The DS Eurovision Thread (Part 8)

But the whole point of Boom Boom Boomerang was that it was a protest song against the banality of modern pop music, and recent ESC entries wasn't it?

Agree the masks were a bit freaky though!

Posting again as I listed Big Pigs song as "Runaway" when it should be "Breakaway". Sorry for the mistake *******! You know who you are ;)
 
It's the least I can do :D

My 12 points would have gone to Charlotte Nilsson, my 10 to the winner, Lena, 8 points would have gone to Ukraine 2004 :D
 
Azerbaijan
Whilst they've sent 3 great entries into the contest and have put time, money and effort into their participation, I think they use Eurovision purely for image reasons. Azerbaijan is a dictatorship and they want to portray a modern European image to people watching across the world and to their citizens they want to show to them that they are a modern democracy purely because they have been accepted to take part in a big international competition. I don't think it's right that a country can spend millions of pounRAB on a TV show whilst a large section of it's country lives in serious poverty.

They also don't enter eurovision in the spirit in which it is inteded. Eurovision is a fun entertainment show but they treat it like a serious competition. Where's the fun?

Thirdly, they also use the competition to try and get one over Armenia.


A lot of what I have said above about Azerbaijan can be applied to Belarus as well.
 
Trying to decide which MF song to nominate after gottago and A.N. Other had gazumped me on my earlier choices I was watching the performances on Youtube and clicked on the following vid out of curiosity never having heard the song before, as MF 2006 was in the days before I could see what the Swedes were up to ......I can't nominate it sadly as it made it to the Final but I have to say I absolutely love it and I never, ever. thought I'd say that about a Rednex song.....
