Eurovision 2018: Dust off your hamster wheel and dig out your pink pleather leotard

I couldn't see a 2018 Eurovision thread. But surely I can't be the only one who has been checking out this year's songs.

Semi final 1 is looking tough - my money is on the winner coming through this one.

Meanwhile semi final 2 seems wide open. Pretty much anyone could make it through.

Plus there are some reasonable songs from the 6 guaranteed finalists.

Scott Mills sounds like he's saying Ryan O'Shock no see!

Do they recycle those blow up sofas every year?

LadyGAgain · 08/05/2018 22:09

Oh bore off Ireland.
Austria yes!

Perhaps Ireland will snatch last place from the UK.

I can't believe Israel is through

JaneJeffer · 08/05/2018 22:10

Can't believe we got through Grin

It's a complete rip off of Mysterious Ways by Ed Sheeran

JaneJeffer · 08/05/2018 22:12

One Ed Sheeran is too much for me.

RedToothBrush · 08/05/2018 22:13

Anyway all.

See you Thursday!

Night!

LineyErgoSum · 08/05/2018 22:13

My Lovely Ed Sheeran.

Raahh · 08/05/2018 22:14

I will end up with a red rectangle, and some sort of black spider, I think.

Raahh · 08/05/2018 22:14

Raahh · 08/05/2018 22:16

So the way to get Ireland to the final is to give up all hope. I prefer Albania (traitor). See you on Thursday.

Well holy god Marty Whelan can calm down now.

The presenters have got to be the worst Eurovision presenters of all time - they were awful.

YouBetterWORK · 08/05/2018 23:14

Wow, I last checked this thread it had less than 60 posts, what went on?!! I would have contributed too, except we were dealing with a very wakey 3 month old who didn't get that mum wanted to watch sparkly wind machine singing contest. And strobe lighting, christ alive I can't remember which country it was but my EYES!!

Anyway, a lot more entertaining than I thought it would be, I did quite like Albania (can't wait for beard/hair/vikings still though), DH liked Austria so he's happy they're through.

Israel was fun, did anyone else think when she sang "on the madabaka beat" that M word sounded like something else?

Also did anyone else pick up Scott Mills referencing Drag Race when he mentioned Miss Vanjie?? Grin

SneakyGremlins · 08/05/2018 23:18

I haven't seen anything yet but VANJIE was mentioned???
