ONE
Here is the commentary from Mitoland...
The contest begins
Announcer: Well, that was a perfect opening act - it's set the mood just right for this spectacular WorldVision 44! Now, let's introduce our commentators: Georgìos Thamnéa and Lucè Masdìa!
Georgìos: Well, I have to agree with that! I am impressed by that opening act! What will WV45 come up with?
Lucè: I'm not sure, Georgìos, but one thing I am sure about is that WV44 will be so amazing! Let's get this show on the road!
Georgìos: Yeah, and our first contest act is Polkopia - by Justina Vlašic and called Death, this is one of the fans' favourites! It's just a shame they have the dread of going first. Here they are on their Talvezoutan postcard...
Justina Vlašic - Death - 01 - POLKOPIA
Lucè: Well that was rightfully promising; this will be a true contender tonight unless we have an unexpected winner! That melody went so well with that voice!
Georgìos: Yeah, and may I remind you that Mitoland's is the ninth act in the show.
Lucè: Up next is the host of this amazing WV44, Talvezout. Here they are doing something traditionally Talvezoutan in their postcard...
Isobella Bachelor - Undone - 02 - TALVEZOUT
Georgìos: What... was... that? This is WorldVision, not a ballet school! And her scratchy voice - ugh, so glad it's over - definitely did not live up to Talvezout's sublime opening act!
Lucé: Yeah, I have to agree with that, Geo.
Georgìos: Next up, The Sword Bloke is doing their act. Must say, I've been waiting for this one because it seems very intruiging. Although it'll be dodgy. Beware crowd...
Shop Owner & One-Hit Jimson - End - 03 - THE SWORD BLOKE
Lucè: Well, I don't know about you, Geo, but I don't really like songs that say I'll be bombed, although the melody was alright. Plus, acts with people being killed in them are traditionally not very popular.
Georgìos: That song was so amazing, it's going to be stuck in my head all night! Tonigh-igh-igh-igh-igh-ight, you'll be bombed! Just kidding. It was (censored). I could have died!
Lucè: Well, off they go (thank goodness). Time to focus on act 4 now...
superCOOLownerBAND - A Million Ways To Know Shop Owner Lives In Your Country - 04 - OWNER-OSITY
Georgìos: I loved that. Tune was pretty good, not typical at all!
Lucè: Well, I'm not sure the crowd agree with that, Geo. I mean, look at them! Also, the second act in a row with people being killed! WV44 is being swarmed by madmen!
Georgìos: Yeah, actually, come to think of it, you're right. Oh, never mind. Coming up next is act 5 - this has been prepared very last-minute. Here is their postcard, where they tried fishing...
Retired - DREAMPLANET
Lucè: Oh, we've just received the last-minute news that Dreamplanet have pulled out from WorldVision. What a shame - I remember watching their spectacular entries from past WorldVisions! Dreamplanet will be missed, that's for sure.
Georgìos: Well, I guess you're right, Lu. Up next, though, is Brittanny with their act.
Lucè: Act five. Here's their postcard!
Georgìos: And before the act starts, may we remind you that Mitoland is performing eighth now.
Sophié - Dans Mes Rêves (In My Dreams) - 05 - BRITTANNY
Lucè: A very weird melody there, I'm not sure I liked that!
Georgìos: That woman had everything but a voice! WV is not all about the looks, Brittanny, you know.
Lucè: Okay, okay, Geo. Up next, though, is a song that I have been waiting for - act six, by Ekoz. They always have good acts.
Jorge Sollarmann - The Beginning - 06 - EKOZ
Georgìos: Look, the crowd aren't very happy about that. That was very disappointing, especially for a WV veteran nation.
Lucè: That just had no charm, no effort, no tune. It looked as if he was forced to do it.
Georgìos: Well, let's hope that Arioslavia can bring the atmosphere back up, or then it'll be Mitoland's job. Act seven, here it is...
Belovodye - Slava - 07 - ARIOSLAVIA
Georgìos: Well, that had no good tune to it whatsoever, and nobody was in desire of a patriotic song.
Lucè: Patriotic songs are one thing you should never enter into WV. Still, moving on, it's out turn next! I can't wait to see what Hestava and Senìa, our singers, will have. They tried samba dancing in their postcard.
Georgìos: Let's hope we can bring the mood right back up, this is the moment for Mitoland!
