My fave quote from Eurovision was one I read on DR about the mentality of English people when it came to Eurovision.
I'm too lazy to translate, so here it is
- Hos mange briter ligger der stadig en forestilling om, at de har et moralsk krav på at vinde, fordi det var dem, der skabte The Beatles, David Bowie og Queen. De er en mægtig musiknation, og derfor burde de også vinde Eurovision, mener mange. Problemet er bare, at de jo ikke sender The Beatles og Elton John til Eurovision, vel? Men så kan man altid bortforklare sig med, at det hele er politisk, siger hun.
And I honestly think that's true. This is not specifically bout this year, but generally
mm i think the fact that they've been going to finals automatically kinda ads to that entitlement thing, and then they never get better cause theyre gonna be in the finals anyways, meanwhile other countries have to send something rly good to get there
That too! Germany is also starting to suffer from it.
