ETSC – Every year, the summer is the calm after the storm so it’s the perfect time to resume the highly anticipated the Eurovision Times Song Contest! Each one of you can represent an European country and get to send a song and then vote in a fake Eurovision! Discover the songs this Friday night, 8PM CET!
Each summer, a good number of regular readers stay around for different reasons (they don’t get breaks from work or don’t go on holidays…) but there aren’t much news to keep us going. So the last few years we introduced all sorts of games. The Eurovision Times Awards (Fridas) and the Douze Points Trivia Quiz kept us going in 2013 and Fridas have made come-backs the past five years. Four years ago, a lot of you asked for a fake Eurovision where each one of us would send songs and get to vote. And that was it: the Eurovision Times Song Contest, from then on known as ETSC.
We’ve therefore had 12 editions of ETSC, two in 2014: July 2014 and August 2014, both won by France; the third edition was held in July 2015 and won by the United-Kingdom; the fourth edition was held in Augusut 2015 and was won by Austria; the fifth edition was held in July 2016 and was won by Israel; the sixth edition was held in August 2016 and won by Denmark; the 7th edition was held in July 2017 and was won again by France; the 8th edition was held in August 2017, and it was the first one that went “blind”, meaning people did not know who sent what. It crowned Greece. In 2018, German-speaking countries got their revenge as Switzerland won ETSC 9 and Germany won ETSC 10! Last year, Sweden and Italy, two historically big countries of Eurovision, finally won their first ETSC. For more information, you can discover our new page dedicated to the contest, with its history, all songs participating and the rankings here. A specific article for Top 10 stats was also open here. You can also find it by clicking on the “Specials” section of the site, in the top menu in the red box, just under the site’s name. “ETSC 13 – July 2020” will be officially held in Torino after French-speaking song “Toukassé” won.
After a first round open for people to sign up with a country and send a song, we got 45 people in. In the meantime, to keep us busy, I made a random draw. I also made personal postcards for each entry which will be revealed along with the songs. Everyone can request to see their own postcards for now.
There are some ETSC returnee… If I’m not mistaken, songs are (or at least partially) in English (20), Russian (3), Arabic (2), Romanian (2), Albanian, Armenian, Bosnian, Croatian, Danish, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, Greek, Hebrew, Macedonian, Polish, Slovakian, Slovenian, Spanish, Tamasheq, Turkish and Yakut!
Tonight’s show will be hosted by Mariano di Vaio (actor), Miguel Gobbo Diaz (actor) and Vanessa Hessler (model) at the Teatro Regio in Torino!
Before the show starts, we get the live reprise of the winning song:
Tut-Tut! Here’s a surprise on stage! The fiat that will bring the flags for all participating countries:

The Eurovision Times 
We’re on our way to Turin with this Turinese classic – Fiat Uno Turbo ”Totip”. Che crazy bella machina! Avanti!
Dominik! Shall I pick you up?
Va bene! Just hang on a sec. Let me grab my Irene Grandi best of!
Hope it’s a casette!
Good thing I am old enough to remember how to record from CD to cassette!
It becomes really handy now! :-)
Also decided to advertise Dino’s notorious pool club, Euro Club of ETSC 13.
It didn’t come up.
What do you mean? No pool club?
I thought you tried to post the instgram link.
No, I leave the pool clubs to you! 😃
It should have view to Alps.
Apparently Shades pool part is visible on WP check the previous page.
It was there already yesterday.
I didn’t notice. How hot is it by the way?
It’s seriously hot, though Shades do is way too experimental to my tastes!
What do?
Hairdo
I do like it. You like it shaved or very short?
I like short classic, no frills stylings best.
He used to have short hair. He is still hot either way.
Yeah, this is just a personal preference.
Normally I like an afro but if short hair suits someone I still go for it.
I don’t find afro hot, but I really love the look :-)
It is not about hot or not but style, or if it does someone looking better.
Quite narrow view on style.
To have an afro?
No. To think that style is just about making yourself look better.
I didn’t mean this. I meant that sometimes Afro makes some people look better but the opposite can be said as well.
Ok, I misread your comment. I think afro is more than anything about being black and very proud.
