I got an awful feeling Jedward will win everyones talking bout their performance and its been stuck in my head since Thursday although if they do I hope the backing singers get most credit cos without them it would sound worse than what it does.

 

I'm hoping UK top 3 at least, Georgia really grown on me lately and Estonia has the beat, the catchy lyrics, the gimmicky set and routine to win but being so early could stop that

I have a feeling the Top 5 will be awfully close tonight though. Its going to be so exciting. :D

 

Yea, 2009 and 2010 were pretty obvious, this year is much more exciting.

Being early doesn't stop Jedward then?

I'd be very surprised if Jedward finish in the Top 10. I can't see the Jury's taking to it.

 

I do predict that the UK (and ONLY the UK) will award Ireland one of the Top 3 scores though (8, 10 or 12). Wouldn't be at all be surprised if it did end up being 12.

I just realised that Moldova are in final with those Pet Shop Boys -esque hats. Shame their song is what it is.

I don't think Moldova's song is half as bad at what some people are making out. :ph34r: Its just the silly hats, and that girl on the one wheeled bike thing that lets them down...

So You Think You Can Dance is making for a BRILLIANT warm up for Eurovision tonight :wub:

Oh, and yes that Moldova track is as dire as it's being made out to be. Bad vocals on an already poor song is not a good combination.

Dana's crew should've worn those hats and qualified instead :D

 

Lols of the day come from Youtube

I love the 'epileptic trumpet' parts in Moldova's song :lol: It's so bad that it's good!

Quick question for you Eurovision fanatics, a friend of mine asked if postal votes were ever used for deciding the winner of the Eurovision Song Contest? If not, was it used to decide the winner of any of the regional finals?

Given that they are usually broadcast live on a single night I don't see how postal votes would work.

While there is no doubt there is alot of hype around jedward i think the hype wont turn into votes, they will do well in the UK vote probably 10 points, but overall i can see them picking up 1 and 2's, im still convinced Ireland will not finish top 10 tonight.

 

Id love Sweden to win tonight, catchy pop song that was performed and song well, that and Denmark are the 2 songs i really really like and then the UK after that there is nothing else that i am majorily fussed on.

Warm up with a strawberry margarita and my favourite songs :D

 

Do you think Rockefeller Street could stand out? If you think there are Hungary (good song and a great singer) Jedward (good performance, poor-ish song), Saade (very good performance, gorgeous singer but they try a bit too hard) before them?

 

EDIT: 2.000 posts!

Despite telling myself I wouldnt be this year, I've spent the day reminding myself of some of the best entries of the past few years and am now FULLY excited for this. Basically I've been gaying myself up well and proper.

 

Despite reassurance it wont happen, I remain with my stance that I will disown Eurovision if Jedward win.

Only 40 mins! Got my nu-sig for the occasion :wub: As you can see, I'm supporting Austria, Germany, Ireland, Sweden, UK and Hungary :cheer:

They had better not f***ing win.

I remember that the UK's national final had a post card voting system, but pre-televoting the ESC final was just by juries. :)

I now have my massive German flag draped round my neck. BRING IT ON.

Helsinki Gay Pride clearly NEEDS Eric this year.
