Weird that you can't vote as a german until the second semifnal. What's the reason for that?

Big five + Winner from last year can only vote in one of the semifinals each to balance the voting

 

[oti]

We get it Vienna. You're beautiful and all.

 

[vitacola]

Just went through the Semi-Final 1 playlist on YouTube.
The only songs I kinda liked were from Estonia and Finland.

The small Hungarian chick is cute though ...

And I think the invitation of Australia is just a joke on the Austria/Australia confusion. It must.

 

[addik]

Fuck it. I have work early in the morning (It's 4:30 am here. Eurovision started at 3 am). I didn't want to watch because of work and because I usually just watch the finals, but my insomnia kicked in. When I tuned in, most of the entrees have performed.

Rooting for Estonia though. The song is amazing, but I hope they were able to bring the same A-game in their staging.

 

[Tugatrix]

No, Greece. Remember 2004?

Spoiler

Remember?

That make want to vole less on you guys

 

[robotrock]

man i can't believe they actually didn't use animals

 

[ShaggsMagoo]

Pretty cool to use last years songs for this bit.

 

[galvenize]

For some reason I feel like Eurovision happens every 6 months.

The Belgian song is pretty sick.

 

[DECK'ARD]

I still have THUNDER HA HA in my head.

Help.

 

[Auron_Kale]

This pet skit... wtf am I watching?

 

[Jasup]

man i can't believe they actually didn't use animals

They're not real animals? But they seem legit

 

[FortuneFaded]

The hosts are just awful.

I didn't even know that Arabella Kiesbauer is still on TV since the 90's.

If the UK hosted, we would have Graham Norton as host. It needs to happen.

 

[Rapstah]

Wow, this really makes me want to Travel to Vienna™.

There is of course the Winter Eurovision

Well, alright then. Thanks for the info, it's my first time with a eurovision semifinal.

 

[pinkurocket]

Sweden's show in 2012 was the best with humorous filler footage.

 

[MicH]

The fact that they decided that one of the animals had to be a horse is hilarious. Even if it isn't a real horse

 

[Tugatrix]

Good I can take my horse to Vienna Towers great

 

[Alessandro]

Keep it real guys

 

[FunkyDealer]

Eurovision, sponsored by Luminous Engine.

 

[Zeknurn]

The hosts are exceptionally bad this year.

 

[Red Arremer]

The hosts are exceptionally bad this year.

The hosts are exceptionally bad every year. It's part of Eurovision.

 

[Rapstah]

The hosts are exceptionally bad this year.

Maybe they're doing the thing where they put the bad hosts on the semifinals?

 

[snoopeasystreet]

What's the name of that whistling song that's playing during the cat/dog/horse segment? Is it from a previous eurovision?

Sounds familiar.

 

[Kabouter]

What's the name of that whistling song that's playing during the cat/dog/horse segment? Is it from a previous eurovision?

Yeah, I think it was Switzerland last year.

 

[Spaced Harrier]

Sweden's show in 2012 was the best with humorous filler footage.

Yep Petra Merde or whatever was the best presenter that Eurovision has had. Too.

Or maybe she was Danish.

Also Sweden was 13 I think.

 

[derFeef]

Maybe they're doing the thing where they put the bad hosts on the semifinals?

nah, we just don't have good TV hosts.

Sebalter - Hunter of Stars
Switzerland's entry of last year.

Oh yea true, Loreen won in 2012 so their show was 2013. Got mixed up there.

 

[show me your skeleton]

i know we've only seen half the entries so far but it all feels a little restrained this year.

 

[oti]

I worked for an Austrian video game print magazine and went the Vienna to visit my colleagues. It's a very beautiful city indeed.

Now vote for Greece.

 

[Red Arremer]

All 3 pet segments had different Eurovision songs. The cat's was Nina Zilli (Italy last year or the year before).

 

[Spaced Harrier]

UK nil points eh...?

 

[Aiii]

Albania is absolute dogshit.

 

[Tregard]

The lady who hosted from Sweden was incredible

 

[ShaggsMagoo]

All 3 pet segments had different Eurovision songs. The cat's was Nina Zilli (Italy last year or the year before).

I know for a fact I heard Malta, Switzerland, and Germany. There were more though.

 

[evilpigking]

Realized what the Belarus guy reminded me of

 

[Spaced Harrier]

The lady who hosted from Sweden was incredible

Yeah agreed she was great.

 

[Spyware]

Yep Peter Merde or whatever was the best presenter that Eurovision has had. Too.

Or maybe she was Danish.

Petra Mede, and she's a swede. I wonder if she'll be the host again if we win again. Seems many love her (according to reactions from the anniversary thing too).

 

[NumberThree]

Sweden's show in 2012 was the best with humorous filler footage.

Swedes know what's up, a few years ago they had Dolph fucking Lundgren host the competition in which the Eurovision participant is decided.

[vitacola]

nah, we just don't have good TV hosts.

But, but, but ... Mirjam Weichselbraun!

 

[oti]

Norway was also a really great host. Funny hosts, the Euro flashmob, Lena winning. Great ESC all around.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

And voting is finished.

 

[Envelope]

hoping georgia makes it just because of dat costume

 

[TM94]

"How are you?"

"Sexy as always"

Ahmad on a higher level.

 

[Aiii]

Love me some Falco

 

[Spaced Harrier]

Yeah Scandinavia is (not so) secret best europe.

 

[derFeef]

But, but, but ... Mirjam Weichselbraun!

You funny.

 

[oti]

Who won the ESC for Astria first?
Udo Jürgens.
What is Jürgens most popular song?
Griechischer Wein.

-> Greece will win


This VO is soulless.

 

[Jasup]

Bring on the Edelweiss and we'll be happy

 

[Kurtofan]
