      Yes indeed. I had a memory of arguing with somebody about the size of the sweet that he holds near the end of the song, in my mind I had exaggerated it to be about the size of his torso, but my friend said it was normal size. Out of nowhere that thought came to me and I decided to settle the doubt. We were both wrong I guess.

      This entry is one of my earliest memories of Eurovision (I was 9 in 2007. My family didn't watch Eurovision every year but in 2007, we did). 😂 I liked this song LOL. This at least feels like we got the campiness and weirdness of Eurovision. The weird sexual stuff was WEIRD but still. At least we put effort into it and showed a love for Europe and an enthusiasm for actually experiencing non-British cultures in this performance (i.e., all the flags and the travel theme). In 2022, we have finally had an entry that isn't closed off or trying too hard to distance itself from the continent again - and look how it paid off! We got second place, all because we finally removed our heads from our arses and joined in with the rest of the continent again. We actually understood what types of entries the contest usually responds to this year, and I hope that, that's a trend that continues. More entries like Sam Ryder and we will be well on our way to winning once more. 🥰🇬🇧❤️🇪🇺

      Do you not think it might have something to do with the fact that Malta speaks English as a main language and they share the same sense of humour we do?

      You need to get into the spirit, love! Part of being British is a reliance on the double-entendre - you all think that saying wtf is as far as we get in British humour, but it's not true......:-)
      P.S. Definition of "Double entendre"
      A double entendre is a figure of speech or a particular way of wording that is devised to be understood in either of two ways, having a double meaning. Typically one of the meanings is obvious, given the context whereas the other may require more thought. The innuendo may convey a message that would be socially awkward, sexually suggestive or offensive to state directly.

    • @PhysalisFranchetti
      @PhysalisFranchetti 8 лет назад +4

      George Austin Tay
      I'm glad you understand the principle of the double-entendre - it's just the practical implementation that you're having difficulty with then, love. Never mind, but at least you should be able to concede that other people might find it humorous, as it uses a well-known wit-delivery mechanism.
      One other thing - Eurovision is generally not about good music, rather it accurately identifies (at least through televoting) what is the most "popular" music. If we look at the English-speaking community at Eurovision (the ones who would understand the double-entendre as a means of humour), Malta gave this song 12 points and Ireland 7, which means that this was actually a major hit, so if you don't like it, that's fine, but you should realise, you are in the minority.......

    • @GeorgeAustinTay
      @GeorgeAustinTay 8 лет назад +2

      PhysalisFranchetti
      Malta gave you guys 12 points because they wanted to rebel against bloc voting and chose the worst song of the year and all voted for it. Their 12 points were merely troll points. As for Ireland, they tend to vote for the UK... either way the rest of Europe wasn't here for your humor which was perceived as bad music and performance.
