I kind of expected it tbh, especially with our (for now) plan to just work towards herd immunity being risky already.

I figured as much. There was a part of me hoping they'd do perform from home of some kind but there's dozens of production staff to support 5 people dancing in front of a camera so it probably never really had a chance.

There could be an online vote to see which of the songs all the Eurovision nerds thought was best anyway.

I like the Icelandic entry (it's about the singer's small daughter, so when he sings "baby", he's talking about an actual baby, and I like that :v:), but I'm into the Lithuanian entry too.

That Finnish guy needs to shave off his lip caterpillar if you ask me.

Anyway, an alternative Eurovision?

quote:

Although the format has yet to be decided, they stressed the programme would not be a competition.

However, the show will "honour the songs and artists" that were due to take part of the contest this May.

quote:

Georgia, the Netherlands, Spain and Azerbaijan have already confirmed their artists will return next year. There has been no indication on whether the UK's entrant, James Newman, will get a second chance.

Here's links to the entries from Georgia, the Netherlands, Spain, Azerbaijan and the UK if you want to see what all those artists are like.

You’re missing a very important quote:

quote:

"With that in mind," organisers said, "this year's songs will not be eligible to compete when the contest returns."

Nah. That's integral to his 'amis'-look. I can imagine him riding his 90's Corolla with biggest bass he can afford inside the trunk releasing the sweet sound of "UNTS UNTS UNTS".

BBC Eurovision replacement show to air in May

quote:

Eurovision: Come Together to be hosted by Graham Norton
The new show will air on May 16, the same day planned for this year’s Grand Final.

It is set to feature “classic” Eurovision performances and showcase material from Eurovision 2020.

On both scores, the press release is vague, but it does specify UK Eurovision 2020 act James Newman will feature.

Not a contest, but British viewers may be able to see Montaigne, which should please Krazyface a tiny bit :shobon:
