Lost Video Island

[meandi]

I don't love this competition because of the high-class music (oh yeah ...NOT!) .
I love this competition because it welcomes you to the best and most interesting freak-show of the year. Seriously.

I don't think there's many LVI'ers living in Europe that watches this show (or do you? ) but I'd like to recommend you to watch this year.
Anyway, I'd like to hear your opinions about it!

Last year, my favourites Lordi won! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uA3VFu3Hsmo
So we're going to Finland this year, nice! Moj mukolat!

Semi-final, May 10th - Final, May 12th.

Here's the links to the best participants this year. Freaks or not.

Germany's contestant is even quite ok this year. We usually have the biggest crap. Don't think he'll get very far though.

The contest needs some "real" music aswell, so go Germany! I think he can do good

Haha, yep. I don't think the UK has too much of a winning chance either.
Maybe these guys would have been better...? Or not? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q18kmM5Uu5o

it doesnt depend on the act, the other countries vote too politically, we know where the points are going before they're given.

At least we can understand it's novelty and don't take it too seriously.

You're so right... *sigh*
Germany, for instance, often gets some points from Austria or the Netherlands as they're our "neighbours" (and in case of Austria, it's also a German speaking country). And Turkey and Poland very often get a lot of points from Germany because we have so many Turkish and Polish people living here. It's not about music all that much, eh?

Lordi, last year's winning act, was a lot of fun to watch though.

BRILLIANT! LOL.

And Germany was really good.

Some of that crap is painful to watch!

[IntoTheVoid]

We always suck! For once I want my country to at least get into the top half of the score board! Jeez...

And I do agree that it is usually done politically, but even if the UK was the most loved country in Europe, we wouldn't get any votes for our entry. Zilch.

That is so true, about the countries voting politically. Though, last year Lordi was the big winner - I think they were a lot of points ahead of nomber two? And they only have like... 4 neighbours.
Anyway, I'm hoping for Russia (they do have the advance when it comes to the political part) and of course my countrys participant, The Ark

...and I love the fact that I'm going to Helsinki 1 week before the ESC

I hate this group, which now represent for Russia ...this "Serebro" just came from no where, I think all Russia was shocked when they "some how" win right to go to Eurovision and represent our country this year...song sucks either , previous year we won second place after Lordi, but this year I'm sure we would't be even in top ten ...absolutely another artist was supposed for going to Eurovision this yaer from Russia (and I'm big fan of him), but some mysterious way (I called this way - Money lol), this girls win a competition ....german guy really look cool though
