pair of vile cowards

Yeah I noticed that, the lily livered cowards. :notimpressed: Best voice, best song from Israel.
Also loving Italy.

I'm happy that Norway went through, as I was worried that the Eurovision voters wouldn't really get the vibe that it's going for.

How the **** did Greece go through?:joker:

Switzerland were very good imo.

And I thought that Israel and Latvia's entries gave out good vocals.

And Estonia's entry made me laugh.:joker:

It doesn't seem to be going anywhere.


That Greek song was complete and utter garbage .. its not even a song

Sounds like a flamin backing track

The biggest cheer she got was when she danced with the female dancer with the three male dancers looking on .. yet this tuneless monstrosity is apparently better placed with the bookies than the UK entry

Not sure what I think of it.


Denmark was one of the best songs i felt .

She looked stunning but her voice wasn’t up to scratch .. she was flat - off key

Netherlands sounded like they’d taken bits of Barbie girl and bits of No No No No Limits

Absolute bollox


Denmark was easily the best song imho but didn’t even make it through


A few utter garbage songs went to the final

Yes was NewsnightHD BBC2
they had a Protester in the studio

He dresses as a Lady
and would have a Massive Party normally
but is pulled out as he wants Israel removed?


Please Note: It is fine to dress as a lady,
nothing wrong at all.

arista 10-05-2024 01:48 AM

Israel Band is far better than Ireland.

I'm still stunned Greece got through.

Both Greece and Cyprus in so I guess their 10s or 12s will go to each other as usual.

I actually loved Estonia's.

I would love Olly to do well but I think any could win this time.
Just as any could be last too.
Who knows.

I'll just enjoy it all through.
Someone has to win someone has to be last.
In Eurovision terms, that has been in the past been a kind of topsy turvey land after the votes are all in.

When ‘songs’ ( I’m being generous calling it a song) like the Greece one get through and others like the fabulous Denmark one get dumped it just highlights that it’s NOT a SONG contest at all !!!!

It's definitely not now Zizu.

For a while now it's evolved into what the effects were as they performed as to others on the stage or lighting and other effects.
Now it's evolved into a more theatrical production of staging which is heading to be more the competitive element to the show now.

Denmark, I agree, was miles better than Greece but that's the crazy voting of the Eurovision viewing audience.

I was watching a dvd I have of Eurovision from 1956 to 2014.
It only shows snippets of the songs which finished in the top 3 over those years.
It is incredible how the contest is now unrecognisable from even up to 2014 from 1956.

Nicky91 10-05-2024 07:41 AM

i voted for San Marino

sad they didn't go through :(


although like meat loaf said ''2 out of 3 ain't bad'' am happy with Estonia, Norway going through :clap1:

Denmark wasn't good at all, and Greece is such a solid well produced very modern song and act


Denmark very basic and super generic, and a bad singer

Nicky91 10-05-2024 08:08 AM

the mentality of estonia's daddies either


either dortmund winning the champions league or themselves winning eurovision


they replied dortmund fans all the way, since joost is gonna win


:love:


they just have fun and share their country's culture, also beautiful to see :D

joeysteele 10-05-2024 08:08 AM

Denmark was good and Greece were at best awful.
I'll stick with Zizu on that one.

No doubt Greece will get a likely 10 or 12 vote from Cyprus.
With Greece giving a 10 or 12 to Greece as is usual in their voting.
Immaterial of how awful the song is.

It is simply ridiculous

It is the reason we stopped watching the show years ago

I am only invested in it this year to support Olly and see how he does

Greece were of MTV EMA performance standard honestly


:clap1: :clap1:


Denmark wasn't good, they need to withdraw for one year to rethink their strategies in the contest i think, they kinda lost their mojo, although this was better than the tiktokker last year :laugh: Aura Dione however would've stood better chances at qualifying with her ''mirrorball of hope''

Olly will flop at juries because juries will immediately hear how weak his vocals are, and what a mediocre turd his song is, like a 3 yr old could've written that and as for the act, juries don't look at that


as for the televote, i feel the televoters won't buy this either, how plastic and over the top it is, compared to some real genuine very televote friendly crowdpleasers (Netherlands, Estonia, Italy, Greece, Armenia, Switzerland, Norway)
