I'm accidentally watching a show with (some of?) the songs from this year's final (there's a game on the same stream in a few minutes), and I have to say that the worst song so far is the British one. fecking hell, it's actually far worse than all the Eastern European and Scandinavian shite. Well done, UK!
Grand Prix, Eurovision, or whatever
- Thread starter Laphroaig
- Start date
In other words: that does not sound good to me!
If it's the one i heard on the BBC a few months back, yeah it isnt' up to much. Flat as a pancake.
I've just popped along to the official site to and i think Scandinavia could be in with a chance of keeping the hosting rights, although this time it would be Sweden rather than Norway.

I'm pretty sure we're rubbish this year. The guy practically can't speak English.
Admittedly i only looked at a handful but i think this ticks a fair few Eurovision boxes:
The Irish could do better than they've done in a while.

Yeah, Sweden stands a good chance, pompous, catchy and happy-blonde enough to go down well with the audience all around Europe I imagine. But the guitar gimmick is annoying, she's not playing it, is she?
For a second there i was a bit taken aback, not often you see a guitar soloist on Eurovision, but it was apparently as you say, just a gimmick.
The UK should draw on all of the four home nations IMO, Welsh male voice choir, bagpipes, morris dancers, fronted by Snow Patrol.
They need to drop out of the eurovision, they are embarrassing themselves each year, so needless too.
Ireland are trying to qualify tonight, and if you get a chance check out Lithuania's act. Just saw them on the TV, highly entertaining.
Can't beat a bit of Eurovision.

so far so shit
Denmark was great. Very cheesy.
I hope Ireland get through and win. We had to guess the winner at our pub quiz and we put Ireland - we'll get five points if they win, or if they are the highest placed out of those guessed.
From what the quizmaster said, we won't be the only team to get five points - just about everyone put Ireland.

Romania's is catchy.
Ireland. A bit boring.
Croatia 
Haha, I know I just tuned in for ten minutes before I go on my mid week piss up. That chick from Georgia has a brilliant voice.
Have a feeling Turkey will do a Lordi this year.
fire - desire
probably one of the most if not the cheesiest and lazy rhyming

Ireland have no chance I mean if this didn't win it for them what will!!
I'll be happy if we beat France in the Eurovision now.
Get the feck in!!!!
I've never been so proud of being Danish.

I just hope to feck Norway don't win it. My God, how much can you print about that shit in a year? And then we have to host the bloody thing.
Nobody cares! Nobody!!
Nobody cares! Nobody!!
How on earth did that go through? One of the worst in a fecking awful bunch, congrats.
Very surprised Sweden went out. I was certain they were able to win the whole shebang. I guess I should be pleased about not having a clue about Eurovision then.
Anyone watching?
Yup, gewwwwwon Ireland.
I'm quite enjoying this televised freak show.
Bloody hell, Belgium with an alright song.
What is this?
Poor Vidic.
moldova were feckin ace.
Even Vuc could not say the Serbian entry was not shite.
Is this a woman or a man? I genuinely have no idea. It looks like a woman but sounds like a man.
It went down well with the crowd, clapping along even.
wasn't your usual eurovision fare.
Check Graham Norton trying to be funny.
I think I may be the only person in Norway not watching it. Who's winning?
After seeing Britain's act this year I have full confidence in myself that I can be the act next year. Where do I sign up?
Here come the Irish.
