I know, I know it’s here already but the discussion is so long and dates way back so I thought about making another one:

What’s your favourite song from this year’s contest?

My vote has already gone and will go to Ukraine. That Xena type of lady is just brilliant! :)

By the way, were the finalist countries allowed to vote at the semifinals? (Cuz I am sooo sad Finland ended up out of the top-10!)

ally77 said on May 13, 2004 20:12:

Personally I think the other thread is better.. it’s nice to read past comments...

Mod’s do we need to have this one open!

animalkingdom said on May 13, 2004 20:31:

Umm...how do you know which one’s better if the discussion hasn’t even begun?

Sorry if I stepped onto your territory there but aren’t there just millions of threads in the General forum where the same things are discussed over and over and over again? (Even on the same page)

Anyway, this is just basically about your favourite participant in this year’s concert. I mean, the talking is quite wide in your thread, anyway.

ally77 said on May 13, 2004 20:40:

The point is it’s the same topic.. and it’s flippin pointless... if you look at the other topic.. we have been discussing the particpants for days...

Vixzter said on May 13, 2004 20:56:

Eurovision is pointless ;)

Rich-UK said on May 14, 2004 01:25:

1. Albania
2. Sweden
3. Ukraine

Looking forward to Saturday :-) Rich

Santi said on May 14, 2004 09:18:

Albania?????????? :DDDDDDDDDDD

Albania can never win!!!!!!!!

They don’t have a single neighbour that appreciates them! And we all know how Eurovision votes are given, don’t we?

Santi said on May 14, 2004 09:19:

Oh sorry, it’s your fav... Hadn’t read the question well... Anyway, I bet Albania won’t win.

Rich-UK said on May 14, 2004 11:23:

I bet Albania won’t win too ;o) In one poll they were 35th out of 36, but in another they were 7th. The song is really good though, listen out for it! I think that Greece are favourites but I don’t think it’s very good. It would be good if Sweden won (it’s VERY Eurovision) but they’ve had better songs in previous years. I heard the Swedish version and it was much better. Yeah, I know how the voting works, I guess the UK won’t do too well then... best wishes, Rich

Germany?

ally77 said on May 14, 2004 20:32:

I’ll tell you what, all those Swedes vote the UK, and I’ll vote for Sweden, can’t say fairer than that!! ;)

ally77 said on May 15, 2004 07:41:

Todays the day.... ;)

Vixzter said on May 15, 2004 15:42:

if you can get thru on the phone lines LOL

ally77 said on May 15, 2004 17:12:

I always get through! ;)

Katuska said on May 15, 2004 17:27:

Do you know which channels will show the contest tonight - Greek, Italian, Spanish, German...? Sadly I don’t have any Swedish here in Hungary...

ally77 said on May 15, 2004 17:40:

I am guessing most major European TV channels will show it. If you can get UK TV, then BBC1 will show it from 8pm (GMT), and of the commentry will be English by non other than Terry Wogan, don’t let him put you off!

Katuska said on May 15, 2004 17:45:

thanks, but I’m afraid we don’t have that... :-(

Vixzter said on May 15, 2004 20:35:

Vixzter said on May 15, 2004 20:39:

Sweden nearly won it on the costume vote....but apprently not quite ;)

ally77 said on May 15, 2004 20:57:

UK was a good performance best we have done in years!

Belgium was good, but was there something funny about her teeth or was that my eyes!!!

Sweden was good, powerful end to the show! and my votes goes to...

ally77 said on May 15, 2004 20:59:

I’m sorry... but what is all the fuss about the UKRAINE... I thought it was shit... or am I missing something!

ally77 said on May 15, 2004 21:19:

This VOTING is some shite... makes me so mad.... neighbours voting for neighbours... what a pile of absolute tosh!

Vixzter said on May 15, 2004 21:19:

Vixzter said on May 15, 2004 21:30:

Some peolples must really get their hopes up when they hear the songs....only to have them dashed when the voting begins

*LMAO*

ally77 said on May 15, 2004 21:47:

ally77 said on May 15, 2004 22:01:

At least we did not get 0 points... I guess that makes a change!

ally77 said on May 15, 2004 22:03:

Tis over now, I should go to bed... if I can climb the stairs.. ;)

ancikomanci said on May 15, 2004 22:38:

What do you think about the song from Serbia & Montenegro? ? It ended up 2nd.

Jud (moderator) said on May 15, 2004 22:41:

well at least Ukraine wasn’t the typical lalala schlager crap we are used to :P At least they worked it out a bit and the Xena look wasn’t that bad :P~

Amazed that Spain even got votes :P

And go Lena go! Cute sweet Swedish accent she sang with :P Just that Swedish would have surely given her more points!

Small-talker said on May 15, 2004 23:49:

You know something is terribly wrong when a song like the song Bosnia & Herzegovina gets into the Top 10! But, I might be getting it mixed up with Serbia & Montenegro. It was the obviously gay man rubbing up against the very sexy women.

I’m not saying that he shouldn’t have won because he was gay - the song was just so crap!

The show has become far too political! Neighbours for neighbours! It’s become far too idiotic - even more so than it was 10 years ago!

ally77 said on May 16, 2004 07:16:

Did that really happen last night! ;)

Marc said on May 16, 2004 13:24:

Ukraine was excellent! I’m glad it won. Albania was also a very nice surprise.

I liked Sweden and Lena’s performance, but I prefered the swedish version.

Oh and one thing that I simply don’t get is how Serbia & Montenegro ended up on 2nd place. The song was nothing special and very boring. There were much better songs. The song from Bosnia & Herzegovina was total crap as well lol.

France was ok, but I expected more from them. Like always. UK was very good too.

Rich-UK said on May 16, 2004 15:16:

Nice show although many of the vocals were too quiet. The voting seemed even more political / goegraphical than normal.

My favourites were: (1) Albania, (2) Sweden, (3) Ukraine and (4) Poland.

Ukraine was a decent winner, far better than Greece or Turkey! Albania should be pleased with 7th. Rich

Vixzter said on May 16, 2004 19:23:

I liked Ukraine, Sweden and Malta.

girl7twenty7 said on May 17, 2004 11:38:

I’m from Ukraine and I’m VERY HAPPY than my country won!
IMHO Ruslana really was the best :)
