I’m surprised there has never been as much notice paid to the fact the subtitles translate lyrics that are not in English.

That was a massive thing when it was introduced probably in the late 90s via 888 on Ceefax. Although I remember trying it last year (not via Ceefax of course) and it didn’t seem to work and the lyrics came up in their native language. So perhaps they stopped going to the effort sometime before this years contest where they went all out.
