Inver Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Albania ----OK....spider man in lurex outfit now with the joker twins with a pink fairy.....you can tell it has nothing to do with the song/music. She has quite a good voice for 17 though. Andy says shame she is only 17 and can't drink her sorrows away!!
Lucybird Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 hmm Norway is kinda sweet, bit over simplistic maybe, I can imagine it would get annoying after a few listens
Kell Posted May 16, 2009 Author Posted May 16, 2009 Norway - He's cute as a pixie (needs some tweezers taken to his eyebrows though) and the tune is infectious. Possibly aiming for the Russian vote, judging by the style.
Inver Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Norway....things a looking up at last (but I'm old enough to be his mother!)....Andy says he has caterpillar eyebrows...lol...why do they need the acrobatics in it though...fiddling very good, maybe not sure!
Lucybird Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 oh my this is...different...her outfit is rather distracting too
Inver Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Ukraine....dire! What is with the centurion...and she pretends to play the drums.....oh get off and go home
Kell Posted May 16, 2009 Author Posted May 16, 2009 Ukraine - Centurians in hamster wheels, girls in tinfoil and a stripper (OK, so she keeps her kit on, but she's dressed like one!) - quite a spectacle! Athletic performance from all concerned (except the tinfoil twins who just stand there looking impossibly tall). Historically, the neighbour of the previous winners often become the next winners, so perhaps this one will take the title...
lexiepiper Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 That's shocking that they have someone else singing the actual vocals! And I agree with the stripper comment Kel
pipread Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Romania sounds quite good - but it reminds me of another song, can`t remember what though!
Inver Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Romania....another dire entry....sorry! Oh god....us next...probably nae chance!!
Kell Posted May 16, 2009 Author Posted May 16, 2009 Romania - Pretty costumes, pretty girls, pretty awful. Actually, they gave a decent enough performance, I just found the song really same-y and nothing-y.
lexiepiper Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 She's performing well, the song may not be great, but she's holding up atleast
Lucybird Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 I quite liked the Romanian song (what I saw of it), but she was a bit out of tune in parts. Jade seems to be going quite well so far...I am worried her dress is about to fall down though
Kell Posted May 16, 2009 Author Posted May 16, 2009 UK - I have to say straight off that I hate this song. Andrew Lloyd Webber should stick to musicals. I also can't stand that Jade lassie - her voice warbles all over the place. Last year we had a great entry with a fantastic performance - we've taken a huge step backwards with this dross. Insipid song and terrible performance.
Inver Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 (edited) She sang it very well and has a good voice, but no Andy Abraham! At least she doesn't need any half naked men around her, but it was a very typical Webber musical type performance. Yeh Finland !! OH no....no Orcs.....Finlands very own Tim Westwood says Andy, ....catchy tune with fire act!! Edited May 16, 2009 by Inver
pipread Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Good performance by Jade - don`t think much of the song though.
Lucybird Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 no I don't like the song either. Finland- rapping that's unusual for eurovision, I kind of like it though
lexiepiper Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Well the topless men were easy on the eyes either way
Kell Posted May 16, 2009 Author Posted May 16, 2009 Finland - Spirited performance but didn't people learn about entering a song with rapping from the UK's entry a few years back? (Daz with Teenage Life - one of the UK's lowest Eurovision moments!). Finland should have gone with Surrender by Passionworks (which was one of the contenders) - it was a far better song and would have stood them a far better chance of winning.
Inver Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Spain.....I've lost interest already...sounds like all the others!! Andy says last and very much least!
