Eurovision Fact #486:
Daði Freyr did not get to perform live at the Eurovisions he participated in due to the 2020 contest being cancelled, and a member of his band getting COVID in 2021.
However, he was invited back to the 2023 contest to perform as a part of the Liverpool Songbook -- the Grand Final's interval act. He decided to sing a rendition of 'Whole Again' by Atomic Kitten for the event.

getting a lil emotional thinking about how eurovision 2020 exists in this liminal space of never having happened but we got all the songs, we got a running order, we went through NF season. but it's an empty space in all the stats and a permanent historical mark

Yesterday it was been four years since Go_A’s Solovey won Vidbir and therefore was chosen to compete in the Eurovision Song Contest 2020.

Day 3 of Go_A facts until their Edinburgh concert
Solovey, meaning nightingale in Ukrainian, was the band's original Eurovision entry for the 2020 contest which was unfortunately cancelled due to the COVID 19 pandemic. The song is a lament as the singer expresses how they are no longer able to be with the person they long for.
Personally I don't think this would have done better than Shum at Eurovision.

Eurovision Fact #505:
The lead singer of Go_A, who represented Ukraine in 2020 and 2021, Kateryna Pavlenko, uses a vocal technique from traditional Eastern European culture known as white voice. White voice utilizes a full sound, free volume, and open throat. This technique has been practiced since ancient times.

last nightly contemplation for now – but i think it’s too funny that some of y’all seriously believe ukraine is only succeeding thanks to pity votes when ukraine has been routinely delivering quality entries for years
