apparently Montenegro's RTCG might announce their return to the contest in only matter of weeks, according to one montenegrin user in a croatian eurovision forum

some predictions

Sweden: a generic lifeless plastic pop trash in english
Norway: a outdated but gaybait pop trash song in english
Denmark: returning to english obviously because of the basic fandom
Bulgaria: english song because of the basic fandom
Cyprus: english song since the fandom are too racist
Greece: another outdated english pop song
Netherlands: another country ballad in english

can rather be called englishvision thx to the stupid fandom :idc:

ooh something what makes me happy

https://scontent.fdub5-1.fna.fbcdn.n...09&oe=618A6FA0

this is from tuesday, so we will know the FiK60 (Albania's NF) full list of participants tomorrow

i hope for the return of fun act ICON Kozma Dushi, nje kafe is still such a guilty pleasure for me

his recent new song of this year, duet with a Eranda Libohova

Youtube video

out of those rumoured, i am looking forward to Elhaida Dani's comeback, and of course my dutch bias but Alban Ramosaj :flutter:

hope for another year we get no international interval act

italy has a divine music culture of its own honestly

few of its past entries pls

Al Bano, Gabbani, Il Volo + also Eros Ramazzotti, Andrea Bocelli

and of course the titleholders Maneskin with new work hopefully

one act who i'd love to see from Czech Republic is this popband MIRAI

Youtube video

there is a rumour of Mikolas Josef (CZESC2018 entry) having submitted a song for their NF but i don't know if i would want him back so soon, i rather want someone else who we haven't seen on the esc stage now

how many countries do we think will take part next year?

i think either 41 or 42 and i hope the latter with Turkey's grand comeback after 10 years absence, i hope so i've missed them so so much

yup it'll be 40+ (but not sure which number yet)

Youtube video

participating nations reveal in 8 minutes from now

eurovision is dead to me :idc:

no turkey, no point of me watching it, with so little countries taking part :idc:

some new record label for UK's entry? which i never ever heard of

Dua Lipa wanting the double zero :laugh3: :laugh3:

no more Milanov and team for Bulgaria's entries to come

might be a good thing yes i am controversial but maybe lesser overhype is better so more focus is on the songs, rather than the act

hoping for fab quality chalga from them that would be divine

Montenegro going for internal selection is a wise choice i think, hoping for a nice song in montenegrin either, since 2014, 2015 they were in own language and had success with
