Eurovision Song Contest

Anyway, will work on the best and wort of the rest of Eurovision shortly.

Actually Lena's voice doesn't suit singing at all

Proves how corrupt Eurovision and the music industry is today.

Bulgaria's song was cool - Moldova's gave me a seizure

Can someone please explain Cyprus' song to me?

@Slime: Valid and excellent point.

Can someone please explain Cyprus' song to me?

You mean, lyrics?

I mean the entire thing

Just finished watching the Semi-Final 2 on BBC iPlayer and I would drop Ireland (worst song ever) and Moldova.

Eh, just about some guy that can't be with the love of his life/ his angel blah blah
the usual stuff.

Supporting Austria and France, they have great songs.

Last year, the song was awesome. But it was a bit too ahead of other songs. Probably because, as I heard, a famous writer written it. I believe. XD

But this year...why? Why again? It is okay, the song is cool, but it is kinda annoying now. Also, her accent is just...not natural!

Anyways, this year the contest is pretty interesting. I have no favorites for now, I just try to enjoy the whole thing.

I am extremely happy that those Dutch people are not in the finals. Couldn't be happier!

The guy behind Kylie Minogue, Jason Donovan and Rick Astley wrote ours last year, and last year ours was the second worst song ever... after Ireland's this year.

For those without TV access.

Sign up, and it'll stream english TV to your PC for free.

On BBC1, you can catch live Eurovision

Promising Start - the Aussies are watching, apparently.

Not so good, one of the hosts is singing last years winner worse than Lena did.

EDIT: Since they got all the contestants on stage right now, why didn't Lena do it in the first place?

I'm currently watching the final on TV.

Lol

Irish Oompa Loompas and Garden Gnomes from Moldavia.

So far I'm planning on voting for Italy and Estonia..

You took the words out of my mouth.

Is it me or are the backup dancers and singers upstaging the actual singers, which by the way are pretty weak this year...?

A bunch of Europeans singing like with fake American accents. What's not to like? Just heard the Greek song. Noice.

Congratulations to Azerbaijan.

I'm happy for Italy, who came second.

Well, my mom really liked United Kingdom. They were awesome.

I liked almost everyone from the top.

I have officially denounced my citizenship of the United Kingdom after we gave Ireland 12 points

Well done Azerbaijan.

Switzerland came in last... how is that possible... HOW?

Andeavor wrote:Switzerland came in last... how is that possible... HOW?

Answer: they got the least points.

Opinion: I don't know at all, how did Ireland get ANY points? How did Moldova get ANY points? Why did Azerbaijan win? However, the Swiss song, like pretty much all the songs was average at best. Although I liked Georgia's song, it wasn't terribly well executed, I honestly thought Denmark should win. Sweden's song was repetitive and egotistical so I thought it didn't deserve anything.

Bulgaria and Cyprus should have gotten through the semi's too, but no, Ireland and Moldova made it. Europe as a whole has no clue on music and the UK is just as guilty as anyone else - afterall, we gave Ireland 12 points. And before you ask, if I do not like the music that much, why do I watch? because it's funny and occasionally, you get a gem. No gems this year though.

Yeah, pretty much the only one that I liked. I've already forgotten the winning song.

Lol, just their name is enough to leave one doubtful.

Jedward.


I also can´t remember Azerbaijan´s song. But I do remember when they sung it a second time, after winning, the woman was having a tough time hitting the right notes.
