holy crap, I look away for one second and the piano sprouted a body! (Although I should have suspected something, as we had only seen 5 people thus far)

Russia: He still looks white trash and he still has crazy face and leg movements. I really like the song but I can't focus when he's out of control like that.

And they still havent shut up! Elena's singing for fuck's sake!
WOO! I'm liking it much more than last time. Might as well skip the rest of the show. Surprise qualifier to surprise winner.

So may I please ask a dumb first-time-watching-Eurovision question?
Maria and Sakis open the show... and from what I gather they are also at the end when they tally up the televotes. Do they serve any other purpose besides this?

I still don't get how FYROM got in but Anzej didn't. Oh well.

PS I know no one really likes this Macedonia song (read a lot of people trashing on it) and it is a bad reggaeton knock off, but for some reason I find it unbelievably catchy....

FYROM - I said this in the semi PUT SOME BLOODY CLOTHES ON WOMAN. She's so pretty but its a shame she looks like she's about to go and work in Balsall Heath tonight.

Macedonia: A little better than the semi performance. There is still much butt-shaking at the camera for maximum points.

They drag the votes out at the end, and do random annoying things, one year (denmark i think) the two hosts did the whole night in Rhyming couplets. - got very annoying by the end.

"Dance with me, na na nee, na na ni" - it's incredibly catchy.
I like this Romanian entry too, but not as much as last year's with Ruby Wax and her 'sparks machines'!

Romania. Not bad. Did the dancer think to themselves 'Fuck, everyone's in white' and just got changed back into their going home clothes?

No Drums this year....
Last year 90% of people had drums.
Romania - Very catchy.

Romania: I'm not sure about the suit. I like the lights - they say "this is a dance song" Everything is fantastic except Mihai's lack of dancing. TOOOOOR-NEEEE-ROOOOOO!

FYROM will win. Just because it's a bit like Turkey 2003. I may even vote

Well, we're halfway there...I think there have been three good ones (Germany, Macedonia, and Romania) thus far.....others?

Romania was pretty damn good! Made me dance anyway. The guy has a nice pop voice.

As much as I dislike Carola, I'd prefer her to win over Bosnia and Herzegovina. It's bland and boring.

I LOVE FYRoM!
Norway, FYRoM and Germany are the best so far. Fucking B&H is on now. I may die of boredom. Norway is far nicer.

I downloaded the Bosnian mp3 but binned it half-way through with screams of terror, but it sounds quite fine here. Not a winner though, I can't see mediocre ballads win Eurovision in the near future. Maybe when dance routines will be banned, they're in with a chance again : P
