Have to say I never watch ESC really but as the line-up was decent this time around and a bit for us younger people im happy with what we are sending out to Germany, think we can go pretty far especially if loads of the votes will be from people around 18-30.

Here's ours (Sweden), what are your countries going to send out? Please post. (Please include the live-performance because on CD you cant really judge as it will be 10 times better)

Eric Saade - Popular

In my honest opinion we should of sent Danny Saucedo's In The Club instead as I think its a bit better.

I was not happy that he won. It wasn't the best song and there was quite a few false notes from him.

I prefered The Moniker who came third but despite trying to vote for him several times I couldn't get a single vote on him (and I wasn't the only one it seems).

To quote Drogba: - "It's a f*cking disgrace!"

Eric Saade won because he's young and sexy :angry:

The Moniker? Oh god the worst song ever, I tried to vote for Danny but the phone call didnt register so that ruined it for me.

He did get the most votes from the international jury as well so thats good signs and I think we will do good in Germany, eastern europe tends to like these kind of pop songs!

It was between Saade and Danny and surely cant do worse then last year :D

No, I agree with you there. Last years song was awful. I seriously can't understand how it ever won. I don't think I've met anyone here who liked it. So I wonder who actually voted for her. Did some insanely rich person spend all his fortune on voting? :unsure:

Actually, Ingvar Kamprad (the IKEA guy) dropped several places on the list of the richest people in the world. Perhaps he had the hots for her?

As for The Moniker. Did you really dislike it? I simply loved it. Been listening to it over and over again for the past week now. Makes me happy and I can't get enough of it.

Might as well post it here just so more can see/hear it

Mmmm... it might be more convincing if the singer didn't look like a human condom!

Ireland is sending Jedward which is revenge on Europe for the poxy interest rate on that recent loan you gave us.

Frank Lebeouf really needs to stay off the burgers.

Not really interested in the competition, but apparently this is Finland's entry this year:

I've no idea who the singer is...

Yeah didnt like him when he was in Idol either, simply just not my taste :P

How do you know all this?? I have no clue what garbage my country is sending in this time, but as usual the garbage won't survive the preliminary round anyway.

It's pretty big over here, think its the most watched programe in Sweden and the Final was on TV yesterday.

Don't you have your own little eurovision in Holland to vote for whoever you want to send to Germany?

After they have to put up with them 2 cretins the next loan you get will be as much as you want for as long as you want, interest free. Just dont send them again.

Well last year you sent this song, so I can understand why you don't follow the competition

Oh now I get it.

You know it's the first time I heard this! How embarrassing, I think I'm going to take on a different nationality. I do NOT want to be associated with this!

Marry one of the "brothers" then you can have Johnny Logan!

Eeeeeeek! It's not worth it! Isn't Logan dead by the way?

Johnny Lgan dead? I don;t think so. Are you thinking of Jimmy Logan?

Anyway, even a dead Johnny Logan would represent Ireland better than Jedward would!

I have no idea who Jimmy Logan is, so it might be wishful thinking on my part :)

Can't we just abolish this whole Eurovision thing? It would prevent so much aggravation.

Jimmy Logan was a Scottish comedian, who had a sister called Annie Ross, who was a brilliant jazz singer.

Yes, I'll give my vote to terminating Eurovision. Moosie will never speak to me again. :Whistle:

So no douze points from Sweden, tough :)

It's a silly competition, but I'm capable of ignoring it totally, so I don't really care one way or the other...

This is the French entry for this year - a Corsican song

Saddest thread ever created on the Shedend/CSR makes you wonder if it's not time to call it a day

The first semi final was today and it kinda sucked. So many bad songs and even some of the few that were really good failed because their performance sucked. Hungary had a good song, but the performance was crap and the singer couldn't sing too well neither.

Norway had a very happy song that I kinda liked, but she couldn't sing so it lost out on a place in the final.

Madly in love with Finlands song though. So simple, yet so great.

Finland and France are my two favourites now.
