Yet more manafactured tripe being thrust upon us. I feel sorry for the "real" musicians and singers, also the public in general.

I've heard this karaoke haveago girl sing live. About as good as a one legged man in an arse kicking contest. I bet the single sounds not even remotely close to the live version.

ugh, an emphysema sufferer could sing better than those english people...

but the single may now become more successful, because english will buy it just so they can say "it sold lots of copies so it can't have sucked that bad, it must be bias against us"

We aren't worried about bias, whether it exists or not.

I think you're seriously overestimating the loyalty of Brits to the UK entry in the Eurovision song contest. [img]graemlins/saywhat.gif[/img]

I was in a crowded pub/club on Saturday night, and the DJ took a break in the music to announce excitedly to the large crowd that the UK entry had failed to get a single point. Everyone cheered enthusiastically, and the rest of the evening was a huge celebration.

Gah, that song is awful. It sounds just like all the other manufactured crap coming out at the moment, only I haven't met any one who actually liked it. My prediction is this 'Jemini' group will last five minutes... hopefully.

My father says that they will go to number one for "A sympathy vote for doing bad in the Eurovision"

[Nevaeh]

That kinda thing always goes to number one... and is forgotten within a few weeks

Hm.. well, I recall that that horrible song from Spain got way too many points. So I doubt the war is the issue here.

I liked that Austrian's song [img]smile.gif[/img]
It was only one that I managed to watch trought without channel surfing...
( and looked T.a.T.u's performation too, but not because that song )

Let's see how it's going next year when all countries can join in contest
and it's 2 days long competition! Who can take it for two days!?!?!

I didn't think the Austrian was the only trout, they were all ugly. There was something fishy about the whole affair. The UK got done like kippers, about the only thing they cod correct.
