I am with you on all but France....on my god...I cried when I heard them...my CATS cried when they heard them....dogs in the neighbourhood were screaming in agony!
even more people dislike teh french than the english.
what i loved about the french was for the first time they actually seemed to GET eurovision. I recall most years they have deathly dull entries which take themselves too seriously. They actually realised there is no point trying hard and it should be about having fun. The Ukraine was the same, although the french entry to me was actually a lot cleverer,
+ i thought it was a great piece of songwriting in terms of it's catchyness.
Scootch were rubbish for me though. It was aqua without the personality :)
I have a plan for next year though.. We should play those eastern europeans at their own game and do something completely left field and get someone like Billy Bragg to write and perform our entry :)
What did you think of Sweden? I love The Ark - Mr Peacock made me aware of them and sent me loads of their songs. They're like a better version of the scissor sisters.
Ok we were on the same wavelength all night! It was hilarious, I'd maek a comment and then you'd text the same thing to Em! I looooved France they were fantastic!!
she was pretty damn hot - cute wild looking chick in corset playing drums? there's no way that can't be hot. Unfortunately, she sounded awful when she sang.
I managed to miss a whole page of LJ entries for some reason. OMG I am LOVING my new ringtone. I have edited mine to include all the best bits ;) I am going to have to get hold of the French one now and use that for your personal ringtone or something.
