Um. K. Not sure anyone said this was “authentic celtic aesthetic”…

It’s not. Of course it’s not.
But also it’s closer to the old stories than the bowdlerised Romantic stuff that most people think of, all Arthur Rackham and Lady Gregory (which isn’t to say that they aren’t awesome as well).
I don’t know, people think of Ireland’s folkloric aesthetic in terms of fairy mounds and leprechauns and selkies and aren’t they cute, and less in terms of the Cailleach Bhéara and the Mórrigán and the sheer terror of being hunted by a Capaill Uisce.
I … may have overreacted in excitement. I was not acquainted with Bambie Thug before, and I find that like them.

They’ve been forbidden from putting any political messages in their makeup for the final, so I think it’s going to say “Crown the witch” for the performance tomorrow.
I’m rooting for Iceland.
Seriously, though, this song is pretty catchy.
A year or two back they had Hannes Óli Ágústsson read out Iceland’s points and he yelled out “Play Jaja Ding Dong!”, his catchphrase from the Fire Saga movie.

Eurovissionsschlagerfestivalen is the proper name and that is the end of that!
Also, my opinion of swedish pop artist Eric Saade rose by several degrees this week:
