  1. Hmmm… considering I’m JEWISH I should have really put my weight behind Israel. But considering they are not even in fucking Europe they should really fuck off and do a song contest with the Arab world. I’m sure they’d be very successful…

  2. These are the countries we have left:

    Norway
    Cyprus
    Belgium
    Belarus
    Georgia
    Albania
    Iceland
    Ukraine
    France
    Armenia
    Portugal

  3. The metro must have forgotten about us when they wrote that article!

  4. Armenia please

    And the UK entry isn’t the worst ever – we’re always poor and we’ve had worse songs!

  5. Actually, Dan, any member of the European Broadcasting Union can compete take part in Eurovision, so Israel has every right to compete. Algeria and Egypt could enter as well if they wanted to. Booya.

  6. I’m sure Dan knows that – I think he’s just suggesting that Israel is as much part of Europe as the aforementioned Algeria and Egypt. Why are they here? Because the “European Broadcasting Union” is stupid. >.>

  7. His English is quite good though, for a second language.
    So many of the other contestants cannot sing in English at all, yet they attempt to.

  8. can someone please praise the amazing stage crasher in the spain entry. and MOLDOVA to win!!!

  9. Belarus: The only entrant that remembered to bring some Red Bull.

  10. I speak Greek :P. It’s all like “I’ve burnt up the past and everything that’s gone before” yada yada yada “I’ve paid all my dues…. OPAA!” etc. Odd.

  11. We were shocking. The backing singers were grunting rather than singing, me ears couldn’t take it!!! Josh did well though, but we won’t do half as well this year with that!

  12. Seriously people, don’t even consider voting for Greece. If we wanted/could afford to win, we wouldn’t have sent a bunch of booing gay Droogs.

  13. Emily Fairbairn wants me to ask if she can have Maldova.. I consider this cheating as it was quite clearly musical genius.

  14. i muted ukraines odd entry song and just listened to moldova again.

  15. Samantha Cowley: I feel like he would want to hump all of us
    Mike: Including me

  16. russia couldn’t even afford a real photograph of a woman for him to look at. this is just a bunch of peasants.

  17. Lena from Germany sang two Kate Nash songs on the idol show “Our star for Oslo” which Germany put on to find a contestant

  18. is that red button only on the remote control?
    i am watching online on iplayer..is there a button for translation for that too?

  19. N’evergreen? Has he been kicked in the nads? This is like a drunken Starship’s “Nothing’s going to stop us now”, meets Tina Turner’s “Simply the Best”. Still, at least it’s in tune, ahem, Britain!

  20. that guy doing a handstand is amazing. UK couldnt even attempt that.

  21. @Jim: cheers. would have been rather late anyway…

    My favourites: Germany and Moldova

  22. Russia won two years ago – Norway last time.

    So that’s the Eastern Block, then Scandinavia – so a Balkan Country to win this time?

  23. I’d say Moldova, France, Germany and probably Denmark, power-ballad heaven.
    Is it me, or would the Moldova entry mix well (read: is it vaguely plagiarising the Guru Josh Project’s “Infinity”?

  24. Moldova will winnnn but I don’t know much else. We’ve done a group sweepstake in the flat and I have Iceland, Armenia, Belarus and Denmark. I have no hope.

  25. eurgh, this is so sickly political. surely there should be something against a girl singing a platinum single.

  26. Nice one Germany! I won’t gloat about my spectacular win but I will be round in a bit to collect my winnings. It’s £2 per person, yeah?

  27. I was only slightly wrong with my choice of Romania (which I based entirely on the fact that it was the first one on my youtube recommendations) so I am quite chuffed.
