Earlier this week, a record-breaking 266 fans voted for their favourites of Eurovision 1983. In Grootyvision, we vote for the songs, not the countries; and "Chai" is still a fan favourite although its win was narrow. Detailed results at www.grootyvision.com. 1984 next!

We watched and voted on Eurovision 1982 recently. These were our results! Spain, Portugal and Turkey did much better than real life.

Thanks, Tony, for sharing this. We've just had our first BlueSky recruit a few days ago, and hopefully we'll get a second. Though Facebook has recruited over 50 I think!

You don't actually even need to join Discord to vote any more, though it's good for the conversation with the rest of the community. Just register at www.grootyvision.com and you can then vote from there.

I think it's very much of its time too. You hear that bass line and know it's the mid 70s.
