Cloud Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 This just had to be posted...The UK entry better win it this time round, we've got an absolutely ridiculous song that sticks in the head. Anyone that doesn't like it must be soulless - just because it's so stupid For anyone that hasn't seen it - YouTube - Scooch - Flying The Flag (For You) UK Eurovision Entry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cloud Posted May 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 As usual, you're wrong.It's utterly fucking gash.Exactly, it's what makes it utterly brilliant And hey, it might be the last time the Union Flag gets used in such a blatant way...

medichi Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 No, thats just awful. Holy fucking shit, how bad can one song be! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodast Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Agh... that's horrible. It would be nicer to have a song that stuck in your head for being annoying sounding - that one is just... nothing. Yamaha PC50 with no batteries could write a better Eurovision song for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swingin' Ryan Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 The fact they hold up British flags at the end is probably the best advert for Independence I've ever seen.At least they managed to ladle in some gay innuendo and play up to gay stereotypes as much as possible and all under the name of Britain."God Save Our Gracious Queen....etc" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camie Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 It's absoloutly hilarious, but there's no way you can win it.It's one of those songs that kids play loud on their mobile phone to piss everyone on the bus off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest treader. Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 i still stand by my opinion that had the darkness w/ justin written a eurovision song, they would have won hands down. they are just the kind of ridiculous "cheesy but serious about it" band that would love it.

Foreskin Ninja Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Fucking awful, who has the final say in which song gets put forward? I can see someone thinking it would be ok as a gimmick but why not choose an artist that is actually talented instead of adding to the shit reputation Eurovision already has.

I can see someone thinking it would be ok as a gimmick but why not choose an artist that is actually talented instead of adding to the shit reputation Eurovision already has.The people did.Thing is, it's an absolutely ridiculous song. It's awful, it knows it's awful and they're blatantly just having a laugh doing it - I mean, the innuendo is bound to fly over most European's heads, which makes it all the better.As for Eurovision having a shit reputation - well, considering it gets decent viewing figures all over Europe, it can be said to be one of the very few non-sporting programmes that actually gets decent pan-European figures. Hardly shit, really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam the Eagle Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 i still stand by my opinion that had the darkness w/ justin written a eurovision song, they would have won hands down. they are just the kind of ridiculous "cheesy but serious about it" band that would love it.There was not a hope in hell of it winning. It might've done okay, and got 4's and 6's off some of the scandanavian states, but no, it would not 'have won hands down.' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is honestly how the country as a whole want to be represented as far as musical talent goes, well, I'm speechless.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Jack Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 It's not even funny in a 'so bad it's good' sense. Not even the students find this ironically good. It's just desperate. i don't understand how they can sleep at night tbh. Imagine them telling their grandkids (well, not the dark haired bloke obviously) about their life achievements"Well, I was a part-time tv presenter and member of Scooch"Incidentally, the blonde-haired bloke claims he was born in 1980. If he's under 30, he's had a fucking hard life... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diesel Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 51 seconds I lasted.Absolutely awful.It reminds me of the theme for "Help, I'm a Fish..." - a god-awful kids movie that my daughter made me take her to see.This is just as bad.Never one to miss a sexist trick - may I point out that both the girls are pumpable?It would have to be orally though, to mitigate the risk of either of them bursting into song mid-ride.

Captain America Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 They'll no doubt have had a wee shot of botox pre-eurovision though... they could all certainly do with it.I doubt you could even see the botox... Not through that inch thick layer of make up they've got on.Also I saw on telly last night, apparently they've recorded versions in most of the major European languages and the translations have made the innuendos even worse."Would you like something to suck on for landing, sir?"Apparently turned into something along the lines of,"Would you like me to suck something for landing."

Stichman Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 Who gives a crap?Of course it's awful. It's Eurovision. Next year we should send in some 12-year-olds playing Nirvana covers just to take the piss a little more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HummerOfIntenseEvil Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 Bulgaria's song is easily the best of this year's lot. Although Ukraine's one (written by Trey Spruance) is rather fun.YouTube - Eurovision 2007 - UkraineDid you know Ricky Maritn was singing Greece's one?YouTube - Eurovision Greece 2007: Sarbel - Geia Sou MariaSweden obviously watched the MacDonald Brothers' rendition of Shang A Lang a bit too muchYouTube - Sweden Eurovision 2007, The Ark, The worrying kindPoland do American "r'n'b" better than the Americans Looking up Eurovision entries on youtube gets boring after a while.Bulgaria to win, though.

Paranoid Android Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 I can't believe Scooch are still trying, they never made it the first time when there was arguably a bigger market for terrible cheesy pop.I can't possibly take them seriously after seeing one of the men on the channel 4 show where they tried to turn men into a succesful girl group o_O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
