I have always wanted to go to Finland – maybe this summer I will take the plunge. Wonder if I will see those Kling-ons walking down the street….
So I see my top 5 didn’t really work out… ho hummmm…..
Highlights:
The Polish representative who was asleep or drunk
‘This is Poland calling, here are the Polish results from … Poland’The female presenter’s infatuation with the word ‘Amazing’
Malta come last, when I predict them to win.
Thanks for a great thread everyone – it was a lot of fun :D
My final prediction:
Top 5 will be:
malta
moldova
sweden
denmark
romaniaThe winner will be Malta – that would be ‘Amazing’.
ALSO GONE THROUGH MY EARLIER COMMENTS:
Norway – Will lose votes from Ireland
Macedonia – will get votes from Italy, France and United Kingdom
Bosnia & Herzegovina – will get votes from Finland, Ukraine and Macedonia
Lithuania – will get 0 points from the UK
United Kingdom – will get good votes from Italy
Greece – will get 12 points from Cyprus (no brainer there though)
Finland – Poor votes from Mediterranean countriesArmenia is wildcard
**VOTING TIME**
Well who are you going to vote for? We have had rock, romance and confusion.
Top 5 will be:
malta
moldova
sweden
denmark
romaniaThe winner will be Malta – that would be ‘Amazing’.
Armenia summary – Nice introduction, a guy in a boxing setup seems to appear from a giant cheese grater. Now he wants to know if he should live or die without our live. Nobody knows, but if he makes one wrong move on top of that cheese grater, he will have no choice in the matter.
He makes it safely off the cheese grater (has to be against EU health and safety but perhaps they let is slide as he is Armenian) and gets girls to run around him with a ream of black gaffer tape.
Some head bopping, and lots of fooling around with the tape brings this song to its inevitable cliams.
This could be the wildcard of the tournament.
Turkey summary – A white female singer with a tattoo. Never knew you got them in Turkey either – tonight has been a real eye-opener. She is singing something about a superstar, I think all the rest is in Turkish.
Every now and then she screams. Apparently at random. But now I know it is coming I cringe before it even arrives. Now she is telling us that her light will bedazzle us?!?
Enthusiastic performance from the male dancers who are British apparently. The singer spins around, shows us her bottom then tells us that she wants us to feel her.
Good effort, but the cat screams make this a no-no for me.
Next up – Armenia (The final entrant)
Sweden summary – Well we have a female brunnette singer. I thought everyone in Sweden was blonde so immediately they get votes just for teaching me something new.
This woman has an enormously large dress train which is approximately the size of three football fields. If the guys holding it let go, no doubt she would fly off and end up in outer siberia.
She doesn’t let that worry her though. This girl is a true trooper, she throws off the train and lets rip whith people waving white flags all around her (straight from the French set I assume). They surrender as they cannot take any more of the energy.
Strong tip to take the title this year.
Next up – Turkey
Ireland summary – Every song is a cry for love. Apparently. We have a slow love song from the Irish with corresponding green lighting going on across the stage.
Two females and a man in the background are standing there bending their knees in time to the music. Oh and every now and then they sing.
No flag waving, but plenty of green glowsticks in the crowd swaying back and forth. I guess lighters are not allowed indoors anymore.
ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzz that will do. The most exciting part of this song will be the end. It’s only saviour are the cute girls in the background who are probably English anyway.
Next up – Sweden
Croatia summary – According to the subtitles, the opening lyrics are, ‘For the grass has not yet sprouted come on come come come hop on my chicken, the devils are your godfathers’.
Lots of passion about chickens and godfathers and devils, with a catchy tune and some limbo dancing without the pole going on from the singer.
Nice work from the background singers and instrumentalists. Obviously they got less of the absinth after the singer nicked most of it. To prove her state of inebriation she rips off her dress with skill only comparable to the lead brides maid on a hen night in Blackpool.
May just clinch it – I predict it will do well.
Next up – Ireland
France summary – Lots of wailing with some instrumentals. The singer is a blonde with amazingly black and bushy eyebrows. I am awaiting the inevitable glimpse of underarm hair but she must know we are all looking and refuses to raise her arms.
Yup, I think thats about it for this song. A female singer and a guy playing the cello. Boring, safe and middle-ranking for France.
Next up – Croatia
