Well further testing has found that she is not so keen on our entry... To put it mildly. But she does seem to quite like similar ones to me apart from that, so I am reassured by that!

All these people playing the songs to their mum. I can't even get mine to watch a 15 minute long video showing the snippets of them all.

Well despite my previous post, I got my mum to listen to snippets of the songs. That's as good as it will get.

Her favourites from the snippets are: :dk::ru::no::at::se::ie::it::be::lv: (coming from a person who claims to hate every eurovision song).

Her opinions on the songs:

:fi: - What the hell is this? It is awful.
:cy: - Boring, leaves no impact at all.
:dk: - this is catchy, i like this.
:md: - Absolutely not, this is terrible.
:nl: - No.
:ru: - This is really good actually, this will do very well.
:hu: - this is ok.
:il: - No, don't like it. This music may be popular in Israel but i doubt it will be in other countries.
:am: - This is just a mess.
:au: - AUSTRALIA?! this is nice.
:ge: - I hate this.
:sm: - nope. Don't like this either.
:me: - same, don't like it.
:by: - Belarus?... Well this will do well...
:de: - No don't like this.
:no: - This will do very well as well. I like it a lot.
:at: - This will do well also, Austria has a good entry.
:ro: - Indifferent to this... Hes about as good at singing English as i am at flying.
:mk: - hmmm... I'm not sure, it's ok.
:pt: - No.
:gr: - These songs are just sounding all the same...
:lt: - No, don't like it. We will probably vote highly though.
:se: - Wow. This will do well, it's the only song standing out so far.
:ie: - I actually quite like this, i like songs i can understand.
:cz: - *shrug* Indifferent again. It just doesn't stand out.
:uk: - No way, please say that this is not our entry. For god sake. This is just utter shite. It sticks out, but for all the wrong reasons.
:pl: - This is nice, but again it just blends in.
:fr: - (after I told her its about WW1) Well it will do well then.
:rs: - These lyrics are just terrible.
:az: - no.
:al: - No, don't like this. I cannot understand her.
:ch: - I remember this from last time. It's ok, stands out a bit more.
:it: - I can understand why this is a favourite. I think this will really well, possibly win.
:be: - I like this. I hope this qualifies.
:lv: - I like this as well.
:ee: - How is this a favourite? It's just so bland. It doesn't stand out at all.
:is: - No, I don't like this.
:es: - This might do well. You can tell they are trying.
:sl: - Don't like this, no.
:mt: - I don't like this either, how is this your number 1?

Mom: Is this your #1?
Me: No; it's a little lower.
Mom: Good.

My mum's: :be::ee::hu::by::au::at::fr::de::uk::es::it::fr::il::lv::se::sl::de:
My dad's: :at::au::fr::de::it::es::uk::md::am::be::fi::ee::rs::ru::ro::ge::me::mt::no::cz::il::az::se::cy::sl:

My dad's only comment after listening to all the songs was: Why does the :by: guy have elf ears?

They really do :), both of them can listen to almost any song, I know that my dad will vote for Finland if they qualify and my mom will probably vote for Belgium.

But did he really liked the finnish song or will it be a sympathy vote?

My mother likes Belgium and Italy. I am surprised that she likes Belgium, because it´s so modern song. But good music is good music.

This weekend, or at least either thursday, friday or saturday, I will play the Eurovision-songs to my family! :D Though I have played quite many to both a friend of my (non-Eurovision-fan) and my boyfriend (which started to like Eurovision again after being with me).

My friend likes :it: the most, but also likes :se: :ru: :ge: and :sl:, She didn't get :lv: at all though. :(

My boyfriend loved :sl:, and also liked :gr: :ge: :be: :de:. Though he really has a hard time with :il:. :lol:
