soul singer Jeangu Macrooy for us Netherlands (host artist) at esc2020

[Nicky91]

[Black Dagger]

Really excited for him. Listened to his work last night when he got rumoured. Be interesting to see if he goes soul ballad or soul upbeat. He can do both.

we're on the same page for once

i hope soul upbeat, since that has some bit of reggae/funk influences, which isn't heard that much at eurovision

[Nicky91]

Hungary (who aren't in this years esc) have still got A Dal more now to work on their music scene, to be more modernized, also to find more younger talented artists


Montenegro, and there are no financial troubles, no debts but they withdrew just to work on some extra budget, not to become like a Bosnia & Herzegovina so it was more a smart choice out of pre-caution, they will broadcast the contest as usual on their normal channel, both semi's and final

Hungary though will broadcast esc2020 on one of their children's channels to attract more hungarian youth for eurovision, let them get inspired to become musicians etc

[Nicky91]

http://esctoday.com/178404/eurovisio...-final-wanted/

plans for a live orchestra of young musicians in the grand final

[Headie]

Get her signed up immediately!

[Jay28jay2]

PLEASE

[Beastie]

This could be Rotterdam or anywhere, Liverpool or Rome.

[Nicky91]

so Liverpool is the next host city, so UK has won eurovision 2020

[Nicky91]

but all seriousness, UK will never give us youth or modern music

[Nicky91]

Norway has good changes in melodi grand prix as we knew, semi's from entire country so eastern, Southern, western, central


now denmark does the same thing for their national final, 3 semi finals with 3 artists (all from the 9 different regions)


and also Romania is keeping more secrecy, they only teased they are doing something never been done before in any national final (so the NF is there but more information they won't tell us for now, also the artists are probably found behind closed doors either)


and we get some more Australia decides entry releases today

[Nicky91]

http://twitter.com/escxtra/status/1217885864484835328

NO USA in eurovision pls, they'll ruin our show like america ruins everything

with their overfabricated, too commercial trash music
