May 22, 201213 yr I'll read through this whole thread soon, but CYPRUS GOT THROUGH!!!!!!! :wub: :wub:
May 22, 201213 yr So glad Austria didn't qualify with 'Fucking In The Football' (dreadful :manson: ). Really pleasantly surprised Hungary got through. It isn't OTT or MoR, but actually sounds like something that could go top 20 in the UK. If the Compact Disco were an alias of Nero, it'd be a UK hit with the typical Radio 1 support, video airplay, etc...
May 22, 201213 yr Poor brave Latvia :( I saw it coming for her anyway so I'm NOT TOO BOTHERED. I reckon Albania was probably a jury pick.
May 22, 201213 yr Why the hate towards Jedward? Catchy song, fabulous performance. Singing was so and so but who cares.
May 22, 201213 yr Overall im happy with the qualifiers and i know im biased as im Irish but Jedward deserve their place in the final, it was staged well, it was different to the other entries and i think its a catchy pop song too.
May 22, 201213 yr MY RANKINGS; 01 Cyprus 02 Romania 03 Russia 04 Greece 05 Latvia 06 San Marino 07 Belgium 08 Austria 09 Ireland 10 Denmark --------------------------------------- 11 Hungary 12 Israel 13 Switzerland 14 Finland 15 Iceland 16 Moldova 17 Albania 18 Montenegro 6/10 - not too bad, but my top 4 qualified so at least the VERY best actually qualified.
May 22, 201213 yr Greece, Cyprus and Romania were my favourite entries, not fussed with the others. I'm surprised Albania, Russia and Ireland went through.
May 22, 201213 yr Shame there was no Finland or Israel getting through but I'm pleased with what did get through. Jedward aside!
May 22, 201213 yr It pains me to admit it but Albania's entry was clearly going down a STORM in that stadium. It just sounds like one long winded horrendous mess to me. :no:
May 22, 201213 yr THAT WAS TENSE Bugger for Latvia and Finland though. :( I bet they were clogged up in a group of songs near the qualification spot, it was hard to call. I get the feeling it was tight. On the other hand I'm over the moon for Albania. (also Iceland and Denmark but they were pretty much always going to qualify) Edited May 22, 201213 yr by Sabrewulf
May 22, 201213 yr POOR FINLAND. :( And Austria! I echo this.. Finland lost inevitable 20 points from Sweden and Estonia -> no chance Better luck next time. Edited May 22, 201213 yr by SKOB
May 22, 201213 yr I have 6/10 good :lol: almost whole top 5 in finals :D 1 Switzerland: Sinplus - Unbreakable 2 Denmark: Soluna Samay - Should've Known Better 3 Hungary: Compact Disco - Sound of our Hearts 4 Cyprus: Ivi Adamou - La La Love 5 Greece: Eleftheria Eleftheriou - Aphrodisiac 6 Latvia: Anmary - Beautiful Song 7 Israel: Izabo - Time 8 Iceland: Gréta Salóme & Jónsi - Never Forget 9 Russia: Buranovskiye Babushki - Party For Everybody 10 Austria: Trackshittaz - Woki mit deim Popo 11 Finland: Pernilla Karlsson - När jag blundar 12 Moldova: Pasha Parfeny - Lăutar 13 San Marino: Valentina Monetta - The Social Network Song 14 Romania: Mandinga - Zaleilah 15 Albania: Rona Nishliu - Suus 16 Belgium: Iris - Would You? 17 Ireland: Jedward - Waterline 18 Montenegro: Rambo Amadeus - Euro Neuro
May 22, 201213 yr I'm pretty pleased with the qualifiers, Israel is the only one I am geniuinely gutted for, would have preferred them to go through over Greece. 8/10 of my predicted countries went through, but I wasn't surprised at that as Hungary and Cyprus really upped their game tonight. I'd have quite liked Finland to go through to, but obviously them and Belgium cancelled each other out. General comments about the show... I thought the presenters "happiness" was very forced and the atmosphere was a bit flat. Romania's technical glitch was horrible to see and for a second I thought they might do a Jemini! Thankfully they still made it through so hopefully their problem will be sorted out for the final. San Marino and Latvia were endearingly rubbish, whilst Montenegro and Austria were absolute trash! Russia could be in contention of winning now I think, Loreen definitely has a fight on her hands!
