August 25, 201014 yr ...but don't listen to it :kink: I loved the studio version of Disappear :wub: the live performance was a train wreck though, lucky for them Bulgaria gave it the full 12, even if everybody else had ears :mellow: No Angels will be forever tainted for me now thanks to hideous Nadja's behaviour :( Though I do still ADORE Daylight In Your Eyes, no matter how much of a Ray of Light rip off it is!
August 25, 201014 yr I also loved the studio version. At one point, "Disappear" was 3rd in my rankings :heart: Was it mentioned during the live shows that a member of the band was from Bulgaria? Perhaps on their commentary, or maybe she's known over there. That must surely be why they gave them 12pts, but I didn't think a casual Eurovision viewer would know if a member of an act was from a different country to the one they are representing.
August 25, 201014 yr I think one of the No Angels members was a judge on Bulgarian Idol? Seem to recall reading that somewhere... Regarding the point about a metal act being our entry in 2011, Pythia would be great :wub: G-AaY00F6UI
August 25, 201014 yr I think one of the No Angels members was a judge on Bulgarian Idol? Seem to recall reading that somewhere... Yes, Lucy Diakovska. http://www.seitenblicke.at/uploads/tx_userstblartikel/lucy.jpg
August 25, 201014 yr WE ARE FLYING THE FLAG ALL THROUGH THE WORLD WE ARE FLYING THE FLAG FOR YOU <333 Nostalgia I'm sure.
August 25, 201014 yr Fair enough, I guess it was the recognisability factor that scored her points. I suppose if Louis Walsh sung for Ireland one year, the UK would inevitably pass a 12 his way too with rightful nuls guaranteed from everywhere else :drama:
August 25, 201014 yr People i would like to see.. Cross out if you disagree VV Brown The Saturdays (Would help them all across europe!!) La Roux Sugababes Ellie Goulding Paloma Faith

September 3, 201014 yr The Sugababes management have been quite successful at killing the Babes career and brandname thus far, they don't really need ESC for the final nail, they sacked Keisha. That nail was hammered in a year ago.
September 3, 201014 yr I think you need an unknown artist but purely talented and with a good song. Like it was with Jade.
September 3, 201014 yr or we could pay Lady Gaga a billllllion pounds to write a song and sing it for us, then we'd win fo sure ha Seriously though... if the BBC do not get it right next year, i think they should have it taken off them and given to ITV or just new management? because they are just wasting money/p***ing off the country and turning the contest in to a yearly joke. Maybe they should be reading forums like this for ideas and not asking radio 2 listeners LOL for advice... how does that even match the target market of eurovision for christ's sake! It needs to be an x factor style contest, even if it is only like judges rounds on fri, semi finalists on sat, and finalists on sunday... then they need to promote everywhere properly like jade ewen and make a decent music video, get it all over the tv/radio to get support etc
December 28, 201014 yr The latest rumour going around is that Charlotte Church may represent us next year :o
December 29, 201014 yr I don't think it matters what rumours go into circulation, if the BBC can't afford/don't want to host the Eurovison Song Contest in 2012 then they will ensure that we send some embarrassing mess like most years to Eurovision. Thinking back to earlier this year, we had rumours of Katie Melua and Hurts showing interest. 'The Flood' went on to become a big hit in central Europe. As for Hurts, they've had more success in Europe than they probably will ever have in the UK. -_- Just imagine had 'Wonderful Life' been the song that represented the UK in 2010.
December 30, 201014 yr I don't see why everyone says putting someone on eurovision is embarassing and it messes their status up. If i was anybody looking to break the European market i would love to do this.. Look at Lena she did incrediably well around europe. If somebody like Eliza Doolittle, Pixie Lott, Marina and the Diamonds wanted to break europe why not do this it's perfect there is over 60m+ watching around europe?

December 30, 201014 yr I'd love to agree with you Lee, but the last time Eurovision launched an international career for a UK performer was Gina G in 1996 :lol: It seems to be associated too strongly with the "curse of Eurovision" over here, which doesn't seem to exist in other countries, but nevertheless means that a UK act that enters Eurovision will never be taken seriously, or have a hit, again. That is the only good reason I can think of for Jedward entering... :kink:
