  • It might give them better ratings. With so many artists boycotting Eurovision, the line-up this year is feeble. I used to go through the playlist barely without skipping, now only a handful of songs are interesting.

    Example of the boycott affecting the choices. From the 16 artists competing in Portugal’s nationals final, only 2 said they would not boycott, guess who is representing PT, by televote, in Eurovision now? And the (lack of) quality shows. Put them side by side with any harmonic group from Eurovision, and it feels like when they had a regular guy competing in the swimming Olympics. They have no charisma. They cannot interpret the song, it is supposed to be about love and longing, but they just look and sound tired and confused on the stage. I don’t worry much about the quality of vocals because usually competitors improve that a lot by the performance day, but still.

    Anyway, Lemmyvision is way more exciting!


  • This is the best answer! Thank you for sharing your methods. I was going to reply about the daily editorial, but yours is more complete.

    I would also like to add that I type the name of things I like and often find them on bandcamp. Including big artists.

    Peter Gabriel, Evanescence, Run the Jewels, Flight of Conchords, Ghost…

    What I don’t find there, I get from a thrift store (easy to find famous artists there) or quobuz.

    The author surely likes that the mascot is a dog. It feels more of a read and analysis of the terms of use than a deep dive of the tool but it was a good reading and I liked the suggestions.

    I also liked the “reminder”.

    Edit: you should share this in some community as a post, every time I see this kind of website (pure content no-nonsense) it is shared is in the comments. 15 years ago this kind of stuff was easy to find, but nowadays, I only see them in comment sections. Even the search engine recommended around here would list a bunch of junk in the first pages.
