Eurovision Song Contest Topic

[Katsuya]

In retrospect, the Serbian entry wasn't that bad, it just didn't deserve to win over Verka. Which I'm now hooked to and repeating on iTunes, broken up by "I'm Like A Bird" by Nelly Furtado.

Plus, ha ha, I recorded the entire event. AND I CAN SKIP THE IRISH BITCH!

EDIT: Maybe we over-exaggerate the Soviet Bloc voting...look at the winners not in the Bloc from 97 - 07:

Finland - 06

Greece - 05

Turkey - 03

Denmark - 00

Sweden - 99

Israel - 98

UK - 97

lol, Wogan.

"IT'S FEARNE! I KNOW THAT GIRL!!!"

The woman with the light on her hand should have won. That shit was crazy.

[Guest tiarnantman]

I actually just read this for fun...

Yeah, you heard that right.

Anyway, great thread. :lmao:

One of the Amy Lee wanabees should've won...

[The Quasi Juice]

I'm kind of addicted to Hungary's song now.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

See, the Hungary song was fantastic! (Y)

[The Quasi Juice]

It should have won. I'm happy with Serbia, but I liked Hungary's more and maybe even Sweden's song. Downloading them now on Limewire of course I'm proud at my 73 posts yesterday too, was worth it ^_^

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Mmm good old youtube.

Birmingham, why you ask? I'm not originally from here though, I'm a Kentish lad.

Im upset to have missed all the EWB fun I was at my Dad's. I thought EuroVision was great until the voting started! I also oddly enough loved Scooch (and not just for Caroline Barnes ). I then downloaded all 24 finalist songs to decide what i thought the order shouldve looked like, and came up with this:

GREECE

UKRAINE

UNITED KINGDOM ( )

FINLAND

MOLDOVA

RUSSIA ( )

TURKEY (And this guy was singing 'Shake it up, sekerim', not 'Shake it up, shake it in'!)

HUNGARY

MACEDONIA

BULGARIA

BELARUS

SPAIN

GEORGIA

LATVIA

SWEDEN

IRELAND

ROMANIA

SERBIA

GERMANY

SLOVENIA

LITHUANIA

ARMENIA

BOSNIA & HERZEGOVINA

FRANCE

EDIT: Upon listening again, ive revised my listing and dropped the UK to third, this Greek song is pretty catchy, and the Ukraine, well, what can you say?

France bottom? I demand you change that.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Why the France hatred? It's a song of genius. Catchy, tongue-in-cheek and excellently executed...And the group has other excellent songs as well... :pinch:

[The Quasi Juice]

Why the hate for the Serbia song. Sure it's not our language and she's ugly as hell but I think it's a very good song.

Second'd

I've got to say I was impressed with the general standard of song throughout the contest. The last few years have been a great improvement.

I liked the Romanian one, personally.

[Adam]

I think Romania had a great idea, but i wasnt too keen on the song

And i thought the Serbia song was bland, it sounds better on my Media Player, but i hated it watching it, it just seemed bland to me.
