I rather liked 2011. I'll do a full thing tomorrow, but it had several highlights.
Not least the fabulous winner. Although I'm aware I'm about the only one who thinks this. |

I'm really getting better at formatting these things. Took me half an hour this time. And it's the last year.
 I LOVE BELARUS TO WIN. This post has been edited by Caïn: Mar 18 2012, 08:28 PM |

Far too many good songs to vote for in fact, I ahve about 20 I'd happily give points to.

My highlights and lowlights, although it seems very recently that I was still hammering some of these songs
- Finland's song went on and off me, doesn't he look like a blonde Ed Sheeran though looking back  - Hungary was the loon anthem of choice but didn't even make the top ten in my personal chart! Nice song nonetheless. - Poor Norway, originally thought of as a potential winner and ended up practically bottom of the semi, the song got boring VERY quickly for me though... - Zzzzzz at the winner, a nice song and nothing more, crap vocal performance too. Whatever floats Europe's boat... - Kudos to Jedward for making a name for themselves across Europe with the biggest post-contest hit but I still can't abide Lipstick. - Andreas Johnson sued by Suede/Robbie etc...pays for lawsuit with winnings gained from successfully suing A Friend In London for shamelessly nicking Sing For Me. Really expected New Tomorrow to do FAR better with the public than it did! - Lena was never going to top Satellite in my eyes, and indeed she didn't but it was a worthy defense of her title with a very credible and interesting song. - Bosnia and Herzegovina's entry was so jolly, glad it did well in the final! Bizarre performance though. - Oh dear Belgium :/ Definitely one of the worst entries the contest has ever served up, how did it almost qualify? - Pure class and a stellar vocal from Slovenia, should have done so much better! - I always liked Rockefeller Street but I never got the feeling that it would do much in the final, yet it was hyped as a potential winner. However even I didn't see it doing THAT badly!! - Whoops Turkey and Armenia, even the mighty can fall with lacklustre entries these days it would seem! - Austria - what a voice, what a return, what a song! What an underperformance  If ever anybody needed proof that people couldn't care less what sort of vocal you turn in on the night, Azerbaijan won whilst flawless Nadine and her lopsided fringe died.- A limp and lifeless return from Dana International, who brought a b-side along with her. What was the point? - Finally a home entry I could get behind, Written In The Stars, sorry, I Can was fresh, current and fantastic. A shoe-in for the top five then, except the juries had it in their bottom five!?! Deaf, stupid, both? Gah, I wish it had finished even one place higher, 11th is the WORST. - I really came around to Coming Home but I'd have liked to have seen Yohanna's song competing for Iceland. At least they made the final. - What happened France, whoops! For the record I LOVE Sognu but the studio was indeed far more effective than the live version was. Still, to be the bookies favourite and finish 15th was a bit of a nightmare, should have been top ten at the very least. - I've made my feelings on Italy well documented. Horrible song by a smug singer and I can't fathom why the juries raved over it so universally. I hope this doesn't mean that Italy can just send any half respectable song forever more and finish top five, but I have a feeling that this was something of a one off - just to acknowledge their return perhaps? Nina will do well of course but send something like this again in the near future and I don't see lightning striking twice. - Poor Eric, he WAS Popular, much to the relief of us all, and two points away from winning the televote, all on the strength of a wonderful pop song. Kempe finally came good! For once I'm not going to moan about the wrong song winning Melodifestivalen as this was clearly the right one, I probably hold Spring For Livet and I'm In Love in a similarly high regard but neither would have been right for the contest. - Ugh, do Ukraine just always do well? Angel was a complete non-song, I can't even remember how it goes off the top of my head. Nice gimmick though. - I LOVE that Lithuania got the UK 12 in the semi-final, mainly because I voted for it Dated as hell but a lovely melody that sounded like it had come from some ancient musical- Get You is probably the most pedestrian RedOne song ever, shameful giving it to the motherland to use as an entry! Should have given them On The Floor instead

Belgium had a fantastic performance. The song just clicked with me mere 2 weeks ago! They didn't even have instruments on stage!
Flawless vocals.

The performance and band members were creepy, and the 'song' was horrible.
Latvia already did it in 2006 anyway, with a better song - still not very good mind

One song may have already got 3/4 top marks.

Estonia - incredible piece of fantasy pop, absolutely devastated when this flopped in the final, I'm pretty sure I thought it would win right up until the final night
 !Azerbaijan - continuing an amazing run for the Azeris, I didn't like this as much as Drip Drop and Always, but it certainly remedied their defeats in my eyes. Belarus - the most heartbreaking DNQ ever (Soz Finland 2k11) this song was a nationalist ANTHEM although I didn't realise until the semi that it was actually sung by a woman .Bosnia-Herzegovina - adore this song, totally deserved its success, the staging was incredible and the music to die for. Hungary - always a gay-pop-choon that flops in the final and this was it, I prefer this to Je Ne Sais Quoi, but we all knew this was destined for somewhere in the region of 22nd place. (Although I realise I may have actually predicted this to come top 5 )Norway - such an inspiring song the live performance was a train wreck though, still catchy as crabs though!Sweden - it was great to see them back in the hits and this song totally deserved its success, reminds me of my own life  .UK - great entry this year, shame about the final performance and the juries  Armenia - the first Armenian song for many a year not to be in my personal top 3, but I still have a soft spot for Emmy, Armenia obviously assumed that any song with a repeated word in the title would fly into the top 10 .France - great song and I think it should've done better, I don't think I had this pinned as a winner, but I did think it would make the top 5. Denmark - this was such a credible song and it really resonated with me. Really glad it gave Denmark another good result. Finland - soooo cheesy but really heartwarming Germany - another decent effort from Lena, can't help but think that her Eurovision prestige got her that second top 10. 2011 >>>>> 2010 This post has been edited by xxxxxx: Mar 18 2012, 09:29 PM |

Regarding 2011 (and agreeing with Pavel's 'meh'):
- Sweden should've won. As cringey "Popular" might be it is still by far more of a winning song than "Running Scared" will ever be, and it's probably even more popular than the Top 2 combined. Ha! - Bulgaria should've qualified to the Final with an absolute ANTHEM. - Portugal should've been fined for that APPALLING choice. That is all. And I know I'm alone in (even just) liking the Latvian entry, but that instrumental is to die for .
