That Silvina Knight chick might just have acted it out. I mean, no one is THAT insane. Maybe it was all just a big joke no one really got. If so then it was a genuine kaufman-esque performance.
As far as the langauge discusson goes I'm still firmly convinced a good song can win regardless of the language. What you need to understand is that a lot of Eurovision viewers are older population - 50 and above - and chances are 80% of those people don't even speak english, so it wouldn't make any difference to them as to what language the song's been sung in. The Serbian entry was second last year and the Bosnian one was 3rd this year. And I have no illusions serbo-croatian language is THAT melodic or kind to the ear.They were just good songs. As simple as that. |

Iintriguing was that Romania has a definite neighbour problem. The slavic countries voted considerably below the average for them. Summa summarum, the countries on the top positions deserved it, whatever personal opinions we have! |

Silvia Night was great I voted for her in the semifinal. She had the same idea as the Lithuanians had - to parodize the whole Eurovision stuff, but in my opinion she carried it out in more sophisticated and elaborated way. She was a real postmodernist kitsch
Lithuanians were also a parody and it's so ironic that they made such a high place. And the most funny thing I saw in Estonian TV. People were interviewed in Helsinki, about their feelings that they have won Eurovision. An guess what - some guys were jumping and singing the Lithuanian song - "We are the winners of Eurovision!!!" I'm not surprised if this song will become an anthem of the Eurovision winners. |

P.S. People there thought Lordi's song was too complicated to sing off hand. |

Spyretto, your ears need cleaning out if you think 'We Are Winners' was better musically than 'Congratulations'. Her song was making a similar joke to the Lithuanian one, but in a much cleverer way too.

Yes, she was making fun in a more well-thought way than Lithuania - wouldn't say sophisticated, She didn't deserve to be booed, of course, her stage act was really good. But if you think either of the two songs deserved to qualify, then it's your ears that need to be checked, not mine. Finally, lyrics in the mold of "we will win Eurovision, blah blah"...have been done before in the contest, so they didn't break any new ground in that regard. Of course you can say whatever you want about how cool all those tacky acts were, and I wouldn't have much to say as there was not much at all musical about Athens. As I said, musically the worst contest in recent memory. Kate Ryan didn't qualify though she had a perfectly musical number. Why? simply because people like you are taking the piss by voting for acts like Lithuania's and Iceland's. The UK does the same thing every single year when voting. They were first to vote for Alf freaking Poier and that German bald dude, whatever his name is. So lets decide if we want to have a musical show or a show were shitty acts are taking the piss at Eurovision. As if it made any sense anyway. |
