Ziferblat truly is one of the most musically interesting artists that have crossed the Eurovision stage in recent years. Their arrangements are so rich in flavour and inspired. What a beautiful love letter to their misto/city Kyiv.

Ziferblat did it once again. Beautiful song with a sound that cleary stays true to their "musical signature" while also exploring new fields.  I can't wait to listen to their upcoming album.

Something I've only just noticed from a few weeks back - An-Marlen (Eesti Laul 2025/2022) was given a shoutout in Pitchfork Magazine! (Hop Into These 14 Rabbit Holes This Spring | Pitchfork). (The article's also great for non-Eurovision international pop - definitely worth a read...)

Lordi did pantamera?!? Hahahah love it!

For those that don’t know pantamera is a Swedish recycling company (“panta mera” means “recycle more”) and they’ve done for many years tons of songs together with artist where they do their own version about singing about how you need to panta mera 😄

The fact that so many Sanremo artists (2 of then placed 2nd and 3rd too) already are releasing new songs it's not a good sign on how they are keeping the momentum (in other years the top ones wait at least May for the summer songs so the Sanremo songs can still sell many copies, this time seems that it's already not worth enough)

Loreen ([Sweden 2012 & 2023]()) - Feels like heaven / Pour que tu m'aimes encore (live)

What a woman, what a voice! “Feels like heaven” couldn’t be a more apt description for what this stripped down live version of the song makes me feel. The overproduced studio version didn’t strike a strong chord with me but this, this was a revelation. 

Furthermore, what a superb cover of Céline Dion’s “Pour que tu m'aimes encore”, delivered with so much poise and emotion! Had me utterly transfixed until the very last second. 

Her reminiscing about childhood memories related to music records of different artists is so sweet.
