shit BL says
Once and always and nevermore.
Lordi was a million years ago, we've had Hatari since then if literally nothing else. Personally I love pop music and that's why I always win here.
There were some cool songs to remember. I especially enjoy the Italian entries
Not necessarily the last one, but in general they are good.

epic sax man has a special place in my heart not just because it is the epic sax man, but because a popular brasilian minecraft youtuber used it as one of his intros and that's how I got to know it

Italy this year is a snorefest, extra disappointing since one of the two dudes had an absolute bop in 2019.
My faves so far are France, Norway (gay furry extravaganza), Albania, Serbia, Spain.
I just booked a hotel room for my first post Covid anime convention. Now to spend the next four months paranoid that there's going to be another surge that makes me cancel everything last minute and I lose all that cash.

tbh I never look at the entries except ours before the Eurovision happens, you need the wtf factor and spontaneous ranking of entries.
Social media does kind of ruin that but its not like I'm invested enough to care THAT much.

Cringely I've become an enthusiast so I must come prepared. And honestly the hype buildup is kinda fun to follow.
we made it a joke at our yearly eurovision group watch to call one of our friends the stats guy because he gave out some random fact to like 1 or 2 entries
next year he came with a notepad with a fact for every entrant
this is the power of watching it with nerds

I prefer to be surprised in the finale
The Italian rapper had a great song back then, but the rest of his work wasn't that interesting to me. So I hope his entry this year is good too. In the same year was that one albanian woman singing for Cyprus or so? fine summer song IMO.
My best friend is Albanian and I was on vacation in Kosovo two times. the country is dear to me so I hope their entry gets good recognition.

regarding albania, is shiqptare pride an offensive term? I remember a very odd guy (that now exclusively uses IRC after getting knobbed in the bollocks with a fear boulder the size of mars following the rumors of microsoft's purchase of discord) that used to say it as an in joke.

Albanians or rather the whole Balcan is complicated.
But they are pretty patriotic. Very much so.
Further talk would become too political. And political Balcan talks are...peak Twitter.

Related terms are offensive pejoratives to refer to Albanian people in the rest of the Balkans, at least the ex-yu part that I have knowledge of. I guess it's context-dependant and it's best to stick to just using 'albanians' and 'albania' if you're not sure, erring on the side of caution is better since the slavic balkans can be pretty terrible to albanians for no damned reason. However within the actual albanian language afaik that's the term used for the language, country and people.
The balkans are a place for sure.
Meh, infighting, racism, virtually no political autocontrol virtue of being a forever proxy and overall inacessibility are nothing that new to me. I'm latin american.

Spoiler:
To add my perspective on it, I actually didn't know it was a word used to refer to Albanians since I rarely, if ever, heard it used (because thankfully I grew up around semi-decent people), but the few times I've heard it used weren't in positive connotation, so I thought it was just a regular insult.
So I guess if actual Albanians use it it's okay, but outside...well you know...less ok
I've seen Macedonian Albanians who consider it offensive, never seen one from Kosovo or Albania do so, but this is anecdotal.
when i asked my colleague at the store where she's from she just went "im shqiptar" lmao

I have no idea what that is. Some pirates hiding more malicious code in downloads than normal?
