Magnificent work, not just from Verka but all six performers on stage. Amazing 1940s/space-age costumes. Number 69 on Verka's back. Political protest hidden under ostensibly nonsensical lyrics. A tune that never leaves your head after you've heard it once. Not one key change but two. And watch Verka right at the end, transforming the Eurovision heart logo into a pelvic thrust. There really aren't enough superlatives for this.
I am worried - I think I have found my "guilty pleasure" - Timmy Mallet in drag and a couple of camp soldiers dressed in Bacofoil... Must book an appointment with my therapist...
i was completely clueless abt eurovision but after a tons of link in that chapter of bnha fic when shinsou said a eurovision legend i just KNEW it was this song.
I have a lot to learn about those dance moves... Could be handy some day. .... or not. Anyways, I can not stop listening to this song and yet worse I can't get my eyes off the epic dancing moves.

Seriously? This was a great fun entry, and personally I feel Finland deserved the win so much more (although they landed the well deserved win the year prior), but the entry that did win, Molitva, was brilliant and was totally worthy of being the winning entry.
