So you don't want singers to show their personal stories by their artistry in Eurovision? I love bubblegum pop but it can't be sun and dance everyday, especially in an invaded country.
It doesn't have to be sun and dance, it can be misery but non-political misery.
If people like this song musically then I'm cool with that, to me it has some very good qualities and some bad ones, hence why I rank it about middle-of-the-road. My problem is that it is part of the anti-Russia bandwagon and suits the Eurogays to have an entry like this, you know, people that that cheered on Russia 10 years ago but now boo them every year because it's the popular thing to do/media told them to do so... Do you think they even care about the events 1944? No, shamefully, they don't give a damn. In fact I'll say now that most of them probably never heard of it till now.
It's understandable for Russia/Ukraine to have strong feelings against each other at the moment, but like I said it should be kept out of Eurovision.
As for the rest of Europe, well the attitude towards Russia is a load of bull stirred up by people wanting to distract us from the true evil and the mess they've left us in. It's a well known tactic of failed persons to use an easy foreign target to distract the people from the true happenings. It doesn't in the least bit surprise me when I see certain people here lapping up it up, but when I see the likes of A-lister following it too I get worried
I support both Russia and Ukraine, they're two of my favourite countries at Eurovision, so I wish for them both to partake in Eurovision with the same commitment they did in the past. I don't want them to lower themselves to sending entries trying to score cheap shots against each other.
I accept the EBU's decision so I listen to 1944 with no bias against it, but it's still not what I want from a great country like Ukraine
