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.

Oh, I like this , just because it's not a sappy ballad. And has a bloke with curly hair.

My criteria for a song is not always song related. Grin

Albania have a tough draw - they'd definitely make it through semi 2.

I like the Albanian entry...and he has a fabulous name. I want him to get through.

SuffolkNWhat · 08/05/2018 20:16

An interesting combo

RedToothBrush · 08/05/2018 20:17

Best so far, but still not doing it for me.

Raahh · 08/05/2018 20:17

It's a definite grower.

Pity dh is taking his time to arrive with my wine. Grin

I think our entry this year is respectable but let's face it, doesn't stand a chance. I think our days of winning Eurovision are long over, never to be repeated.

Prefer Albania to the last two songs.

SuffolkNWhat · 08/05/2018 20:17

At least there is no man bun

LineyErgoSum · 08/05/2018 20:17

I'm voting for the Albanian dental Zeppelin.

He’s got some mighty lungs

DialMforMordor · 08/05/2018 20:17

I'm getting very strong Del Amitri vibes from this. Sounds, I mean. Lookwise, it's all giant ant men in bondage.

Raahh · 08/05/2018 20:17

Interesting jacket. Grin

I quite fancy a jacket like that - would be awesome for work.

Liney I like that description.

They are my favourite so far. I know it's early.

Rhubarb01 · 08/05/2018 20:19

I once got stranded on an island in the middle of that estuary for three hours - it's a long story.

Wannabe bins theme alert. Don't get the hype about Belgium's song.

Missing Mel & Scott combo but pleased she'll be doing the voting in the final

RedToothBrush · 08/05/2018 20:20

I lke this.

Rhubarb01 · 08/05/2018 20:20

What is going on with that net curtain, trouser combo?

OublietteBravo · 08/05/2018 20:20

Bond theme. WTF autocorrect. Where did you get bins from?

No, on the basis of two important factors:

  1. she can’t decide between trousers or a skirt. It’s not a hard decision
  2. Alanis Morissette type hair
SuffolkNWhat · 08/05/2018 20:21

I do too Red

IPokeBadgers · 08/05/2018 20:21

I have the urge to give Belgium a haircut and deep conditioning treatment.

Raahh · 08/05/2018 20:21

I do not like this at all- I think it's really boring. I keep waiting for it to get going, but it just doesn't really.

I miss Mel- but I've grown to like Rylan over the years.

Rhubarb01 · 08/05/2018 20:21

It sounds like that Garbage Bond theme - was it The World is not Enough or Tomorrow never dies?
