This eurovision year feels so....different

I don't know about you. But somehow the choice of entries in many countries feels so different from previous years. Many countries are breaking out of their usual pattern and sending completely different songs. Sweden hasn't sent an English-language pop song that is planned down to the smallest detail for a long time. Instead, we get an authentic Swedish-Finnish sauna song that simply puts Sweden in a completely different, positive light. While many of the songs often seemed cold and calculating despite their professionalism, this simply radiates pure joy. Then we have Germany. A country that has repeatedly attracted attention in recent years with very simple English pop songs. Now they simply send a contemporary club bop in german. The Latvian entry also seems so different compared to previous years and actually shows local musical sounds. All Big 5 countries sing in their national language. We still have a few bops and somehow I have the feeling that Eurovision is moving into a new era. Am I exaggerating or do you understand what I mean?
