ISRAEL 2011 - Dana International - Ding Dong

[MyHeartIsYours]

Dana looks simply stunning... Im sure she'll get into the final and probably top 10!

*omg* her RTE interview is HILARIOUS!!

Here is the full one (dunno if it has been uploaded on here yet)

LOL.
"Looking at Jedward, maybe they can learn some things from me on becoming a woman..." Hahaaa.
DIVA!

[Scooby]

Actually she's hilarious from the very beginning of this interview already, have you watched it yet?

I just watched it. From the moment she sat on the couch I sarted laughing! I love her! I had never watched any of her interviews before I find out that she'll be competing in KDAM and I always thought she's kinda snub but oh my God. How wrong was I?

And I loved this interview. She answered a lot of my questions about her early life! And I love that she talks about it without problem. Many people wouldn't want to talk about it. And I always thought that Dana wouldn't want to talk about being a man because she's a woman now. But then she said that it's ok if someone doesn't see her as a woman but she wants our acceptance and all that. Oh my God! I so ADMIRE her right now. Seriously I truly believe she's a great person with an AMAZING sense of humour! Lucky those people who have her in their lives.

I said I was going to vote for her (thank God I live in Sweden now! ) before I watch this interview. Now I am more than happy to give her my vote. And before someone says that we vote for the song and not for the person just go some pages back and find my post in which I wrote that I gave 12pts to Ding Dong! GO DANA! GO ISRAEL!

I completely agree with everything you said, I don't remember much from when she first represented Israel in 1998 cos I was quite young but I always kinda assumed she would be very closed about that particular topic and prefer not to talk about it, but it's lovely to see her so open, must be so inspiring for people in similar situations as her and very refreshing also.

I wish the UK were voting in that semi final so much, people are gonna have to throw in some votes for the people who can't vote for her yet lol!!!

Vote for Dana Vote 12 in semi final 2

Er..........NO!

The song sucks, her vocals suck, the stageshow sucks. This deserves to languish as a semi-final loser as it is rubbish.

Do NOT vote for Dana. Nul points in the semi final 2

It's very funny to see every year how the week before the ESC a lot of people "land" here to talk about things they have no idea or about the songs having heard only 20 secs of each them.

Thank God we have juries even in semifinals because those are the same people voting.

The Israeli party will take place tonight, and we will celebrate also 63 years of independence and 13 years of our winning back to 98!

I suppose everyone has the right to a view whatever, but I know what you mean. Personally I download them all early, have a really good listen and even watch the live versions in the respective finals to make sure they can actually sing. All the 'Vote Dana' rubbish just because of who she is, is frankly embarrassing.

I also agree that it's good the juries are voting. Rubbish like this year's Israel will get weeded out and not embarrass the final. And generally the better songs get through. It would be a travesty if Dana got through only because of her name because the song is soooo terrible. Long live the juries!!!

^ Rubbish for you, top 3 for me. It's all about taste my friend.

I'm talking about for the whole of europe. You may personally like it and it's in your top 3, but as a song it is poor and has totally no chance of a top 3 finish. If you have watched / listened to rehearsals then it's very out of tune and badly done and may possibly struggle to even make the final. A sad return for Dana, maybe she should have stayed away and the memories would have been of a victory rather than a nowhere finish?

Read the bold parts.

No you're not talking for all Europe and when stating a song is poor it is ALWAYS a subjective opinion.

I do agree though that I think the song will flop.

The song won't flop. After Croatia, Sweden 2010 didn't you study that none can predict?
