StephenFord Posted May 18, 2019 Author Share Posted May 18, 2019 Never heard it, I'm sure it will do as well as it always does LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenFord Posted May 18, 2019 Author Share Posted May 18, 2019 Of course I'm not ;'watching' it, but some of the acts look remarkable easy on the eye. Am I allowed to say that? I'm quite old and not very PC LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenFord Posted May 18, 2019 Author Share Posted May 18, 2019 This is very sad, I'm obviously on my own here on the forum on a Saturday night whilst all you young'uns are out partying the night away! Oh well, hope you're all having fun... 😛 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenFord Posted May 18, 2019 Author Share Posted May 18, 2019 mmm... we came last, I blame Brexit! LOL Surprise worst performance was Madonna who sang decidedly off tune (flat), but I'm guessing she'll blame a system malfunction. Night folks, until next year... 😛 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StephenFord Posted May 19, 2019 Author Share Posted May 19, 2019 I reckon the voting could take place just as accurately without the actual songs being performed! 🤣 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still works for me, though......😀 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert27 Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 I used to watch it but prefer not to have a headache these days so don't bother. I remember a decent year though, 2005 when Helen Paparizou won with "number one" (not sure if it was her or the song that got my vote, probably a mix of both!) Those were good old days of eurovision lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before you completely judge my motives........there was some greek dancing in the song At the risk of sounding like a Eurovision geek, there have been some very under rated songs. Could never understand why Kati Wolf's "What about my dreams" didn't win in 2011 or Azerbaijan "Always on my mind" in 2009 although there is a common theme with some of these songs 😄 . I stopped watching in 2012.......i think..... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 I'd like to see scooter doing the Eurovision; And I'm now thinking why did they never do it? They have over one hundred mad Eurovision style tunes like "oi" and "jumping all over the world" 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have over one hundred mad Eurovision style tunes like "oi" and "jumping all over the world" I think Oi may not quite pass the censors somehow (btw love that song).Eurovision has always been more of a political thing rather than a music contest anyway, if other countries don't like you (no matter how good the song) then you have no chance.So that's us stuffed for a very long time.

Do you have to be part of the European union to compete? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy Heaton Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 We had friends round and score boards and a sweepstake. It's just a bit of fun, you have to just smile at it. Being in Eurovision has nothing to do eith geography, it is countries that belong to the European Broadcasting Union. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
