My post has a glaring error. Change '5th' to '17th'. :o
It should be forbidden to sing in non-native languages.
Bosnia and Impossibletospellina are next! :DDDDD
Herzegovina I think
It should be forbidden to sing in non-native languages.

Poland's entry was amazing. If it doesn't make the final, then voting is seriously ****ed up.
Tell me then does Finland go to the finals :D
After Poland comes Belgium :)

After Belgium comes Malta.
Oh I had other music on the background. Changed my opinion of Belgium's entry.
Oasis is loud, okay, don't judge me xD

The last one will be painful.
Take my word for it.
Personally I think Belgium's entry, like Sweden's, is generally okay as a song, but just not in line with what (I think should be) the 'spirit' of the Eurovision Song Festival songs. The Dutch commentators however seem convinced it'll find a place in the finals...
Legend of Lara
25-05-10, 19:48
Malta seems relatively inoffensive.
Albania is on now!
Tom Dice reminded me of Jason Mraz xD

^^ Thank you by solving our entry >_> Finland is the 2nd best! (But I still hate our song... Kuunkuiskaajat, phew...)
I think that these countries might win:

Greece (I'm from Greece :P)
Iceland
Moldova
Norway
Romania

As I said, I have a couple of albums by the duo's original band, Värttinä. They've certainly made better songs than this entry, but I still like it. :D

In a way I don't find it appropriate for a song contest, and it also remind me of old Abba songs.
Of course, that is my opinion.

Eurgh, The serbian song is CRAP, why is it in? Terrible singing, and stupid song. :mad:
I don't mind most of the others that got in, though.
Based on what are these few countries allowed directly into the finals? I highly doubt it's because of the quality of their songs... Well, except Germany. :D
They are the countries that the contest needs (wants) to participate (pay).
The UK, France, Spain and Germany have always contributed the most money to the EBU and running of the song contest. If they were barred from a contest (which used to happen to the worst entries the year before) or weren't in the final, then they wouldn't really want to pay out to keep it running. The EBU wants to keep them paying, basically (and the contest would probably not be affordable without them).
As for Norway, the host country is automatically in the finals, it makes some sense. It doesn't happen with other contests though, like the World Cup, but I think the Host country might also have to contribute a larger amount.
Calm down, probably meant as a joke anyways. It's not uncommon to think that you Greek are vain about your country though :p But you are not the worst. You get that everywhere.
Don't kill me. Please.
Opa?
Just one mention of it and the song is stuck in my head. Agh! ''People let your light shine... da na na na naa...''
Lol,I won't! ;) I actually sometimes myself think that I'd preferto be an Egyptian because I love their ancinet civilization and culture!
Okay I agree with you on Egypt, but I dare not to think what kind of entries they would put in to a global song contest xD

They give reasonable points to the UK entrants. And we all know certain countries "stick together". Damn the BBC need Terry Wogan back as host, he saw the Eurovision for the political farce it became :vlol:

Well yeah, that's true. It is getting pretty easy to guess which son-...I mean country is going to win, based on how many "friends" they have :p

Still, the predictions of last round's winners were for the most part entirely off the mark.
I keep hearing how the Contest has turned into a political game. I joked about it myself earlier, but other than hearing about it, I honestly don't see it. Yes, voting patterns exist, but it is much more easily explained by shared taste (due to culture, language etc.) and migration than it is by so many individuals apparently having so strong feelings about certain countries that they spend their time, effort and money of voting based not on what the whole Contest that they do apparently care for is about but rather on these feelings that they supposedly have; feelings that are said to be "political", even though everybody that cares even a little about politics - let alone enough to base a vote on - realizes that this has absolutely nothing to do with the Contest.
No, I don't buy it. Who here knows anyone that votes for a country's song purely and solely because they like that country? Who here does that himself?

I didn't like most of the songs last night, most of them were predictable and cliched by Eurovision standards. Despite that, it was still a bit of entertainment on an otherwise dull Tuesday night. :p

Terry Wogan made the show worth watching, at least when it came to giving out the points. Nil-point.

i hope Azerbaijan does not make it into the final although they are going to be in it:mad:
I hope Finnish commentators are different than years 2000-2009... I hate Jaana Pelkonen (Eurovision hostess 2007, with Mikko Leppilampi) and Peltsi. (Can't remember his real name!) I just hate them! (Jaana was before hostess of Finnish gaming program TILT.tv. It presented newest games of the world etc... It fit to Jaana)