Hestava Mojâ and Senìa Distave - Between Us - 08 - MITOLAND
Lucè: That was not disappointing - wow!
Georgìos: Yes, it may have been typically WV, but I think Mitoland has amazed the world - I loved that melody and their voices were amazing - not to be biased or anything...
Lucè: The proof is in the voting - I can't wait! Up next, for act nine, is the nation of Ethane...
Kristian Dowling - Nothing Wrong - 09 - ETHANE
Georgìos: Really? Since when did these ever have a chance of getting something other than nil points?
Lucè: I really don't know. That was just borderline boring. NEXT! Act ten - Kyzyl Khan 8 is representing New Tuva SSR, what will they come up with?
Kyzyl Khan 8 - Pumpkin Spice - 10 - NEW TUVA SSR
Georgìos: It's just that pumpkin spice!
Lucè: That song is now going around the head of billions of people - it's a shame that it was nearly right after our nation. I think that Mitoland will be awarding points to them, although they have ruined our feel to the WV...
Georgìos: Next up, Robert Gilmore is singing a tune for Mister X... I'm really not sure how this will go!
Georgìos: Well, I have to agree with that! I am impressed by that opening act! What will WV45 come up with?
Lucè: I'm not sure, Georgìos, but one thing I am sure about is that WV44 will be so amazing! Let's get this show on the road!
Georgìos: Yeah, and our first contest act is Polkopia - by Justina Vlašic and called Death, this is one of the fans' favourites! It's just a shame they have the dread of going first. Here they are on their Talvezoutan postcard...

Georgìos: Next up, Robert Gilmore is singing a tune for Mister X... I'm really not sure how this will go!
Robert Gilmore - Kill You All - 11 - MISTER X
Lucè: Not sure I liked the lyrics, and the song had too much of an 80s feel to it. We need to move on from those times - WV should be moving forward.
Georgìos - Kill us all? Don't like the sound of that, just like I don't like the sound of that song.
Lucè: Volusca Primj will be represented by Anica Vastreascjo, and she will sing Just Tonight. Here is their postcard...
Anica Vastreascjo - Just Tonight - 12 - VOLUSCA PRIMJ
Georgìos: That was very refreshing - the whole thing was trendy, Anica had a stupendous voice and that melody and that beat... just so good! A great contender, hopefully Mitoland will award points to this.
Lucè: Yup, and coming up are some brilliant acts. Fourteen will be Electrum's. This year, what would've been act thirteen is actually act fourteen, as one of the band members of this following band suffers from fear of the number 13.
Will Gray and Co. - Your Reply - 14 - ELECTRUM
Georgìos: That was (censored). It's like Vengaboys meeting Peppa Pig, that tune. Not to mention, I have no idea what this song meant - I think it was some kind of love, but I'm not sure.
Lucè: I'm just thinking... Vengapigs... just no. No.
Georgìos: Time for a quick break now, while some interviews take place in the Green Room with the representatives. Thank you for watching this - the acts will resume in half an hour!
Mid-time interviews acts 1-14
Lucè: Overall, I'm not 100% sure that everyone like Mitoland's entry, but I think it could be an unexpected winner - to be honest, most people either find it nice or find it terrible. Like Marmite.
Georgìos: Ugh, that Electrum song was just going too far. Please take that sound away with song 15.
Karolina Rabbani - Kepergianmu (Your Departure) - 15 - ANTAHBRANTAHSTAN
Lucè: Wow! You could really feel that emotion being conveyed through the song and her voice... just wow... I hate to say it, but this could be a better version of our song.
Georgìos: The crowd certainly agree with that - oh no. But moving on, let's see song sixteen, called Looking Out for Ya by Zekso. It's representing Estogium.
Zekso - Looking Out for Ya - 16 - ESTOGIUM
Lucè: A nice upbeat number from Estogium, can't wait to see how nations vote on that - people either love it or hate it.
Georgìos: Me too, Lu. Up next, is Niltche Eriksen representing Aloquirbe. Here is an image of him posing for a pic.
Lucè: What a tiger!
Georgìos: Well, it's a coincidence that the caption describes him as a tiger too...
