    Hell yes, I will watch the Eurovision. I love it, I've hardly missed a show in years.
    It's cheesy nonsense and a lot of the songs are terrible. But it's lots of fun. I love seeing which countries have sent their own private jokes (like when we sent Dustin).
    The whole thing is just great!

    Yes I will be watching :D

    I LOVE Eurovision...hubby not so much :(:(:(:(

    About 5 years ago he said to me (after me moaning for years that I want to go to Eurovision) that we'd go the 1st time Azerbaijan won it.
    Needless to say,last year I was THRILLED :D
    Off I went on my interwebs,found flights for 450e each woohooooo......
    ahhhhaaaa I didnt count on the aul Arzerbaijani government to block All hotel bookings til January of this year for the week of the contest. The prices in hostels had gone up about 6trillion* %
    Barstewards :mad:



    *not quite but you get the jist
    needless to say Im not in Baku typing.....

    No I wont watch it, but I may as well considering that it'll be all I'll be seeing posts about in my Facebook news feed for the duration of the event. Breaking away from the online world wont help either as my family'll be watching it on the TV :rolleyes:

    Austrian entry's lyrics:

    http://lyricstranslate.com
    We are ready, jewellery 24 carat, our beer has 12 degrees
    Dialect, yeah, the two of us are stars, looting bars, we are ready
    And all the people shout: “Heya heya hey”
    We are party indians, wear feathers on the head

    And now get your bosom out, the noodle soup gang arrives
    Rednecks, yay, haven’t seen such exuberance for a long time
    And they dance and they shake at the pole, at the ceiling
    I am enchanted, rednecks, look how they sprawl, uh-huh…

    Come on, shake your bum, shake your (ooh ooh)
    Shake your bum, yeah, yeah, that’s the way I like it
    Come on, shake your bum, shake your (ooh ooh)
    Shake your bum, as you are what I want

    And I enter the club, the ladies have fine jewellery
    But it’s there, there, where you don’t expect it at first
    I only look at her, she dances at the strip pole
    I’m ready, chap, lots of women, I don’t miss out on anything

    “Noodle soup gang, what’s up?” and everybody shouts: “Ho ho”
    And women are dancing, they only go low, low
    She twists me around her finger, she wants a winner, winner
    And then she can jump, jump, booty shake, bad finger

    Come on, shake your bum, shake your (ooh ooh)
    Shake your bum, yeah, yeah, that’s the way I like it
    Come on, shake your bum, shake your (ooh ooh)
    Shake your bum, as you are what I want

    Come on, shake your bum, shake your (ooh ooh)
    Shake your bum, yeah, yeah, that’s the way I like it
    Come on, shake your bum, shake your (ooh ooh)
    Shake your bum, as you are what I want

    Your bum has feelings, your bum is a part of you
    Don’t put it on chairs, your bum has an opinion, yeah
    Your bum wants movement, so shake, shake, shake
    Your bum wants encounters, come on, give it what it needs

    Your bum doesn’t get tired, your bum tells something about you
    Come, shake it, it wants it, so that the house starts vibrating
    Your bum has to be ready, so shake, shake, shake
    Your bum has to be ready, come on, give it what it needs

    Come on, shake your bum, shake your (ooh ooh)
    Shake your bum, yeah, yeah, that’s the way I like it
    Come on, shake your bum, shake your (ooh ooh)
    Shake your bum, as you are what I want

    Come on, shake your bum, shake your (ooh ooh)
    Shake your bum, yeah, yeah, that’s the way I like it
    Come on, shake your bum, shake your (ooh ooh)
    Shake your bum, as you are what I want

    makes me feel kinda fuzzy...kinda warm and sexy like

    I'm a joker,
    I'm a rocker,
    Hold me baby, love me baby, forever, ever, ever
    I'm shocker,
    I'm a poker.
    Got no fear, got no tear baby,
    Never and never.

    I'm a talker,
    And straight-walker,
    I'm a broker,
    Evil-blocker.
    Got no fear, got no tear baby,
    Never and never.

    I'm a slaker,
    Trouble-breaker.
    Fortune-maker,
    Care-taker.
    I'm a just a womanizer.
    Let me be your supervisor..............................

    I'm a poker....let me be your supervisor. LOL

    I remember that Lordi song, it was good.
    10 times better than what we are sending over.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,731 ✭✭✭✭entropi


    The title beside the Belgium entry on the profiles reads 'Would You?'

    Yes, yes I would ;) :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 230 ✭✭oterra


    I'll watch it on the portable under my bed so nobody can see!
    Its always been that way.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,758 ✭✭✭✭TeddyTedson


    Not a chance I'll watch it.
    It was funny with Terry Wogan but even then it was still **** and probably something better on.
    It's run it's course, like the rose of tralee.
    Sometimes we just have to let things die. :)

    Out with the old and in with the new.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,775 ✭✭✭✭kfallon


    When's it on? Can't say I'll be tuning in tbh


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,069 ✭✭✭✭LordSutch


    Saturday the 26th 8pm BBC1 HD.

    Will be watching it as we nibble on our Eurovision BBQ with friends & family.

    C'mon you Russian ladies :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,758 ✭✭✭✭TeddyTedson

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,189 ✭✭✭✭Galwayguy35


    I'll bet the novelty has worn off Jedward this year and they won't make it through the semi final.

    Will totally be watching this. Frickin love the euro-vision. My heart stopped for a minute when I read this thread title, as I thought I'd missed it. Phew.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,369 ✭✭✭✭ejmaztec


    After watching BBC Panorama last night, I'll be watching the Eurovision to see if there's a coup while it's on, and for no other reason.

    There's a mutual hatred between Azerbaijan and the Armenian over a border dispute, and in the previous Eurovision the feed for the Armenian entry was cut so that it wasn't shown in Azerbaijan. Some people in Azerbaijan still voted for the Armenian entry, even though they didn't see it, because they used their vote as a protest against their own government. Needless to say, the secret police tracked these people down and rounded them up for questioning, asking them why they voted for Armenia.

    The Armenians aren't showing up to appear in the contest because they're in fear of their lives.

    They're all nuts.

    I will just to hear Marty Whelan's pathetic petty comments about other countries voting structures when its clear our joke entry isn't going to win.

    No! graham Norton's commentary is so much better as he obviously thinks the whole thing is one massive joke.
