Eurovision Rewatch: Helsinki, 2007 (BST 20:00, 25.04)

[octophone]

This is fucking AWFUL.

 

[AlgoAlex]

Ukraine was cheap but worked.
This the cheapest looking eurovision performance ever?

 

[Dark Carnival]

This is no More Than I Needed To Know, bu then WHAT IS?

 

[ButterTart]

"Finger in your bumhole, sir?"

 

[Penelope]

I'll keep hold of my last shread of dignity thanks.

WHAT last shred?!

BAP BADA BAP BADA, BADADA BAP BADA

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Its ZERO and THIRTEEN OUT OF 10.

Nothing inbetween.

 

[D5K]

Actually to be fair this is much better than I remember!

 

[Raining on Me]

Is this our lowest point of the last 20 years?

There are so many I don't know how you could even tally it

 

[Tisch]

This is the best UK entry this side of the millennium and I'm not apologising for saying it.

I've never seen a moopy member with such a short tenure @ButterTart in here for a banning!

 

[Soldi]

I hope the plane CRASHED

 

[COB]

Can we appreciate that Caroline Scooch was fucking AMAZING on Coach Trip, if nothing else? Russ was also there.

 

[octophone]

I assume this is where Robot Boy got the idea...

 

[AlgoAlex]

Ugh and the AWFUL innuendo

[dmlaw]

That is not proper use of those paddle things. They deserve last year's hosts to land a plane on them.

Yes loved her on that !

 

[Zu]

Not nice to say it but that smarmy nuts-offering maquillaged queen on the right makes me feel right nauseous

God this is even more FUCKING SHIT THAN I REMEMBER!

 

[Beverley]

"Finger in your bumhole, sir?"

Oh I can't at this

[Suomi]

Sorry but I am going to agree with Mrs Suomi here and give the UK a solid 9 out of 10. That was so much FUN and very slickly executed with a lot of delightful nuances.

 

[ButterTart]

TISCH FUN FACT: I think More Than I Needed to Know is one of the most underrated pop songs from that era and play it occasionally.

I feel like @Kalabaliken has a fun story about the brown haired one no?

I quite liked For Sure. Just writing that fills my nostrils with the scent of amyl nitrate.

 

[Alla]

Oh for some reason I get the audio isn't synchronised with the image for a few seconds, and comes back to normal, it was very obvious during this HOT SHIT from Scooch. That's peobably what happened during the Russian performance.

 

[FetchFugly]

Caroline especially came across very well on non-Celebrity Coach Trip. Old face blond guy was less annoying than you would expect too.

Natalie Powers has desperate performance face.

God this is even more FUCKING SHIT THAN I REMEMBER!

It's the "something to SUCK on" line that makes me

 

[AGinAg (37)]

PAEDO RING?

 

[Kala]

They were at a charity gig I was at and at the after party I bought a bottle of wine, and she grabbed it off me and chugged half of it!

Romania

 

[octophone]

Oh, the smugness is stultifying...

 

[Penelope]

God you just know both the men of Scooch are the type who say 'mister' and 'fella' on Grindr

 

[AGinAg (37)]

"Finger in your bumhole, sir?"

 

[VoR]

I DON'T HATE this Romanian one.

 

[Dark Carnival]

What are you doing Romania?

 

[dmlaw]

YOU'VE GOT TO PICK A POCKET OR TWO.

 

[Apoca]

The Romanian entry starts off as a real dud but thankfully the acid kicks in halfway into it.

 

[Penelope]

OMG HE'S SINGING IN MY LANGUAGE BETTER VOTE FOR IT

 

[ButterTart]

Nice of Romania to go the full My Lovely Horse to take the heat off Scooch.

 

[Kala]

God you just know both the men of Scooch are the type who say 'mister' and 'fella' on Grindr

The blonde guy and the blonde girl have been together for YEARS

 

[Alla]

I didn't remember the Spanish verse here, not that I paid any attention to this shit.

 

[octophone]

Why are Madness pretending to be Greek for Romania?
