Australia AUSTRALIA 2022 - Sheldon Riley - Not The Same

[escYOUnited]

I was told at six years old
They'd avoid me if my heart was cold
Found it hard to talk and speak my mind
They'd never like the things that I would like

'Cause you're told to play, but you're not the same
As the other kids playing the same game
Tried to jump on in, but they push away
So far away

I'm not the same, no
I'm not the same, no

Years go by, I tried and tried
My father asked if today I smiled
I said, "Yes I did", but that's a lie
Oh, I always tell those lies

And you run and hide, hide the break inside
Do you realise that the light shines bright?
Through those, oh, who broke inside

I'm not the same, no
I'm not the same, no
I'm not the same, no
I'm not the same, no

'Cause you never want to be a kind of person
You can work it for those ones who cannot word it
Because you've been the kind of person who felt this pain
Yeah, I felt this pain

So you're gonna leave the pain and find another way to make yourself another game
Maybe one for all to play
'Cause it's not just me who's not the same
We are not the same

I'm not the same, no
We are not the same, no
We are not the same, no
We are not the same, no​

Andrew is so good to look at. I mean those guns. But that is a whole lotta nothing. He sounds good, but the dancers and him are so disconnected. He is like Imri-lite.

Now Sheldon with his weird mask is around the corner. Let's see ...

 

[Kaz]

Will any of you guys believe me when I say that the green room reporter is actually married (to a woman) with kids

 

[shameless]

meh...the use of spanish was really unnecessary here.

Just learned that Andrew Lambrou is of Greek Cypriot descent.

Also, he's NOT DANCING TO A DANCE SONG?...

That takes talent, that man has obviously been carried through life based on his looks. It just shows.

 

[Mainshow]

"Fabulosity" is a word? OO xD

Next thing you're gonna tell me, he's stone cold sober and not been consuming a crate of energy drinks

Electrify as well as Running suck big time.

Good looks and muscles can`t save utterly horrendous and boring songs

Sadly, they're like copies of each other. It's even more uncanny when we compare their pictures.

SHELDOOOOOOOON

 

[Loindici]

What's up with Sheldon and all of these Bjork masks?

 

[Mainshow]

All 5 songs so far won´t survive a semi in May.

Charley might me getting some jury points but no... these performances and songs so far don´t go anywhere.

I mean if Phillip Schofield did that, I am not surprised if he will come out in the later life.

 

[Lance Esgard]

Where would Australia Decides be without at least crazy costume (Kate Miller-Heidke, Montaigne)?

 

[shameless]

When I see this act I have to think of Jamie-Lee: Will not work on first sight. People are always turned off by too much artistry (especially when the song doesn't match up).

EDIT: But best one so far.

 

[Loindici]

BTW since Conchita was mentioned, learning that Tom Neuwirth (Conchita) is a PLHIV is somehow a beautiful revelation.

 

[I bims]

Hopefully Sheldon sounds better today...

 

[gingerale]

And why is he the favorite?

 

[HayashiM]

Sheldon sounds epic. Clearly the best for now.

 

[Lance Esgard]

The best I've heard so far tonight.

 

[Looren]

I cried
