The easy way to spot a key change: the singer who was slightly struggling before is now on the brink of exploding. Were the semi 2 singers in tune more than semi 1?

As a Portuguese i formally send my apologies for yet again sending an absolutely bland entry to the greatest European event ever made. We're simply not good at Eurovision

Ok guys, so I forgot about Eurovision this year until someone mentioned it online in a random place. They said the final is tomorrow. What time in Pacific is it? Also, did I miss any crazy songs that have already been eliminated? It seems that usually the forgettable songs and the crazy songs get eliminated so I want to make sure I didn't miss anything.

The only good crazy ones were in semi 2 and actually made it in, for once. Unfortunately that was only, like, 3 songs. Watch Israel's.

Fallen soldiers: Moldova, Macedonia, Switzerland Honorable mentions: Goons really liked Finland for some reason. Portugal was an entirely average act that could have made it in the other semi. Malta is great if you love thick chicks and pyro with your ballad.

Slovenia going first is a travesty. Latvia's going to win. Hopefully Sweden is too early and people see through Russia.

I love eurovision, but ever since they changed the rules to punishing the slavs for solidtarity, it's been terrible. 2010 and 2011 were really high points, with Apricot Stone, Run away by Olia Tira, Satellite by Lena. 2008 with Divine was really good too. Last year was one of the worst ever. This year Spain has a funny video Georgia is pretty fun Macedonia was okay, Russia was okay, Latvia wasn't so bad. The UK's song was the worst by far, only Israel was on the same awful level. Bad year for Eurovision. Maybe next year.

What's wrong with the UK. Everybody seems to harp on it but their competent Caro Emerald ripoff is way more entertaining than most other garbage in the semis. I hope they will make a liberal use of glo'paint on stage too Tafferling fucked around with this message at 09:42 on May 23, 2015 |

It's the UK, people are always gonna have a go cause we always send poo poo. Having checked out the rehearsal for our entry on Eurovision, I reckon it's going to end up going down as good camp rather than bad camp (for once). We might be able to break the top 15 this year

I really wanted Slovenia to get a better draw. Hopefully they end up finishing in the top 10 somewhere and maybe set the record for the highest Slovenia entry. .I actually really liked their entry and it sucks that they're consigned to the lead-off position I'n legit surprised that Estonia got such a poo poo draw since they've been hyped since forever. Georgia, Latvia and Spain (if they do something fun) are in good positions, though. As much as I want Sweden to not win, at least they have a good entry to challenge Russia. And this should be a much more fun final than last year, especially with the UK aiming for memorable train wreck territory. Sweden was way ahead of the curve on pissing off Russia with the power of Eurovision, and I guess that I'm pretty OK with them hosting it next year unless someone cooler pulls through tomorrow. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FET5VJF8caI

 Final Voting is Now Open Sadly it seems the SQL problems still exist. All I can think of is my coding is bad, and the version of MySQL I'm using is less tolerant of my bullshit and keeps running out of memory when it gets quite busy. But it should come back up a minute or two after it drops it seems, so please be patient and I apologise for my inability to sort this on time. http://crucialweb.net/eurovision Voting is open from now, so if you know who you like there's no problem with putting your votes in early and missing the rush. Otherwise, probably best to make a note of your scores and then you can quickly enter them on the site and get it through, rather than losing your vote. I hope to fix this for next year! (Or forget and have the same problems again...)

I'm crushed that I wont be able to watch all of the finals today since I'm studying for boards all day. I'll get some watching in while I can though. I'm rooting for Belgium and Sweden this year since Moldova let me down and no one sent an awesome Ska act. Hopefully Belgium takes it because Sweden wins too much.

Everyone seems to be playing it as safe as possible because safe acts have a much better chance of doing well, cf. Azerbaijan.
