Re: AUSTRALIA 2015 - Guy Sebastian

Why exactly is it specifically between the UK and Germany to host if Australia wins :?

Why can't they just give it to the runner up :?

Because otherwise it would be FAIR :rolleyes: the EBU doesn't know about fairness anymore btw, so that makes sense.

Re: AUSTRALIA 2015 - Guy Sebastian

So if they win, they'd host it in a European country? I'm kind of losing the point of why they entered.

No.
You are not going to do this.
We have spent hours and millions of minutes discussing the reason of their entry,
and you come now to bring it back again?

Re: AUSTRALIA 2015 - Guy Sebastian

I really hoped for Kylie or maybe Nick Cave. Do we know if any of these "huge" bands or artists were asked? I'm thinking of Kylie, Cave, AC/DC, Olivia Newton-John, The Seekers, Keith Urban, Sia. Too bad Slim Dusty isn't among us anymore, would've been great to hear his voice in Vienna.

I really wanted Nick Cave as well. We know Kylie was asked but she declined the offer. As for the other big names, I don't know. Apparently they had just two weeks to find an artist and so went to major labels and independent ones, asking them if they had artists that would be interested, and whether they had songs that were eligible.

Nick Cave would have been absolutely brilliant but he's someone that was always a pipe dream, kind of like my hopes for John Cale or Marianne Faithfull for the UK:lol:

Oh yes Marianne Faithfull, love the version (with her husky voice) of "As tear goes by". But as I wrote in the UK thread my dream every year is to see Depeche Mode in Eurovision for UK. Won't happen... but oh well... wouldn't mind The Pogues, Pet Shop Boys, The Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, The Sisters of Mercy, Kate Bush, David Bowie either... :)

As for Guy, I'll give him a chance. I've listened to some of his songs, not my cup of tea. Some good songs, some... less good songs.

Re: AUSTRALIA 2015 - Guy Sebastian

I wanted Delta Goodrem or some Top singer cause we ve requested Australia to take part in the final in a direct way for this reason and they bring us a "B class" singer, Im sorry but Im so dissapointed with Australia,anyway,I ll wait the song ;)

For the sake of taking part. Many European broadcasters are not very fond on the idea to host it either, but are taking part just because of the idea.

Umm Guy Sebastian is not a "B class" singer! He is one of Australia's best singers, he is much better than Delta Goodrem; mind you if she had been chosen not one Australian would be happy!!! Now I wan't thrilled with the idea of Guy to begin with but after thinking about it I am reminded, by his voice and his music, that he is a great choice!

Re: AUSTRALIA 2015 - Guy Sebastian

Have to admit, I like Guy as an artist, and I believe it's a pretty strong intent from Australia by sending him. It'll certainly be interesting and different to have them participate. Whether people agree on it or not.

I'm also glad it was not Delta, I dislike her very much! Glad she's not in the Voice Australia anymore :)
