Eurovision 2015

[Colly]

Andrew WK on drums for Russia.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

I'd like to see a good vs evil fight between the Russian and Georgian women.

Ahhhh gay pride flags for Russia. Putin's favourite!

[Gazz]

I seriously need to move to Eastern Europe...

[Colly]

Who's getting MORE than 3s at the moment Colly?

I think there are a number of very strong songs but also a lot of songs are blending into each other as there's a real lack of gimmicky, uptempo or quirky songs.

If the Russian girl wasn't Russian I think she'd win it.

For what it's worth this is my top ten, it's a bit arbitrary and there were definitely bonus points for singing in own language, boobies and 'singer played up front for Newcastle':

Israel (9) - It'll get nowhere but was amazing.

Latvia (8) - Ace

Estonia (7) - Nice enough

Sweden (7) - Alright

Norway (7) - Bit dull, but sounded good.

Australia (7) - Bruno Mars b-side

Georgia (7) - Definitely helped by the sea of dross towards the end

Lithuania (6) - Fairly good

Spain (6) - Decent

Italy (6) - Proper Italy

I also had Serbia on a 6, there were a lot lower. Armenia got a 2, UK/Birdseye Potato Waffles/Doop got simply the word 'Rats'.

I liked Norway's to be fair. One of the better ballads.

Sweden's would actually have been better with the inclusion of some kind of dubstep in the chorus....and I rarely ask for more dubstep.

'singer played up front for Newcastle':

I think we can all agree Ketsbaia's gender reassignment surgery was a complete success.

[Colly]

Definitely would.

Fuck yeah Morrigan from Dragon Age.

[stokeriño]

They're sounding completely insincere about this trophy on purpose, right?

[Colly]

Belgium was one of my 3ers, can't remember it now.

Twitter has helped me through tonight, especially Limmy. Falconhoof reference on Georgia was amazing.

Now you've gone and linked her to my beloved Claudia Black!

[stokeriño]

Obligatory pity point from Malta. XD

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Montenegro's top 3 are worrying.

Azerbaijan always do well with utter pap.

[Colly]

Actually won on the footie today so I've got a total of eleven English pounds on this. See how that goes.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Is that the top three already?

[Colly]

I hope not. Who the fuck votes Russia?

[stokeriño]

Belarus knew that if they didn't give Russia 12 points they'd be getting invaded tomorrow.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Glad Italy didn't score well there. Don't want them to win.

My Latvian girl's chugging along ok.

I hope not. Who the fuck votes Russia?

Belarus knew that if they didn't give Russia 12 points they'd be getting invaded tomorrow.

...and THAT'S why countries vote for Russia. The crowd getting less enthused about Russia.

[Colly]

Moldova love Gavin Peacock!

[Liam]

I think I've pissed £15 up the wall.

Oh well.
