And what do you say about Slovenia? Hasn't she a same song, aproximatively?

nothing in common imo......only connection that both singers were female ,with great voice! other than that, i dont see any similarity...

I understand Bulgarian members! I would also be mad, not because the song "Na Inat" didn't get to the final, but because songs like Moldavian and Romanian (clearly not 'cuz they are fantastic compositions) got through...
It seems to me that Eurovision members have to work harder on the rules to avoid situations like this... But the progress is made, Austria and Switzerland proofs that ;)

In 2008 Deep Zone were replaced by latvian pirates, after that in 2009 Illusion was good song, but totally runied by the vocal perfomance and the choreography and deserved it's bottom place. Year later Miro was much, much better, but the result was the same like 2009 (WTF?!?). This year we had catchy song and singer with good voice and very strong performance and again nothing. In 2006 we had powerfull ethno ballad (in english) and again in the bottom. In our debut (2005) we sent quite boring song (maybe), but we see that songs like that (and even more boring) can qualfy. I still don't know how it happened in 2007 with Water, but maybe this was like to hit the big jackpot. I don't know if we send something like Water, it will work again. The last option may be chalga singer, but i'm not sure if we will participate again in the contest. This year BNT was about to withdraw, but there was big public reaction and they changed in the last minute their plans. But now the disappoitment here is enormous. Maybe we have to send Madonna or Justin Bieber to qualify :D

As comedians, maybe they are good, I don't care. But this is Eurovision here!

Well, if everyone would take Eurovision so seriously it would become a boring competition, don't you think? I mean, hearing the same cheesy songs for almost two hours is pretty tiring. Besides, Jedward are the only entertaining act this year who got through to the finals, so what's the big deal like? It's not like Lordi in 2006 were the perfect standard of Eurovision... :-)

By the way, is Amaury gay? Because in a Greek tv channel they said that he's running after Loucas for days! I don't know if he has bad intentions! If yes, kidnap him as well, and let him be with Stereo Mike!

I am satisfied about results. But I still feel sorry for the Diva.. You know who I am talking about Dana International. She deserved to make it to the final for sure… I won’t forget this performance, she used the stage in a good way, and I had fun! I am also so happy for Estonia, she was the best of SF2 for sure. She did a great work. And, I am so happy for Jedward. Someone was saying, it’s impossible Jedward to qualify, and now they did it! I’m so happy for them as they were in my TOP3 in SF2. And, Sweden I was like OMG, where is Sweden. But, then Eric got the last spot. And I felt so happy. But, as I said this final would be great with Dana.. I’d feel happier with her..

8/10 of my predictions came true:

BiH
Austria
Ukraine

Cyprus
Sweden
Israel
Slovenia
Estonia
Denmark
Ireland


and 6/10 of my TOP 10 reached the final:

Austria
Belarus
Bulgaria
Denmark
Estonia
Ireland

Israel
Slovakia
Slovenia
Sweden


So, I did 6/10 and 8/10 for both SEMI 1 & 2. In total, it’s 16/20 of my predictions came true, and 12/20 of my TOP 20 reached the final. :p

See you in FINAL! I’m very excited for it.. Btw, I must say. I’m unhappy for draws a bit.. My favourites in a row 5 - 6 -7 - 8… I hope this issue won’t effect their success.. =( That’s actually good in a way. I’ll listen all my favourites in a row, and it’ll be such a great thing. =)

:shock: I dunno. What's wrong with these people? Leave Loucas alone! Yes I'm talking to you Maja. I know "you" are the one who is hitting on him :evil:

Actually, it was Loucas that was approaching her, according to the rumors! But I wouldn't be surprised if it's true because he did the same in the X Factor with the hottest girl in that talent show!

@FoFo Woo she's beautiful, looks like Paula :)

Well, Lucian and I need to do something for that Maja & Loucas thing. It's getting serious... Hmm...

And Amaury, I have nothing to say to you. Shame on you! You're my favourite and I'll vote for you, so you'd better if you keep your hands off ma man duuude!

2012 will be the year of the Disney ballads, because that's what the juries want.

This is what was said about the 2006 contest - that a ballad was going to win because the fans wanted it - and that notion was completely smashed.

Agree!

I mean what's up with these music snobs? (ironically liking the most kitschy there is themselves: DISNEY BALLADS)...

I mean should everything be dead serious like a funeral? Where's the part in where music and Eurovision should be about fun and entertainment? Did that idea get lost along the way or something?
