This is an excellent time to mention my best friend The Eurovision Song Contest! It's the longest running international music contest show and it gets hundreds of millions of views.
Here's last year's crop of music videos. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmWYEDTNOGULUJYEhh-EUa32rEcHuNXO7
Croatia's Rim Tim Tagi Dim is a real banger. It's about the stress of moving to a richer country or city for work and losing your culture.
Italy's La Noia is amazing. Angelina Mango's live performances are stellar, and if she's not huge internationally in a few years I'll be super disappointed. Her new song (not part of the contest) Melodrama is exceptional too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqF0MSpPcj8
Switzerland sent Nemo, who became the first non-binary person to win the contest. It was said that if he could nail the vocals from the video in the live performance, there would be no stopping them. And they did! Amazing work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EO8cQpGNplc
I have so many recommendations, if anyone wants more!
Eurovision got in trouble last year for allowing Israel to join. Israel is in the middle east of Asia, not in Europe. The only thing European about Israel is that white people are committing a genocide to steal land.
More the hypocrisy for having denied entry to Russia while allowing Israel's to remain.
The actual terms for entering are being a part of the European Broadcasting Union; which includes Israel and Australia, despite the "European" in the name.
Israel being part of Eurovision isn't a new thing. The only difference is that they've been going mask off on their genocide aspirations lately.
Well, Australia is also in the Eurovision.
White people committing genocide to steal land. Checks out. That's the criteria for entry.
