Eurovision, AND THE WINNER IS.......

[fizz13]

**SERBIA**



Hi everyone, so I have my PC in the lounge next to the TV. will keep you informed with my expert opinion . Please add your own as we go
So far I've seen

Bosnia (bleh, so so)

Spain was good euro-pop bounce,

Belarus was wailing pain,
Ireland on now, kind of like this one, pretty, anthemic, very nice

Finland are best so far, loved that soft rock sound, she looked excellent

Macedonia :not bad, not brilliant, weird beat rhythm to the chorus thats bugging me, legs are very good, was worried she was going to flash too much actually. predicting Lots of votes for this one

Slovenia: can't work out if it sounds like Charlotte Church opera mode when shes had too many cigarettes, or a Pop Idol reject but someone make it stop please. Phantom of The Opera she aint

Hungary: Bonnie Tyler style voice, good blues track, enjoyed this one

Lithuania: didn't hold my interest, kind of like listening to dinner music in a med resort restaurant

Greece: good euro-pop fun, DD7's fav so far, a vote winner

Gerogia: looks like Catherine Zeta Jones, sounds like Bjork! it kind of worked, had a power behind it, not bad

Sweden: RETRO-TASTIC!! so many influences there from T-Rex to Abba, very cool presentaion, could be a winner

France: flippin nutters, song was ok, heard worse, not many though, and who else wanted that toy cat round his neck to maul him? eeemmmm....no, nil poi!!

Latvia: who died? If not why are they pallbearers for the night? Don't think they're bad singers, just 20 years too late in style, feels like a west end finale

Russia: i had to put the words up for this so i could see if they were saying what I thought they were saying.....and yep they were! Wow, maybe the russians didn't realise what the girls were singing, anyway, not quite Girls Aloud bless em, but I'm sure it will get votes

Germany: well I'll move there since they already know women rule the world lol, quite a good jazz tune, nice effort

Serbiah wow, it reminds me of Epcot in the middle, Illuminations styleee, anthemic, don't like the presentation but like the song, great powerful voice, new favourite!!!

Ukraine: you have got to hear this, Cara, 7, just asked :"MUM ARE THEY UMPER-LUMPERS?" Fantastic, made me roll up laughing, don't think scooch are in any danger here....I really hope not, stranger things have happened.

UNITED KINGDOM: Salted nuts anybody? Oh boy, how many camp inuendos can you fit into one song? I was kind of embarassed and felt a little violated, but it was kind of brilliant too, euro -camp!!

Romania: next please, nope, no thank you

Bulgaria: tribal wailing to a techno beat, interesting combination, tribal drum finale, interesting is what i will say, ok I think

Turkey: a cutie by Turkish standards, wishes he was Ricky Martin lol, a good effort by Turkey compared to some of their offerings in the past, not very good overall,

Armenia: ah yes, the classic handsome crooner, very soul stirring stuff, swear he was looking right at me........sigh sigh! pretty good for a ballad

Moldova: OMG, she must have popped round to Jodie Marsh's for image advice, why why? Good rock anthem, vote pleaser, definately has something

NOW YOU'VE READ MY RECAP, CAST YOUR VOTE HERE, ITS CHEAPER THAN PHONING, LETS SEE WHO THE DIS WINNER IS FOR 2007!!

I'm not watching Eurovision, but your commentary sounds much more interesting than Terry Wogan's Keep us informed and Good Luck Scooch (??sp)

dh says the macedonian singer has nice legs

 

[Goofyish]

Finland my favourite so far.

I agree with Nat's DH about the legs

 

[brightspark]

dh says the macedonian singer has nice legs

I thought we could see too much of them!!!

I liked Ireland and Dh likes Macedonia I think - trouble is we've forgotten already!

I think Terry Wogan is the best bit about the show... said to dh earlier that they'll have to cancel it when he's no longer able to do it - it just wouldn't be the same!

What is with the funny introductions to the songs????

 

[natalielongstaff]

the greek entry reminds me of ricky martin,livin la vida loca

 

[brightspark]

Maria maria!

 

[brightspark]

Interesting sword dancing from Georgia!! Terrible song!

 

[Goofyish]

the greek entry reminds me of ricky martin,livin la vida loca

I thought that too Nat

 

[Goofyish]

Is the Swedish singer a bloke?

 

[wils]

It's even better with the subtitles on!

What on earth are some of the songs about?!

 

[florida sun]

Im just going to read your post Claire, its more interesting than the TV

 

[natalielongstaff]

Is the Swedish singer a bloke?

[brightspark]

Is the Swedish singer a bloke?

I let out a squeal and went 'ooh it's a bloke!'

France sound like someone pressed the fast forward button... I feel out of breath just listening to them!

 

[Goofyish]

We cracked up at the French chap in pink! Song was quite catchy though.

 

[Goofyish]

Latvian G4 on now LOL
