Think About Eurovision

In this episode we speak German, English and French (also Canadian and Raccoon), admire some floristry and we float the simply ludicrous notion that juries don’t have the musical knowledge to appreciate music outside of their own specialist interest. I know, who’da thunk it?

n this week’s DNQ Files Kris treats a post-Covid Chrissy to an easy going song, perfect for somebody currently convalescing… sorry, I mean he goes out of his way to traumatise her! 

Following Matti finding himself merely whelmed, we look at something that is definitely not going to have that effect on Chrissy.

This episode features a haunted puppet.

In this week’s DNQ Files we look at a song that both qualified for Eurovision, and didn’t go to Eurovision at all, as we are dashed upon the rocks, listening to Maruv’s Siren Song for Ukraine in 2019

Firstly, I’d like to apologise for the shocking audio quality from my end - for some reason our online recording software decided to switch my default microphone to the inline one on my headphones. 

Now that’s out of the way, in this week’s DNQ files, we take a look at two songs that could have replaced Coco with Bad Old Days in Eurovision 1978, starting with a band formerly known as The Bicycle Turds, and Britain’s answer to The Three Degrees.

In this week’s episode, Kris flubs his introduction, Matti has a religious revelation and we indulge in a light spot of schadenfreude, as we take a look at two songs that failed to qualify for the 2007 Eurovision Song Contest... could the UK have done better in 2007? Ooh, it's such a mystery.... *wryly looks to camera*

In this episode the trio *finally* bring you the episode we’ve been looking forward to for the past couple of months, and absolutely haven’t stalled on recording, 1962. We discuss how much we can remember 16 songs (spoiler, not much), Kris provides health and safety advice for around the home and we suggest that Ronnie Carrol was availing himself of the services of call girls. So, there’s that.  Happy 100th Episode (sorry)
