Was really hoping they'd place in the top 5, but I guess the juries didn't agree (seriously though, 45pts?!). At least we in the Rest of the World gave them 10.

Oh well, the song still slaps!

​

Bosnia and Herzegovina and North Macedonia didn’t participate.
Slovenia and Croatia were eliminated in the first semi-final.
Serbia and Montenegro failed to qualify from the second.

Which means one thing:

We won’t be hearing a single word of South Slavic languages in the Grand Final — for the first time in over a decade.

Kind of surreal, isn’t it?

Hi! I'm a big fangirl of Käärijä's outfit on Eurovision, so I decided that I want to make his cosplay 🤟 I hope u will like it

Rooted for him since the Sanremo music festival. So as an artist, it just felt natural for me to draw him 🥹

For (almost) every year since 2016, I have made a drawing of the Dutch contestant alongside the acts that caught my eye the most that year. And the class of 2025 has served us kant flying microphones, dragons and Latvian fairies, but also boats, beverages and buff men. Well, c'est la vie, as they say in French! What is your favourite?

You can find more of my art over on Instagram, Bluesky and on my Reddit profile!

hi everyone!! i recently made some posters for my design page so i thought i'd share them here :) i usually never post on here, but i quite like this subreddit!

So, a lot of people seem very upset by the new Eurovision logo. I feel like it does have some very nice elements to it but just falls flat on a couple things. To clarify, I am not a graphic designer, but this is what I had in mind.

Firstly, the lower case "e" is an odd choice, especially considering the fact that it’s capitalised in the word "contest". So, I’ve capitalised the "e" (not something I thought I would be typing today lmao).

Secondly, the "song contest" maybe shouldn’t be in the same typeface and size as the word "Eurovision" as it’s what the contest is most commonly known as, and so should be the standout part of the logo. I generally couldn’t find a font that looked as good as Gotham, so hopefully bringing Gotham back in the logo will also make some fans happy.

Overall, I think the new logo is good on some things, but just needs a few tweaks. What do you think?

I made a post last month about my 2024 EuroDipsion party (where I had a bunch of dips and other food items that were puns related to the contestants/songs for that year) and I had a few folks ask me to post the photos from 2025....so here we go!

Thanks again to everyone who commented when I was crowdsourcing ideas for this year! I will be back to ask for help for next year.

Currently we have a tie between Greece and Italy for the longest ever top 10 streaks. Greece had theirs from 2004 to 2011, however had Aphrodisiac (Greece 2012) placed top 10, their streak would have extended to 10 years in a row. Italy’s streak is currently ongoing and has been since Occidentali’s Karma (Italy 2017). I think it’s pretty likely that, unless some disaster occurs in Sanremo 2026, Italy will extend their streak and break the record. In terms of the other powerhouses, Ukraine is currently ongoing its longest top 10 streaks, with theirs starting with Shum (Ukraine 2021), while Sweden’s current streak is not its longest. Sweden’s 6-year streak was from 2014 to 2019, and they currently have a streak of 4, coming top 10 every year since Hold Me Closer (Sweden 2022). The only other currently participating countries with ongoing streaks greater than 1 year are France, Switzerland, and Israel. Which countries do you think could get long streaks in the near future?

I host a ESC party every year. It mainly started as a way I can showcase my love of flags and cultures to my friends, but now the competition has definately reeled me in. Here's a few photos of my night.

Apologies if you feel that your country has a low effort dish. I was incredibly rushed for time, so sometimes buying store bought was easiest. If you have any dish suggestions for next year then please let me know!

It's been a while since I made some ESC fanart oof. Enjoy!

This is a custom visual identity that I have created, for a hypothetical 2026 contest held in Innsbruck, which I like to call 'Symphony In Bloom.'

The theme revolves around the edelweiss, a flower found in the alps and a national icon to Austria. Within the edelweiss is the Eurovision heart, representing the love and unity the contest stands for, as well as mountainous peaks to represent the towering alps situated around Innsbruck. The lines going across represent sheet music, tying into Austria's rich history with classical music.

Featured here is the main key art, the jury voting screen, and the stage ready.

Something I made with all of the LGBT+ performers in Eurovision thus far. If I missed anyone, or you don’t know who they are, let me know!

Happy Pride everyone!

Just a fanart I did of this year’s winner 🥰

After doing this last year, I have decided to see which words in the 2025 songs haven't been used before in Eurovision. It thankfully took considerably less time this year, but first some clarifications. All lyrics were taken from Eurovisionworld, so there may be cases of inconsistent romanisation. Spelling is what is being taken into account, so for example 'love' and 'amour' are counted as different words whereas 'chat' (English) and 'chat' (French) are considered the same word. Also I am aware that 'halu-u-u' etc. are not words, but for the sake of this post let's say that a word is a group of letters/numbers (including apostrophes/hyphens) separated by spaces. As with last year, there are many simple words which surprisingly hadn't been used yet.

So I just published my first ever game, and of course it is about KAJ and saunas... Xd

You can play it here (works only on computers): https://lazycat-gamez.itch.io/warm-up-the-sauna-with-kaj

I made this completely by myself, so it's quite simple and short, but it would mean a lot if you would check it out and let me know what you think <3
