That Eurovision Archive

Hello again,

As mentioned in the January post which presaged the relaunch of That Music List, watching and writing about the Eurovision Song Contest was at least one thing I continued to keep on top of during the blog's hiatus. 

However, those thoughts were mostly shared either just among Facebook friends, or else with visitors of the lounge of two largely sports (and by extension sports betting) oriented fora with controlled access.  As such, more of you will have missed these at the time than saw them.  

The posts which I have now shared on That Music List seek to redress that, accepting of course that they likely enjoy mostly curiosity status only, concerning as they do events now past.

The quantity of content on each renewal of Eurovision covered depends on what I've been able to salvage from elsewhere (one of the aforementioned two fora no longer exists), how much time to write I had around each contest, and also to an extent how interesting or not I found each contest!

Pretty much all of the words I committed to print at the time I stand by, the most glaring exception being those for the 2025 Estonia entry, which I admit I got completely wrong (and have annotated in teacher's bold red pen accordingly).  See what you agree or disagree with.  See how many songs you can actually remember!

J xx
