I know Voyager were hoping to be the Australian Eurovision entry this year, but didn’t grab the Australian public’s vote. It might have been interesting to see how they did, had they made it.

Road Salt was the song Pain of Salvation were hoping would be their Eurovision entry. But, like Voyager, the band didn’t gain enough votes to represent their country.

It takes some time before I forget all the things that have happened to me here, and nobody ever has said "excuse" to me or given me an explanation.

Or I guess, I'm wrong concerning explanation. You did it indirectly, in PMs.

I might be somewhat cynical, but I’m fairly certain the UK only came second because Ukraine was always going to win. If that same song had appeared in previous years, it wouldn’t have surprised me if it received nil points. When you know something else is going to beat it, it’s a lot easier to give something else some points.

Actually, thank goodness the UK didn’t win, as the Tories would no doubt have acclaimed it as a great Brexit win. 😜

Now, to drag this vaguely back on topic, how many prog metal Eurovision songs can you name? 🤪

That's what I meant. Anyway, getting back on topic, I don't generally go out of my way to avoid Progressive Metal, as I've liked most of what I've heard in that genre so far - mainly Ayreon, Dream Theater & Porcupine Tree - although I'm still undecided about Opeth, having only heard their first three albums up to now. The only prog genre I now go out of my way to avoid is Avant Prog, having been less than impressed - to put it mildly - by the debut albums from the Cardiacs, Guapo, Present, Swans & Thinking Plague. I haven't yet heard any RIO or Zeuhl music, but I have a strong feeling that wouldn't appeal to me either. Wink

It's more like pointing that you're the absolutely leader of the off-topicness, and maybe pointing some other of your hypocrisy with connection to The Lemming. Ermm

I am usually the one telling people to stay on topic. So I don't know what you're talking about.

I've already asked to get back on topic, seems like talking about misspelling is more interesting. Let's close this thread then and someone start a thread about the different types of English usage all over the world and their differences.

I don’t know. This tangent is more interesting than the topic. 🤷🏻‍♂️
