Nah, Iron Maiden

Though, seeing as how Lordi got successful with their creepy masks, Dani should do fine

Slovenia wont get far, like every year. Maja has a great voice and looks good, but the song itself is a piece of garbage. Written by the same people that wrote every previous (very un-succesfull) entries.
The selection (caled EMA here) has become a total farse, where you win depending on who was the author.
But Maja did win the ''most beautiful of the contestants'' award

Just want to know how votes will the portuguese song get!

Lena again or not Lena again, that is the only question.

Can't sing for sure, but her looks are awfully cute and her moves are irresistably queer. The beauty contest she already has won in advance, no doubt.

Funny, Google search engine predicted (by search request-patterns and -numbers) last two years' winners correctly. And this year it predicts a Lena win again.

The german decision to let Lena run again and let the people choose between 4872 songs which she should sing, is so terribly unoriginal and dull...
At least Israel waited 13 years to have Dana sing again...

The most fun to watch will probably be the semi-finales - there you have all the europop-trash-stars with amazingly bad songs

- in the finale the majority are sadly already wiped out - but still enough mocking potential

.
Too bad that I won't have the time to watch the finale the proper way: with friends and beer.

Also I am not terribly happy about Düsseldorf's decision to get the conmtest at all costs. For example: They build a mobile stadium, so that our local football club can play its last 3 games at home, as the Arena is occupied by the ecs. The official costs for this stadium alone are 2.8million €, estimates go up to 8. After the contest it gets knocked down again... And this in a city which has among the hightest crime rate in the state, in combination with the lowest clearance rate, where the roads look like ****e, other cultural and social programs get underfunded and its own city workers have to work under semi-legal conditions with a laughable pay....
But hey: that's Düsseldorf: they always want to look good on the outside, as we say in German: "Mehr Schein als Sein"

I am outing myself: My name is Penguin and I will watch the contest tonight!

Luckily I am able to do it like I wanted, beer's in the fridge, friends not yet.

Anybody else watching the show?

I always thought that Eurovision was just a sketch on the Benny Hill show.

MH · 05-14-11, 04:30 PM

I have seen Eurovision and the end must be near....
The sooner the better

Penguin · 05-14-11, 04:30 PM

The best act on the stage this evening was Jan Delay. This is german music, not Lena!
In a just world he would win!

My prediction: either Estland, Switzerland or France will win.

However the best song was from Moldavia!
