Peckhamgatecrasher Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 I know this is wrong, very wrong, but I actually liked the Jedward effort. Also liked Iceland and Austria.

Mick Mac Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Prediction - Jedward win and hosting the 2012 event sinks the Ireland economy. Oh wait - thats been done already.

maxxi Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Now I'm not suggesting that the French are arrogant but the safest bet in this contest was that their 'points announcer' would be the only one who insisted on delivering them in his native language rather than English.

HonaloochieB Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 For next year they should rope in the gadgies who did that LAX song for Rachel Stevens to write and produce the song, get Biffy Clyro in to do the backing and Pippa Middleton to sing it.If that's not a sure-fire winner then I'll eat my head.

HonaloochieB Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Not if they can get theirselves webbed up with them gadgies that done that LAX for Rachel Stevens, they've got the Minder's touch that bunch.

Jeremy Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 That Blue song was seriously one of the worst things I've ever heard. Just awful.Biffy Clyro featuring Pippa Middleton sounds like a step in the right direction. Or maybe The Wedding Present featuring Mr Motivator, with "Diversity" dancing in the background.

HonaloochieB Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 And the added fairy dust from them gadgies what done that LAX with that Rachel Stevens, would make it a sure-fire number one toppermost of the poppermost, Jezza.I feel a letter writing campaign coming on. Let's fire out epistles to people of influence.I reckon Prince Phillip first.

Loz Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 I was surprised the Icelandic song didn't fare a little better. A nice jolly number even though the back-story was rather tragic.Mind you, Iceland winning Eurovision might just finish their economy off completely. I think they dodged a bullet there.

mockney piers Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 "I suppose it would be pointless to wonder whether Azerbaijan is in Europe?"You should see the football European conference. Kazakhstan with a hundreds of miles bordering China and it's eastern edge almost on a latitudinal par with the likes of Burma?!?! Maybe any country with an 'irish' pub in it counts?

huncamunca Posted May 17, 2011 Author Share Posted May 17, 2011 I once met a bunch of Irishmen in a pub in Grozny or some hellhole - they were the faux Irish Pub installation team. Thye would literally board a jet with an entire pub in IKEA form waitng for them at the other end and get it up and running in 48 hours - complete with rusty Bicycles, tiddly dee folk music and dusty guinness signs. Up there with the BigMac index, its an alternative way of assessing the development stage of a country or city.

Ridgley Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 I must confess I did watch it, I was surprised how many European countries sang in English the last time I watch Eurovision was in the 80s things definitely moved on since then and what I do not understand is if it is a European contest how comes Israel can enter the competition?
