The Optimistic Authour

People keep talking about Finland being robbed but “I’m being possessed by the ghost of Edgar Allan Poe and he’s not contributing to the rent” definitely deserved to place higher on the scoreboard than it did.

Tributes to my favourite entries for

(from top to bottom; left to right) - Portugal: 'Ai Coração' by Mimicat - Sweden: 'Tattoo' by Loreen - Czechia: 'My Sister's Crown' by Vesna - Moldova: 'Soarele şi Luna' by Pasha Parfeni - Finland: 'Cha Cha Cha' by Käärijä

And for my top favourite: AUSTRIA with 'Who The Hell Is Edgar?' by Teya & Salena.

Some honourable mentions: - Slovenia: 'Carpe Diem' by Joker Out - France: 'Évidemment' by La Zarra - Denmark: 'Breaking My Heart' by Reiley (sad that it didn't qualify) - Belgium: 'Because Of You' by Gustaph

I do sometimes like to check out the songs before Eurovision but the beauty in raw dogging this competition is just unexpectedly hearing a dance track about Edgar Allan Poe
