It's just fantastic! The usual mix of utter rubbish, insanity and quite good songs. Awesome!

I know! Are you watching? Because I'm so taken with the angels turning the man in black to white! They sucked out his evil with their purity! How can you not love that!?

I'm totally watching!

That was totally a porny entry, all right! They even got to climax at the end! On their knees and everything!

YES!

I've just read a post where someone was slashing them, and I'm so not surprised.

Let's see who we voted for. Fail, UK! Fail!

You know, one of the things I love most about Eurovision, is how annoyed Sir Terry gets about the 'political' voting, even though it happens every single year! Bless him!

Terry makes it for me. He's awesome.

And thank goodness, we've got some more points.

I maintain, as I do every year, that what Eurovision really needs is to be co-hosted by TW and Lance. Because Lance would be SO AWESOME.

Drinking makes things much better! It makes the dancing pirates extra funny and the ice skater make sense. Maybe *g*

I'm not sure anything will be enough to make the ice skater make sense.

The ice skating could represent the cutting edge of man pain! The blades sharp against the white purity of the ice, which of course represents the cutting angst against man-in-white, who emotes like crazy all the while!

Or more likely. You're so right and it makes no sense at all!

You're so right! No wonder they won when they included dancing on ice!

Denmark was catchy, y/y?

I agree! If I could remember it I'd be tapping my feet!

I quite liked Denmark's song. :)

I think it was probably the most credible song of the night. I can imagine that charting in the UK.

Unrelated to the comment. One of my friends is reading a story featuring BSB, her first Boys fic, and was wondering if there was a primer anywhere about them. I couldn't think of one but you know the fandom better than I do. So, do you know if one exists?

Ooh! Well, I know [livejournal.com profile] trumpeterofdoom started on one, but she only managed to finish group and AJ. Those are here (http://trumpeterofdoom.livejournal.com/tag/primers). I don't know if there's a specific primer other than the [livejournal.com profile] crack_van one (http://community.livejournal.com/crack_van/396646.html), and that one's getting pretty outdated, but I wrote some brief outlines of all the guys for Lucy here (http://bubbleforest.livejournal.com/147890.html?thread=1806002#t1806002) if that helps?

You should join in with the mass watching. It's fun!

I watch for pure entertainment value but the voting really pisses me off. I'm sad to hear Terry's considering quitting because of it.

Russian dude is apparently the Russian Timberlake. And that ice skater is an olympic champion, don't you know. Which still doesn't quite explain why he was there but whatever.

The voting is ridiculous. While I love watching the acts knowing how people are going to vote makes the whole competition thing a joke.

I didn't know that, but the radio station was going on how Timberland produced the song, so I'm not surprised at all.

[identity profile] digital-diva.livejournal.com 2008-05-25 11:08 am (UTC)(link)
Which is why I was hoping Greece would win it, so maybe there'd be an end to all the political voting but nope, same old!

Yep, Timbaland produced the song. Apparently this guy has an English album out and has even done a song with Nelly Furtado. *shrug* Still don't like him ;-)
