i think its amazing! well, but i dont mean raab's singing but the whole opening act
really cool idea!
I'll probably send sms tonight for
Serbia
Hungary
Bosnia & H.
Moldova (hehe:twisted:, yeah, naughty me!)
France
UK (if they can pull it off)
Switzerland
Finland
Ireland
...depending on the actual performances, of course.
But I think, following entries will do very well tonight: Denmark, Azerbaijan, UK, Russia, Romania, Estonia, Sweden, France, Austria, Georgia, Bosnia & H.
And I hope, Germany will get a decent result, too. (Lena actually managed to surprise me, positively)
I'm really exited now, can't wait until tonight!

Good Afternoon everyone. He we go, the first rehearsal of the Grand Final. I'll be blogging from the screens rather than from in the arena. Here's hoping that all the screens in the press centre on on the right channel today!
First up will be Finland. But beforehand, lets see what the opening is like.
Ah, no traditonal travelogue of Germany to start. Thats a pity
What is it with the Germans and their inability to start anything on time? National stereotypes are being binned here!
This is beyond a joke now. We have seen the opening caption about 4 times now! Its the same as the one for the semifinal
And still we wait, and wait and wait. Anyone know a game we can play to fill the time?
Oh, there is some activity on screen now. I can even see our presenters. Not that they are saying anything mind?
Oh, I'm liking Judith's frock for the final. Very dramatic in a silvery way.
And a 2.30pm start time drifts onwards to 3pm.
And it all starts AGAIN!!
Original opening line ...."Hello Europe!". We've never heard that line before have we!

My prediction for LA GRANDE FINALE ESC 2011:
1.
Estonia: winner
I believe this song has so much clout in Europe that
it won't fail, even if not sung perfectly
2. Bosnia: runner-up: the whole Balkan & former-Yugoslavian fugees all over Europe will be voting for this one en grande masse and multiple, multiple times (whether they actually like the song or not, comme toujours )
3. Azerbaijan (Nikki's vocals will prove too shaky after Austria's performance, not enough to take the title, maybe some herbal tranquilizer will do her good??)
4. France (mostly older, 35+ y.o. will vote for this one, I think it will not attract enough younger votes)
5. Hungary: disco-diva without the dance, just the singing is soooo difficult
6. United Kingdom (4 chemically pumped up male Barbies, plenty of takers everywhere)
7. Germany (too much antipathy for 'another year of Lena')
8. Denmark (a nice song for 18 and 19 y.o. who find out they want to 'change the world', repeat the chorus just a thousand more times and they'll believe they actually can)
9. Sweden (wrap crap in a nice package and you'll always find plenty of voters who were probably just born a few month/weeks/days ago :twisted
10. Austria: congrats Austria, your first top ten since ....ages.
(and 11. Slovenia)
My personal favorites are/were:
1. The Netherlands: OUT :shock:
2. Bulgaria: OUT :shock:
3. Latvia: OUT
4. Austria
5. Azerbaijan
6. Slovenia
7. Estonia
I tend to like well-written, melodic songs with rich accords and REAL instruments. I don't care much for the light show around it
I wouldn't mind AT ALL if Austria (a REAL song with excellent vocals) (or Slovenia) took the crown tonight......But it would be totally hilarious if Ireland or (even worse) Greece won. Let's see how they're going to pay for it next year :twisted:

Because they had these giant funny hats and they were running around on the stage (one person even on a unicycle).
Oh wait...what? The ESC is about MUSIC?? So the guys from Moldova successfully distracted the audience from their actual SONG by doing hilarious things? Cool.
Ok, that's one way to be successful.
Ruslana will announce our votes from the Independence Square
There will be the final of Maidan's show (one of the most rating shows here) so they decided to combine both events.
Btw, the show was isnpired by Oslo interval act so we can see a "little" dance before our votes. Near 100 000 people are expected to visit the show.

I must disappoint you - we will give 12 to their folky SONG
Other qualifiers like Austria and Lithuania didn't have a show at all but who cares if it's only about laying crap at the entries (countries?
) which you hate.Deleted member 5361

That' s fine with me. I like the fact that everyone here is free to express his/her opinion and that we respect each other.

I think you will give 12 to Russia...

I would love Austria to win, so I could visit the next years Eurovision in Vienna. Other than that, I really like:
Bosnia and Herzegovina
Romania
Serbia
Slovenia
Germany
I don`t like Sweden and Ireland, because it is obvious that they don't want to get votes for their great song/voice...
Too bad that Nadine's song sucks, but she wrote it, so bad for her.
