Loreen gets a lot of attention from the danish journalists, because she is the favourite, but Soluna obviously still gets the most, so what's the problem. Of course they are interested in Loreen. They have been obsessed with her and Tooji simply because they are from our neighbor countries -.-

And about the fling-thing... xrofl3 How can anyone even get that thought? OPEN YOUR EYES! Need i say more? :lol:

That's exactly what is done. There have simply been too many of these Loreen-Tooji friends pictures xshrugxliarxhand. Most of them published without comments. What are we supposed to think xthinkxwhistle:mrgreen::lol:?

I'm trying to like her and her song, but I can't... Why? And I see that the most of you, you're saying that she's your winner this year! I'm sorry Sweden but I like more and I support Nina and Italy, but anyway good luck to Sweden!

I can't wait for the moment, when the voting is over, and she will go on stage to be declared as winner, and there will be crying and singing, and she will fall to her knees, and there will be snow, and Europe will be in Euphoriaxheart

I'm just dreaming a bit :lol:
Good night everyone xbunny

^ I was told that the snow didn't work! Does anybody have a link of a blog or something that comments the rehearsals?

SWEDEN - everything is as good as yesterday. The cameras work better with each run. At the climax, after Loreen "we're reaching for ..." silent and produces coughing sound. I think falling snow hit in the mouth? But after that, she was finishing well.

Thanks for the links guys. Yeah I don't trust Keith either. He really says the worst for the entries he doesn't like even if it's not true.

I've tried really hard to like this song. Usually I love all the favorites, year after year, but I don't know exactly what for, I can't fall in love with this one. The thing is, she's beautiful, she has a strong voice, she dances and sings at the same time and all works well, the performance is great... but I don't like it. Maybe it's time for me to go to the therapist or something :lol:

Nevertheless, I guess one whole continent can't be wrong. So, as they say, "it's not you, it's me". Whatever happens tomorrow, Loreen has in fact achieved a great victory and that's amazing :D congratulations!

I just hate the fact that Loreen seems to get more media coverage from the Danish press than our own Soluna. It's ridicilous :lol:
Well, there's really not much to say about Soluna. They can't keep recycling the same articles over and over again.

About the fling-thing; maybe I've missed something but isn't Tooji gay?
Please don't be true. Seriously, we don't want him.

They said in the Greek TV that using slow motion in ESC is forbidden, and that Cyprus asked slow motion in 2007 but it was denied by EBU because they said it was forbidden. They said that Sweden is threatened with disqualification! What are they talking about? :eek:
It's possible that it's forbidden for prolonged periods, but not as singular effects. The slow motion is only for the final 2 seconds as a finishing touch.

There's still some flaws vocal-wise, but I think that's mostly due to the sub-par audio equipment. This performance was near flawless. If she performs that well tonight (because it's 00:41 GMT+1 time), Sweden's gonna win for sure. Go Loreen! Bring the contest back to Sweden! We need a major world event to test out our new stadium!

Guys, are you really sure that was a snowflake and not something else?
What, an assassination attempt by the Azeri regime due to her outspoken criticism of the regime?

Listening to the jury rehearsal tonight only two artists delivered 100% vocals,Italy and Macedonia.Loreen im afraid will of been marked down badly for what happened.The juries mark on what they see/hear and dont take any excuses into consideration.
The fact is Italy will of won the jury vote by miles,Macedonia probably 2nd and Serbia 3rd.Sweden probably didnt even score top 6 with the juries.Even with a large televote Sweden will struggle to even get top 4 from here.
Loreen has fluffed every rehearsal,sad but true and she fluffed the most important tonight even more.
Win is all over for Loreen im afraid.

The juries are not instructed to look at vocal ability first and foremost. They are to look at song quality first and foremost and then overall performance (i.e. staging). Jedward were 6th with the juries last year, while the televoters only placed them 10th. Yes, somehow, the juries placed Jedward higher than the televoters last year. Also, Sweden also came within striking distance of 1st place and the jury favourite despite getting 150+ less jury points than Italy last year, placing merely 9th with the juries.

Also, I'm pretty sure the juries are instructed to give leniency to accidents practically outside of the performers' control. A stray flake of fake snow making it into her mouth isn't really her fault and shouldn't count too much against her.