Niltche Eriksen - Our Right, Unite - 17 - ALOQUIRBE
Georgìos: I think the whole world is in agreement that the song would have been better sung by Elouisa. Niltche had everything except musical ability there. And that matters. How has he achieved three Christmas #1s?
Lucè: But the tune was good.
Georgìos: Yeah.
Lucè: Next is Normandy & Picardy. Here we go...
Desmat - Fools - 18 - NORMANDY & PICARDY
Georgìos: Desmat think that was cinematic. It wasn't. It's trying to be more than it can - it just sounded heavy and dreary. Ever heard the expression 'more is less', Desmat?
Lucè: I have to agree there, Geo. Let's see if act 19 cam cheer us up...
Georgìos: Hope it can!
Sun Brigade - Naştere şi cuceri (Rise and Conquer) - 19 - BLOODBATH GENERATION
Lucè: Those lyrics just do not go with that tune.
Georgìos: And the lyrics were brilliant, just it was completely the worng tune! Totally agreed, Lu!
Lucè: Up next, a song with no tune, I wonder how this will do in the voting.
Operator - Fight On - 20 - OISINISTAN
Georgìos: Nobody was expecting an a-cappella song. I found it somewhat boring. Should get lost in the voting.
Lucè: Well, WV's 20th act seems to be a place to have a break. Let's check on the Green Room where acts 14-20 will be interviewed...
Interviews act 15-20
Lucè: Not sure I liked the lyrics, and the song had too much of an 80s feel to it. We need to move on from those times - WV should be moving forward.
Georgìos - Kill us all? Don't like the sound of that, just like I don't like the sound of that song.
Lucè: Volusca Primj will be represented by Anica Vastreascjo, and she will sing Just Tonight. Here is their postcard...
Anica Vastreascjo - Just Tonight - 12 - VOLUSCA PRIMJ
Georgìos: That was very refreshing - the whole thing was trendy, Anica had a stupendous voice and that melody and that beat... just so good! A great contender, hopefully Mitoland will award points to this.

Lucè: Well, WV's 20th act seems to be a place to have a break. Let's check on the Green Room where acts 14-20 will be interviewed...
Interviews act 15-20
Georgìos: We have Izmedu's song in store for you up next...
Nema Minorca & Konstanca Vrebac - Hearts of Iron - 21 - IZMEDU
Lucè: You can tell how much effort Nema and Konstanca have put into this cinematic track; they used the best of their voices and a powerful track. If you combine them, what do you get? That song.
Georgìos: Yes, Lu, and I fear it might be the one that takes our points away...
Lucè: Nope, our act wasn't actually too bad. Actually, we say it's our best act ever, others can't make sense of that. However, if our act was completely rubbish, it'd still be the best, because it's our first. It's a trick to entice, I think.
Georgìos: That's quite clever! Up next, though, Bonestock will represent Kalosia.
Bonestock - Together Forever - 22 - KALOSIA
Lucè: That sounds all too familiar. So typically WV, that it gets boring.
Georgìos: And look at the crowd. Booing and hissing. I'm unimpressed as well.
Lucè: So, for act 23 (which will hopefully lift the mood here) Electrum Diplomatic Offices are doing their thingy thing.
Georgìos: Yeah, their thingy thing. Totally makes sense. Start the postcard...
Gertrude Pullman - Juicy Ass - 23 - ELECTUM DIPLOMATIC OFFICES
Lucè: Ah, Gertrude Pullman's back.
Georgìos: And she's singing about juicy asses
Lucè: Quick, show act 24 before I throw up!
Renée - I Prayed - 24 - THE SARIAN
Lucè: It's not bad. The song is pretty clever, the lyrics are quite nice, but... hanging from the stage? Just no.
Georgìos: It's not bad, but not great either. It makes me feel no emotion whatsoever.
Lucè: So let's try and give you something to feel with act 25.
Georgìos: Yes, we're getting into the later stages of the night. Act 25 marks at least the 3/4 point normally.
DISQUALIFIED - BOLGE ARAZI
Georgìos: Er... let's swiftly move on.
Lucè: And now, the representatives for acts 21-24 will be interviewed while we have a break. The voting now opens, however it is recommended that you see all acts first.
Georgìos: To vote, call 3781 and add the act number afterwards.
Lucè: Or you can text WIN to 3781 followed by the act number you loved afterwards. Remember - you can only vote once.
