Take it or leave it
Way back in December, I unwittingly committed myself to the Sisyphean nightmare that is Moopyvision 2010-2019. In the intervening months, the world has changed dramatically, but I hope my increasingly resentful write-ups of some 400 pop songs of wildly varying quality and interest level has provided you with some pleasure.
Now, we're finally moving on. As in the real Eurovision, we're having two semi finals before the main event. For reasons of consistency, the big five - France, Germany, Italy, Spain and United Kingdom - will all automatically progress to the finals. The other forty countries will have to duke it out for the remaining 20 spots.
I've used the classic Eurovision pots system to randomly draw the semi-finalists, and here we have the running order for the first semi final. I would've loved to have done a full livestream viewing of these, but I was advised that due to copyrighting algorithms it'd likely be pulled within a matter of seconds, and honestly, at this point I just want this to be over, so have a YouTube playlist instead.

You can vote from now, but we'll have a viewing party for these 20 songs at 8pm on Tuesday 30th June, followed by an actual livestream of the results as soon as I've punched in the data.
Please PM your votes to me in the standard Eurovision format. Voting to close 15 minutes after the viewing party ends, so around 9.30pm on Tuesday.

Thank you, and please, never ask me to do anything like this ever, ever again.
