re:Ireland are there actually many allies in the first semi? when I look at the list I'm not so certain where they pick up votes despite their heavy pre contest promotion


Historically on average a definite nope. The argument may be their performance last year, their chart success and touring may earn them more this year

I just have a feeling that their highpoint was last year - and there were more friendly western - 'irony loving' nations in it. And this year's song and presentation is just not as catchy (I know people generally think its a better song but is it a better Jedwood one?)

does appearing twice in a row really go down that well - my feeling is that there is less impact although Lena did alright last year

Can't answer that with any certainty tbf I'd just be guessing. On the qualification thread and even before this dress rehearsal I'd advised people to be very careful about Irelands qualification price.

It's a bit hard to answer the last point.  Traditionally acts who did ok at ESC the first time they entered, have tended to do ok another time, but there are not that many instances where it has been in consecutive years.  There are a few that have failed badly a 2nd time, but these are normally with artists with a much lower profile, and who are only maybe remembered by true fans of the contest.

Unlike Greece.

Not sure showing her knickers is a vote winner. Apart from on here.

yes slightly scared by the Romanian dress - not a vote winner

Cheap and trashy. If the juries give that any points then they need shooting.
By:

When: 21 May 12 16:30
I think the problem with Greece is that the oh oh oh uh oh bit is her weakest vocal and its so central to the song

different jury tastes in different countries (except all seem to like Italian jazz)

Latvia sounds the best so far. In tune and no scary hairy men

Pity the song is rather dull...and oh gawd she's started shouting now.

Just going back. A very muted response for Greece I thought

Latvia is fine if only the start and the lyrics weren't so abysmal. The beutiful song chorus is quite catchy

Not sure what the hell she's wearing tho. Why not stick to the simple black dress from the video

Agreed with the short skirts and panties lads. For here, not for ESC vote winning. Elena might be doing that for the Press core lol Not the real rehearsals. Put them on, not get them off!

I often laugh when things are described as marmite in our many discussions on here. For once with Albania I can't disagree. Love it or hate it song I thnik
