          Sam is always entertaining to watch. I catch his YouTube channels fairly regularly. I listen to fairly niche stuff and Sam’s Music isn’t really my jam per se. He’s definitely no virtuoso or genius musically but he’s absolutely solid and a really good performer. I don’t think most people watching realize how hard what he does is. Tuning, maintaining, and playing analog synth live.

          I live in oceanway on the other side of the planet on a continent I think has no participation in the competition whatsoever? So I generally don’t pay attention to it. But I was well chuffed to see that Sam was representing the UK. He’s got enthusiasm and heart for days.

        Been watching Sam for years since he was living in unused commercial buildings and constructing diy mad scientist synths. He’s a real and genuine guy, he deserved more.

        Wow. That. Hmm.

        I’m glad he seems to be having fun. Really, that’s what matters.

      I don’t watch eurovison, honestly I only ever hear about winners like this, and frankly this song is a banger (a bangaranga even) and the choreography is sick.

      I watched it on Youtube since well, people were talking about it, and honestly I’m not gonna get this song out of my head for days.
