Eurovision

[Cecilie]

Okay, so I know what you think... I'm not a Eurovision fanatic or anything, but I'd like to know everybody's all time favorite Eurovision song. Because despite all the awful songs, there have been some good ones. So, what's your favorite?

Mine would have to be Secret Garden's Nocturne. And it's not because I'm Norwegian, I think it's a really beautiful song.  
But also who can forget Waterloo?

Being a Norwegian, I could not avoid hearing about that thing all week... Can't say I have a favourite this year. I liked Lordi when they won for Finland a few years back though

Ahh. Of course. I loved that song as well.

Ketil Stokkan. Haha.

I'm in an alernative metal band myself, so obviously that was a plaster on my intolerance to Eurovision :-P

EDIT: Bosnia, btw, is doing pretty damned good! :-D

roflol at Serbia.

How did the VG-guy put it..?

"Det er når jeg hører sånne låter at jeg blir både mannevond og fordomsfull"

(It's when I hear songs like this one that I get both misanthropic and judgemental)

I subscribe to that point of view. *misanthropic smiley*

EDIT: Ireland pretty much stole You Raise Me Up by that guy with a beard...

The problem is that that song has been covered more than 125 times! But I suppose you are not referring to Westlife who also covered it.

Jan Werner? The guy who died?

[Tank]

Had to be Abba and Waterloo!

Been a couple of good ones, the Albanian entry was reasonably bouncy. It would appear Iceland have sent one of their smaller volcanoes to sing!

He's dead..?  

Yeah, methink it was him.
