I have listened Lordi at work and i think that contest song was pretty poor...Only time i was pretty interested about eurovision song contest were when they was choosing contest song from Finland (2000 or 2001) where also Nightwish was one choice but Nightwish never got to win because it was too "heavy metal" then so they picked some crap from Finland and ofcourse we lost to every other country lol. -------------- -TB Limited ultimate edition 2009 (still sealed) -Hergest Ridge Limited 2010 #017 -Ommadawn Limited 2010 #065 -Incantations Limited 2011 #003 -Platinum Limited 2012 #316 -QE2 Limited 2012 #112 -Opening Ceremony London 2012 #61 -Five Miles Out 2013 Limited LP #116 -Crises 2013 Limited LP #259 Back to top

SoimSandheaver Group: Members Posts: 325 Joined: May 2006 Posted: May 11 2007, 19:15 I personally think that the UK's chances of ever winning again are as slim as the chances of a hippopotamus in the Grand National. Although, our entry is more likely to do better than almost all of our previous entries since the turn of the Millennium. I thought the Israeli entry was fun to listen to. From what I've heard, the German entry is one of the favourites to win. I haven't really had much of a chance to listen (or more importantly as is the case these days, watch) the entries yet. -------------- "Three blokes go into a pub, one of them's a little bit stupid, then the whole scene unfolds, with a tedious inevitability."

olracUK Group: Members Posts: 1683 Joined: June 2003 Posted: May 11 2007, 20:08 The Ark (sweden) is pretty cool a good bet. But it's funny how so many entrants have gone the "leather" route after Lordi last year. At least most songs this year are getting close to what we hear on the radio every day. The Brit entry really is a throw-back to the worst cheesy days of euro-pop, and in a way I salute them for doing that. we all need a bit a na-na-naa-ba-da-ba-daa-da in our lives sometimes!   -------------- The answer is 42 - but what is the question?
