Did anyone else see this yet: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/tvandra...ion-for-UK.html Hmm

Amazing 1. Spain 2. France 3. Croatia Great 4. Italy 5. Iceland 6. Latvia 7. Finland Good 8. Netherlands 9. Denmark 10. Ireland 11. Hungary Average/Meh 12. Slovenia 13. Cyprus 14. Russia 15. Ukraine 16. Estonia 17. Norway 18. Albania 19. Macedonia 20. Slovakia 21. Switzerland Poor 22. Bulgaria 23. Germany 24. Israel 25. Lithuania Rubbish 26. Turkey 27. Belarus 28. Malta 29. Georgia 30. Austria

Personally I think Zaleilah is awful. Granted I'm not crazy about romanian dance pop in general. (although I don't mind Alexandra Stan, she's probably the only one I like) I hope Viky Red wins it.

Maybe if one of them dies Bilan can take her place. :lol:

I have to hand it to the Netherlands, they truly are the troopers of Eurovision. Not a single qualification since 2004 and still they march on. The majority of eurovision countries would have stormed off bawling their eyes out by now. Hope "You and Me" does well for them. I like it quite a bit, it could bring them to the final this time. Here's hoping. Semi Two looks like it could be a bloodbath though. :(

Enjoyed the episode a lot. I can't help but cringe every time they have a "vampires/werewolves outed to the world" storyline though. I'm positive if it was as easy as uploading a video on youtube of a werewolf transforming it would have been done ages ago.

Sweden should hand out some of it's melodifestivalen entrants to less fortunate countries like Montenegro or Lithuania.

Not overly impressed with any of the songs. If I had to pick one I'd go with Killer Bee, would be interesting to see Greece send them.

A bit more of a shakeup here: Amazing 1. Spain 2. France 3. Croatia Great 4. Italy 5. Iceland 6. Latvia 7. Finland Good 8. Denmark 9. Hungary 10. Netherlands 11. Ireland Average/Meh 12. Slovenia 13. Cyprus 14. Ukraine 15. Estonia 16. Norway 17. Albania 18. Macedonia 19. Switzerland Poor 20. Bulgaria 21. Germany 22. Israel 23. Lithuania Rubbish 24. Turkey 25. Belarus 26. Malta 27. Georgia 28. Austria I decided to boost Georgia a little since if you take away the vocals and listen to just the backing track it's kinda catchy, but there is just no redeeming woki mit deim popo whatsoever.

Just listened to the song, It's obviously going to win eurovision and blow away the competition. Loreen might as well go home.

I was just listening to Euphoria, I'm not crazy about it on first impressions to be honest. It's alright. I much prefer My Heart is Refusing Me. I'm probably alone. :P

I'm trying to get into this melodifestivalen however I saw on wikipedia something about Juries from other countries voting in the final. What's that about? Does that mean we can vote on it or it'll be a group of people from that country?

Another update: 1. Croatia 2. France 3. Iceland 4. Italy 5. Latvia 6. Finland 7. Hungary 8. Denmark 9. Netherlands 10. Ireland 11. Slovenia 12. Cyprus 13. Spain 14. Albania 15. Macedonia 16. Switzerland 17. Ukraine 18. Estonia 19. Norway 20. Bulgaria 21. Israel 22. Germany 23. Lithuania 24. Turkey 25. Austria 26. Belarus 27. Malta 28. Georgia

I like it in Italian. :( Still, very happy she's sending per sempre.

I just told my mum that Engelbert Humperdinck would be representing the UK at Eurovision this year. Her response? "but he's old!" :lol:

:rofl: Never heard of him before.

Update: 1. Croatia 2. France 3. Iceland 4. Italy 5. Latvia 6. Finland 7. Hungary 8. Denmark 9. Ireland 10. Slovenia 11. Cyprus 12. Albania 13. Switzerland 14. Ukraine 15. Norway 16. Israel 17. Germany 18. Turkey 19. Austria 20. Belarus 21. Malta 22. Georgia Not much change, I'm just adding countries at this point.

Ooh maybe they're forming a girl band especially for Eurovision. :lol:

So I'm guessing the UK is sending a group called "So Soon" with the song "Surprised"? Just reading between the lines here. Maybe Graham Norton will be entering for the UK? As for the irish having a choice, tween girls and jedfanatics take our "choice" and smack it into the next century. It's a bit like God running for president in the Vatican. Not really a choice worth talking about. :P

I do feel bad for the others though. If I was a singer and was ever going to take part in eurovision, I would want to know in advance if there was going to be any twins or turkeys taking part. I wouldn't be surprised if many self respecting artists don't go for eurovision because of this situation that has been set up where chances there will be this on trend participant that will soak up all the attention. My favourites always come 2nd.

SHOCKING

They really need to stop having these national finals where there is this one insanely stand out artist that is OBVIOUSLY going to win with a bazillion points.

I think I'd rank them: 1. Here I Am --- 2. Mistaken 3. Waterline 4. Mercy --- 5. Language of Love Frankly Waterline, Mercy and Language of Love are all pretty poor. (LoL in particular) The chorus of Mistaken is nice and the song overall is nice to listen to but it has no hope of getting anywhere. (I did use "nice" for a reason) I would be a bit worried that waterline won't have the same spark Lipstick did at eurovision. The only song I want going anywhere near eurovision is Here I Am, all or nothing. :P

A bit disappointed with Jedward's performance. It just didn't really grab me and felt more messy than usual. Given it's Jedward you forgive a LOT of messiness and such but this was just eh.......I think novelty is what Jedward do best. I prefer Lipstick.