Georgìos: If you want Polkopia to add to their successful WorldVision heritage with a win tonight, call 378101.
Lucè: If the act of the host was the one you loved most, call 378102.
Georgìos: If The Sword Bloke had you blown away, call 378103.
Lucè: If Owner-osity owned you with their act, call 378104.
Georgìos: If Brittanny would win in your dreams, call 378105.
Lucè: If you wanted Ekoz to win from the beginning, call 378106.
Georgìos: If Arioslavia was your favourite act, call 378107.
Lucè: You cannot vote for Mitoland, if a Mitolian phone number has called or texted 378108, your vote will NOT count.
Georgìos: If Ethane's song had you on cloud nine, call 378109!
Lucè: If you want a little more pumpkin spice in your life, call 378110.
Georgìos: If Robert Gilmore killed you all with your love of his act, call 378111.
Lucè: If you want Volusca Primj to have the glory just tonight, call 378112.
Georgìos: If you were electrified by Electrum in amazement, call 378114.
Lucè: If Antahbrantahstan is the country you want to win, call 378115.
Georgìos: If you think Estogium's Zekso was zeksy, call 378116.
Lucè: If you want to give Aloquirbe their right to win, call 378117.
Georgìos: If you think Normandy & Picardy reigned over the fools, call 378118.
Lucè: If Bloodbath Generation sealed your vote, call 378119.
Georgìos: If you want Oisinistan to fight on and win WorldVision 44, call 378120.
Lucè: If Izmedu's was your favourite entry, call 378121.
Georgìos: If you want Kalosia and a WV44 win to be together forever, call 378122.
Lucè: If you were impressed by Gertrude's juicy ass, call 378123.
Georgìos: If you're praying that The Sarian is going to win, call 378124.
Lucè: Bolge Arazi has unfortunately been disqualified for secret reasons, so any votes towards 378125 will count towards the next act, by Adab. Do not call 378129, that is the number for the British embassy! This could land you in huge trouble.
Georgìos: The final acts are coming soon, see you in 15 minutes!
Interviews 21-24
Lucè: Up next - the number of the act has been changed to 25 now.
Kinan al-Salaman - The Soul Laments - 25 - ADAB
Georgìos: Although that song was what we needed, and the lyrics were good, we do NOT live in 1966. Let us spool forward to fifty years after that.
Lucè: And the crowd are completely silent - they don't love it, don't hate it. Just like I feel. Call 378125 if your soul laments all the others but you love this.
Georgìos: Next is something just as gentle to soothe your mind. Act 26, here it is.
Panseline - Life Goes On and On (Day by Day) - 26 - LYMANTATIA
Lucè: Can I just check with you, Geo, that we are in 2016?
Georgìos: We most certainly are. Why?
Lucè: Because this is the second song in a row that sounds like it's from the middle of the 60s.
Georgìos: And these lyrics were awful. So repetitive (chorus played 5 times) and the two verses have meaningless lyrics. At least with Pumpkin Spice the tune was at least good and up to date.
Lucè: I know none of you are going to do this (please don't) but call 378126 to see Lymantatia win.
Georgìos: Now let's take that bad taste away from our ears and start act 27.
Henrik Lang & Gabija Yamaguchi - Set Us Free - 27 - TODLICHEBUJOKU
Lucè: That was beautiful, although it was somehow boring as well.
Georgìos: True, I didn't know what to feel.
Lucè: If you liked that act the best, call 378127. Up next, act 28 which is the last act of the show...
The Sunny Sunny Girls - (It's Okay, Because) I Believe - 28 - KASANOVA-KORATICA
Georgìos: This is possibly the worst edition of WV I've ever watched, and I've watched this since I was a child. This act just made it worse.
Lucè: Combining eroticism with religiousness is not going to go well. Especially not in WorldVision.
Georgìos: I completely agree. Oh, and adding to what I said earlier, Mitoland's is one of the only decent acts here, making it a brilliant contest to debut in!
Lucè: Well if you believe in this act, call 378128. And that completes the acts of this WorldVision! It was a pleasure to be the first commentators to represent Mitoland!
Georgìos: The current top ten trending hashtags on the WorldVision Tweeter page currently are:
Lucè: I'm pretty interested in number 6 there, it suggests that Mitoland may be a dark horse!
