    Hungary is not bad so far. The song is decent.

    Do you think they might of used auto tune in the past as all 3 have been crap so far?

    Ah I doubt something like that could have been kept quite, way too many acts involved and all it takes is one to think they got a raw deal and spill the beans :confused:

    Amazing backing whistlers. Did they audition for this? Would love to see the casting call.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,005 ✭✭✭✭Toto Wolfcastle


    This one is okay. I'd be surprised if it didn't get through.

    Very nice of them to call up 3 bit actors from the IT Crowd to do backing vocals


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,099 ✭✭✭✭Busi_Girl08


    Does that drummer just follow the eurovision trail every year hoping someone with a contemporary song wants a traditional feel?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,444 ✭✭✭✭Skid X


    Freddie could be a decent on-call Boyband tribute act stand-in, he looks like lots of people.


  • Registered Users Posts: 215 ✭✭Lunger


    This is the most Eurovision song thus far.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,133 ✭✭✭Stevecw

    Hello, hope you don't mind me joining in!

    I've only seen Hungary so far and thought he was awful. He was gorgeous but he was so out of tune!

    Croatia sounds like Ellie Goulding to me. Not the best and not the worst. Very forgettable I think!
