Eurovision 2013

[Tamas]

If I was voting, I would vote Estonia:

Better than the Danish entry, although I'm sure we're gonna win this year.

I didn't see our show, but it couldn't have been very good. This is our winner: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VL17Pdghdvo

Actually, listening to it it does have that Eurovision vibe that could net a lot of votes. Like that Norwegian dude who won some years ago.

[Tamas]

we are sending a hipster. I haven't listened to his song

[Liep]

You're not gonna win anyway, the Western Powers have regained control from the Eastern Mafia.

[Tamas]

actually, here it is:

this a guy who should probably -if must stick around music- stick to lyrics writing. Its a kind of cute-ish love song.

But it doesnt help that he will sing in hungarian, he has no voice whatsoever, and looks like a perfectly run of the mill hipster.

[Liep]

Not bad, but he needs a stage show befitting of Eurovision.

Just watched a rehearsal from Malmø. The guy playing the flute for the Danish song needs to time it better with the playback.

Only Euros can turn watching bad singing acts into a sport.

I'm surprised the Americans havent' done something like this. You know, the Worldvision contest.

[Legbiter]

Haven't heard this year's contribution but I'm certain it's terrible.

Apologies in advance.

[Syt]

I will miss this year's event - the hosts of our usual get-together are off on a vacation trip, other friends are at a festival, others are moving to a new apartment etc.

I think I will survive.

Meh, we have tryouts for American Idol for that.

It's a battle of nations. I don't think a state vs state competition could get to the same level of crazy. I mean, there were conspiracy theories about an Eastern Mafia some years ago with people crying that a western nation could never win again.

That is until next year when it turned out that it was in fact the western countries that voted only for western countries (and that one country who equals the largest immigrant group, in our case we gave some points to Turkey).

[Josquius]

What is particularly funny about it is you have some countries like Britain who treat it all like a big joke but then you have some who take it VERY VERY SERIOUSLY.

[Liep]

It's deflection, if the Brits had an actual chance to win they'd be on the boat with the rest of us.
