Has anyone in Canada, the US or some other non-participating country checked out the videos of the shows and live performances on the official ESC channel from between 2016 and 2019 yet? If not, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised! :)

Latvia will not withdraw, their parliament rejected that petition
MRT just made it official, they're back!
2023 was pretty much Loreen's to lose right from her Melfest selection
However, there's only 15 songs in semifinal 1. Croatia dropping out would mean 14 songs would be left and a country would have to be moved from semifinal 2 to even up the numbers. The deadline for song submission is in a couple of weeks, so the only solution outside of disqualification is to change the lyrics so it doesn't violate the rules
The song is about Putin, which is against the rules regarding political statements (case in point, Georgia 2009 and Belarus 2021)
@CartoonLoverGirl2000 You'll be happy to know that Misscatylove will not be participating in the Moldovan selection - "Outro" got rejected by TRM
"Intro" was not a song, but ear-bleeding noise. "Outro" I think will be the same, and I don't get why some Eurofans believe Misscatylove is an artistic genius
The "Winner's Curse" is how past winners come back to try again, only to have a worse result. The only one immune to this curse of course is Johnny Logan
Makes me wonder if I should add a page about the "Winner's Curse"
KAN prematurely confirmed her participation, Noa said she's still debating whether or not to accept it. If she does, her page will be re-added
Pardon the Pokemon reference, but that "song" sounded like a Guzzlord scream from the Japanese version of the Sun & Moon anime

And how about United Kingdom and Spain? Both were in the bottom 3 last year (the UK with no points whatsoever), and this year they finish 2nd and 3rd with their best results in over 20 years! Next year the UK should stick with TaP Management and Spain with Benidorm Fest
Speaking of the United Kingdom, it's just been announced that Sam will be performing at the Party at the Palace on June 4 to celebrate the Queen's Platinum Jubilee
AquaKing79 is correct, as with previous contest edition pages prior to the start of the edition only staff such as admins can edit the page at this time. Once the grand final is over, the protection will be lifted so general users can add in things that might have been missed
Yes I will. It will likely be aired here on a time delay via French channel TV5 Quebec
I followed the last 3 French selections (DE and CVQD), and before that the Swiss national final from 2013 to 2018
It was the summer of 2009 watching the 1987 contest on a DVD set I ordered from a girl in Sweden
Latvia has been added
@IsLetterLatter Someone was messing around with the Wiki and said the Philippines was going to debut in 2022 with a bunch of other Asian countries and Vatican City, so the person created a Philippines country page. When this was spotted by other users, the page was deleted, all fake information was reversed and the user was permanently banned
Malta has been re-added. Must have been an oversight
