welshbairn Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Given that former colonies always vote for their former rulers, we are guaranteed 12 from the convicts here. That plus all the soviets currently hating Russia, and there being no chance of the Germans giving Greece anything means we could be in with a chance of a top 10. I can't see any outstanding favourites, but considering there are loads of Russian speakers and loyalists in ex-soviet countries they've probably got a good chance. Sickly song though. UK don't have a lot of competition so hope you're right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 My favourite has never won in thirty-odd years, so bye-bye Israel. It'll be Russia, because they're favourites and I fucking hated it. Sorry. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie_M Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 (edited) Definitely not as many memorable or good songs as last year. Disappointing. Ours has the benefit that it is one of the few up tempo numbers this year. But it definitely didn't translate as well in the live performance as it does in the video. Quite like it, but didn't think the performance was all that great. From the favourites - prefer the Russian number to the Swedish. Italy was a bore fest. Israel was quality. Australia - hated when I first heard it but it was a grower. Definitely a polished performance and they'll get a few votes from the novelty of them being there, won't win though (would be good if they did as we'd likely host it for them you'd have to assume?)

BFTD Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Disappointed that none of the contestants were spirited away to an Austrian basement TBH. What's up the modern Eurovision thing of female singers pretending to be sorceresses? De Gea's wife was all over that tonight, with the wide hand movements. I keep expecting them to summon fireballs from their palms. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hillonearth Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 That's when you know it's been a poor one - the shite interval bit doesn't seem quite as bad as it normally does. Marilyn Manson's wee Georgian sister was the best of a bad lot I guess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
