SOAD for Eurovision

hamsterboy

From Wikipedia (I know I know)

System of a Down has shown a keen interest in representing Armenia at the Eurovision Song Contest 2009 to be held in Russia next year. However, the soloist of the band, Serj Tankian, has openly stated in a recent visit in Finland that this will be under one condition: if they will be able to use Eurovision as a way to make the much-debated Armenian Genocide issue known. "Esc would be an excellent way to make this theme known. We must seriously think of this."

Now theres a Eurovision I'd go to!

Now theres a Eurovision I'd watch three and a half (average song length) minutes of.

And yet they would probably come last , just because of the calibre of the avareage Eurovision song contest voter.

Might be good if Serj is the one singing... Daron wrecked the last two a bit in my opinion..

So they would be representing their country, and then make a genocide about their country more known? i really dout thats going to work!

well the whole point is that the turks deny there was any genocide and nobody talks about it. So its about time someone shouted instead!

Same as that.
Always preferred Serj singing with System but his solo album was kinda weak
Scars just ROCKS!!!!

Bluergh, cant stand it (or serg's album for that matter), i find ''They Say'' to be too generic protesty for me, i dunno

Daron singing might help SOAD win judging by some of the "talent" that has won recently:D
