its sweden for me.

Rocket_Man · 19-05-2012 4:33pm

For me, Denmark and Sweden have the best songs but I've a feeling the Russian grannies are going to be very difficult to beat.

:mad:

She had far too much talent to get mentioned in the same breath as the shíte that passes for the Eurovision.

Someone posted this last year, but it's needed to kick off the thread:

Just watched Jedward doing the jury rehearsal. Great performance!

LizT · 22-05-2012 12:14pm

Hope Jedward do well, they seem to be getting great support out there. Fair play to them.

LizT · 22-05-2012 12:16pm

Still can't believe this didn't win.

The two of them were robbed! :mad::mad:

LizT · 22-05-2012 12:21pm

Just saw a clip of their rehearsal, they have a water feature on stage! Really hope they get through.

Chucken · 22-05-2012 1:17pm

Only 10 hours long? Awww. I suppose I'll have to click replay clip now.

coconut5 · 22-05-2012 2:55pm

Haha, yeah, but it's great. Is this the official Eurovision thread? Or will After Hours be better?

OakeyDokey · 22-05-2012 3:52pm

Jedward did really well last year so fingers crossed they have the same luck this year, I don't think they'll win but I hope they'll wipe the face off the people who shot them down.

I've heard United Kingdom's song but not anyone else.

I just like the funny comments about Marty.

The Icelandic song is good. Jonsi from Sigur Ros is singing it with another girl.

Really? Wow. Iceland are sending a genuine artist and we're sending those two talentless muppets. I don't know whether that speaks better of Iceland for taking it seriously or us for not.

soccymonster · 22-05-2012 5:36pm

Aaaaaaaahh, it's great to be back for another year of Eurovision with ye lads

Although I'm fullllly convinced Sweden will win. Unless she completely flops.

(I was supposed to go to Eurovision this year but fockin' Azerbaijan had to win so praying for a closer country to take the title this year or I'll possibly cry

)

LAV the Romanian entry. Really catchy and it's in this semi-final tonight.

Talentless Muppets? So what does that make of the hoards of people around Europe that voted them into 8th place last year and the majority of voters and jury's that voted for them to represent Ireland this year. Whatabout the millions that have bought their singles and albums around Europe as well as attending their concerts?

Ah now, I've actually watched Jedward's jury thing from last night where they sang for the jurie's and it looks like they are gonna be ridiculously rememberable and the stage is amazing.

I reaaaally hope this thread isn't gonna turn into another Jedward bashing thread tonight. WHY CAN'T WE ALL JUST SUPPORT OUR COUNTRY'S REPRESENTATIVE?!?!?

Jonsi in Eurovision? Really? Crazy....

I mean, I love Eurovision and watch it devotedly each year but you gotta admit, he's way above it. :pac: Must go watch that now...

Edit: Sounds very, very un-Sigur Ros or typical of Jonsi's solo stuff. Still good though.

Actually, I learned from Eurovision Wikipedia that Jonsi also had an entry in 2004:

I'm beginning to question everything I've ever known. :eek:

Hahahaha just saw in the related videos '5 worst eurovision songs ever' Donna & Joe are doing Ireland proud in third place.

coconut5 · 22-05-2012 6:05pm

Haha, remember this:

njals_saga · 22-05-2012 6:46pm

Not the same Jonsi.

Silvio.Dante · 22-05-2012 6:59pm

Best of luck to the stunning Leanne Moore and the lads tonight...
