Title: Who loves Eurovision.
Post by: The Mighty Mopdecai on 19 May 2006, 07:07

Who here loves Eurovision and who wants Lordi to win. Yes I am that sad I will be taping it as I am working but Eurovision is the greatest excuse to have a party ever.!

Yes! I do! (Although I think taping it is going a little too far!) The main reason I watch it every year is to listen to the commentary by the one and only Terry Wogan!! Also, to see just how predictable the voting patterns are.

I haven't heard Lordi's entry (but friends have talked about it at school), so I'm going to stick with being patriotic and say "GO DAZ!" (even if it is a really bad song, but then that's the meaning of Eurovision surely.)

Terry wogan FTW thats the only reason I watch it (that and the ludcriously bad songs) did you see the band that sang "We are the winners, vote for us"? at least I think the song was that anyway.

I'm glad that death metal band got through, I want them to win because of the sheer abserdity of thier costumes :D

The danish contribution is abysmal as usual, its been years since we had an even tolerable song. The last good song we had was back in the 60's or was it the 50's? Everything since has more or less been shite.

Hah, that was awesome.  It was Iceland's entry, and the singer was actually an actress playing a role.  The whole thing was a massive piss-take.  Sadly for Iceland, Eurovision is an irony-free zone.  Still, with the tendency of countries in the one region (ish) voting for each other, I'm hoping that Iceland will vote for Finland and vice-versa - because seriously, two best entries of the night.
