At some point we’re going to have to discuss San Marino’s ‘Battle Of The Bands’ setup 1 in 360, but for now, let’s just raise an eyebrow and move on with the rest of the news this week. Four more songs declared, and more line-ups for National Finals are settled. Plus we have Serbia putting on a show like it’s the late twentieth century.

    Does “contest producer” equate to being a “showrunner”? Not sure I like the sound of that.

    By the way, I noticed you pronounced “Canção” wrong. The “-cao” in “Canção” is pronounced with a soft c-sound, similar to how you the “sound”.
