as we have more time

[Niamh.]

I'm half way through my song but I'll miss the actual night because I'll be away in Scotland :hee:

We're going to have fun this year! Also, I'm genuinely excited about what you all think about the Melfest-style addition to the voting system.

I've had to revise the scoreboard a bit so you all can see the scores and points more clearly.

[Wizard.]

Sorry Josiah just realised this new date means I can’t judge as I’ll be away

[Babayaro.]

Can you bring this forward by like a day please? :)

??

[Epic.]

Am I allowed to back out? I just realized i'm not able to compete

[Josiah.]

Epic, you can back out (unfortunately).

[Shaun]

Submitted mine and I am honestly so proud of it. I expect wigs to fly!

[Josiah.]

So that's 8 songs (and 8 countries confirmed) out of 22 provisional (23 had Epic not pulled out).

[Wizard.]

I don’t think you should rate the success of the game depending the numbers Josiah, we all know it’s going to be great :)

[kirklancaster]

So that's 8 songs (and 8 countries confirmed) out of 22 provisional (23 had Epic not pulled out).

Mine will DEFINITELY be with you well before the deadline Josiah. Thank you for all your hard work in staging this. Shaun is a very hard act to follow but I'm sure it will be a great success.

(Can you ban Shaun's entry though to give the rest of us a chance? :hee:)

[Barry.]

Can’t wait to judge. PM the people who said they would play.

[Niamh.]

So that's 8 songs (and 8 countries confirmed) out of 22 provisional (23 had Epic not pulled out).I'll have mine in, I'm halfway through it

[kirklancaster]

Mine is in. A gentle love song which I have written and composed myself. I'm REALLY proud of it and hope it does well.

No doubt some will say it's too soppy. :bawling:

My song is a work in progress, by which I mean I opened a Word document at some point in the last two weeks

(but I have a concept, song that I'm parodying etc etc, so my entry will be in by next week if I manage to put some words to that blank Word document within that time frame)

[Nicky91]

my song is more 50/50 one part traditional ballad, and a bit hip hop/pop with the krumping what Waylon had in real eurovision

[kirklancaster]

If it’s not about our love for each other then I’m not interested

[Kazanne]

No doubt some will say it's too soppy. :bawling:

Good luck Kirk :wavey: all those partaking

[MB.]

If it’s not about our love for each other then I’m not interested

Yep, it'll be a feature-length parody of Call Me By Your Name in which I forget to reply to your messages for three months at a time, set against the backdrop of the Italian countryside

[kirklancaster]

Good luck Kirk :wavey: all those partaking

Thank you Kaz. :kiss:

[Denver]

Lebanon will be holding a national selection this weekend

[Nicky91]

i am perched for the Lebanese national final :love:

[Nicky91]

bump

[Nicky91]

keep working on those songs guys

[Josiah.]

You don't have much time left to submit (even though its looking like we'll be seeing some last minute entries), only SIX DAYS to go until our favourite time of the year!

[LukeB]

I will take Portugal

[Kazanne]

Fingers crossed for Livia too,you will do Israel proud.

[Josiah.]

As we are now officially 5 days away, I am going to tell you all that all of my hosting duties will be done in video form; as well as the other videos.

TLDR: Watch the videos when they show up. Please and thank you!

[Ross.]

:joker::joker:

[kirklancaster]

Also, this year; postcards will mean more as I am suggesting that you make a video and/or take pictures of you making the flag of the country you are participating as in creative ways (a la Eurovision 2014), so I can make postcards look very pretty and unique.

I'm not forcing you all to do this bit; I can just use bits and pieces of the actual ESC2014 postcards in their place.

I can't do this Josiah - I'm crap with all this kind of stuff. Sorry.

[Josiah.]

Kirk, you don't have to worry about that bit; since the postcards are basically done.

[kirklancaster]

Kirk, you don't have to worry about that bit; since the postcards are basically done.

OK, Josiah. I don't really understand :laugh: but Thanks.

[Wizard.]

The U.K. better be voted for fair fully I don’t want no tactical voting just cause you’re jealous that we have Harry and Meghan!

[Denver]

Pan and The Sexuals are the favourites to represent Lebanon but Emma Roid is a dark horse

[kirklancaster]

Pan and The Sexuals are the favourites to represent Lebanon but Emma Roid is a dark horse

:laugh:

[Denver]

After a galaxywide search and a national final watched by over 700 million people and a record 837 trillion votes the acct who will represent Lebanon with 51% of the vote is
Pan and The Sexuals ft Twink Slut

[Nicky91]

great news coming from Lebanon

[MB.]

The Estonian entry has been selected and will be in to dazzle you at some point today (the runners-up in the vote were Kelli from Liberty X and some guy called Erik Eriksson playing the spoons, in case you were wondering what the level of talent in Estonia this year was like)

[Josiah.]

With Livia's entry (hopefully) incoming soon, and the 3 entries I received from Amy, Adam, and MB; we have 14 countries confirmed out of 25 for Friday and Saturday.

[Nicky91]

bump

[Nicky91]

out of song reveals to come (hopefully) i am most looking forward to Luke's song for Portugal

T*'s song for Sweden, Livia's song for Israel

[Josiah.]

Tomorrow's the day!

[MB.]

I'm beginning to regret naming my entry Roseanne Is My Childhood Hero And Can Do No Wrong tbh

[RileyH]

:laugh2:

[LukeB]

i am most looking forward to Luke's song for Portugal



:love:

but prepare to be disappointed :worry:

[Morgan.]

What time tomorrow?

[montblanc]

perched for this!

[Josiah.]

Morgan, it'll be at 8pm BST like in previous contests.

[Tom4784]

Will be perched to catch up when I get back from work.

My song is woeful, I've been too busy with my other work to focus on writing a passable song.

[LukeB]

I'm not really pleased with mine :worry: It was good in my head but it's messy but i sent it in anyway to help Josiah out with numbers :p

[Babayaro.]

I will perch once I get to my hotel tomorrow, which will probably be like 6pm NY time, so 11pm here

[Josiah.]

We have 15 songs (thanks to Livia and LukeB) before tomorrow night's submission deadline of 5.30pm BST, which is amazing; considering that possible inner saboteurs are desperately trying to keep people like Lucas from submitting.
