An American's review of Eurovision 2021
10 August 2021
Warning: Spoilers
This was the first year I watched Eurovision from start to finish because it was the first year it streamed live in the US (on Peacock). I must say that it was the most entertaining televised event I've ever watched.

I studied French as an academic minor and I loved how two of the entries were in French and how San Marino gave their results in French. However, I thought the two French-language entries were underwhelming, especially compared to the French-language Eurovision winner "Ne partez pas sans moi" by Céline Dion.

The Israeli entry for 2021 was good, but I prayed for the apartheid state of Israel not to win so I wouldn't have had to boycott Eurovision next year. My favorite entry that made it to the finals was the Cypriot entry, "El Diablo" by Elena Tsagrinou. The Croatian entry, "Tick-Tock" by Albina, should have made it to the finals.

It's very easy to see why Eurovision is so popular and why 183 million people watched it this year.
