Montenegro 2025 - Bend 9 - Stop War

 



Seeing as we were a bit late kicking off this term we completely missed telling you about the unexpectedly early joys of the first Montenegrin final since yer Nan was a lad. Rather then just picking a local popular fave - or even just not bothering like they've been doing of late - they elected to hold a long-winded sixteen song final that chose a right mutt of a song called Clickbait through a mix of punter and jury voting. Although as it turned out they shouldn't have bothered, as the lass that came second pointed out that it had been released months earlier, and that she was the only fair and true winner. And so it transpired that the whole sorry farrago was for naught and they sent the only singer that anyone in Europe may vaguely have heard of. Bloody waste of time all that was!

But who came last - plum last - in such an illustrious field, we're sure you don't hear you ask. Well it turns out that it was a rather out-of-place chunk of rampaging true metal calling for a cessation of the world's wars. Heck that was much heavier than we'd have imagined of this contest - the first five rows must have needed peeling of their seats when that finished.

But rather than everyone chucking the devil horns up and agreeing with its very prescient sentiment it got nothing at all from the jury, and a paltry 143 televotes. It seems that there's not such an appetite for world peace in Montenegro after all…
