I remember a small discussion about this taking place during one of the results shows a few months back.

 

Now that there have been ten contests, most countries have sort of established an identity within the BJSC. I'm curious to hear what you think your ESC equivilant country would be, or what other poster's equivilant may be.

 

I think FSR Rontvia is definitely Sweden, mostly producing great pop songs that have a very wide appeal, and a good track record.

 

Kopeceka and Bhangra are Russia and Ukraine, pretty much, somehow, always guaranteed a top ten placing :D

 

Camtoro and Leonville....Serbia and Montenegro perhaps? Practically the same country ;)

 

Any thoughts?

Sweden, I like that one :wub:

 

Mdice is Greece, usually come low top ten but when they win, they win big with only the occasional flop

 

what happened to Camtoro and Leonville! I think they are Czech Republic and Montenegro, they send awful songs which never get anywhere :kink:

:lol:

 

Well technically they're banned from this one I guess, but I've not heard from either of them since the last Contest!

 

I think I may have inadvertently become France... :unsure:

Not a clue who Juranabaijan is...only been TWO contests afterall :lol:

 

Azerbaijan springs to mind :lol:

:lol:

I would have you down as Switzerland, fairly mid-table results usually, but when you send a good song it comes low top ten but deserved higher

 

and you're not afraid to take risks trying something completely different in every contest, even if these risks sometimes fail

Simondly would have to be UK, as they always seem to fail to come top 10 :lol:

I would have thought Simondly would be Turkey.

 

Started off their BJSC career with constant flops, but now have had a few strong top ten finishes.

I don't know who I would be...maybe Finland because I've had one win but I don't usually do that well otherwise.

I still think that is more appropriate to France though. I say that because France aren't that fussed on winning and for most of the last 20 years they have entered songs that they think other countries should hear, not songs they think they have a genuine chance with. :lol:

 

I'm noticing similarities with Herzebania!!

good comparison!

true, except France have no chance of ever making the top ten anymore in the ESC, and Herzebania have made the top ten twice

I wouldn't say any country doesn't have a chance of finishing top ten anymore! :lol:

 

Anyway, I'd say Kopecka are like Greece or Armenia - more likely Greece. Normally top ten, with the occasional flop. We haven't had our Elena yet though :( Oh wait, we're more like Macedonia - we always qualify but we never get the goods :heehee: Or like Sweden, we have quite a few top tens up our sleeves with the odd flop (including Jordin in the third contest who played the role of Charlotte Perrelli :kink:)

 

I could go on! :heehee:

you sent the right song at the wrong time with Freeze...if you'd sent it to BJSC6/7 it would have come top 5 I think...and if you did win at some point Greece would match Kopecka perfectly :o

Indeed, and it still disappoints me to this day :( Then again, the contest was really on a downward curve at that point, it looked like it was a quickly dying novelty by BJSC IV...thank god you saved it with BJSC VI! :wub:

yeah, it did really get better from then BJSCVI onwards :wub: as I said before, the only reason I suggested to have that contest earlier is because I was dying to send Untouched as soon as possible :heehee:

Nonsuch = As I've joined the competition late only at BJSC 8 then I have to be either a former Yugoslavian or former USSR satellite state.

 

As the 3 results I've had so far have all seen Top 10 finishes: 9th, 1st & 3rd then I reckon I'm the Serbia of BJSC so far.

I'd agree with that, Nonsuch have had an excellent start with no flops!

Or possibly Latvia. Looks very similar to their first few years. They won on their second time and finished consistantly in the top ten....

 

It all depends on how you do this time :P

Definitely Latvia or Serbia for Nonsuch ^_^

 

And bless you Rich for finding Untouched! :wub:

Latvia won on their third time and haven't actually that good a record really. :o They flopped in 2001, 2003, 2004 and 2006.
