Walliver 0 Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Walliver It's not political, it's a bit like saying Birmingham it's not shit. We can't win because every cunt hates us, and most of Europe are inherently racist. If it was a fair contest, with the echelons of British music down the years, we'd have won 40 times, Ireland twice and Sweden one. Dana International oh dear. Everyone hates us, no one votes for us, boo hoo hoo. Oh, wait. We did quite well this year. Everyone must love us again, right? And if you can explain to me why every country suddenly loves Norway when two years ago they got just 48 points, that would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably this: For the first time, voting in the final was split between televoting and panels of musical experts, which was supposed to reduce the incidence of predictable and neighbourly votes.

snakehips 0 Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 I've watched, and loved, Eurovision for 30 odd years (probably more), but last night just finished it off for me. I found the whole thing soooo tedious. Good job Norway won it. After all, who the fuck wants to have the astronomical expense of staging it in the current climate (I suggested a long time ago that losing contesting countries should all combine and pay for the hosting for the winner). The Nogs have a few Krone to spare, what with their oil and gas revenues, so they can have the pleasure of staging it in '10. Did anyone see A-L Webber just before the votes? '....we're by no means a shoe-in..' WTF was he on???? Our song was fuckin abysmal and was 'sung' dreadfully. In a way, I'm glad I found last night's 'show' so bad. I can walk away from it all quite happily as a result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 14013 Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 I don't know why we go to such efforts. Why not let a small indie/punk band just go mad with it one year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soccermom 0 Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 I thought malta's entry was fantastic tho a little 'disney-ish'. Graham norton was interviewing arse-face and he said we're supposed to sent our best artist over and they were whining about us sending, jade, no offence to the lass - she did a stirling job, but ffs, we can do loads better than that, we're overrun with artists that are fantastic, fair enough we have to think eurovision/camp/trash when we pick them but why not go for something like: catfaced sophie ellis bexter/Mica/right said fred or we could roll out the master of all cheese and invite Mr. Richard Astley. Oh yes the king himself..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meenzer 15718 Posted May 19, 2009 Author Share Posted May 19, 2009 And if you can explain to me why every country suddenly loves Norway when two years ago they got just 48 points, that would be great. Probably this: For the first time, voting in the final was split between televoting and panels of musical experts, which was supposed to reduce the incidence of predictable and neighbourly votes. Nah, they won the televoting-only semi-final too. Not that you care. And nor should I really. Just found this, don't know if he could actually carry it off now, it may be percieved as more creepy than cheesy! Apparently he's turning into Andrew Lloyd Webber. The signs are all there!

Billy Castell 0 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I'd love Rammstein and Muse to do Eurovision, it would be hilarious. Divine Comedy once did a song for the Culture Show called Trafalgar. Can't find a clip, but it was good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
