WIG

 

[Penelope]

FUCK, TURNING THIS HOT SHIT UP!!!!

 

[COB]

Nightwish found UNDEAD

 

[ButterTart]

This singer is abject. The music is not unpleasant but the vocals absolutely ruin it.

I bet she remembers absolutely nothing of the entire event. She'll be watching tonight and going 'when the FUCK did I do Eurovision?'

 

[Alla]

How the hell did Ireland make it to the final!?

 

[Kala]

This is probably my favourite HOST entry in the past 20 years

 

[ButterTart]

This one is a fucking BEAST.

 

[win_the_game]

LOVE THIS SHIT

 

[VoR]

LOVE THIS EVANESCENCE COSPLAY

 

[Iguana]

Evanescence is dead, long live Evanescence

 

[Tisch]

Quite nice arms

 

[Alla]

Oh I remember this, and I really like it

 

[Soldi]

This is FUCKING BRILLIANT

 

[D5K]

Not exactly a lyrical masterpiece is it?

 

[octophone]

This is actually decent.

 

[Beverley]

She was on posters EVERYWHERE in the city

 

[AlgoAlex]

Okay this is more like it. That hair !

 

[dmlaw]

This, on the other hand, is magnificent.

 

[ButterTart]

It's like a really high-end drag tribute to Elvira.

 

[Penelope]

Honestly Finland need to just fucking do THIS MUCH MORE OFTEN

 

[Apoca]

Ah yes, the uncomfortable Finnish remnants of Evanescence.

So awkward, so uncomfortably angsty.

 

[Beverley]

Not exactly a lyrical masterpiece is it?

JUST DON'T

 

[Tisch]

God I would have lapped up this emo/indie/actually pop rock stuff in 07. Like THE RASMUS but female.

 

[Kala]

I gotta go crazy just to stay sane

WHAT A LYRIC

 

[COB]

Can we not just crown this NOW?

 

[Beverley]

The quiet bit before the guitars come in for the chorus

 

[ButterTart]

Not exactly a lyrical masterpiece is it?

For Eurovision it's DICKENSIAN.

 

[Soldi]

Just got a EUROVISION question in the FACEBOOK QUIZ, GOOD TIMING

 

[Dark Carnival]

This is just ok, I guess

 

[VoR]

How the hell did Ireland make it to the final!?

Because they came top ten in 2006.

 

[D5K]

Btw I still think it’s great. Actually this opening run of songs has been a pleasant surprise (with one exception)

 

[Kala]

IM SHOOK

 

[Beverley]

Just got a EUROVISION question in the FACEBOOK QUIZ, GOOD TIMING

Is LUCY @Lucille off doing one of those too?

 

[Tisch]

How the hell did Ireland make it to the final!?

Read VoR's post a few back

 

[FetchFugly]

It is like a musical theatre Evanescence but actually quite good.

 

[dmlaw]

Finland next year as well. They can host it in Tampere featuring Maya.

 

[Penelope]
