Eurovision Rewatch: Düsseldorf, 2011 (20:00 BST)

[Suomi]

Eric Saade! Jed “is this a singing competition?” Ward, Blue! Lena! (Remixed)

All this and more etc - gather round my angels, we’re going back to basics

 

[ButterTart]

Very astute of you to glamour us by listing the only good songs plus Lena.

 

[Suomi]

Katie Wolf (sp?)

 

[ButterTart]

Katie Wolf (sp?)

Kate E. Wolf forgot how her own song went about five seconds in, so I think in order to include her in the good list we need to mute her performance and all listen to the studio version.

 

[Suomi]

Can’t wait to hear the HOWL in full effect

 

[lolly]

In studio version Wolfi Kat is in my top ten of the decade

Live she's top five

 

[ButterTart]

In studio version Wolfi Kat is in my top ten of the decade

Live she's top five

Wolfi Kat
Wolfi Kat
Why weren’t they training you?
Wolfi Kat
Wolfi Kat
It’s not your fault

 

[Suomi]

Okay we’re pressing PLAY in sixty seconds

 

[lolly]

Already there

 

[Tisch]

I'm HIER!

Just having my dinner

 

[OutSynk]

Ugh

 

[Suomi]

I do wish more winning acts would get to compete against themselves the next year

 

[OutSynk]

Stefan Raab

 

[lolly]

Dreadful

I obviously managed to forget this once. Hope I can pull it off again.

 

[OutSynk]

Is this why @Soldi opted OUT?

 

[Tisch]

This is why I love the early rewatches. Just a quick hello from the presenter and before you know it a lady from Croatia is caterwauling in front of you and has already done 3 costume changes all within the first 5 minutes

 

[Suomi]

I actually quite enjoyed that

 

[Beverley]

Can somebody tell me when the songs start

 

[Beverley]

Oh they've started

 

[ButterTart]

Forgot! I've just watched a tedious bit where they build the arena - am I caught up?

 

[OutSynk]

I actually quite enjoyed that

[Suomi]

Mrs Suomi is not impressed with this 90 second piece of ‘entertainment’

 

[OutSynk]

Oh they've started

Nope no music yet.

 

[Suomi]

Forgot! I've just watched a tedious bit where they build the arena - am I caught up?

that’s where I am!

 

[lolly]

Yeah, actually I think I'm out. Can't face three and a half hours of this, Catty Woof or not.

 

[Tisch]

The voting was open throughout?!

 

[Suomi]

The voting was open throughout?!

they did this in 2010 also

 

[ButterTart]

I'm on Finland now. At times like this, I'm reminded how fucking disgusting Finland's 2011 entry was.

 

[Tisch]

they did this in 2010 also

I never knew this? Why?!

Seems very unfair! Like giving two teams a wordsearch to complete but giving one team and extra task to complete in the first place!

 

[Suomi]

To think this could have been Saara Alto

 

[OutSynk]

This song makes me want to go and throw all my litter on the streets.

 

[Tisch]

What a load of schmaltz from Finland. This is worse than Dmlaw's and indie's speeches from last night.

 

[Suomi]

I never knew this? Why?!

Seems very unfair! Like giving two teams a wordsearch to complete but giving one team and extra task to complete in the first place!

that is a very good analogy, I too am aware of how unfair that particular situation is


Well apparently it doesnt make any difference, and well, the results support that

 

[Tisch]

Planets fucked mate GET OVER IT.

 

[OutSynk]

Why are they cheering

 

[Suomi]

Why are they cheering

because it’s over

 

[Tisch]

Lol at the German postcards being about INDUSTRY

 

[Suomi]

[OutSynk]