My 12s:
ETSC 1: Norway(2nd)
ETSC 2: France(1st)
ETSC 3: Slovakia(15th)
ETSC 4: Slovakia(25th)
ETSC 5: Lithuania(29th)
ETSC 6: Lithuania(18th)
ETSC 7: Sweden(5th)
ETSC 8: Austria(18th)
ETSC 9:Lebanon(4th)
ETSC 10:Israel(36th)
ETSC 11:Austria(7th)
ETSC 12:The Netherlands (17th)
Weird voting. lol I don’t seem to be giving my maximum score to the winner.
Weird voting. lol I don’t seem to be giving my ma*imum score to the winner.
You are marking the winners down.
I don’t mark them down. I actually vote for the winners most of the times(i think).
My Slovakia double at the top of your list. :)
I can’t tell where my 12 pts went in the past. When I bought a new computer earlier this year, I copied all files but somehow my ETSC/FdlC/VFoS excel file got lost. :(
If I remember correctly, I gave 12 pts to the winning song once (Gold Shadow) … and most other 12 pts went to Greece … <3
These have been my 12’s so far:
1 France
2 Finland
3 Slovakia
4 France
5 Iceland
6 Germany
7 Russia
8 Greece
9 Austria
10 Tunisia
11 Greece
12 Latvia
If I remember correctly, I gave 12 pts to your Danish song in ETSC 12 … :)
True :)
We exchanged 12 pts in that edition, just like Malta and Slovakia did in ESC again and again all those years ago.
Btw, the other day, your song came up while I was in the car with my sister. She said: ‘I love this song, but do you think that it is appropriate for driving a car?’
I never listen to music while driving. But if I were to decide if it was appropriate for driving or not, it would more be a question of whether or not the sound of the motor drowns out the music. Music with heavy dynamic shifts between forte and piano would suffer. Which is why I don’t enjoy music in the car.
I mostly listen to shake shake stuff when driving the car, and I love singing along on the top of my lungs (but only when I am alone in the car). *blush*
Random song of the day:
can I email you the Finnish song?
Thanks for the track :)
Have you seen Stephen Frears’ movie Florence about her? Highly reccommendable!
I have only watched a few clips. Haven’t seen the whole movie.
I sincerely recommended it. It’s very solid Frears work and even though the story has been altered a but, it’s still close enough to take a closer look in this beautiful madness.
Something a bit in the spirit of The Disaster Artist and Tim Burton’s Ed Wood film I imagine?
After 3 listenings I have a pretty clear idea where my pts will go, only the 1 and 2 pts might still change. What’s mostly left now is to make sure of each song’s position in the top 10.
And this is where my 12p went in the previous editions:
ETSC 4: 🇮🇪 Ireland (13th)
ETSC 5: 🇮🇸 Iceland (13th)
ETSC 6: 🇩🇰 Denmark (1st)
ETSC 7: 🇫🇷 France (1st)
ETSC 8: 🇦🇺 Australia (6th)
ETSC 9: 🇫🇷 France (3rd)
ETSC 10: 🇩🇪 Germany (1st)
ETSC 11: 🇮🇹 Italy (5th)
ETSC 12: 🇩🇪 Germany (29th)
It seems that (except on a few occasions) my 12p does very well, 3 times going to the eventual winner so far. :)
Apart from 29th, the other positions are very respectable.
Was it you who recommended Mucho Mucho Amor to watch in an earlier post? I am sure I seen it mentioned but couldn’t find it looking backI. I watthed it last night and loved it. What a fabulous character and person was Walter Mercado. Loved it.
Indeed, I’m curious to see where my 12 will end up this time.
It was not me with that recommendation, it’s the first time I hear of it actually. :p
Wonder who it was. Either way it is worth a look. More a documentary but an interesting and enjoyable watch. His story is fascinating and lovely.
Guys, when is the voting deadline?
Wednesday next week. How are you doing?
I can say bette, in terms of fever especially, but Im coughing more now..
I did rendgen of laungs in the morning and it is under control! The most important is not to transfer into pneumonia…
Take good care of yourself, Marko, and please keep us informed.
Yeah, I hope it’ll get better soon!
Get well soon Marko
Thanks, so I have more time….
This is really good to have competition with so many songs now to have fun..

