Well, it just goes to show that whining about political voting makes no sense when Sweden won and Denmark and Norway did shyte
They won for a reason, so good on em!
Well done Sweden, good song - no doubt! and apparently the lead singer was outspoken about those who lost their homes, in order to host the competition and human rights so that's pretty cool..she wasn't silent about it.
Well done Sweden.0 -

I say fair f*cks to them!
nice to see begrudgery alive and well in Ireland :rolleyes:
Trying to make a name for themselves? Their target audience is teenagers, they are not serious preformers. They have made money but they won't have a long term career and they are a novelty act. They just annoy the hell out of me.0 -

He's quite popular in Germany, and has been since his Eurovision success at both ends of the '80's, among other places.
I don't care if it sounds naff to say this, but the guy has bucketloads of talent. I once heard him sing the Lighthouse Family number 'lifted' and making a decent job of it: just his voice, nothing propping him up.0 -

Actually, it's spelled Engelbert and yes, he's been dead since 1921 and shows no signs of recovering. However, his works - especially his opera Hänsel und Gretel - are still performed fairly regularly.
I believe there's a half-English, half-Indian geriatric pop singer, real name Arnold George Dorsey, who also calls himself Engelbert Humperdinck and is only slightly less dead. :rolleyes:0 -

Top marks for this and double if you didn't do a google search:).
(I must admit that I thought he died before 1921 but I'll bow to your superior knowledge).0 -
