Eurovision rewatch 4 April (20:00 BST): Moscow 2009

[Dark Carnival]

Oh dear

 

[VoR]

Now this DJ Daz Sampson featuring Kelly Lorenna classic was the definition of 'surplus to requirements'

 

[Penelope]

The only thing this final was really missing is the APOCALYPTIC DRAMA of "Illusion".

But HERE'S FINLAND TO FILL IN FOR IT!

 

[win_the_game]

Love this SLAPPER'S NIGHT OUT of a performance

 

[Beverley]

Poor Waldos People

 

[Lucille]

It’s really TOO MUCH.

 

[D5K]

I loved this at the time. It hasn’t aged well.

This may have been my 12 in Moopyvision 2009

 

[ButterTart]

We are ALL Waldo's People, not least Kelly Llorena there. Fucking love this scally nonsense.

 

[VoR]

I believe this was BAFFLINGLY a jury save from the semis.

 

[Madison]

How on earth did this make the final?

 

[Lucille]

Oh god the dad rap.

 

[Penelope]

[AGinAg (37)]

Ooh some cheap nasty scandi trash pop

 

[Tisch]

Was she a Sugababe by that point?

No later that year, this was her audition

 

[Penelope]

How on earth did this make the final?

TASTE AND DECORUM

 

[AGinAg (37)]

He's nailing the rap part.

 

[Penelope]

THE VOCALS GOING INTO THAT SECOND CHORUS!

 

[Dark Carnival]

This is ridiculous!

 

[dmlaw]

Why didn't the Finnish girls get to perform again after that guy ruined their performance?

 

[Penelope]

He's nailing the rap part.

I don't think he IS!

 

[Soldi]

This is AWFUL

12 POINTS

 

[win_the_game]

I believe this was BAFFLINGLY a jury save from the semis.

This is why we needed the juries!

 

[Lucille]

Never a bad time for this

Were they in rehearsals for human centipede? (The Musical!)

 

[Tisch]

He's nailing the rap part.

YES!

 

[Penelope]

LOVE Lili & Susie on backing vocals

 

[Bumptious]

The dicksie chicks

 

[ButterTart]

This is AWFUL

12 POINTS

Too low!

 

[Suomi]

Weird to think that this Finnish one was a JURY save from the semis

 

[VoR]

How on earth did this make the final?

Actually looking back, most everything that didn't qualify from that semi was PURE CRAP so it sort of makes sense.

They should've just thrown Andorra a bone for shits and giggles.

 

[D5K]

Even so this is still better than most of Finland’s entries.

 

[Beverley]

OMG re the whispered adlib

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Amazing they got Tina Fey to sing.

 

[ButterTart]

He was punching well above his weight with those backing singers.

 

[D5K]

La Teva Decisio was also great.

 

[VoR]

OMG I just remembered what the closer is

 

[Penelope]

That was breathtaking

And SPEAKING OF BREATHTAKING

 

[OutSynk]

Finland was so shittingly amazing.

 

[Apoca]

Poor, harsh looking Soraya.

 

[VoR]

DESPERATION SEEPING FROM EVERY PORE

 

[D5K]

BETTER THAN PASTORA
