The Official Eurovision Song Contest Thread

I've got my TV on and my headphones plugged in, but they're not on my head, so I'm luckily hearing none of these awful songs.

Watching the show without sound, reading the subtitled lyrics occasionally (yes, they're subtitling the lyrics =x) makes it all seem even more camp. The dance choreography is hilariously embarrassing in pantomime.

One more performance before Lordi invades Greece~

There's nowhere I can't reach.

GO LORDI. If they win, I swear it's gonna be the best year EVER.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I was just called to the living room to see Lordi by my parents who were having a good laugh about them, but think they should win as they are better than most acts there

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I'm beginning to think Andorra is going to get voted a winner just so they get those "dancers" on stage for an encore.

Anyone who missed seeing Lordi, watch their number here:

I was speaking idiomatically.

Didn't watch the semi-final, but from the looks of it most of the more enjoyable songs from that samples link on page 1 got knocked out. Oh well, it is further assurance my loyalties won't be conflicting on the night - Go DJ Daz!

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Haha, looks like Lordi is going to take home the whole thing =D

FELIPE NO

I can't believe we are doing so well. Finland's never had this much points =o

Most amazing jew boots

Will Lithuania win, who knows

They should, tho

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Well I don't think that Lordi was bad, but uhh if they win that would be a scandal or something like that (?)

There's nowhere I can't reach.

they are winning only because they are diffrent, this shit has gotten retarded no one takes it seriously anymore.
CAROLA >(((((

no homo

It's pretty much all over now, Lordi being up 50+ points. I guess this is what happens when you have a contestant which doesn't give people the exact same song and stageshow as the rest of the ones.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

As delirious I am that Lordi is leading, especially because of how many people said it can't be done, but everyone is going to hate them now when they win.
We'll be forced to host it all next year which is going to suck big time, plus we all know Finland can't repeat the success


EDIT:
Ahaha, I can't believe we broke the point record. Most points for any country~

How ya doing, buddy?

They cannot be passed anymore, congrats Lordi

I think this is pretty much an éclat, but hey, that's what makes Eurovision great.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

WTF.

Seriously, though, folks. \o/

Most amazing jew boots

I will turn off the TV now, what is this shit....

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

People took the Eurovision contest seriously?

Well done Finland. Good to see the UK did better than the previous years, I still dont see why the hell we dont just pull out of the whole thing.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

UK was horrible, 4 real what was that shit.

no homo

Well come on, it's not like Eurovision has always been that bad

Because they need our money. Simply.

Anyways, who takes Eurovision seriously? Man, the only reason I watched it was for a good laugh, and it didn't disappoint, and neither did Mr Wogan.

I like how it seems that people are suprised by this outcome. What we had here was 21 x the same boring ass, unbearably bad shit as always and Lordi. Of course people were going to vote like crazy for them.

Hopefully this will bring about some real change as far as the contestants and the songs go in the future.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Yes uhh I am surprised. I thought that Lordi was fun and all, but uhh I wonder never ever thought that people would be that ignorant. There were some very good songs like the one from Lithuania and the "there's always the same" argument is pretty weak in my opinion because there WAS quite a lot of variety this time.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Don't be daft. Next year it will be, once again, 24 x (Power ballads + Eurobeat).

FELIPE NO

EVVVVVIIIIGGGGHEEET

Carola did a mistake by singing in english, her song was better in swedish.

Most amazing jew boots

What the hell are you talking about, the Lithuanian one was awful.
"hrhr, we are being really clever and knowing wink at the camera, too bad we didn't try REVERSE psychology hr"

I'm surprise they got so many points as they did. There were a few decent songs there, but overal it was as bad as usual.

How ya doing, buddy?

The Lithuanian song should have won >=/

There's nowhere I can't reach.
