"I may not be hardcore enough for this thread, I only watch the final. "
Exactly the thought that came all over me after I read it. I needed a tissue after that.
anyway . . . But mark my words one and all, that no matter what lame ass song is chosen to represent us, or how many countries hate us soooo much but secretly want to be us.
We will survive.
We will prevail
This year baby. It's coming home |

They probably can't afford to host it. Bring back Johnny Logan |

"wow.... all my favs in..... and ireland get in!!!!!!!
it is very "western european" heavy......."
Good result! Best ones are through.
I'll be back for Thursday's semi. The first one on, Norway, is a previous winner and I think he's got a good chance |

"Looking forward to it. Put my bet on Cyprus to win this year "

"Well what a pile of rubbish that was tonight. Bookies must agree as well as Cyprus who were 5/2 yesterday and 2/1 tonight are now 11/8 to win it "
Rubbish?! Never heard Eurovision and that adjective in the same breath before

right..... for the degenerate gambler in me this is what i think...
winner tonight....cyprus.... but don't bet it as it is so short you won't win much back...
the value in betting tonight is to do it "each way"... and go for a top 4 finish...
so my each way value bets would be Norway, Sweden and possibly australia
countries who are fairly high in the betting i wouldn't vote on tonight would be israel... you will either love it or hate it... and ireland (because of the china controversy they have come right in but the proformance isn't going to be liked by a lot of eastern european countries)
dark horse countries who wont win by i like the song.... estonia and the netherlands
quirky proformances... moldova and finland on the wheel....
the scary ones... hungary!!!! and serbia..... |

oooh... just seen the running order for tonight.... and a lot of the big hitters are going near the end...
uk sing 9th... after the hosts portugal, which i don't think helps... i think they are looking at bottom 5...
moldova 19th, sweden 20th, israel 22nd (hungary inbetween will make for a hell of a contrast) netherlands 23rd, ireland 24th, cyprus 25th (2nd from last)......
the winner for me comes from those 6 as they are all different enough that it will make an impact...
in fact the only really dodgy songs from me in the 2nd half of the contest are bulgaria at 18, hungary's proper heavy metal which you will love or hate at 23... and italy going last at 26.
you can tell i am a eurovision nerd can't ya!!! |

"Il give it a side step far to political since iraq war"
you don't need to worry... the uk song isn't as good as most anyway, so we were never going to win this one!!!!
our best hope is australia, and there is "apparently" an agreement where if they were to win, we would get to host it (eurovision isn't keen on going on a jolly to sydney for some reason!!! lol) |

And this German thinks he’s Ed Sheeran .... and he really isn’t . Boring and a German singing with an Irish accent ? Nah ... I think I’ve had enough now , especially after Graeme said Germany are expected to do well .... |

Got to say this has been the best Eurovision for years, some great songs, and the gin is going down nicely. Cyprus is boring, no idea why it's the favourite |
