The competition was meant for composers and authors, not for musicians. Composition and lyrics only. Not performance, not voices or “beauty” of languages.

That’s why I oppose public voting, because the audience tends to be very superficial. Have a jury of experts in composition and poetry. No music business, but pure art. In the beginning, the jurors voted primarily on the sheet music, without having even seen the performance.

Well that’s not true anymore and I suspect most think that is a good thing.

I know it’s not like that anymore. That’s why I haven’t watched it for at least 30 years. Boring commercial mainstream garbage.