Georgìos: Maybe we could seal a win! Who knows?
Lucè: Well, we're nearing the very end of the performance stage of WorldVision, the results will be announced soon!
Georgìos: And remember to vote by calling 3781 followed by the act number, or text WIN to that same number of whoever you want to win.
Lucè: Alternatively, you can vote via the app! Follow the instructions on the voting interface there.
Georgìos: The voting will remain open for exactly ten minutes from NOW! The voting will end once the results commence! While the voting happens, the acts 25-28 will be interviewed!
Lucè: Good luck Mitoland! We're revealing the results first! But now, just before the results commence, there will be a lovely interval act!
Nema Minorca & Konstanca Vrebac - Hearts of Iron - 21 - IZMEDU
Lucè: You can tell how much effort Nema and Konstanca have put into this cinematic track; they used the best of their voices and a powerful track. If you combine them, what do you get? That song.
Georgìos: Yes, Lu, and I fear it might be the one that takes our points away...
Lucè: Nope, our act wasn't actually too bad. Actually, we say it's our best act ever, others can't make sense of that. However, if our act was completely rubbish, it'd still be the best, because it's our first. It's a trick to entice, I think.
Georgìos: That's quite clever! Up next, though, Bonestock will represent Kalosia.
Bonestock - Together Forever - 22 - KALOSIA
Lucè: That sounds all too familiar. So typically WV, that it gets boring.
Georgìos: And look at the crowd. Booing and hissing. I'm unimpressed as well.
Lucè: So, for act 23 (which will hopefully lift the mood here) Electrum Diplomatic Offices are doing their thingy thing.
Georgìos: Yeah, their thingy thing. Totally makes sense. Start the postcard...
Gertrude Pullman - Juicy Ass - 23 - ELECTUM DIPLOMATIC OFFICES
Lucè: Ah, Gertrude Pullman's back.
Georgìos: And she's singing about juicy asses
Lucè: Quick, show act 24 before I throw up!
Renée - I Prayed - 24 - THE SARIAN
Lucè: It's not bad. The song is pretty clever, the lyrics are quite nice, but... hanging from the stage? Just no.
Georgìos: It's not bad, but not great either. It makes me feel no emotion whatsoever.
Lucè: So let's try and give you something to feel with act 25.
Georgìos: Yes, we're getting into the later stages of the night. Act 25 marks at least the 3/4 point normally.
DISQUALIFIED - BOLGE ARAZI
Georgìos: Er... let's swiftly move on.
Lucè: And now, the representatives for acts 21-24 will be interviewed while we have a break. The voting now opens, however it is recommended that you see all acts first.
Georgìos: To vote, call 3781 and add the act number afterwards.
Lucè: Or you can text WIN to 3781 followed by the act number you loved afterwards. Remember - you can only vote once.
Georgìos: If you want Polkopia to add to their successful WorldVision heritage with a win tonight, call 378101.

Georgìos: The final acts are coming soon, see you in 15 minutes!
Interviews 21-24
Lucè: Up next - the number of the act has been changed to 25 now.
Kinan al-Salaman - The Soul Laments - 25 - ADAB
Georgìos: Although that song was what we needed, and the lyrics were good, we do NOT live in 1966. Let us spool forward to fifty years after that.
Lucè: And the crowd are completely silent - they don't love it, don't hate it. Just like I feel. Call 378125 if your soul laments all the others but you love this.
Georgìos: Next is something just as gentle to soothe your mind. Act 26, here it is.
Panseline - Life Goes On and On (Day by Day) - 26 - LYMANTATIA
Lucè: Can I just check with you, Geo, that we are in 2016?
Georgìos: We most certainly are. Why?
Lucè: Because this is the second song in a row that sounds like it's from the middle of the 60s.
Georgìos: And these lyrics were awful. So repetitive (chorus played 5 times) and the two verses have meaningless lyrics. At least with Pumpkin Spice the tune was at least good and up to date.
Lucè: I know none of you are going to do this (please don't) but call 378126 to see Lymantatia win.
Georgìos: Now let's take that bad taste away from our ears and start act 27.
Henrik Lang & Gabija Yamaguchi - Set Us Free - 27 - TODLICHEBUJOKU
Lucè: That was beautiful, although it was somehow boring as well.
Georgìos: True, I didn't know what to feel.
