Sue Denim.. Posted May 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 Well my personal top 5 wereFinlandFranceBosnia & HerzegovenaAlbaniaSpain. ..... and I'm glad Britain came in the bottom 3 because it was all Terry Wogans fault for choosing him on the 'Song for Europe'. .. It was quite funny listening to Terry's commentry at the end. His utter disbelief that he'd chosen a dud to represent our country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murrr Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 Nah, that one with the crazy old dude shouting at the audience/scratching vinyl on a gramphone was fucking dynamite. Croatia was it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeanette Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 It's also quite amusing to read the descriptions on the bbc website...

Memphis Skyline Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 Bosnia and Croatia were the highlights for me.And Terry Wogan is a sarcastic old git! In a good way!*Obligatory Green Room shot of Euro-presenters having kerrazy party backstage"Terry voiceover: "Now there is a party I wouldn't want to go to even if I was on my deathbed" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strat Harry Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 Here are my top 3 favourites from last night:Bosnia's simply amazing song And here is the France firing in a proper songI know the spain entry was crap, but does anybody know why the audience were booing at the end, there were plenty of other crap songs that didnt get jeered.

KimyReizeger Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 Something that occurred to me:This contest is evidently nothing to do with music. Ok, that's fine, nothing revolutionary there. We can assume then it's just a tradition which has degenerated into clownish humour and extravagance, but sustains itself on the basis of this tradition (and also its popularity in other countries).Ok, so bearing in mind the UK is consistently not voted for, why did Katrina and the Waves win it in '97? Was it due to the quality of the song, and was this breaking a trend? Was the competition less farcical then? (this I have to doubt, as I distinctly remember a hilarious German entry from the same year). Explain please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scootray Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 Why do we even contribute to this pish?So we can be guaranteed a place in the finals on a Saturday night?I'd rather not, thanks.Note to Mr Brown: Save the economy by stopping paying for the Eurovision!

Jeanette Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 Note to Mr Brown: Save the economy by stopping paying for the Eurovision!Is it not the BBC and the tv licence payers money that contributes?!

kirsten Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 Here are my top 3 favourites from last night:Bosnia's simply amazing song And here is the France firing in a proper songConcurrence. And Latvia as they got our whole party singing "Hi-hi-ho and hi-hi-hey!"Been obsessed with that Tellier song for about 2 months now. Still no idea what the hell Chivers are though... my sister was gonna write on her Party Invitations, "PS: Please bring an object that symbolises your interpretation of the word Chivers" but decided against it.I drew Bosnia at aforementioned party. Before they played, I was cursing the fact I didn't get France, but B&H did me proud! UK was pish, but not even people here ever want the UK to win, so it's aaaall good.

Lucius Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Ok so here's a question for all you Eurovision fans.If Terry Wogan does give up commentating on Eurovision who should take over?I have a few names going round my head right now but they would have some might big shoes to fill.

Lucius Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 We definetely need someone whos going to take the piss.Would love hearing Harry Hill having a go.Or stay with an older guy who can be serious but wil just say the first thing tat pops into his head why not Eamon Holmes. He's great on Sky News. Even with serious stories you can tell he's thinking of a good joke or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diesel Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Ok so here's a question for all you Eurovision fans.If Terry Wogan does give up commentating on Eurovision who should take over?Claire GroganHer simpering over-enthusiasm and toe-curling faux mid-Atlantic accent would be a perfect counterpoint for the platter of turds that is the Eurovision Song Contest.
