Topic: Eurovision 2008?

I have no clue whether one was created before. It certainly seems strange that our European dominated boards do not have a thread for this already (or is Eurovision not as big a deal as I thought?)

Anyhoo, I've listened to a few of the songs and I think I like Andorra's entry. From a purely music point of view, what song(s) do you like?

Are there CDs compilations of all Eurovision songs of that year?

Re: Eurovision 2008?

Most of us don't care at all.

I'll never know if it was worth the pain, but I still loved it more than anything in the world - it was my life.

I really like France's song!

I like his Jesus-like appearance too big_smile
He appears to be a musical friend of Air and Daft Punk..

Eurovision is a great invention. Agreed, it's crammed with horrible songs and bad taste, but that makes it so great. It's embracing vulgarity. Best served with cold beer and a large bowl of crisps!

EDIT: watch out for Latvia! They're the ultimate unit of awful bad taste!

Re: Eurovision 2008?

Year after year after year we (Belgium) manage to send in the most sucky songs ever, i truly wonder how they do it.

What do I have to work with?

Re: Eurovision 2008?

any scantily cladded slut prancing around? links would be appreciated

as for belgium sending bad songs... that's the mentality of the beast... for decades we said "umm yeah this is a typical song festival song, let's send this one", I remember that justification coming back again; naturally most of these songs sucked fat ass and were totally bland compared to say the songs ireland or some scandinavian countries sent over; nowadays things are more commercial and there are preselection rounds for the selection to go to the eurovision song festival and the jurors go on TV and say things like "umm this is nice but it's a typical song festival song so we're not going to send this or we'll do bad" even if the song isn't half bad and has scantily cladded sluts prancing around (to be fair there are also bad entries with scantily cladded sluts prancing around though)

you see the problem?

Re: Eurovision 2008?

Lol..maybe Eurovision is popular only in certain segments of society.  There has to be a reason it keeps coming back.

Re: Eurovision 2008?

England competes and not the UK?

They should do "Crazy Frog"!

do they allow armpit-farting in place of vocals?

Beer is cooling, my son set the tv to change channels at the start already.

Eurovision is a good reason to stay in for a totally funny saturday night.

We will be in the masses cringing at all the nil points UK get again, fully deserved ofc big_smile
