LOVE TO LORDI!

I watched all the voting and some of the acts. Fuckin hell fire, Eurovision is cringeworthy but piss funny. What a shambles it was (the hosts didnt have a clue!) and for 90% of the countries i correctly picked who they were gonna give the 12 pts to. Its all about geography :wink:

The entire thing is political, doesn't really matter how good/bad the band is, every country votes for other countries they get along with. However I do think that Finland deserved to win because they were completely different to every other country! Terry Wogan's comments are mint:
"Spain lost the plot years ago!"

Edit: Just found this on the BBC Have Your Say section on Eurovision

Was a little dissapointed that parents were not warned about the appearance of the Finnish band that won. I let my 7 and 5 year old stay up to watch the competition as a treat. As I know many other parents did. Shame that what has in the past been a fun song competition for the whole family to enjoy has upset so many children and been the cause of nightmares. Feel the organisers of Eurovision should have said such costumes were inappropriate for this event.

I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, but seriously, Lordi is a cheap fleeting band, as well as their music. How could they win?

Second after him would have been the UK.


They were both excellent and far suppased those idiots that won

Because they are different, and did something that has never been done before (I think). But hey, we get votes anyway, it doesn't matter what song/singer we have... :P :P :P

The Irish guy was one the best, i felt, in terms of musical talent. However, his performance and song were a bit boring.

lol at school today everyone was singing 'we are the winners... of eurovision XD'

You lot clearly dont get eurovision, the whole point of it is that its terrible, thats what makes it so damn awesome. Eurovision has its own type of music. I mean cmon, all the music talent we have in this country, and we put in Daz Samson XD

Eurovision is an annual competition between the European countries where we all submit a singer/band and they sing and every country votes for who they want to win (you can't vote for your own country obviously). Its mostly political, as neighbouring countries vote for each other no matter how bad they are. Most countries take part, but Italy can't be arsed (who can blame them!?) and the whole thing is so horrendously bad its worth watching to laugh at everyone.

The UK fails miserably practically every year. The last time we won was like 1997?