Krila
Znaš, ja sam tebe izmolio za sebe
da te volim i ljubim i čuvam
i nikom ne dam,
znaš, ja sam tebe izmolio za sebe
da te odvedem domu našem
i u oči gledam;
Kad kažem ti
da sav moj svijet si ti
i kažem ti
da duša moje duše zauvjek si
al sve je laž od tebe mi bila
i ova moja mala krila je slomila.
Znaš, ja sam tebe izmolio za sebe
da te volim i ljubim i čuvam
i nikom ne dam
znaš ja sam tebe, samo tebe
izmolio za sebe,
da te odvedem domu našem
i u oči gledam;
Kad kažem ti da, sav moj svijet, si ti
i kažem ti da, nikada te neću napustiti
al sve je laž od tebe mi bila
i ova moja mala krila je slomila.
Wing
You know, I prayed to myself
to love and cherish and guard you
and I will not give this to anyone else,
you know, I begged you for myself
to take you to our home
and I look into his eyes;
When I tell you
that you’re all my world
and I tell you
that you are the soul of my soul forever
but everything from you was was a lie
and this little wing of mine broke.
You know, I begged to myself
to love and cherish and guard you
and there won’t be anyone else
you know I am you, just you
prayed for himself,
to take you to our home
and I look into his eyes;
When I tell you that, my whole world is you
and I tell you yes, I will never leave you
but everything was a lie from you
and this little wing of mine broke.
His eyes…

Yes this is a promotion indeed. Belarus HoD knows their audience :-p
Ski slope!
Slavic beauty as it’s very best!
Sluts.
Exactly kind of slut who are deeply missed in ESC.
I don’t miss those.
Music wise ESC had fallen into a big limbo. At least the performers could look hot.
I really dislike the first two photos but somehow LOVE the third one: the slight grainy quality and the most hilarious “O” face; looks like he was either hit hard in the groin or caught wanking off!👌

Hm the cute guy has a Caribbean accent. Interesting!

When I Dance For You
When I look at you it’s like clouds and storm
when I embrace you it’s as if time stops
and when I dance for you, I steal from the other girls
when I dance for you, I steal from the other girls
Tam,diri ri ram, tam diri ri ram
There is no one else, only the two of us
It’s as if it’s summer due to our fever
and when I dance for you, I steal from the other girls
when I dance for you, I steal from the other girls
Tam,diri ri ram, tam diri ri ram
When you say that you will leave, the forests burn
who’s gonna spend me , who’s gonna satiate me
when I dance for you, I steal from the other girls
when I dance for you, I steal from the other girls
Tam,diri ri ram, tam diri ri ram

I basically know who’s going to be 6th :p
And at least 8th. Can you give me the 12 points? :P
My points are already given
Wow, so all your 12s have ended up in the top 8 so far! :o But usually either 1st, 2nd or 6th. :p
I have emailed people who need it the Finnish song. Ask me if you can’t get it. Likewise for any other song of course but this one seemed very problematic!
Got it 👍
My votes are in! Had a clear 12 pts, then a clear 10 pts. My 6 to 8 points were in a tier, then the rest of my points and 11th/12th were in a tier close by and it was tough ranking them. Had a tough time cutting my 13th place from my Top 12, I’ll make sure to give it an honourable mention during the results night.
“Moreover, you need to send me a city, a hall venue and a host for the next edition if you win!”
Cmon, our delegation can skip this part right? If we win, the world is going to end most likely so there won’t be another edition anyway.
Let’s not put mankind in any danger; Let’s place where we are comfortable, ie anywhere between 40 and 45.
If not, I know for a fact that we can’t choose hell as the place because it’s going to freeze over the day we win, and thus be unsuitable due to the low temperatures.
On another topic, can’t wait to find out who Denmark is so I can curse them out publicly. Unless, of course they are one our beloved females, then I certainly won’t curse them out. Well, at least not in public. Haha
Lol
Did you watch all the right minutes? 🤣
*right = eight
the video is quite a ride too lol
Hehe, yeah, all the “ride”-minutes :-)
Just a heads up: Greece’s video is geoblocked over her.
But I was able to find 2 other options. The audio only and the video from a non YouTube site.
https://m.ok.ru/video/371278025020
I’m doing way too much work here, gonna start charging the extremely corrupt ETSCBU for my time. And yes, “extremely corrupt” should be taken as a compliment.
I’ll take 12pts and it’s a done deal!
