Posted April 2, 200718 yr QXk18RdxPZM I love this song, great electro pop, possibly my fav now :cheer: Edited April 2, 200718 yr by Conor
April 2, 200718 yr Yeh i really rate it! Not exactly sure it'll be great live though and i think you have to listen to it a couple of times to get it really in your head so I'd say probs only a top ten tune in the competition
April 2, 200718 yr Love it...based on last year's success for the pre-qualified finalists I would say it will come 12th/13th although I would love it to come top 3
April 3, 200718 yr oooo i really like it, i'm still trying not to listen to the songs until the night :lol:
April 3, 200718 yr oooo i really like it, i'm still trying not to listen to the songs until the night :lol: Why? It means the growers won't grow, when you have the choice, after week's of listens you'll be able to tell if the live performance is good enough :P
April 4, 200718 yr Why? It means the growers won't grow, when you have the choice, after week's of listens you'll be able to tell if the live performance is good enough :P Yeh but you lose the surprise of the night and it's less fun when you know you're gonna dislike a song before it's even started <_<
April 4, 200718 yr Yeh but you lose the surprise of the night and it's less fun when you know you're gonna dislike a song before it's even started <_< It also means that you can take a balanced view and not be distracted from the crapness of a song by gimmicks a la Scooch :lol:
April 4, 200718 yr It also means that you can take a balanced view and not be distracted from the crapness of a song by gimmicks a la Scooch :lol: It always gives me something to look forward to as I enjoy watching my favourite songs I feel that Lordi was massively distracted by their gimmick as was Marie N...take awy their masks & costumes and her striptease act and you're left with two very average songs
April 4, 200718 yr It always gives me something to look forward to as I enjoy watching my favourite songs I feel that Lordi was massively distracted by their gimmick as was Marie N...take awy their masks & costumes and her striptease act and you're left with two very average songs Indeed :( Both would've just been top 10/15 had it not been for the gimmick, Never Let You Go last year coulda survived without the piano woman and probably would've won, and Ira Losco was ROBBED in 2002 (even though the boob glitter may have boosted a couple of votes :kink:)
April 4, 200718 yr Why? It means the growers won't grow, when you have the choice, after week's of listens you'll be able to tell if the live performance is good enough :P because it will mean i won't know what to expect which will make the show better :P AND it will mean i will choose the song which is best on the night rather than making a song a favourite before the show, when i might not like it on the night :P .. does that make sense? :lol:

It takes a brilliant song to get past the winning semi-finalists (Helena, Chiara, No Name 2005 and Mihai and Anna Vissi 2006) are the only finalists to come top 10 in the last 2 years... Having said that, Finland probably still would have won if they had already been in the final last year so perhaps its just that the semi-finalists up their game to make sure they qualify while the standard of some of the finalists in 2006 was absolutely appalling

April 4, 200718 yr I wouldn't be surprised if this year sees the 10 semi finalists as the 10 finalists to be honest...the Big 4 don't seem to be able to pull in the votes recently and of the other ten finalists only Russia, Sweden and potentially Greece have songs that I can see finishing in the top 10...unless the Europeans go for the Spanish boyband or the gimmicks of the UK...I really can't see France or Germany doing that well

April 4, 200718 yr Ukraine perhaps but I'm hoping Denmark might make the final as their drag queen song is better than Ukraine's and people will only vote for one of them... I just can't predict Spain or Germany...I can see quite a few countries going for the jazz sound of Germany as it is so laidback in comparison to everything else...I think it will finish about 15th...France will need a gimmick and I hear they might perform in a snowglobe so that would be perfect lol!
April 4, 200718 yr I like how these last few years how germany has sent something so different :P I will prob start listening to the songs from the semi finals because the contest will have started :P

Madness anyway. 2001 - Gentle ballad from "a chest to remember" Michelle. - Terry Wogan quote! 2002 - Blind woman singing average song. 2003 - Camp, Europop. 2004 - Max aiming to get the older viewers' vote. 2005 - That dire "rock" song. 2006 - Country appears. :o 2007 - Something incredibly different again. :lol:
