Btw, how on earth only the blond girls of the panel gave this song 5 points? I thought it was more like a song for a "manly" taste xrofl3

Seems they love alcohol more ... :D

Anyway, 4 pts for the greek guyzzzzzzzz

SPEECHLESS!!!!

anyone who has been following the esc, knows that this statement is beyond any rational.........!Have u R E A L L Y listened to the song,or just saw 'Greece' and came up with a comment...?xshrug

in any case,35 pts is so low (and unfair scoring imo) but taste is subjective! As for me, 5 POINTS ALL THE WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!! xcheers xcheer

5 points!
At first I kept the grudge on greeks for not picking Thomai, but with time I have acquired a taste for this song and now it's in my top 5.
The lyrics are poetic and profound; the rhythm is energic. It is a beautiful song in a manly way.
Its only drawbacks are the refrain "alcohol is free" that kind of ruins the mood, and the fact that the casual viewer won't understand and appreciate the lyrics themselves.
Come on, folks! This is a song that deserves the upper half of the scoreboard. Go for a 5!

3. Barb E. Dahl - 95
5. Petronella Poetry - 94
6. Emma Magnuson - 93
7. Britni Spirsovic - 92
8. Morenik - 89
9. Scotty Too Hotty - 88
10. Glittery S. Bob - 81

Robert stays ahead and is only 1 point away from cracking the 100 mark. The 4-way battle for last place intensifies as Dark Master closes in on the rest.

Here's our review.

GREECE

Aah! Here we have the Greek entry. Are you ready for some mediterranean dancing, Eau?

And to wear something skimpy like the girl from last year? Spare me, Liz. Women of our age should do whatever they can to avoid stomach flu.

O wait, this can't be the Greek entry, can it? It's a ska song. They're wearing scottish skirts! And they're singing about ... alcohol? Alcohol is free?

I'm not surprised at all. O dear. It's like the Greek are mocking the state of their own economy. What's one of the best ways to forget the problems around yourself? Wash it away with alcohol.

And alcohol is basically free. All you need is water, sugar and time, lots of time.

But what to think about the song? Really, I have no idea.

The song sounds fine to me, but I might have just as well skipped it. It doesn't change my mood, my thoughts or anything.

Exactly. The song is just there. So although we like a good dose of self-sarasm, the song doesn't impress us much. It just leaves us indifferent. It's quite a festive tune yes, but not one that we listen to with pleasure. Still, we value authentic music and the song is not too annoying, so we award this with a meager 2 points.
