Eurovision 2015 - Vienna

[Nine Bob Note]

The swedish guy is fucking hot. I may just save my time and stick my cash on him

Thank you

And...all ballads?

 

[wtfftw]

Not all ballads.

 

[5t3IIa]

Not all ballads.

Oh good

LOOK AT MY LEATHER TROUSERS

LOOK AT THEM

Getting in early, because it's just been announced that for this year's 60th anniversary of Eurovision Australia will be allowed to complete.

I think this is bloody brilliant news. I loved their little thing they did last year, lots of fun. Apparently if they win they'll be allowed to compete again (but it will be hosted in Europe). As far as I'm concerned this means I'll be using my vote strategically to vote for Australia even if they are utter shite.

Also, I believe the last time "we" won it, it was sung by an Australian.

 

[isvicthere?]

(my 2p: the british entry will meet their own private Waterloo, again...)

At 150/1 the bookies agree with you.

Katrina from Katrina in the waves is from america. Gina g didn't win I don't think.

 

[quimcunx]

This has sneaked up on me this year but I'm looking forward to tonight.

I'm thinking scoring system as follows:

Set design/special effects
Costumes/hairstyles/facial furniture/makeup
Tune
Lyrics
Fanciability

You're right. Gina G, it turns out, was the last British Eurovision entry to top the UK charts (remember them?)

Can't there be extra points for borrowing heavily from iconic 80s adverts? Why do you hate Britain?

I hate Britain so much I haven't even seen its entrant in order to accuse it of borrowing anything.

If anything we have borrowed shit music from recent pop trends.

Listened to about five seconds of each and pretty disappointed. No swashbuckling pirates, moustache-flaunting gameshow hosts or bacofoil drag queens this year. Nor have a seen anyone wearing facial prosthetics, twleve-inch platforms or even a comedy wig. It's like they're not even trying

Stuck my money on Estonia, with a few quid on Serbia placing. The little faces I drew for each country were a little less frowny for them.

It is a disappointingly MOR line-up this year. I fear it's the direction the contest is headed in generally.

 

[5t3IIa]

Right! Cushions plumped, candles lit (fig and pineapple & ginger), shampoo on ice, ashtrays emptied, steaks seasoned, pencil sharpened.

Bonsoir, mesdames et monsieurs, you may bring it on

[rekil]

I put a few quid on Serbia to finish in the top 5. 6th place it'll be so.

 

[wtfftw]

I'm almost at my Eurovision party. :excite:

 

[red rose]

I have arrived chez Camomile, the pizza is in the oven and we each have our very special Eurovision Dress Up Sticker Book.

 

[red rose]

Let the games begin!

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Fish and chips have been eaten. Sofa cushions have been plumped. We are ready!!

 

[red rose]

Matching outfits? I THINK SO

 

[Vintage Paw]

What a great day to celebrate Eurovision.

 

[Vintage Paw]

Early doors. More like early snores.

 

[QueenOfGoths]

A question. Austrian pop acts. Other than Falco?

 

[Epona]

I nearly forgot to hit the red button for sing-a-long mode, that would have been a disaster!

 

[Lord Camomile]

Barbarella Disco-Gladiator

Thanks for the reminder
