Way to go to piss off the Aussies. Surely years of Eurovision appearances should grant Australia automatic associate membership!

(Any replies pointing out that the ESC is nowt to do with the EU will be given nil points)

Canada could become the EU's first associate member!! 🇪🇺🇨🇦

Woah! CHACHI, one of the finalist for Finland’s #UMK26 is actually Mexican and from Texas!

Although she was born in Texas, her Instagram bio just has the Mexican flag 🇲🇽 emoji. 😄

It’s a catchy song but I still prefer (personally) that each song is done in the native language from the country. Idk… just makes it extra special.

Anyway, I had to find out because in an interview I just saw, her accent was very much American and had a very Spanish name.

Serving Kant

It wouldn’t be the annual Eurovision Song Contest without some sort of controversy. Most years the controversy is political in nature. The 2025 contest was no different in this regard, but in addition to the usual political rhubarb, this year’s contest saw a dispute over a certain four-letter word in lyrics of one of the entries.

The song in question was Malta’s entry in the contest: “Serving,” originally titled “Kant,” performed by Maltese singer Miriana Conte and written by Conte, Benjamin “BNJI” Schmid, Sarah Evelyn Fuller, and Matthew “Muxu” Mercieca. The song was released in January 2025.

The original lyrics to the song’s chorus are:

Why should we lеt other people dеcide
When we could be havin’ the time of our lives?
Let down your walls, come and dance to my vibe
I do it all the time, yeah, I do it all the time

Serving kant
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Do-re-mi-fa-s-s-serving kant
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Do-re-mi-fa-s-s-servin’

(You can see a video of Conte performing the original lyrics here.)

Kant, the only Maltese word in the otherwise English-language song, means singing in Maltese, and the word is descended from the Latin cantus, meaning song. The aural similarity to the the English word cunt is obvious, and the phrase serving cunt is ball culture slang meaning to be simultaneously bold, confident, and feminine, a quality that Conte exudes in her performances. (Ball culture is an African-American and LatinX LGBTQ+ subculture with antecedents that date back to nineteenth-century drag balls.)

The song is an anthem of feminine power, and the pun is quite clearly intentional. Conte has been quoted as saying, “Controversial song? Maybe. Bold outfit? Possibly. But we did it. This win is for MALTA. Let’s serve KANT in Basel.”

In addition to the pun, the “do-re-mi” in the chorus references The Sound of Music, as 2025 is the sixtieth anniversary of the film version of the musical. I leave it to the reader’s imagination as to how Julie Andrews might have performed the song.

After complaints from the BBC Radio, which by UK regulations could not broadcast the word cunt before 9 pm, the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) required the lyrics be changed. Conte reluctantly complied, changing the title of the song and replacing the lyric kant with aahh.

“Serving” and Malta came in seventeenth in the Eurovision song finals on 17 May. But one can’t help wonder if Malta might have done better in the contest had another Maltese synonym for singing/song been used, perhaps serving għanja.

A ver. Eurovisión.
Este año no he dicho nada en el fedi porque aquí somos todos una panda de rojos insoportables. No voy a convencer a nadie de hacer boicot al festival si no se ha convencido ya.
Pero uno está en el mundo, y el mundo comenta. Y lo que más me sorprende es que haya quien piensa que las votaciones tienen algo de honesto.
Yo siempre consideré Eurovisión una pantomima política, y creo que no es una visión errónea.
Antes lo veía como un rato para escuchar canciones de otros países. Nunca pensé que fuera representativo de nada, simplemente era una noche para echar el rato. Pero ya no puedo. Sabiendo lo que sé, no puedo.

So i’ve been wondering about how Israel’s Eurovision song won the popular vote in Eurovision 2025. Their song was weak and Israel is commiting genocide and a lot of people think they should be boycut from the contest. So what the hell just happened, (to quote the British Eurovision song).
