Eurovision
 
Oh gawd, The UK has selected another novelty song....

Oh well, I can always help the wife cheer for Spain instead.

What has your country chosen for Eurovision this year?

Jatsie 03-17-2007 02:18 PM

Please, not the talentless hacks dressed as cabin crew! :(

Once again our country will be shamed. :frown:

When Wogan announced Cyndi as the winner I was happier.

What song did the UK choose? You hear next to nothing about this contest here in the US.

Aren't all countries involved shamed?

Actually, we had a pretty good singer this time. A german Jazz musician. He sings everything in German too: Roger Cicero.

I am *so* glad they didn't choose those stupid "Monrose" (okay, they're not that bad, considering they were cast. But I much prefer Roger Cicero. Much more original).

This one - Flying the Flag (for you) by Scooch. Ignore the video that somebody else has come up with - it doesn't at all convey how camp the real performance is.

Thanks for finding that Dale.

Now I know why you're all :frown:.

Hrrg.. Norway is competing with a salsa - Latin rip-off song ("Ven a bailar conmigo").
Famous artist here in Norway, lots of flashy backgrounds, feminine male dancers with bare chests, short dresses, and a change of dress behind big feathers..

Heard it before? :shifty:

Edit: You can hear it here: http://www1.nrk.no/nett-tv/klipp/221749

Hee what. I don't know who votes for this stuff. :~

I was hoping for everyone to be jumping on the "novelty monster metal" bandwagon, but no such luck. Never mind - they'll see. THEY'LL SEE.

Maquisard 03-17-2007 06:14 PM

Oy, not this fucking thing again. Oh well, I guess I'm "interested" now.

Giligan 03-17-2007 06:20 PM

Say, where have you been, Marqusard? Haven't seen you around in a bit.

Sorry, off-topic post. I don't really know anything about the subject of the discussion.

Maquisard 03-17-2007 07:25 PM

Oh, just too preoccupied with school and work to post. I still habitually drop in to check out some threads now and then though.

Back on topic, I wonder what the Serbian Kazakh offering is like this year. Utter and complete shite, I suspect.

Catbert 03-17-2007 07:50 PM

Just like everyone else.

Kolzig 03-18-2007 03:55 AM

And the finals will be held in Finland, damn...

Oh well, hopefully we will get the good old zero points again. ;)

Jazhara7 03-18-2007 04:59 AM

German Entry

What do you think of it?

At least I *think* it is Jazz.

It's too good to have a chance of winning.

Was only a matter of time - the real thing.

Jatsie 03-18-2007 05:45 AM

It makes me cringe. I don't know how they can perform it without dying of embarrassment.