The last of the last club:
1: 🇦🇹
2: 🇸🇲
3: 🇫🇮
4: 🇦🇩

6: 🇸🇪
7: 🇷🇴
8: 🇲🇦

10: 🇸🇪
11: 🇹🇳
12: 🇲🇩
Sweden twice :p
In FdlC/VFoS it is the USA with 4 times but on the other hand they have won 3 thrice so far.
Maybe a reason France does well in July, in football and ETSC: the national holiday is on the 14th!
In the US they call it “Bastille day” which is funny coz legally it’s not a celebration of the 14th of July 1789 but of the 14th of July 1790, when France held a “Federation Party” to celebrate the 1 year of the Bastille. Not a bit difference, but a little known fact ;)
I’m always surprised at how much noise these military planes make (living by the Défense quarter they start there to fly straight to the Concorde and I hear them every year loud and clear)!
I would love to see an OTT military parade some day.
I have taken part in one when I was in the army. Not a very OTT one, just a small town parade for Independence Day.
Yes, I have participated in provincial one in the army too. It was snowing heavily and in the end we were singing couple of hymns in front of medieval castle. Quite surreal.
Not just parading but singing as well? Melikes 😎
That was the fun part. I’m not religious at all, but I love to sing hymns 😃
I cant sing anything :'(
Oh, that’s sad!
Vive la France! We are still not quite there yet, but it’s a work in progress. Let’s just say things really have gotten better! Enjoy the day!
Vive la France, tu me manques!!!
I spent a good amount of time living in France (both Paris and Nice) at various points in my upbringing so I do really love the country and can’t wait until I can return. It is weird how the holiday is called Bastille Day here, and I’m not sure why we do that lol.
Joyeux Quatorze Juillet! :)
Merci mon ami :)
And now it’s good time to take a look how you take the all time official portrait of the president.
He’s gorgeous on this
He is, and I love the set up: Charles de Gaulle’s memoirs, Stendhal’s The Red and The Black and two iPhones with both flags in equal position. His suit is also perfect. I was so excited about this when it was released. Actually, I still am.
I think he was hottest when he did that “Nous sommes en guerre” speech announcing the first lockdown – very butch for a guy in a 3000-Euro (at least) suit.
The pin is a bit of faux pas! And I think he looked way hotter when he started. He has lost weight and there wasn’t too much to begin with!
I prefer to think of him as lean and ripped rather than too thin. Actually no, if he were, some swimsuit pics would have already emerged. Black squarecuts I’d guess.
There are some swimming suit picks in my legandary vault:
Thx! I’ve to say I’m disappointed in his swimwear – also the body hair is a mess :-(.
Disappointed as well. You’re French, show some skin Macron.
I would be very worried if he was trimmed like pride whore from Tel Aviv!
Sorry but that is just a mess… it’s crawling up to his shoulders.
And OMG look at his eye brows!!!!!
See but considering the effort spent on the eye brows I don’t get the full frontal uncontrolled growth – that’s just lazy to me past otter age.
His eye brows are not overtly done. And I don’t think spends much time In grooming. That pic proves it. It’s you who are after overtly groomed gay style. Not him.
He’d never be after overtly gay style – he’s married to a woman!!!
Who just happened to be his drama teacher.
That’s so fucking sexy and French!
I don’t eveluate people to lowly “fucking sexy” standards, cretin! I prefer to look at the composition (of their body, facial hair and gear).
Brigitte is quite a composition!
Fun fact: The cover version this was our Marion’s (ESC 62 and 73) first recording and first hit.
She actually also had a fairly successful song, performed in Germany’s legendary Hitparade. It’s quite good despite the terrible title IMO:
This was of course hit in Finland too! Haven’t seen this one. Nice rose 😀
She was huge star here in 70’s and she did couple of pretty marvelous schlager albums, classics of that time.
That wasa feature of the show – people handing flowers, usually rosess, to the stars. There was also a regular in the studio audiencer, known as “Hitparadden-granny”:
Sweet!
It’s natural fur of middle aged man. I like it.
the pin is a thing presidents do! this says “Grand Croix” the highest title in the Légion d’honneur that every president is promoted to when he wins the election!
Ah, everyday learning something new!
