Eurovision song contest

[Kimi]

Won't be the same without Wogan and we will get nil points thanks to political voting.
The songs will all be crap, some bint will be almost topless, there well be body hair where we don't need to see body hair and more perma tan then you can shake Victoria Beckham at.

There you go no need to watch now

AMzing what you can do with empty oil cans.

So much of the music on here is so beige anyway... who cares what the result is? What do they know about music those silly Estonians/Israelis/Greeks/Romanians/etc etc? Did they have the Beatles? The Rolling Stones? Morrissey? Sonia? Nope I don't think so!

If there's going to be someone who looks Enrique Iglesias ripping clothing off, I definitely won't be letting DH watch the New Avengers.....

DH thinks that the Israeli song would be improved if it suddenly turned into a death metal style and they started pretending to kill each other
Personally I found it rather moving.

V.boring so far! told small boy he could stay up to watch it and he fell asleep on the floor before the end of the 2nd song!

Those of you who aren't watching with the subtitles on are really missing out.

I luved the Herreys Brothers Glitteryb6 ! once went on an exchange thing to Sweden and slept in a bedroom covered with posters of them - thought I was in heaven (not was about 13 at the time!!!!) They had the golden boots didnt they?!

Oh God, someone hand me a knife and I'll slit my wrists with the French song!!!! How fucking depressing!!!!
Someone should have told her she looks like a panda as well.

The French woman looks like a vampire. Not sure how they expect to win?

The commentators are planning France's "grand spectacle" next year already!

Oh now the French are really trying to be too deep. This is the kind of music you can only listen to when you're pissed on pastis.. in a Parisien cafe... smoking Gauloises.... with someone called Gilles.... wearing a beret.... in the 1960s!

Patricia Kaas on Eurovision???? I thoght it was for newcomers mainly.

HeadFairy - sour grapes, perchance?

am sitting with my pen and paper scoring the acts and will get it hideouysly wrong like i do every year!

I'm liking the GN commentary so far! Just such a shame the 2 presenters who hosted the semis are not on - they were sooooo bad it was v funny! Would loved to have heard what Graham made of them!

all that shaking at the mic, did they plug her into the main electric grid or something?

Oh absolutely cthea

DS (9) is scoring them and has already given some 9s and 10s. Should I worry about his taste in music and fashion?

olliewolliewoo, just for you gold boots

What's with the dancing at then end Patricia?

FR GN equiv. "Moi, j'ai beacoup aime. Beacoup d'emotion..."

Apologies for missing accents.

Couldn't bare it after about 2 minutes.

Let me know when Jade is on.

I hope this is a little more upbeat.

Can I join in.. I'm gonna anyway.

Yup - french bird thought she was ..ooh, who was that woman who sang Je ne regrette rien (sp)??

And now for the warbling swedes..

Ah Sweden are a bit more upbeat but she does have some worrying head movements going on....

And she's suddenly lurched into opera!

Edith piaf?

DH has said we have a new Rugby theme song from Sweden.

So, anyone want to stick their neck out and guess the winner? I thought that young bloke from Norway was ok in the semis - as ok as Eurovision gets anyway!!
This Swedish song sounds like a British Airways advert!

I am watching with DS1 12 and DS2 9. We have paper to score each one with a tick, cross or ?.
Pretty dull so far!
