I have heard a lot of them, and I really hate the sound of all of them, especially the UK entry :puke2:

Ohhh they are not all so bad? I don't like some of them but I wouldn't say any of them are horrible :(

Las Ketchup for Spain? :o :rofl: LMAO I miss them! :lol:

 

They are currently pickin' up the Portuguese entry... I'm watching it :P

There's a Eurovision forum you know :cheer:

I love quite a few of the songs so far, especially Estonia :wub:

My points so far would be...

 

Malta 1 point

Norway 2 points

Romania 3 points

Bosnia-Herzegovina 4 points

Poland 5 points

Denmark 6 points

United Kingdom 7 points

Belgium 8 points

Croatia 10 points

Estonia 12 points

2006 is turning out be a VERY weak year :(

 

My points at the moment:

 

01 Germany

02 Cyprus

03 Iceland

04 Poland

05 Romania

06 Denmark

07 FYR Macedonia

08 Estonia

10 Belgium

12 Norway

UK will win, a brilliant eurovision song for once!

 

 

 

Belgium should win. Always been a fan of Kate's songs and this is no exception. Absolutely wicked song and I am sure that we will see next year's ESC in Brussels. Wish I could be more patriotic this year, but the competition for the final was rubbish and this was the best of the bunch. Absolutely hopeless....

Overall, quality this year is absolutely terrible. Blandness in loads....

 

Anyway here are my votes:-

 

12 - Belgium

10 - Estonia

8 - Malta

7 - UK

6 - Turkey

5 - Romania

4 - Latvia

3 - Cyprus

2 - Croatia

1 - Netherland

 

Here's the complete order of my chart plus my thoughts on all other songs...

 

1 Belgium (absolutely corking! she never fails to impress!!!)

2 Estonia (Shania Twain style)

3 Malta (A-teens style but male soloist!)

4 UK (would have preferred something else but nice "Hard Knock Life" style song - kids' voices put me off though!)

5 Turkey (nice catchy disco song but doesnt kick in as it should)

6 Romania (cheap dance effort but nice voice)

7 Latvia (great N*Sync style accapella and nice song - amazing voices)

8 Cyprus (nice voice but song puts me to sleep)

9 Croatia (ok but blatant rip-off of Ruslana "Wild Voices")

10 Netherland (catchy latino style)

11 Denmark (60's rock-n-roll style)

12 Poland (guy sounds like Gunther)

13 Andorra (love song with rocky edge - reminds me of Honeyz "End Of the Line" dont ask me why!)

14 Belarus (soft rock style)

15 Macedonia (latin style song complete with Shakira yodelling!)

16 Iceland (Britney style song with Aqua lead-singer lookalike)

17 Ukraine (Ruslana all over again without the backing!)

18 Slovenia (Daniel Bedingfield look-a-like!)

19 Bosnia (nice but havent got a clue what he's singing about!)

20 Finland (bland attempt at hard rock - fails miserably!)

21 Switzerland (nice and melodic but too safe)

22 Albania (catchy but not a good effort)

23 Spain (Cheeky Girls Spanish style - oh the horror!)

24 Portugal (dont quite know how to describe this song)

25 Norway (great voice but rubbish song)

26 Serbia/Montenegro (rubbish)

27 Germany (country style)

28 Bulgaria (this song reminds me of Shakira 'Whenever Wherever' but x100 worse!)

29 Ireland (usual Boyzone style soppy crap!)

30 Lithuania (OH MY GOD! blatant ego trip. Better change the lyrics guys... lol)

 

Btw what happened to Greece??????

Greece are choosing their song tonight I think, Anna Vissi will sing though.

I think the entry from Finland is actually quite catchy and certainly stands out from the crowd. And yeah, Kate Ryan's song is good but that is the case quite often with her...

12.Macedonia

10.Croatia

8.Bosnia & Herzegovina

7.Spain

6.Belgium

5.UK

4.Slovenia

3.Bulgaria

2.Norway

1.Cyprus

Interesting to see, the best four songs on top imo! I will be starting up a Eurovision Multi Chart tomorrow anyway, once Sweden have chosen their entry!

 

The Eurovision multichart thread is now pinned at the top of the page, so see there for information about how to post it.

The uk entry is horrible
