Finland 2023: Käärijä - Cha Cha Cha

[Apo-KANT!]

And not to forget that Carola only barely won, and wouldn’t with the new rules.

Yeah but she has Jesus by her side so she doesn't count.

 

[Zu]

Let's not blame poor lovely Käärijä for online LOONS. He can't help being Europe's answer to Evita.

Oh it’s not HIS fault. I’m over that notion, even if the sore loser routine HAS probably inspired loons to launch into POOR BABY - LOREAN SO EVIL AND ALSO CHEETING THEAF mode. I mainly blame the greasy bolero

 

[Zu]

Carola only barely won

JUSTICE FOR AMINA!

 

[RS]

I blamed the green nails from day one

 

[KNT]

I mainly blame the greasy bolero

Some say it has the aroma of pickled herring dropped between the slats of a sauna bench.

 

[Zu]

“So, Carola, do you have fond memories of ONLY BARELY WINNING?”

 

[Zu]

I blamed the green nails from day one

It did become a battle of the nails, didn’t it? Of course pricey and luxurious stone ones were always going to win over some lurid 99p polish from Superdrug OR WHATEVER THEY HAVE IN FINLAND

 

[lolly]

They keep pointing at that 50th Abba anniversary as if it’s some kind of proof…


What would happen If they also knew/remembered that it’s also Herrey’s 40th and Charlotte’s 25th anniversay too?


omg it’s all a conspiracy isn’t it?

So also the 10th and the 25th anniversaries of Waterloo?

I'M STARTING TO BELIEVE IT MYSELF

 

[Soldi Elektronike]

Haven’t ABBA already come out and said they’re not reuniting for Eurovision?!

 

[Soldi Elektronike]

I’d be very much down for a repeat of the Liverpool Songbook but with ABBA songs however (or Loreen songs omg imagine )

 

[Zu]

Haven’t ABBA already come out and said they’re not reuniting for Eurovision?!

Maybe they’ll send their CARTOONS

 

[KNT]

I’d be very much down for a repeat of the Liverpool Songbook but with ABBA songs however (or Loreen songs omg imagine )

Käärijä would do a lovely KING KONG SONG.

 

[Zu]

Maybe ABBA will win the Melody Festival, perhaps with a song as stunning as the album tracks on Voyage

Cue insane fans screaming OMG CHEATING SWEDEN and WHO LET THESE SCABS ENTER EUROSONG TWICE HOPE THEY DIE

 

[lolly]

Haven’t ABBA already come out and said they’re not reuniting for Eurovision?!

Yes. But more recently Bjorn has said he's up for it, but it's not up to him alone. There will be a whole year of speculation.

I wouldn't be surprised to see all of them go, but I would be very surprised to see them on stage together, and there's not a hope in hell of a performance.

 

[Soldi Elektronike]

Maybe they’ll send their CARTOONS

Omg can we just host again and have it in the ABBA Arena

 

[Zu]

Käärijä would do a lovely KING KONG SONG.

Maybe he’ll get his bum out for that SIMIAN LOOK

 

[lolly]

...unless Voyage ticket sales start to flag, and then I bet Bjorn will get Agnetha up on stage with a gun in her back.

 

[KNT]

If Agnetha isn't up for it, I know a perfect stand in

 

[Zu]

...unless Voyage ticket sales start to flag, and then I bet Bjorn will get Agnetha up on stage with a gun in her back.

“Can you kindly DITCH THE STICKS please Frida. We’re trying to look contemporary. You can QUITE EASILY WALK WITHOUT THEM!”

 

[Zu]

If Agnetha isn't up for it, I know a perfect stand in

And Loreen can be Frida

NOBODY WILL NOTICE and also she did copy The Winner Takes It All for her TAYTO SONG

 

[RS]

Haven’t ABBA already come out and said they’re not reuniting for Eurovision?!

All this cheating for decades for nothing then.

 

[Zu]

All this cheating for decades for nothing then.

 

[Madison]

And not to forget that Carola only barely won, and wouldn’t with the new rules.

Shush. Let’s all forget this.

 

[dzjermlaw]

Maybe ABBA will win the Melody Festival, perhaps with a song as stunning as the album tracks on Voyage

If you’re going to be so spiteful, we’ll make you listen to the twelve minute remix of Little Things, now with extra children’s choir.

 

[Zu]

Shush. Let’s all forget this.

AMINA will never forget. That poor woman: a model of grace and continental elegance subjected to a certain someone coming on like a deranged and highly uncouth gnome on amphetamines

 

[Zu]

If you’re going to be so spiteful, we’ll make you listen to the twelve minute remix of Little Things, now with extra children’s choir.

Better that than Keep An Eye On Dan or (shudder) Just A Notion

 

[lolly]

I'm waiting for Bjorn to get down with the kids and release a sped up version of the album

 

[HalamaK]

Haven’t ABBA already come out and said they’re not reuniting for Eurovision?!

Bjorn has come out and said that they will definitely come up with something NEW for Eurovision.

 

[lolly]

Bjorn has come out and said that they will definitely come up with something NEW for Eurovision.

Oh shit

 

[Zu]

I'm waiting for Bjorn to get down with the kids and release a sped up version of the album

I like to play it at 45rpm so it’s over more quickly

 

[Zu]

Bjorn has come out and said that they will definitely come up with something NEW* for Eurovision.

*rework of something binned during the Ring Ring album sessions

'Fan favourite'

 

[Soldi Elektronike]

Oh in which case IT’S ALL FIXED FINLAND REAL WINNER ETC ETC

 

[HalamaK]

I went through all the demos, Just Like That is basically the only publishable thing they have left and Benny would produce an entirely new ABBA album before letting Björn release that.

 

[HalamaK]

Agnetha would be the holdout and she didn't mind the Voyage recording sessions too much. She did however mind performing live on stage in space suits for a whole month. She found it to be a lot of work.

 

[HalamaK]

Loreen also won on the 10th competition since the best ESC entry of all time!

 

[Zu]

They could always write new words to Happy Hawaii again and give it a fresh new sound for 2024

NOBODY WILL NOTICE

 

[C’est la VoR]

Agnetha would be the holdout and she didn't mind the Voyage recording sessions too much. She did however mind performing live on stage in space suits for a whole month. She found it to be a lot of work.

I get the impression she finds standing up for more than 10 minutes at a time to be a lot of work.

 

[Soldi Elektronike]

I get the impression she finds standing up for more than 10 minutes at a time to be a lot of work.

A bit like Loreen

 

[Zu]

A bit like Loreen

Thank heavens for that CLEVER PLINTH which enabled her to have a well-deserved LIE DOWN
