It’s time for one of the biggest music competitions in the world, the Eurovision 2018! After watching their videos, we are happy to bring you our 10 top pics. Oh, that was a lot. What is wrong if you have never heard of this or watched it? Get to it right now. This is a 60-year-old competition that started after World War 2 to unite war-torn Europe. Each country sends a representative from all over Europe. Also, Israel and Australia participate. We are big fans of this competition because of how campy and silly it can be, originally from Europe. The Eurovision competition, for the first time, was aired in the USA in 2017 on Logo, and it was back again in 2018. In the past, most songs were in English, but this year, there are many more songs in their native language.
You can watch all 43 entries on their main Eurovision Song Contest Youtube Channel.
Our Eurovision Top 10
Netta – TOY from Israe (WINNER)l
Is it a chicken song? Not sure, but it starts that way and then morphs into a mix of pop and other styles. I love the rhythm, lyrics, and backup dancers. Also, she is taking her Pikachu home! It’s by far our favorite song of the Eurovision 2018
Saara Aalto – Monsters from Finland
The gayness is strong. WE LOVE IT! One of our top picks of the year for sure. I love her strong vocals and the randomness of the backup dancers. This is what Eurovision is all about, the random, the out there, and we have no idea, but give us more.
Eugent Bushpepa – Mall from Albania
The melody is beautiful, we may not know what the song is about, but it is delightful. All the choreography and movements match its theme and feel so well.
Rasmussen – Higher Ground from Denmark
It’s the sexy modern Vikings! The song is grand and bigger than life, which we can enjoy.
DoReDos – My Lucky Day from Moldova
This song gives us a warm and sunny feeling. Sometimes you don’t need random and want sweetness.
ZiBBZ – Stones from Switzerland
This song captured our ears because of how different the melody and lyrics are from the rest. While it changes from low to high, it’s different from the rest of the competition.
Elina Nechayeva – La Forza from Estonia
OMG, that dress!!!! The stage is the dress. She wins already just on that. Fine, it’s not just her dress but that fantastic voice. Another song, we are not that sure what it is about. We could google it, but why when it sounds so beautiful and emotional? You don’t always need to understand the words to feel the song.
Vanja Radovanovic – Inje from Montenegro
2018 is the year of more native languages over English in Eurovision. Another song that we are not sure what it means, but it sounds very emotional.
Mikolas Josef – Lie To Me from Czech Republic
We are always fans of cute boys! This song has a great rhythm and beats—very much a bad boy of the 1950s USA.
Ryan O’Shaughnessy – Together from Ireland
Eurovision is very gay, one of many reasons we love it. So we are happy when it’s a song about gay love. YAY!!!!!!
