So, I'm slow in figuring this out, but whatever...
Keep of Kalessin won their norwegian semi final, and will play in the Norwegian final leg Saturday, February 6th. I have a slight feeling they'll sweep through the finals too, but only time will tell of course. I haven't heard a single of the other songs this year. I must admit, I like the verses much more than the chorus on KoK's song. The chorus sound like a strangely "catchy" heavy metal tune, which didn't appeal to me that much, while the verses sounded much more like straight forward extreme metal. But I guess it's the catchy heavy metal-ness that will give them _any votes at all_. Hahaha Check out their first performance here Quote:

A ballad is the big favorite for the final? Hasn't there only been one ballad that has won for the past .. what ... 10-15 years, and that was that Serbian song if I'm not mistaken? Meeh... I dunno. I guess only time will tell.

You can sleep safe tonight. Keep of Kalessin didn't win the norwegian final. Some random guy I have no idea who is won, and thus Norway will not win two years in a row. If Keep of Kalessin had been sent to the european finals and had the right type of performance with a lotta pyro and stash they'd wipe europe clean of points, I'm quite certain. They'd get the same 'appeal' as Lordi, just trigger more people because they're more extreme. That won't happen now though

I don't think Keep Of Kalessin would have done well if they had won the final.The chorus was too weak,and the guitar solos were too hard for an average person.The song that won will do very well in Eurovision,I can see it winning the whole thing but public don't vote for the hosting nation in Eurovision that much

BBC announced two weeks ago that the composer of the entry will be Paul Waterman,who is responsible for Kylie Minogue's I Should Be So Lucky etc. The performer will be selected in a series of shows.So UK did not keep schtum at all

What does that have to do with anything? KoK is quite a technical band. There are tons of technical metal bands that can pull "worse" things off live flawlessly. Are you thinking people wouldn't like the solo because it's just too much? I'm quite certain that's part of what would've given them victory. They would be something different, and that gets attention, and that gets votes. That's how simple it works. Lordi was the perfect example of everything done correctly. With the same package on a different concept, and you'll win. That's virtually how every winner has won. It's really not all about the song, cause it's rarely the best song that wins. What KoK did however lack in their song, that may be essential, was a "catch line". Something that sticks in your head from the song... Quote:

And their performance was not enough to win the final,that's what I was trying to say.Lordi was visionally good and had a great PR work that gathered youngs that listened to metal and made them vote.We don't think that middle aged European audience voted for them,do we?
Personally I love Kok's song but I doubted it could win and it didn't. Serbia in 2007 won with a ballad,and Dima Bilan from Russia won with a song one can define a ballad in 2008.It's all about the performance,if you can impress the audience and make people vote for you,you win |

I believe I mentioned Serbia in my other post. They are the only ones winning with a ballad for like ... along time, and that specific year it was perfect timing compared to the rest of the field. It was in contrast to the abundance of foolish and non-serious acts coming up, and the abundance of plastic faces and pretty boys. And Dima Bilan's song wasn't a traditional eurovision ballad, and you know it

And Lordi's performance in the finnish finals weren't that fantastic either, although they had costumes. That was it. But the finnish flag top hat, wings, axe with pyro etc in the international finals, in addition to all the mystery around the people gave them the victory. KoK could easily have added the same show to their performance and created mystery around them after winning the norwegian finals... they had the potential, and now it won't be realized. Myyy point is that Didrik with his bland pretty face and a You Raise Me Up copycat song will hardly stand out... I guess only time will tell, but I expect Europe to offer a more deserving winner. I for one know that sending traditional eurovision songs isn't a good tactic and never worked for Norway I'll give it a listen later. Busy right now Is there a Eurovision website updated with all the final contenders in the international final in Oslo? |

This year seems to be one of the most boring ones... mostly ballads bleh...
I find the Isaraelian singer hot and I love ICELAND. Hera Björk has already tried several times to qualify and she made it with "Je ne sais quoi". She is a professional and I appreciate that! http://www.youtube.com/watch#!v=JviB...eature=related |

Peter Nalitch will represent Russia in Oslo
The Russian final: Peter Nalitch - "Lost And Forgotten" №1 Buranovskie Babushki (Grannies from Buranovo) №3 MIUSHA - Big Bang №22 I really like Buranovskie Babushki! Many of the participants of the 'Buranovskie Babushki' choir are well older than 70! |

Those babushkies shouldhave won and Russia is coming with a very weak song,unlike their previous entries.
