Hey guys!

I just thought I'd see how many of you fellow Europeans that are going to watch the Eurovision Song Contest tonight (semifinal) and on Saturday (final)? Throughout my entire life I can't remember a year where we didn't watch the contest, so it's something that I watch and look forward to every year. This year it takes place in Athens, Greece since Greece won the contest last year. I'm a bit anxious to know how everything will go about and I hope to see Denmark (who will participate in the final on saturday) finish in the top 10

Anyone's going to watch it as well?

I dunno about tonight. Might watch it on Saturday though.

I noticed that graudally more and more countries are singing in English though. One thing I like to watch the contest for is to hear how other languages sound when sung.
I love listening to Japanese music because of the sounds of the words.

Seems like the show last night did pull off a lot of the favourites going through to the finals although there were at least 2 of my own personal favourites that failed to quality - including my top 3 candidate of Belgium. A pity they didn't get through - but it was quite cool to see how Finland's hard rock song went through. Just look at the image below - they are scary looking

Anyway - looking forward to see the finals tomorrow and hoping to see Denmark in top 10 although it's highly unlikely. Well, one can always be positively surprised by the result, right?

Woah yes unusual pic there. Looks like he's got black wings.

I sincerely doubt the UK will do too great either but yes... we can hope.

Well Finland won. They probably got alot of points for creativity, deservedly so!
