there are millions of fanatical muslims out there...that's what your missing. |

when it breezes through the semis it will be half the price it is now and you may wish you'd followed me in.
|
|
By:
I think it's expected to get through easily enough so can't see the price dipping too much unless a late draw helps it further.

What? And all those fanatical Muslims out there are going to vote for a Turkish Jew? Seriously...

By:
Oh, I forgot those fanatical Muslims are probably to ignorant to realize that they are voting for a Jew... But they're high-tech, equipped with mobile phones ready to launch the next virtual Jihad by hijacking Eurovision? It's a secret undercover project. Bring Eurovision to Turkey then secretly move it to Kabul and make all of the ladies wear a Burqa so that they appear as human penguins... Hasta la victoria siempre!!!
Dude, what have you been smoking or drinking? |

excuse my ignorance...i did not know he was jewish...the song still sucks thou

Ah, ok. No worries, Milan...
I personally think that the EBU may be a bit loathe to move Eurovision to another Turkic country right after Azerbaijan. Just a hunch there. I also don't see the song as a winner - we agree on that. I'd rate the chances of it winning as less than 1%. |

The Swedish over-produced Scando-pop post-trance junk looks like a gypsy performing a witchcraft ritual to me.
This is line of the year for me, so far! Could be the one to take johnnyrant's well earned 'trophy' for his great line describing Maja Keuc last year! |

Well minor flaw is that Azerbaijan weren't over 60's last year. I started athread for them to win at least a month beforehand when they were 16/1 By now I think probably 12's
Just to clarify the Azer price - I remember the day I heard it for the first time and I had a small punt at 25 that very day, which I'm guessing was mid-March as Azer was one of the last songs to be revealed. Don't think it ever went higher than 25. For the record Romania finished 3rd in 2010 and was 60 on the day and Turkey finished 2nd having been 50 ish during the week. |

Rob and Dan's selections up for semi 1. Unsurprisingly, at least for me, laying Cyprus is on both lists
|

By:
and both think the win is between Romania and Denmark...

No mention of Moldova pulling off a shock win? ;)

![]() If that qualifies I'll give them both a big pat on the back. |

By:
I wonder if they have had a secret confab - very similar indeed.

By:
at least we agree to disagree on just about everything this year

Albania after the Moldovan one

I am beginning to think Moldova could seriously challenge for top 3 tonight. It's probably presents better value for a top 3 finish than Romania for the win at the moment...
|
|
By:
I love Moldova too (although Romania even more so)
However other opinions are out there - from oikotimes: MOLDOVA – PASHA PARFENY ESTIMATION: NOT IN THE FINAL In another Eurovision edition this might have some chances for the final as Pasha is giving a truly warm performance and the camera work is brilliant. But there is no votes for him besides a possible 12 pts from Romania. Not appealing enough for the viewers to send him to the final, unfortunately! |
|
By:
Well I think it's a qualification lock.

Re: Moldova again - do you notice the change in clothing from the second rehearsal to the jury performance - to wear knickers or not ;-) dunno which is more risque but I prefer the second rehearsal...
|

By:
|
|
By:
yes I agree
|
|
By:
well Spain as well ofc I mentioned these 2 because histroically they can be relied on by Moldova for some decent points, but then you knew that

Just a question re:Denmark - do people actually think much of this song? A lot of people still see it as top three material or winner but I feel reluctant to accept this. The argument goes that its some professional and bland and that juries will like it but I see a woman with a silly hat surrounded by some fairly low energy performers lounging around with the exception of a bassist in another slight strange costume - meanwhile the screen behind shows wallpaper pictures. The song no longer stands out much compared with some of the others in the competition too. Also I don't think its as catchy as some previous years.

By:
We seem to be agreeing a fair amount Sekt10ned, some will tell you that's a very bad thing. I liked last years, this year, apart from the very first listen I find boring and non-descript. Very MOR easily forgotten.
A couple of good judges I respect think otherwise however. I think it may do well tonight just because of draw and what its up against. The final - it will disappear well down the right hand column ![]() |

By:
It seems so Bexley
![]() if the odds had remained lower in the top three market I would have opposed them but I think I'd better stay clear. I don't think I'm very good at qualifying markets although I do sometimes oppose in the hope that they keep back from announcing some of the more obvious winners until the end causing their price to go up - Denmark 2010 being a in point, it was a bit ropey vocally too. |
|
By:
Well they seem to be making a big thing of the last envelope this year - it will be an actual envelope apparently a bit like a golden ticket. With that in mind i'd imagine they may well hold a big name back just to add to the suspense. Pure specualtion though onmy behalf
|

By:
I'd keep Greece and Cyprus waiting for envelope 10. I'd like that to happen, rather a lot in fact
