A 60-odd year old man is definitely going to win the votes of the young people in Europe. I totally agree.
YCNY is going to be a right laugh - they're going to make the contestants do Eurovision style tasks and sing old Eurovision songs. The BBC are realising that they need to make an effort in order to come anywhere near to winning, and that's a good thing.
I think, in the future, they should do a big Swedish-style selection next year. In Sweden, they have the Melodifestivalen (Melody Festival) where 32 performers sing their songs, and there are 4 semifinals, a second chance round and a final.
All the big Swedish stars enter, and it doesn't harm their career, because Swedish Eurovision music is very close to what most Swedish people listen to. Nobody liked that fishy cow who sang for Sweden this year anyway.
Andrew Lloyd Webber has claimed hes not doing any silly song for Eurovision.
Yep! Which is a good thing. We came joint third in 2002, when Jessica Garlik off Pop Idol sang a nice, serious, slow song.
BABEH COME BACK (COME BACK)
IF YOU LUUUUURVE ME
Then along came Jemini...
and that one off Fame Academy...
and Javine!
javine was actually good.
she's a ***** now. wouldn't get our support nvm any other country's.
kiss my swag.
fantasy ride.
She didn't at the time - we came 22nd. That was a bad year for all of the big 4. The bottom 4 was Spain, UK, France and Germany - the 4 countries who put most of the funding into the EBU and the contest.
Javine's song was quite similar to Helena Paparizou who won, but Helena is a better singer, and if it wasn't for Javine not getting into Girls Aloud, they wouldn't be where they are now, and she wouldn't have been known as a homewrecking *****.
The first show of YCNY is tomorrow at 1910 on BBC one. It's a preview show, showing Andrew Lloyd Webber's tour of Europe, and his discussion with Vladamir Putin about Eurovision. You will also see VP tell ALW that he will be voting for the UK, meaning we might be destined for points from Russia.
I think in the last 5 years, our best song was the 2004 one, by James Fox off Fame Academy.
Double post, yes, but Your Country Needs You is on now.
if this dnt get us good points, then UK might aswell give up on eurovision
Andrew Lloyd Webber has a way of making tunes that stick in peoples heads, so that's a start!
Im pleased were taking it seriously now!
If people stick to their word we should pull in quite a few votes!![]()
