I genuinely missed having a Eurovision this year.

I mean, it's awful, but in the best possible way.

As a black American, I don't see the appeal of Eurovision from the discussion here. Europe doesn't have a singular language. There's going to be inherent bias due to the language barriers.

Complaining about others choosing poorly is half the reason to watch Eurovision tbh.

The bias tends to be of a more political and geographical nature, to be honest.

Its more complaining that those filthy Baltic countries are just voting for each other. Also, thanks for the twelve points Sweden. Lots of love, sincerely Denmark.

Eurovision is magical and hearing songs in different languages is great. The most important things are catchiness with uptempo songs and vocal skill with ballads and uniqueness regardless of genre.

I can't relate to this. I really don't enjoy music I can't understand.

Yeah. I guess no one has undertaken the task quite simply. One of the responsible is the Swedish Eurovision delegation boss btw.

Why do you sayas a black American? Is there something about being AA that makes you uniquely suited to noticing Europeans speak different languages?

I do think the risk is high that the warmth and creativity wont be the same in the US version.
