actually, i think this is quite a strong song. and is possibly one of the most serious entries the UK has had for a bit...

is that allowed???

i meant by established artist/album things.

didn't they have a rule in the past stopping this?

though i spose yer man andy is too. and many others.


I can't remember anything about it

apart from there NOT being a rap in the breakdown section. Poor show.


can't listen to or watch that at work

but the best thing about Eurovision is it ending. And - of course - Wogan getting progressively more pissed and brazen as the night drifts on


The Turkey from

Ireland must win it just to show how stupid the whole thing is. I cracked up when i saw the video on youtube


totally forgettable

and without the required political cartel of states in support I can't see us getting anything over last place


It's about politics and general public feeling towards other countries.

Therefore it really doesn't matter how amazing that song is (I didn't listen to it) we won't win.


we will

not win for YEARS because of the war.


no

we are hated and there are now so many little countries who all enjoy voting for each other.
I don't really like Andy the binman either. He's a bit rubbish. If only Morrissey would do it.


more chance than usual

but the songs a bit too good and not trashy enough


So far

the Bosnian entry is my favourite. Just not too sure about somebody who pairs a Rupert the Bear outfit with heavy eye make-up.

Nothing I've heard so far stands out as a winner, though.


Scratch that.

I've just listened to the French one and like it more.


I don't care

even a tiny, tiny bit.


you do

...otherwise why post a reply?


oh bosnia

cant afford much more than a chicken for a prop can you lolz


It's OK

but not really a good enough song or a good enough performance to win it.

But at least it's not as horrid as Latvia's: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltx9ucC4NMA#


god

thats not a scratch on me in the shower.


you realise that will win

all they need is some kind of crazy pyrotechnic show/people dressed in monster costumes. Its just about over the top enough to make it.


00:20 - 00:29

the sound of angels.


Ahahahaha

we have a winner!


no, without even looking...

everyone hates us.


You know countries such as Azerbaijan...

do they take it seriously?
