Is there anyone here who is going to watch it today? A few years ago there was a guy in the Band that always hosted a Eurovision Song Contest thread but he is not here now. 

 

I will watch it until I fall asleep. :D  I have not seen any of the performances except for Sweden´s. I think Måns Zelmerlöw will go far. Top 5 at least. The song is okay, not super great, but the performance is great. He is so cute and charming. 

 

Do you have any favourites? 

 

 

 

I'll probably at least half vote....

 

Sweden's song is good this year. Can't say I've listened enough to the rest of them to have any favorites. Doubt that Norway has a chance, but Europe has proved me wrong before...

 

 

Oh! I did kinda like Australia's song.

Is Australia competing? 

Yeah! It's a special year, so Australia is allowed to compete, because apparently they are crazy about the ESC!

Aha. Very strange, but it will be fun to watch. 

 

 

My first challenge is to stay awake until it starts. lol 

Lol that bad, huh?

No, just tired. It turns out I'm going to see it with my family so they will have to keep me awake. :D

i won't be watching... and Belgium is doomed to fail lol

That guy was me! Well, I am just seeing what DM has to offer, which explains why I am around at the moment.

 

Unfortunately, I am not a fan of Sweden's song. Clever choreography but a bland song.

 

Serbia and Russia are my 2 favourites. I don't think it is a great line up this year...too many songs sounding the same.

Uk was... interesting...

 

I liked Sweden...

 

 

Serbia and Russia are very politically correct, but I guess that can work...

 

Watching while chatting on skype with other people watching now

But the UK won't win unfortunately. I did feel it was missing something...it could have been that upbeat track for the contest, but it wasn't.

Yes...but they are also good songs with good performances to boot.

You should come join the commentary party on skype as well Corki!

 

 

Australia did great!

Got my Skype set up - my username is valhalla_glory if you want to add me.

 

And Greece - a very close copy of Conchita's song from last year.

Hi Corki! Great to see you!

 

I like Sweden. :) It's not the best song but Måns is great (and yummy).

 

Norway was really good.

Maybe I should drop by every May to host the DM Eurovision party!

Absolutely! I miss your threads.

I liked Latvia.

 

Chae - Belgium was good.

 

England not so much.

Belgium wasn't bad... I just don't think it's the right audience...

I agree.

This is so boring.

Time to be proved totally wrong, but my guess of the challengers and dark horses are as follows:

 

- Serbia, Russia, and Sweden will be the main challengers

- Georgia, Latvia, Spain and Italy are my dark horses

I think Australia will get a lot of votes too.

What does Europe see in the Swedish song??

Woohoo!
