Posted May 27, 200817 yr As everybody knows Britain's Got Talent is on also at the moment - but do you think a song contest like Eurovision would be better if Simon Cowell and a number of industry types was added into the mix - as you know World Idol didnt work as there was too many judges trying to give opinions - however I think in the 1960s they used to have a panel that would held up scorecards for each act (tho i might be getting mixed up with old foootage of Miss World or Opportunity Knocks that Ive seen on a clip show) - tho I think if you still had this panel. plus 3 judges to give a verdict like America's Got Talent/American Idol after every act and then a phone vote split into regions (Balkans, Scandinavia, UK & Ireland, Beneluxe, the GSA etc etc) it might work out better as a way of launching acts on a European music scene...what does anyone else think??
May 28, 200817 yr For Terry Wogan i think the time has come to leave Eurovision, and for someone else to take over
May 28, 200817 yr A music expert, yes. So that rules Cowell out. Exactly what I was thinking tbh... Here's a much more natural choice to replace Wogan than that c/unt Cowell - Sir Paul McCartney..... Mind you, would he even be bothered with ESC....?

Mind you, would he even be bothered with ESC....? well i wasnt thinking about replaing Wogan as comentator - but having industry execs voting as well / giving guidence over the songs....whoever it will be (tho as far as Britain's Got Talent - my parents actually think Cowell has actually got the best points of the 3 judges - actually is mostly spot on in his opinions)
June 2, 200817 yr How about getting that Paddy guy from the semis to replace him, he actually seemed to know roughly what he was on about without just being bitter and obsessed :smoke:
