Here, in the minds of people , Eurovision is a contest which helps to discover the different cultures or more precisely the different types of music/lyrics which represent, which have the "color" of a country. That 's why here people don't understand why Italians don't sing anymore Italian or Germans don't sing anymore with German Langage...because even a language gives a specific "sound" to a song.. Personally,I don't think it sounds so ridiculous as Idea... Indeed, I think it's more ridiculous to read, after, in all the newspapers: "Oh! Viva Bulgaria which is the Winner of Eurovision!!...with a Portuguese singer who sang a song written for the lyrics by a German and for the Music by a Greek. And this song , of course,is sang in English." It becomes as some soccer teams where you have just the supporters/fans who are native from the country, indeed...and after you sing "Yeah! XXCountry has won the cup!" That's why , as English is dominating now , we should transform a little the things in saying ...The Winner is "afvdgtSONG"...."We give 12 points to "afvdgtSONG"...." and we shouldn't speak any more about "countries" in this context... But of course, we are just chauvinistic... |

I wished people were more openminded and the native languages came back though. There's nothing worse than having to tolerate those horrible English accents and lyrics year every year. |

That's a bit of a paraniod stance, isn't it? If I didn't know any better I'd think you're one of those crazy seperatists from Quebec with mannic fear of anything remotely anglosaxon. It's weird how France is the only country who corelates singing in another language (and sometimes even speaking in one) as "abandonment of one's culture". It's even more ridiculous when it's coming from speakers of a language that has the 4th strongest speaking base on the globe and is in no way in hell endangered, nor is the french culture. Slovene on the other hand might be considered as endangered (only 2,2 million speakers in the world), yet we don't consider sending an english number to Eurovision as "endangering our culture". We take it for what it is - it's just a song competition. Doesn't mean we'll all of a sudden abandon our langauge or culture and start speaking in English exclusively. We're very protective (and sometimes equally paranoid) when it comes to preserving our language and herritage. But only where it counts. And Eurovision doesn't really count in that respect. Quote:
To sum it up... the current rules may not be perfect, but they're certainly more fair to everyone. If someone has a fabulous song in their native langauge and feel comfortable enough to showcase it, they're allowed to do so and if not they still have options to try it in a different language (not just english, remember... our 2002 entry almost went ahead and sang in German). |

And aye, I agree, it was all over one of the worst Eurovisions I've seen in later years (talking performances that is). However the winner of the contest is one of the very best during the contest's history for my part |
