1. Yes
2. No
3. You haven’t traveled much have you..

Genuine question: are you so incredibly stupid as to have been convinced by the laughable propaganda that is constantly spouted by the Israeli regime, or are you just parroting the absurd claims of the warmongers. Who incidentally, are looking increasingly likely to suffer a strategic defeat.

Either way. Eurovision is utter tripe, an irrelevant and absurd way to try and monetise the absolute sewer scraping that would otherwise never be heard, and incidentally, will be totally forgotten by the following day.

Participation in such an event irrespective of the presence of a genocidal regime is in itself a demonstration of a total lack of self respect (much like his appalling, and long forgotten Glastonbury set) ?

Get a grip

word.

1. Eurovision is a joke.
2. Sam Battle is a cool dude.
3. British “cuisine” is even worse than Eurovision.

I have no idea how this song was selected to represent the UK, but I’m thankful to anyone who was involved in voting/campaigning for its selection.

Live performances are a part of the competition proceedings, so let’s hope he gets to bring all the gear, including a modular format of his own creation (how many people can say that?), and burn the house down!

As for those in the comments section taking this opportunity to make this about the broader issue of conflicts between nations and regions: I’m sure you mean well, and that your heart is in the right place. I just don’t think the comments section on a website about synthesizers is the place to voice your opinions. Write to your local political representative, donate money to causes you care about. Perhaps leave the synthesizer comments section to the discussion of… synthesizers? Or, if you absolutely cannot resist, try framing your statements in the first person, i.e. ‘I don’t think…’, otherwise you may come across as condescending and rude to those who don’t share your position, and even those who agree with you may think ‘Christ, man, you’re not helping…’

But this track, whatever you may think of it, is going to be the soundtrack of summer 26.

Of course, countries like North Korea, Iran, Russia, etc. should have the option to participate. In such an imaginary Worldvision contest, no country should be excluded, regardless of what their respective governments are doing wrong. I mean, if countries with inhuman policies should be excluded from the contest, then most European countries must be excluded. And New Zealand, Australia, Israel, Japan, etc.

The world of the arts and sport should be free from politics. These parts of international meetings are important events, where even the “worst” country can show that their citizens love music, art, and sport.

Of course this is all wishful thinking. But wishful thinking is a beautiful thing. No law can interfere with, nobody can deny wishful thinking. When a beautiful wish is thought, it exists. Millions of good wishes do have an impact.

This song might even win this contest.

1. it is well done, with an easy to memorise refrain where everybody can sing along.
2. Sam Battle is not too old for the younger generation, not too young for the elder generation. Perfect match. And he’s a funny guy. He can improvise with words and with his synthesiser system.
3. people probably have enough of queer artistry and pseudo-satanic shows like in recent Eurovision contests.

……Always nice to see such deep technical analysis on a synth forum.

Wow, nice! Thank you. Love the synth lines.

“Served in their county’s armed forces” “Israel is commenting genocide”
Isn’t this just you saying you prefer genocide on everyone in Israel?
Or don’t you understand that without an army Israel would’ve been wiped of the map?
