This is really damn charming, holy shit. I do have to give it a point for making me at least smile every time I listen to it. And it does have quite lot of oomph to it, which is good, and a nice flow throughout which culminates into a very energetic breakdown at the end. It never leaves me bored. The song is just nice, you know? The overall style is outside of my personal tastes, so due to that this probably can't go higher from here.

Along with Ukraine, this is the only song that gives me winner vibes.

Putting aside my (well publicised on this thread) dislike of this song, I do struggle to see how it’s going to win in May.
In the final (which I expect it to make) it’s televote winning potential is going to be seriously hampered by the likes of Estonia, Finland and Croatia - who I all expect to qualify too.
They’ll all be fighting for the same voters due to their wacky/fun nature. Last year, Kaarijia really only had to fight with Let3 on that front and they both got decent televote points as a result - Kaarijia significantly better of course.
I just feel that Joost’s points will be a lot lower than expected as the vote among these four ‘fun’ entries is going to be spread out.
I also can’t see the juries supporting it that well. Kaarijia came fourth with them (and even though I liked Cha Cha Cha thought that was generous given how breathy he was in Liverpool in his performances). I struggle to see Joost doing that well.

The juries will probably give it a "Mama ŠČ" treatment. A similar type of joke entry.

Urban Dictionary: Stan
A reference to the Eminem song Stan. The song is about an overly obsessed fan (named Stan) who writes letters to eminem and ends up driving off a bridge with his pregnant wife, because Eminem didn't write him back. The terms means a very very overzealous and obsessed fan of a celebrity/band/cast...

I noticed that gays love using this word more than other folk lol. As in - "You stan Ariana Grande!"

There are other terms to use for showing affection or fanfare to a piece of work. I know a common oxymoron that is combined with a certain slut but we won't go there. "Stan" is easy and straightforward to use for anyone, doesn't has to be a contextual undertone when using it.

I thought "this will do fine".
After that live performance... yeah, this might win.

The very first listen it shot up into my top.
It's now comfortably in my top 3, threatening 2nd spot.
Just like last year when I had my fav standing no chance (Latvia) I was rooting for Finland to win.
This time even though it's not my #1 (France is), I'll be rooting for this all the way!
one of the easiest DOUZE POINTS from me this year.
