Seeing two of your fave singers (one from halfway around the world) just down the road from home is such a privilege, what a great night 💃

(hearing Don't Break Me live, my fave from 2020, may have changed me forever)

Jury and tele breakdowns as well for the stats fans - I think FR jury and SE televote is on lock, it's more are there the 'real world' votes still coming for a couple of countries, or will they go elsewhere (namely FI?)

One hour to go - here she is, my predictions based on full jury and televote estimations

This is going to be close...

A diff Saturday this year as with one thing and another I'm flying solo, but that doesn't stop a Eurovision buffet from happening!

Real talk, I remember Eurovision tea so fondly from being little, even more vividly than some of my early shows, so until I'm old(er) and grey(er) I'll be doing these ❤️

I'm not one to usually pull from Tiktok but this essentially confirms my fears re: Australia and the muted audience - songs like Finland, Malta, Albania and Sweden *will* be impacted by a quieter-seeming crowd now that the locals are going to be the bulk of the audience

🎉🎉🎉

She's komming

Tonight's prediction (a disclaimer that these were worked using points predictions pre-rehearsals)

I don't want to over-correct too much as I still think 🇨🇿 will sneak through despite the 🇧🇪 comparisons being made

Fun fact - I have at least 2 ties on points, and 2 countries only separated by 1 point

8/10 would normally be a fair result but that Belgium miss is going to haunt me for a long time #Eurovision

Time to share my predictions for tonight... my disclaimer is that I did this pre-rehearsal (the blank column is exact point predictions which I'll share after the full results are out) so before you choke on your chosen beverage, that might explain some questionable choices here

(I know we're only on Song 2 but still) #Söngvakeppnin

#EestiLaul

I think I'll need a few business days to decide how I feel about getting this kind of Lauro song and not the other kind #Sanremo2025

Ah yes, the crossover we all anticipated this season...

Happy Sanremo Monday (aka the last time I'll get a full night's sleep this week) 🇮🇹🎉

Can you believe that Dopamine Overdose was only my 10th listened to song this year....?

(yes I like Sanremo a lot)
