    the andorran entry is quite interesting - a vanessa phelps type woman who seems to be surrounded by what can only be described as scantly clad transvestites.

    I wonder if the Irish guy has realised yet, that he's going to look like someone's dad singing at an 18th birthday rave? :rolleyes:

    How could we have picked a 60's song in 2006? Everyone knows that the modern Eurovision is all about dance/disco, not 'ballads' :confused:

    He'll get bemused looks and polite applause at best, that's if they don't think he's the interval act....


    EDIT:>

    Vote Finland for the WIN!!!! :D

    My god! Brian is fab but surely that song is now not a "typical" euro song! :rolleyes: I mean its all dance now! Poor Brian.

    Yup he looks fairly out of place in between the two hotties


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,482 ✭✭✭RE*AC*TOR


    well its certainly no worse a song that any of the rest I've heard so far. however, he's up against it witout the tit and ass factor and not being from eastern europe

    What was with the belt though? Did she win a boxing championship?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,046 ✭✭✭democrates


    Have only been watching for a bit, but Estonia are looking good.
    She's got the looks, upbeat song with enough key changes and retro abba harpsichord to
    make it a good summer radio hit regardless of eurovision.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,216 ✭✭✭✭monkeyfudge


    I liked that Bosnian one there...

    It had a leggy accordion player too... nice

    Iceland sounds like a cat being strangled...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,231 ✭✭✭✭Sparky

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,231 ✭✭✭✭Sparky


    wow some decent women.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,054 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Was studying - just tuning in to see the recaps of the entries!

    That Finnish entry was genius! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,194 ✭✭✭Corruptedmorals


    Poland were plain weird, and then at the end..the whole 'she's going to have a baby!' thing!

    I liked Netherlands, thought that was really good. Turkey was disturbing...that girl was so manly! Lithuania- was that a stand-in act?

    Really hope Lordi win, that was excellent.
