you care about who enters Eurovision?

 

[SelimNiai]

Exactly, normally we have a Graham Norton special allowing us to at least choose the "musician" who will get us nil points. I've not paid much attention to eurovision since Lordi won it on 06

you care about who enters Eurovision?

I care that as a tax payer I should have some chance to have a say on who we enter. Hump is old, last year Britain was on the right track on how to enter, now they've gone 5 steps back.

Need to bring back the Wogan also.

 

[psychic duck]

they should just choose like a real joke ... I think this guy would be perfect

I remember a time when Eurovision saw real talent battle it out. I remember ABBA. I remember this:

We have real talent now. The Jedwards are going for Ireland for the next 10 years. And we're all gonna like it....or else...

Doesn't matter who you send anyway. An island can not win the Eurovision anymore. Not enough neighbours.


And Psychic Duck...real jokes don't work. We sent a Turkey and he got booed off in the 'semis'. Them eastern European's take this shipt seriously (which is ironic seeing as they undermine the whole thing with their block voting).

 

[Conal]

who cares??? irs an excuse for me to laugh at ludicrous music and drink!

http://www.aleth.talktalk.net/eurosong.html might edit this a bit for this year

 

[TRF_Olyy]

We've gotta lose that Sax solo

 

[cyRil]

Olyy's done me by 10 minutes!! I was just about to burst into 'Myy lovely horse running through the - fiiiieeeeeellds!!

Eurovision has gone all politics these days. The UK will never win it due to the whole War on Iraq and the middle east debate.

We could reserect the beatles and enter them and we still would finish near the bottom end of the eurovision table. As brits we must just sit back, crack open a beer (providing you are 18 or over ), order in takeout and just enjoy the OTT Campy cheese fest that is Eurovision
