I hope they will come back because in 2007 they were robbed!

In 2007 they got what they deserved.
Please, come back with something better. Though they can send Anonymous again, it seems ppl liked them... with a different song.

In 2007 they would have qualified with the actual semifinals system ;)

how do you know? ;)

Because with the pre-qualifiers system, some bad songs were directly in the final. So with the actual system, they wouldn't have qualified and the "just missing out" countries, like Andorra would have qualified.

Of course I can't be 100 % sure, but oh well I think it's logical ;)

I didn't mean subjective crap. We all have opinions :lol:
I was talking about the juries.
It's impossible to say 4sure... they could have Soraya-effect, btw.

It depends on who was in the semi-final with them. ;)
or it depends of someone who would be in the jury )))

Re: ANDORRA - Andorra 2011

I wasn't even talking about the juries. It was just because of the two semifinals system.

In 2007: 28 countries - 10 qualifiers
With the new system - max. 19 countries/semi - 10 qualifiers

It's clear it's much more easy, isn't it? :ugeek:

well, 2 more countries would qualify but on the other hand 18 (9+9) wouldn't qualify just like then. So they had to pray for a low amount of participants :lol: or for participating in the weakest semi or for much better Andorran entries (but again it's all subjective) :cool:

I think we won't see Andorra next year. Spanish economy is in coma and to tell the truth this country is nothing more than a part of Spain. Even Spanish participation is in danger. Thank God the FORTA (regional channels) wants to join EBU, although our entry would be xpuke

Don't worry about Spain. It's true that we're in coma (and let's hope for the future and not to end up like Greece, but that's offtopic :geek: ...), but TVE gets an important part of its financing from a tax to the private channels, since TVE doesn't have advertising anymore.

And FORTA doesn't include every Spanish region, so I don't think FORTA could represent Spain + they are also public televisions anyway (some of them have even more deficit than TVE) + they are about 14 televisions, so I don't think all of them agreed on this :lol:

And about Andorra (this was the Andorran thread, wasn't it :lol: ), it's undenieable that Andorra doesn't mean a different state in terms of culture, but they are 100 % independent in fact. Trust me, we all would kill for being Andorrans and not Spaniards at this moment :lol:

Re: ANDORRA - Andorra 2011

I want them back, because I have yet to hear something pretty good from them. Sorry, but I haven't been fond of the Andorran entries and I expected their outcome in each year. :|
I found their 2008 to be good, but not enough. Same goes for their 2007 entry. Their 2004 entry was decent, but the others were rather horrible. :? :| I still want them back! :)
