Eurovision Updates So Far v2

[Inseriousity.]

I liked Malta's song... although I can only remember one line... but it was good all the same!

Very predictable country's went through, it seems BT are also backing the UK's entry this year with special offers of some sort of people who call or something..? Anyway another semifinal to look forward to tomorrow!

BT are offering cheap international phone calls, and they're selling them to people as a special offer to ring people to tell them to vote for the UK.

I got this tweet today:
@HairyEmu Glad you love Jade too! We're campaigning for people to ring friends and family abroad, to help Jade's votes!www.bt.com/eurovision

Desperation from someone at BT to not be one of the 15,000 to lose their job...

eeek! Anyway should be a good semi final, and the oikotimes website has the UK in first place now.

PRIVET*
*hello
I hope you all have your European themed snacks at the ready.

According to the bookies the following will go through:
Ireland
Serbia
Norway
Denmark
Azerbaijan
Greece
Lithuania
Albania
Ukraine
Estonia

This is a trickier semi-final to predict. Other names floating around are Cyprus, Moldova and Hungary. Out of that ten, Ireland and Lithuania are being doubted. Of course, all we can do is wait and see.

What to expect from tonight:
- To be amazed by another fabulous show put on by the Russians
- To be amused by tonight's hosts' bad English (the ones on Saturday WILL be better)
- To be disappointed that this semi-final is nowhere near as good
- To be even more fluent in Russian with the snippets at the end of the postcards (with words such as Welcome, Hi, Music and Round loaf of bread)
- To be glad The Toppers from the Netherlands aren't wearing their original choice of LED covered suits

Croatia

The theory is that Ireland came 10th, but Croatia got the jury vote!

05 Croatia
06 Portugal
07 Iceland
08 Greece
09 Armenia
10 Russia
11 Azerbaijan
12 Bosnia & Herzegovina
13 Moldova
14 Malta
15 Estonia
16 Denmark
17 Germany
18 Turkey
19 Albania
20 Norway
21 Ukraine
22 Romania
23 United Kingdom
24 Finland
25 Spain

If you notice that some songs stand out (Sweden, Bosnia, UK) so people might like the change and vote for them. Songs drawn later usually do better too, so Norway, Ukraine, UK and Spain will benefit from this. The odds are all over the place at the moment, so it's best to see on the day, but with the juries voting, it's anyone's guess who will win!

Finally, we will see jade in action tomorrow
