[ESC United Mod Team]

It's quite ironic that the homeland of Linus Torvalds sends a windows95man.

So windows95man should be rename himself as Linuxman?

It sounds better.
And penguins on the t-shirt!

 

[lasse braun]

26! - that is not sparta,that is .

 

[Chorizo]

Will this delightful piece of Eurovision camp meet the approval of the juries? I can't wait to find out! 8 points.

 

[jatojo]

The mom test: She likes this one. Although it's a crazy song in many ways, it does have a quite clear structure with verse and chorus.

I'm curious if that might actually pass by the rules, since Linux is technically not a commercial brand... or is it?!?

 

[ESC94]

Sorry, but I had to downgrade it from to , I was waaay to kind to this assault to good taste.

 

[Datura]

They totally fucked up the camera angles, such a shame it kind of ruins the joke (for me, yes i find this funny)

 

[Judas]

I am so so glad that they've made it despite the odds. I love the humor in the performance. I just find it a bit disturbing that Windows95man steals all the thunder and leaves Henri in the dark even though he is the one actually carrying the song, while Windows95man is the one carrying the performance.

 

[GermanBango]

And this is why we need juries.

 

[simonPL]

Absolutely disgusting and embarrassing performance. Probably the worst Eurovision thing ever.

 

[Fluke]

Everything was on point. I thought maybe it would be a little stiff and seem less funny because of the increased strain and pressure of performing in the ESC, like less experienced artists often do (Remember Denmarks Fyr & Flamme? The ESC perfomance just didn't feel right...) but it actually seemed even funnier than in the NF performance, and Henri's vocals were perfect.

I think this is really underrated, a top 5 finish is totally possible, and probably higher than the Netherlands which i don't get why it's rated so high.

And this is why we need juries.

Right.... to bring this to the top!

 

[Zeus]

I hate this but it's getting 100+ points from the televotes right?

 

[Ana Raquel]

did someone make a solo henri version? my friend is asking

 

[goncalovieira]

Disgusting. I am sorry.

 

[Sammy]

I was kinda enjoying this. I mean the „no pants“-joke didn’t work through the entirety of the act but I had a good time watching it. Glad to see it once again before it will sink into oblivion.

 

[Uto]

It's a dumb joke entry done well. Not my cup of tea, but yeah it's fine if this makes up the numbers in the final. Not every song needs to be serious.

 

[Magimixer]

I can't say anything positive about this "song". I don't find it even mildly amusing and the performance didn't seem fun or energetic during the semi-final.
People might vote for it though…

 

[Mainshow]

We've seen small countries, ballads and the best singers qualify and diaspora fail based on televoting alone but sure, there's one silly, fun entry sailing through and that's an "argument" to get the juries on board who vote upside down, vote fan favourites down, focus on English songs and highly vote politcally as well.
This semi proved that the current system perfectly works.

We've had "silly fun entries" with great performances sailing through with a 50/50 system as well (Romanian vampire, Yodel It say hello, "Boom boom party for everybody grannies").

One fun entry doesn't take away the fact that only quality entries and memorable performances qualified today.

Finland is fun, just enjoy the performance on Saturday and forget about the song's existence afterwards
