DeeTillEhDeh Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 I'm glad Australia missed out. Forgive me for being old fashioned but, given it is called Eurovision, I'd much rather the winner was actually from Europe. They are a member of the EBU though. Looking forward to Mexico's entry next year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergie's no1 fan Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 I'm glad Australia missed out. Forgive me for being old fashioned but, given it is called Eurovision, I'd much rather the winner was actually from Europe. A non European nation entering with a Korean born singer as well, they stretched it a bit far this year! Worst winning song ever, I said at the start to the gf though, either go out all pop or sing about your dead Gran and your guaranteed to win. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sooky Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 It's not going to be our year, lads. Here are the 6 songs going to the live show on BBC Two this Saturday. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b08c7bxx/clips 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cliqued bullshit produced in the exact same way for each of them. Send a prerecorded video with a message of apology to Ukraine and save us the cost of turning up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all the great stuff they produce, such as dramas and documentaries, the BBC are really shite at entertainment and clearly don't shove much money into finding an act. For all their faults, I think I'd be quite pleased if ITV got a shot at this at some point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogmc Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Eurovision was pretty poor last year. None of the usual lunacy almost every song was bland and the scoring was a total shambles. First time I've ever been really bored by it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyerTon Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 This is the UK entry. 25 year old Lucie Jones, from Wales. She got to week 5 of the live shows on the X Factor in 2009. From Wiki: The X FactorJones auditioned for series 6 of The X Factor UK with the song "I Will Always Love You". She advanced to the live shows, and in week one, performed "Footprints in the Sand". She was eliminated in week five, in a final showdown against John & Edward. After her elimination, 1,113 viewers complained to ITV about the vote being rigged in John & Edward's favour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogmc Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 She has a good voice but the song is pretty boring. Probably the best of the 6 to pick but overall it's gonna be another meh showing in Kiev. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quentin Taranbino Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 The one by the lass Holly has the best and catchiest chorus - pretty lass too. The rest of the song is pretty guff though and she has zero performance 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sooky Posted January 30, 2017 Author Share Posted January 30, 2017 Think Lucie was the best of the six, though that's not saying much. The 2 men in particular were awful!Think it needs some drums chucked in, it could do with a little oomph. Also, I don't know if it was the same last year, but we've picked really early this year. Only a handful of other nations have announced theirs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sooky Posted January 30, 2017 Author Share Posted January 30, 2017 And one of those is Finland! It's a tad unusual, but it's not awful...I don't think... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

honestly united Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Zdob si Zdub are a tremendous band, So Lucky isn't anywhere near there best stuff though, Agroromantica and Ethnomecanica are tremendous albums 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
