Eurovision
 

Anybody watching it?

I have better things to be doing with my time.

I'm not, too busy with the new level :D.

Then why the hell did you start a thread about it if you don't even watch it? That's dumb.

Becuase I wanted to know who was watching it. Just to get a rough guess of how many people are actually interested in it.

Strike Witch likes it, further proving my hypothesis that only a weird subset of fag likes it.

I think I best show my lover that post.......I did get a text from him tonight asking if I was watching it. I can only assume from that text that he is watching it.

Strike Witch likes yaoi and anime.

Shut up.

I was invited by my best friend's family to spend the evening with them and eat curry, it was on in the background while we played board games.

What I don't understand is why the songs are always so terrible - The best entry this year was France, mostly because their entry wasn't a cheap, shallow, mass-produced pop song, unlike most of the others, with many of the songs being an insult to music.

Last year my ex's family had it on while we ate dinner together. The Finnish had an entry that was sung by one of the singers from the band Värttinä. I mean I love Värttinä and their Finnish folk music, but that entry was as terrible as the others - It was painful to watch a normally talented person stoop so low. Augh.

If what you say is true, then why didn't Rebecca Black represent America?

Because she's too bad.

Oh, then Justin Bieber will have to do.

I believe he mentioned talented people, Justin Beiber doesn't fall under that category.

is canadian (and i hate him)

Greece respectfully disagrees.

EUROvision.

Think about that for a second.

Now I feel and look stupid........................
:(

Ah sorry - It was silly on your part but I didn't intend to make you look stupid.

I was discussing this with my friends this evening, actually. If America did compete with other countries in a song contest though, then indeed, they probably would chose that crappy song performed by Rebecca Black as their entry. The style of that song fits right in.

Finland's entry was so stupid.

Posting in this thread only now

this was my favourite song

Now not posting till finale so I don't get spoiled~

that wasn't that bad

I liked Turkey, but they were voted out.

The Serbian chick was hot as hell, yarrr

THAT WAS AWFUL!

And her singing voice was abysmal!

Was it DINGOO? :P

Sadly no, and it's DIGGOO.

Ah. Well, he should have represented Finland.

Azerbijan won.

AKA that European country nobody remembers

Ah well, their song was nice.

And Ireland did not win thank god

I'll assume that has to do with Jedward, and not the Irish in general.

I really wanted them to win just to see the Irish banks crash again trying to afford hosting it. Again. And glad Britain tried to help by giving them all our points! HAHAFUCKINGHA!

But it's all political so no wonder Azerbaijan won it.

Republic papers were majorly pissed Jedward represented them. Not just because they're shit, but because they're from Northern Ireland.

It would be like Kim Jung Il managing the South Korean national team.

That's perhaps the worst analogy I've ever heard, and I do philosophy.

That hurt deep, man.

Real deep.

The UK weren't last this time. because they entered a band from 10 years ago.

Grats to Azerbaijan and all, but I was only rooting for three teams:
Italy, Moldova and the UK (patriotism; we didn't listen to the song, we just sang God Save The Queen and imagined that as the entry ;p).

Italy were so damn classy, and Moldova... GNOMES, man, GNOMES! And fairy princesses on unicycles!

I watched it drunk at a friends house. We all rooted for Moldova.

But I can't believe Sweden came third. It was a dreadful song. Jedward were a better entry than that.

- Rexy

Moldova should have won. They had hats and sounded a bit like Gogol Bordello.

At one point the UK was winning! What a minute that was!

And at one point Ireland was beating us. Yikes.

My lovely horse... Running through the fields...

Also, Finland would win with this.

Wow. Just saw the voting. Is it pure coincidence that so many countries voted for their neighbours?

That's been the case for years now.

Next year's entry from Georgia: Please Don't Invade Us Again Russia! The Musical.

I never knew that country even existed until last year.

That, and Andorra. Little tiny spot between France and Spain.
