regarding the genocide song contest:

  • various past eurovision contestants are campaigning for the removal of israel and some national finalists are now choosing to boycott. olly alexander, who will rep the uk, condemned the palestinian genocide and was subsequently attacked by israeli media (in a blatant rule violation the ebu did nothing about)
  • slovenian broadcaster rtvslo is purportedly trying to negotiate the removal of israel
  • 1000 artists from host country sweden are preparing to send an open letter to the ebu to ban israel; the swedish left wing has also called for israel to be removed immediately
  • iceland is officially threatening to boycott eurovision pending the removal of israel
  • word on the street is that if iceland does compete, it will send palestinian artist bashar murad who is openly anti-israel and has collabed with previous icelandic reps hatari, aka the guys who did this back in 2019
  • iceland is now leading in the odds whereas israel has been steadily dropping, suggesting that the bookies are aware israel is becoming increasingly unpopular
  • lastly, in a move so ridiculous i'm beginning to suspect eurovision is a figment of our collective imagination, israel is seemingly gearing up to enter eden golan, a moscow-based russian singer. while russia is still banned for terrorism.

if you're european: please contact your participating broadcaster and demand for the removal of israel, or try to contact your nation's selected artist to put pressure on the broadcaster. if you're swedish, please try contacting svt or authorities with security concerns regarding the inclusion of israel. if israel does enter eden golan, complain about her selection and ties to russia. and absolutely DO NOT vote on, watch or promote this show if israel does end up competing.

Here is a document with contacts for all participating broadcasters, artists and sponsors, including a template email translated to 20+ languages

Can we implement a rule for next year that everyone has to sing in the native language of their country? I'm so sick of everyone just singing English

Give me DRAMA Give me CULTURE

GIVE. ME. FUN.

music isn't better or worse just because it's in a native language, I'm so over seeing this shitty fucking take all over tumblr every single year. as of right now everyone is free to choose whichever language they want, without any limitations on where that language happens to come from. it means many countries are choosing to send songs in english (the inofficial language of international pop music), but we've also gotten some unexpected choices: songs in italian from estonia and latvia, songs in french from austria and sweden, a little bit of arabic from italy, sranan tongo from the netherlands, swahili from norway, songs in completely made up languages from belgium on two different occasions...let's not forget the songs that combine a ton of different languages in one song, like romania 2007 and bulgaria 2012.

with a rule about native languages, you're taking away the opportunity to do these kinds of unexpected choices, but maybe that's what you people want?

what is a native language anyway? let's say that a singer's native language is arabic, but they live in a european country where arabic isn't any kind of official language. would they be allowed to represent their own culture in eurovision by singing in arabic, or would they be forced to only use the majority language of the country they happen to live in? accuse me of overthinking this all you want, but if you want a language rule, you're going to have to answer that question.

when we're talking about culture, do we mean the culture of the artist or the culture of the country as a whole? if we're only allowing the official/majority language of the country, minority and immigrant cultures and languages are deemed worthless in the context of eurovision. but maybe that's what you people want?

with a language rule, we would inevitably segregate the continent into separate little cultural boxes. but again, maybe that's what you people want. let's have a eurovision where artists have to put the culture of their country, however we're supposed to define that, before their own personal creative choices. again, maybe that's what you people want?
