Hendrix Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 Anyone watching it? It's utter tripe this year, with all the Baltic states voting for each other for yet another year. Couple of good acts though... Which were you favourite? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revolver Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 (edited) I'm not watching it this year. Them f**kn euro states all voting for each other is a load of shit. It completely makes the contest unfair and pointless. Wankers. I'm trying to picture a russian family saying: 'Lets vote for that english chap, his song was good.' 'No, lets vote for the slovenians to say we're sorry because our government oppressed them with our communist regime and crushed their ability to develop.' 'Ok, love, lets do that.' Bollocks.

TheCircus Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 The amount of interest you have vested in the Eurovision song contest seems downright insane, it doesn't even make sense because if someone has genuine talent they wouldn't want to be associated with the contest in any way, so all you are left with is a bag of bollocks performers. Why would you even have a problem with other countries voting on the basis of political reasons, if they voted because of the quality of the music I'm pretty sure the competition would end with 'nil points' for every person on it.

Hendrix Posted May 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 I love Ireland though. They had a singing chicken puppet, but didn't get to the finals. I know this may sound racist, but do you reckon the reason we didn't get any this year is because there's a black guy singing up front. No offence to him, he was good. But many countries are very very racist, and probably don't like the fact we've got a black guy up front singing. We're at the bottom, again? And I think Russia will win.

Good point In that case, lol at the whole eurovision thing. Even more lol at when Jordan tried out for being England's entry. f**k that.

Revolver Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 (edited) crrrrraaaig dayyyvid Craig David, however is not a fan of the show (Bo selecta!) and has spoken out against Francis several times, claiming that Bo Selecta has ruined his career because he is no longer taken seriously and that his image has been damaged substantially. hahaha Edited May 24, 2008 by Revolver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revolver Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 lol England are last. f**king loosers. Course we lost. What do people have to do to be in eurovision? All of our entries have been new artists, but Lordi already had a fanbase and AFAIK had recorded. So it can't be that the entry must be a new artist.

ogre Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 eurovision needs more metal, sweeden should enter in flames they'd win every time... lordii were epic shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munkee Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 i lol'd throughout the whole thing. Watched with gf and her parents and wogans comments are champion. He got all emotional at the end saying whether some countries including the UK should bother entering next time. It is such joke and i dont think wogan will be hosting/etc anything with it anymore. Spain was the biggest shit ever France was even bigger shit Uk was OK and should have beaten those 2 on talent but sadly euro isnt based on talent =p russias oil seemed to have swayed it this year =p suprising since thye seem to keep turning the pipes off and on to some of its neighbours when they feel like it lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoze Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 Mum and sister were watching it last night, and Wogans comments are just brilliant, the way it sounds like he utterly loathes eurovision is awesome Made me lol at regular intervals Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
club_card Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 The spanish guy started out as a joke on a famous tv show here but everyone voted for him for a laugh and in the end he ended up doing it!!! i dont know if anyone saw his song but if you understand what he says its funny. I didnt see it in the end who won? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Booth Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 I only watch it for Wogan, he's comments are the best thing ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich J Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 Pirate song shoulda won in my opinion.... Apparently already well established acts hate entering for fear of their careers being ruined. It is a bit rubbishy how everyone votes purely on the country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavyn. Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 Wogan when they were announcing the points lol 'In your own time dear' ... 'she won't be doing it next year' ... 'well that's malta off my christmas card list' i laughed so much at those Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
