Mokong Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Don't think you're gonna win any money Mokong :p That's what I'm hoping. But you never know, there's what 10 countries elft to vote, imagine if all of them suddenly lost all sense of reason and all gave 12 to Jedward (Notice I try to not refer to them as "Ireland" but by "Jedward"... In my mind they do not really represent Ireland and we are not taking part this year ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted May 14, 2011 Author Share Posted May 14, 2011 That's good, Georgia are beating Ireland. People need to start voting for Denmark and Georgia more, lmao. (Sorry Mokong :p) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganepark32 Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Georgia weren't that great. At least I didn't think so. The safest they could go for an attempted 'metal' song, with a female fronted band. Maybe I'm just jaded on female fronted metal bands but Georgia did nothing for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beast Posted May 14, 2011 Author Share Posted May 14, 2011 Why is it that people hate Jedward so much? Long story. A very long story that has plagued the UK for two years. I know this sounds bad but Lipstick is actually their best and the most original song they've done (they normally rip off singers and bands and do awful covers. As far as I know, they've NEVER done an original song except for this one). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonnas Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Lol, Portugal was so impartial Italy is getting close to the top. Honestly, I liked their song better than Azerbaijan, so...Italia! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayseven Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Azerbaijan have basically won it -- Sweden could swing it but... I think the azer song was good though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Azerbaijan was one of my favourites, so I'm pretty happy. Though I'd have loved to see Denmark win, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mokong Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 hahaha... 8th place... I had a bet for them to finish between 9th and 16th... that's just cruel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beast Posted May 14, 2011 Author Share Posted May 14, 2011 why Sorry? I don't want Jedward to get votes :P Yeah but I called them Ireland :p I just can't believe Ireland beat the UK though, that's a bit embarrassing but still, it was fun. Gutted for Denmark and Georgia but I do like Aberthingy's song, not the best one and not worthy to win but it was still better than half of the ones in the competition. Nice, charming song that sounds like it should be in a Disney movie, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mokong Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 If the UK really wanna win it they should try bribe Iron Maiden into doing it next year.... they have a huge following across Europe you'd be gauranteed the win... of course the Irons would likely not be caught dead in the contest, haha I could say the same for Ireland and U2 maybe, it's the only way to actually gaurantee a win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted May 14, 2011 Author Share Posted May 14, 2011 That's what it was making me think of too, haha I missed their song but listening to it now, I'm actually glad they won. I managed to catch up on what I missed due to watching Britain's Got Talent (and no, I didn't miss the Britney impersonation, well worth the watch, haha) and my favourites were Georgia and Denmark but naturally, I would have liked to have seen the UK somewhere near the top. Ah well, well done Aberthingymajic, great song!

If Lordi can do it, they definitely can! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr-Paul Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 I can't stand the Azerbaijani song, "I'm running upstairs tonight" My only consolation is my friend is a eurovision betting master and won £110 and will be paying for drinks next time we're out! Not her best though, she won £150 at the age of 11 and £250 last year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eenuh Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 I can't stand the Azerbaijani song, "I'm running upstairs tonight" Except they sing "I'm running, I'm scared tonight". =P Didn't get why Sweden got so high, it sucked. So did Blue, not good at all. Actually a lot of the songs on top were just meh. Italy came out of nowhere though! Nice surprise heh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The competition is clearly not as serious as it used to be, so might as well enter some catchy and fun songs. Oh well. I just Youtubed Azerbaijan's song, doesn't really appeal to me but I can see how it can appeal to a lot of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
