Eurovision 2011(Germany)
The contest will take place in Dusseldorf.
Famous boyband Blue will be representing the UK with their new song "I Can". That's a big thing for me as they were so popular in Europe when they kept releasing singles. Previous winner of the contest Lena will compete again for Germany. According to a gossip, UK band Hurts submitted a song for Russian selection (wtf?) Several countries have selected their songs but none of them is worth a second listen. Tell us what your country has to offer for Eurovision! My country-Turkey- selected the band Yüksek Sadakat(High Fidelity in English) and the song is still to be announced. |

Dudağımda yarım kalan söylenmemiş son sözümdür... Baki olsa da ayrılık, Aşk her daim ölümsüzdür... Varsın eller gönül yarası kapanır sansın, Kabuğun altında sevgili sen kanayansın... |

On February 12th the finals in Norway will be held, so our contribution will be known then. Also this year an extreme metal band is applying, Susperia, but their song fell out of the first semi finals and are part of the "second chance" knock out. Probably won't make it, so it'll most likely be the generic sappy crap this year as well
The metal song isn't that good either. It's toned down. The vocalist doesn't do his normal raspy growling vocals, but sings clean, and the melody is borderline happy metal. I guess they hoped that would make it more likely to win, but meh... Hehe. Listen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gEQOUEG1mPs |

I loove a song from Ukranian selection, a girl with a great voice and a piece that may get the title in Dusseldorf.
Zlata Ognevich - Kukushka http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nd_N6VsdIuQ |

What do you mean by "qualified"? I thought that she qualified to the national final?
I love Jamala's and Prikhodko's songs too but I love Kukushka more And to add a new thing. The national tv would not pay any money to the PR activities of the song. In that case they would like to have someone with money and we know who got more money than any other, that is Prikhodko, in fact she won the Russian national final the same way two year ago. What about Russian selection? I don't know anything about it. |

Yes, of course she is. But she has not won it and with time other artists get better chances (when the artistical value gets less important than the economical one). Well, Prihod'ko isn't very rich, she won Russia's qualification because of her (meanwhile ex-)producer Konstantin Meladze and the wife of the boss of Channel One (Nastya's artistical and executive Star Factory producers). If bribe (main sport in Ukraine!) and advertising plays the dominating role then A.R.M.I.A should be the winner. Producer Yurij Nikitin has five successful girlgroups running (plus Verka Serdyuchka), which brings him more money than any other project of the contest.

Insider joke: Russia wants to get into the Guiness Book. On one day they will publish the conditions of participation, make the selection and prepare everything necessary for the departure of the winner to Germany. |

So much info, thanks Argos! That Armiya is like Ukranian Pussycat Dolls!
I don't think Russia will go for national final, they would choose internally. Who do you think Perviy Kanal would offer to? Could it be Yulia? |

Hello. Tell me please, when will begin the selection of Eurovision? In other countries the selection is either in full motion, or already done. But here - deadly silence. Or, maybe there will be no selection? Channel One will choose the participant on their own? Channel One: Vera, the selection will begin soon. There will be a notice about it's beginning on air and on the site. By the way, an intermediate result of Ukrainian fan votings. Moronic... El' Kravchuk on No1, do they have bees in the ears? And Zlata far behind! |

I read something that there was a cheating on the online voting. They say Jamala's votes are overcounted but who knows.

Ok, this is Austria's entry, and I swear I didn't vote for her! At least she wrote this herself.

Blah, really boring. Trackshittaz were much much better
Ukraine chose another boring ballad from Mika Newton amongst a good number of interesting acts. Wanna listen to the Turkish song? We could even win this time from this bunch of garbage. Yüksek Sadakat - Live It Up http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pn3E351esUI |

Usually I can't bear hip-hop. But "Oida, taunz!" is a masterpiece (of plain nonsense, of course! )....and we paranoids are sure that the votings were manipulated.

For Ukraine as well as for Russia there is a simple rule to have good results in ESC. Get a well known performer with a song which goes to heart (if you don't have something super-duper). This makes people in the (not so different) neighbouring countries vote for you. Zlata could have got more points in the west, but she would have failed in the 'dominion'. There was no reason for the jury to overrule the results of the peoples' choice. The only question was: Is Mika still known in the neighbouring countries, after she was practically absent during the last three years? By the way, her singing performance was by far the best I've ever heard from her. |

I think the song is ok, and think the same way. It'll be in the final thanks to the voting of neighbouring countries. So WTF about Russia? Did they forget that they have to choose a song

By the way, the Glukoza song is cool! It could be chosen too. It's said that babushki group which became second last year is invited too. |