Sarkozy wearing it:
Hollande wearing it:
Macron wore it best!
well he was elected president when he was 20yo younger than the other two lol (for a while wasnt he the youngest Head of State in the World?) my god was Hollande a hilarious president
Hahhahhaa!
You can take 20 years off of those two and they still won’t look like Macron actually take 30 😀
but both have had gorgeous women: Hollande keeps getting a younger one after 4 children with Ségolène Royal (some quite hot looking), he was with Valérie Trierweiler and now with actor/producer Julie Gayet! It’s like the same woman, younger each time lol
Sounds very handy!
Yes, they both have had gorgeous women, still
Well, for the late 70s they’re doable I guess lol!
well well well, here you are: would you rather be Hollande looking but f*cking Julie Gayet or hot as Macron but doing grandma Brigitte Macron? :p
I know I don’t care what I look like as long as I keep scoring hotties :o
Don’t think the problem is Macron not scoring hotties. He’s just into older women. Especially Brigitte.
As for 70’s Hollande is weirdly doable nerd, but I think Sarkozy looks better older. As young he looked just creepy!
He was a very creepy young politician, the story where he goes “save the kindergarten kids” is straight out of House of Cards lol
”Nicolas Sarkozy is a short, conservative, hard-working Cassanova. He has cracked down on prostitution and negotiated with terrorist bombers to save children.”
LOL
Macaron looks like such a killer yuppie consultant that looks down on everyone, so it’s a no.
… plus as I said, he looks like a bitchy queen. You know he’d take half an hour to get dressed just to get croissants in the morning.
And half an hour more in the bathroom.
He is naturally good looking, That hair is done in a flash. And one moisturizer will do. Five minutes max!
Fanboy :-D
Guilty as charged :-)
He probably doesn”t have to get croissants in there morning. Bloody hell, my clothes are always sharp and I’m not president of France. You have to know your style. It’s not about time. It’s about style. That’s the key. :-)
Trust me, that look is so easily swiped a way. I specialized in The City yuppies for sometime ;-)
The sexiest world leader
You’re supposed to say the second-sexiest, traitor!
My mistake! I bow down to Supreme Leader Trump, how I wish he would bless me with his touch.
Everything he touches dies so better not!
Actually I find Pedro Sanchez even sexier than Macron; M seems a bit more like a bitchy queen
Sanchez is cute too, but Macron is pretty much my type put into the mold of a politician. He’s the best I could ask for. I also used to find Mexico’s last president Enrique Peña Nieto really cute. I remember seeing this (https://www.macleans.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/TRUDEAU.jpg) picture of him jogging with Trudeau in little short shorts and was like, yep, I’m into it.
But of course if we’re counting (possible) future world leaders, Gavin Newsom (Gov. of California) is my ultimate crush.
Peña Nieto was cute, too, but seemed a combo of incompetence and corruption… I think the Venezuelan opposition leader (Guiado) is sexy; more so the less for mal he looks.
Short short Magnum P.I. style are making a comeback!!
Sanchez and king Felipe together.
Hands down! Besides in the world stage France is always super sexy. That counts too.
Nerdy stuff vol 2.
Greece and GBR have the most “aggressive” promo so far…
More than Belarus?
Belarus was just some slUtty pics :P
What do you mean aggressive? It was just info about the band.
I mean “Promo x 2”
That sounds like Dino. He can never get enough.
Last year I provided only a one paragraph info about Shanguy. As for A-WA I only asked people to enable captions. So?
But that’s not what you do in VFoS 😎
In VFoS I tend to focus on the country after sometime though.
RTVSLO opens songs submissions for Ana Soklič.
I really like Ana as a singer so hopefully it’s something much better than “Voda” and still in Slovene.
Votes sent!
Off and running. Won’t say which entry we began with, but we can say that it started off fantastically. Good lord.
Talking about style icons…
You know you watched too much Eurovision when you’ve the urgent desire to dance the Lithuanian choreo only because you are wearing a long sleeved white shirt…^^
And here come Fiat’s cool and sexy sisters!
We’re in Torino after all.
I think we should switch to that Gamma, like now! Grab the cassette!
Definitely the better spider! Let’s!
Yey! There’s Alan Sorrenti’s L.A & N.Y in the glove compartment. I simply love Tu Sei L’unica Donna per me!
And that’s where he stays. In the glove compartment.
Hahhahhaa!