Lucè: If you liked that act the best, call 378127. Up next, act 28 which is the last act of the show...
The Sunny Sunny Girls - (It's Okay, Because) I Believe - 28 - KASANOVA-KORATICA
Georgìos: This is possibly the worst edition of WV I've ever watched, and I've watched this since I was a child. This act just made it worse.
Lucè: Combining eroticism with religiousness is not going to go well. Especially not in WorldVision.
Georgìos: I completely agree. Oh, and adding to what I said earlier, Mitoland's is one of the only decent acts here, making it a brilliant contest to debut in!
Lucè: Well if you believe in this act, call 378128. And that completes the acts of this WorldVision! It was a pleasure to be the first commentators to represent Mitoland!
Georgìos: The current top ten trending hashtags on the WorldVision Tweeter page currently are:
10. #SunnyOrRainy?
9. #WorldVision44
8. #WorstWVEver
7. #GeorgìosAndLucè
6. #DarkHorseMitoland?
5. #MurderOnStage
4. #GetOutGertrude
3. #DouzePointsPolkopia
2. #WotJustHappened
1. #LetsBanShopOwner
Lucè: I'm pretty interested in number 6 there, it suggests that Mitoland may be a dark horse!
Georgìos: Maybe we could seal a win! Who knows?
Lucè: Well, we're nearing the very end of the performance stage of WorldVision, the results will be announced soon!
Georgìos: And remember to vote by calling 3781 followed by the act number, or text WIN to that same number of whoever you want to win.
Lucè: Alternatively, you can vote via the app! Follow the instructions on the voting interface there.
Georgìos: The voting will remain open for exactly ten minutes from NOW! The voting will end once the results commence! While the voting happens, the acts 25-28 will be interviewed!
Lucè: Good luck Mitoland! We're revealing the results first! But now, just before the results commence, there will be a lovely interval act!
Interval Act
Georgìos: I have to say, I enjoyed the interval act even more than the opening!
Lucè: Me too, although the only thing it could've improved on would be to make it a bit less, you know, okay, it's perfect.
Georgìos: No way! Lu just said something was perfect!
Lucè: It would only last for 35 years. Now let the results COMMENCE!!
(Suddenly, the MBO falls off air accidentally for the first time since 2007. WV has to be paused)
Georgìos: Sorry about that, it wasn't your TV box! It was the main broadcasting system: it was struck by lightning. All systems have been temporarily moved to the Blakomé Studios.
Lucè: WV was paused for us while we were gone, so now...
Both: LET THE RESULTS COMMENCE!!
DURING RESULTS
Georgìos: Yes, a few points.
Lucè: Maybe we could have a top ten?
After 6 countries revealing
Georgìos: This is preposterous! This is why we never participate in WorldVision!
Lucè: Yup, all the crazy totalitarian communist dictatorships (who normally make up 60% of the countries) vote for the stupid acts. For crying out loud, Gertrude Pullman is doing better than us!
Georgìos: This is no exception. I would advise that Mitoland enters a completely (censored) act next time. If we do, then we would obviously win! I have finally found the formula of WV! I am a genius!
After 10 countries revealing
Lucè: What?!? This is just borderline stupid.
Georgìos: The Sword Bloke has more points than us. EDO do. In fact, a nation who has just got one ten points, would beat us. These people have no taste in music.
Lucè: Next time's act is better than this time's act I think. That means we will do even worse next time.
Georgìos: We haven't got points since the 4th country.
After 17 countries revealing
Lucè: That was an ominous interview with OHJ and Shop Owner. Don't like them.
Georgìos: WERE YOU EVEN LISTENING TO THE PREVIOUS VOTES?
Lucè: Er.... no. Sorry.
Georgìos: WE GOT TWELVE POINTS!!
Lucè: Nah, you're just trying to trick me.
*replays*
Lucè: For crying out loud, we have actually got (I think) 21 points now! That should be enough to not come last. We should aim for 15th-23rd, somewhere like that.
After 18 countries revealing
Both: ANOTHER SEVEN?
Georgìos: Now (I think) we have 28 points. Not bad, I guess for a debutante.
Georgìos: I have to say, I enjoyed the interval act even more than the opening!
Lucè: Me too, although the only thing it could've improved on would be to make it a bit less, you know, okay, it's perfect.
