May 12, 200916 yr Ooh, I just can't wait :w00t: If you're not doing anything else, tune into www.escradio.com, they're spinning all this years songs, plus classics and NF songs (you might get some ideas for BJSC) :kink: I'm going to cook myself spaghetti in a bit, in tribute to Italy :cry:
May 12, 200916 yr I'm having Chinese, because I'm too lazy to make something for my favourite (Iceland). I'm saying, it's in anticipation of 'Asiavision' instead.
May 12, 200916 yr Author I want the following to qualify (in no particular order...): Montenegro // Andrea Demirovic - Just Get Out of My Life Sweden // Malena Ernmann - La Voix Armenia // Inga & Anush - Jan Jan Switzerland // Lovebugs - The Highest Heights Turkey // Hadise - Dum Tek Tek Iceland // Johanna Guðrun Jonsdottir - Is It True? Romania // Elena - The Balkan Girls Finland // Waldo's People - Lose Control Portugal // Flor-de-lis - Todas As Ruas Do Amor Bosnia-Herzegovina // Regina - Bistra Voda I think the following will qualify: Montenegro // Andrea Demirovic - Just Get Out of My Life Belarus // Petr Elfimov - Eyes That Never Lie Sweden // Malena Ernmann - La Voix Armenia // Inga & Anush - Jan Jan Switzerland // Lovebugs - The Highest Heights Turkey // Hadise - Dum Tek Tek Iceland // Johanna Guðrun Jonsdottir - Is It True? Romania // Elena - The Balkan Girls Portugal // Flor-de-lis - Todas As Ruas Do Amor Bosnia-Herzegovina // Regina - Bistra Voda I'm predicting Chiara and Waldo's People for 'shock' exits (to casual observers anyway :P). I don't particularly like Belarus but it gets one hell of a reception and is a decent-ish song following two hideous ones...if I had to pick one dirge to qualify, Belarus would be FAR preferable to Macedonia (sorry Boyan! :P). I shall be voting for Iceland, Sweden, Bosnia and Switzerland tonight! :cheer:
May 12, 200916 yr I'm having Chinese, because I'm too lazy to make something for my favourite (Iceland). I'm saying, it's in anticipation of 'Asiavision' instead. LOL! I hope that happens smeday...
May 12, 200916 yr Author Oh yes, and I might vote for Armenia depending on my credit, but I severely doubt they'll get any points from the UK so I probably won't bother...
May 12, 200916 yr anyway, my last prediction of how this all goes: Montenegro // Andrea Demirovic - Just Get Out of My Life Sweden // Malena Ernmann - La Voix Armenia // Inga & Anush - Jan Jan Switzerland // Lovebugs - The Highest Heights Turkey // Hadise - Dum Tek Tek Iceland // Johanna Guðrun Jonsdottir - Is It True? Finland // Waldo's People - Lose Control Portugal // Flor-de-lis - Todas As Ruas Do Amor Malta // Chiara - What If We Bosnia-Herzegovina // Regina - Bistra Voda I can't see Israel qualifying anymore :snif:
May 12, 200916 yr I want (in order of prefernce) :kink: Switzerland Portugal Armenia Andorra Iceland Finland Sweden Montenegro Bulgaria Malta But I expect Portugal will be replaced by Bosnia, and I'm really not sure on Sweden or Finland :( I expect Belarus or FYROM will make it instead :manson:
May 12, 200916 yr Author LOL! I hope that happens smeday... It's actually happening this year! :o But it's Asia-Pacific Song Contest...
May 12, 200916 yr Author http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asia-Pacific_Song_Contest_2009 Anyone else reckon Australia, Japan and China will clear this up? :o
May 12, 200916 yr Wow :o I have to see this somehow - Gambare Nihon :cheer: (go Japan!) Anyway back on topic... I'm still pissed off at Spain for deserting Andorra and Portugal :snif:
May 12, 200916 yr As for i want them to qualify then i choose these, will not be that sad/shocked/disappointed if any others miss out... Armenia // Inga & Anush - Jan Jan Israel // Noa & Mira Awad - There Must Be Another Way Finland // Waldo's People - Lose Control Portugal // Flor-de-lis - Todas As Ruas Do Amor Malta // Chiara - What If We Bosnia-Herzegovina // Regina - Bistra Voda
May 12, 200916 yr Author Anyway back on topic... I'm still pissed off at Spain for deserting Andorra and Portugal :snif: Portugal will make it through easily, it gets a MASSIVE crowd reception and the stage performance is just too unique to not go through...
May 12, 200916 yr That's very true - it looks totally different from anything else. I'll be voting for them - I would LOVE them to win :wub:
May 12, 200916 yr Malena/Lovebugs had better not crash out here :smoke: I predict these qualifiers; Sweden // Malena Ernmann - La Voix Armenia // Inga & Anush - Jan Jan Switzerland // Lovebugs - The Highest Heights Turkey // Hadise - Dum Tek Tek Israel // Noa & Mira Awad - There Must Be Another Way Iceland // Johanna Guðrun Jonsdottir - Is It True? Romania // Elena - The Balkan Girls Portugal // Flor-de-lis - Todas As Ruas Do Amor Malta // Chiara - What If We Bosnia-Herzegovina // Regina - Bistra Voda I fully expect Sweden or/and Switzerland to crash out to something dire like Belarus or FYR Macedonia but I won't tempt fate by excluding them from the list :P
