    Just say yes: Reviewing Italy's Festival di Sanremo 2026

    The Festival della canzone italiana (aka Sanremo) is a European music staple and well-known as the Eurovision precursor. Over five nights, the 76th edition of the festival delighted Italians and kept us hoping for a big banger of a winner. Michael and Bryan condensed 25 hours of content into one handy show to help you understand what could have been in Vienna. While Sal Da Vinci ended up as Italy‘s winner, we had other thoughts.

    Permit to dance: Reviewing Austria's Vienna Calling - Wer singt für Österreich? 2026

    The host country always gets a free pass into the Eurovision Grand Final. It’s probably lucky then that Austria is hosting after reviewing Vienna Calling – Wer singt für Österreich?. Michael and Bryan take a whizz through the host’s national final, and wonder if ORF’s budget can stretch enough to cover Cosmó‘s needs in May. Is Tanzschein the best choice for Austria in 2026?

    There are some Eurovision national finals that are very well know, and then are are some which, well, are often missed. Lithuania is often caught in the latter category, but we reckon it’s time for that to change. Michael and Ethan go back in time to review Eurovizija.LT, which saw Lion Ceccah win the coveted ticket to Vienna. But what else was up for contention?

    Don't deny it: Reviewing Germany's Das deutsche Finale 2026

    The beauty of being a Big 5 country is not having to deal with pesky semi finals. It feels like Germany takes this on board when their national final comes around. Michael and Ethan delve into Eurovision Song Contest: Das deutsche Finale 2026 to explore what new German broadcaster ARD put together to send to Vienna. And it’s quite the combination. While Sarah Engels won the superfinal, there were some songs that really should’ve got a better shot. Is Fire the best choice for Germany in 2026?
