I did review of each of the songs and I must say that there wasn't as many good songs this year.
Hungary is probably my best bet on who is going to win but you never know. Armenia's entry was absolutely horrible and I laughed so hard at it. |

It seems to be the same each year...
A lot of hope, longing, disappointment, very loud, reality the way it goes, frustration and a few happy ones...
Could be interesting to see how it goes with last years winner if they dont win again... |

Like any heterosexual European below 55 years, I utterly hate this shit. Eurovision Song Contest is the work of the devil! It's not even pop music - it's much, much worse. |

Its so awful, I actually enjoy it - we usually have a drunken Eurovision party, complete with sweepstake. But then we did treat the Royal wedding as an elaborate drinking game.
The only year I actually rang in and voted was for Lordy, the Finnish rock monsters - and it won! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KFEtySs-nM
May the maddest entry win. |

One of my favourite Eurovision moments was when the Belgians sent a song which made no sense whatsoever as the words were in a made up language which didn't mean anything.
It came second |

I have a distinct memory of posting in this thread. Either i was under some kind of influence and i failed somewhere in the process or it got removed. I'm guessing the first option is the correct one.
What i said was that i usually disagree with most Europeans as the songs i like are the one that end up last in the contest. But i did like Lordi when they won. |

I think there is a great incentive from national TV companies NOT to win the contest as it means the winning country has to pay for, organise and host the following years contest.
There was one episode of the TV comedy Father Ted ( 'A Song For Europe') devoted to this issue |

Ireland won 3 years running, or something... it nearlybankrupted RTE!
Oh it's a bit of nonsense, and originally so well-intentioned to have a pan-European event in war-wracked 50's Europe to try to bring us together and see each others cultures and similarities through the medium of a friendly singing competition. That said, it is still painful to watch, and 'Europe' seems to cover North Africa and the Middle East too... but the original intent was a peaceful one! |

I tend to keep an eye on this from way over herein the US.
BUt again our TV is full of these kind of shows now..
American Idol, X Factor, America's Got Talent, The Voice, The Next Big Country Star(something like that), Then about 4 more shows on people dancing, Just crazy.. |

Tonight Belgium in the 2nd semi-finals - please don't watch. Embarrassing as it is, I can blame it on the people on the other side of the language border (yes, we do have one like that in B). |

That's because the event was concieved and run by the "European Broadcasting Union" which covers over 50 countries (including most of North Africa and the countries like Lebanon and Egypt (who never send an entry because, I guess, Israel takes part)) |

I know of the show and glad it's not broadcast here. Not that I have any way to watch network TV in the first place.
I'd rather hit one of our local bars (pubs) and listen to drunken karaoke than sit in front of any Eurovision singing. |

^^ They were talking about the EBU on the radio today. Apparently Australian TV is a member. So technically they could enter the EuroVision song contest too, if only they could guarantee the whole country would stay up all night and vote at the same time as the other contestants. I bet they'd win the bloody thing too. |

After years of experience, I would rather hear any song, recorded in a studio, by a professional musician, than drunken karaoke. Watching a man murder 'My Way', while slowly sliding down the wall he is leaning his back on, kills a little bit of your soul. |

^^^No, there are much worse songs than that of Eurovision and The US is known for it. Good music in the US stopped after 2004 (maybe even before that) and you will hear extremely awful music that we produce that becomes popular everywhere.
Examples:
Ke$ha- She has no real singing talent and uses autotune to make up for. Trust me Roy, she'll make your brains explode.
The vast majority of "Country" music (A genre that Americans made up and no offense if you like "Country".)
Paris Hilton attempting to sing. |

Speaking of Autotune about 70% of the acts on the second semi final could have done with a good dose of it cranked up to 11, including that Swedish guy who managed to go through.
And Belgium.... what were you thinking when you chose that band and that song!!! |

Well, Oz is only an associate member, and not a full member. Also, elegibility for the contest is not only defined by membership by EBU, but as "active members of the EBU whose state falls within the European Broadcasting Area" (quoted from Wiki). And the European Broadcasting Area is further (and not quite logical) defined by the International Telecommunication Union as:
Quote: |
The "European Broadcasting Area" is bounded on the west by the western boundary of Region 1 (see below), on the east by the meridian 40° East of Greenwich and on the south by the parallel 30° North so as to include the western part of the USSR, the northern part of Saudi Arabia and that part of those countries bordering the Mediterranean within these limits. In addition, Iraq, Jordan and that part of the territory of Turkey lying outside the above limits are included in the European Broadcasting Area. |

IMHO it stopped around 1980, and whenever Ive been in the US the music in bars and restaurants seems to always be older than that.
Anyway, after the semi finals, you haver to put up with Jedward. We Brits have been stuck with them for a while, now its your turn.

Topic title updated.
I didn't watch the show - more interesting things to do (clipping my toe nails and such).
Did anyone win? |
