Wikipedia suggests that this lot won the national selection entirely based on the votes of the Montengrin juries and then did the same thing in 2006, causing the Serbian broadcaster to pull out of the contest.

 

[AlgoAlex]

It's Las Ketchup!

THREE YEARS later ? I mean why not jump on that bandwagon in 2003 ?

 

[Tisch]

It's definitely the happiest Eurovision performance of all time. I'm just saying, if someone had thought to show it to Idi Amin then Uganda would have been much better off.

Uganda for Eurovision 2021!

 

[lolly]

Oh hang, that's the dead one isn't it?

 

[Suomi]

The year after this the Serbian-Montenegro boy and won their national final again but got booed (Because the Montenegro jury gave the Serbian fronted song all 0), and it caused the disintegration of the country

 

[dmlaw]

This is clearly not rehearsed and she is just caught up in her fascinating book.

 

[win_the_game]

I HAVE ONLY ONE VOLUME LEVEL - SCREAMING!!!

 

[lolly]

God, there's a face you want to kick before he even starts singing

 

[ButterTart]

I know someone who still says 'GGGreat BOOOK' in honour of that hilarious skit.

 

[dmlaw]

Fuck off, Denmark. Piss break.

HOW GAY

 

[win_the_game]

So much STRAIGHT WANK clogging up the final this year.

Aren't the semi final voters (i.e. THE GAYS) meant to cockblock this stuff from qualifying.

 

[ButterTart]

Denmark have a terrible habit of sending whiny, insipid male songs. Even Rufus Hound on backing vox isn't rescuing this from being absolute fucking shit.

 

[Lucille]

I topped up my tea during that.

 

[dmlaw]

I'd suggest that it can only get better from here, but the next two songs are both by men named Martin, so I'm not so sure.

 

[Soldi]

I thought 2005 was supposed to be a GOOD year? Other than Las Ketchup Senior and Madame Shiri it’s been a BIT SHIT.

 

[ButterTart]

The music in this postcard is better than the last few songs.

 

[Soldi]

I topped up my tea during that.

[insert ButterTart Lucille hole entry whatever joke here]

Is that VELVET on backing vox? She'd sing any old shite for a meal ticket.

 

[ButterTart]

@Suomi please apologise and pay reparations on behalf of your country for this atrocity. Anybody who claims Sweden has never committed a war crime needs to be pointed in the direction of this fuckery.

 

[dmlaw]

One of Sweden's finest cows died to make that suit.

 

[ButterTart]

One of Sweden's finest cows died to make that suit.

She was, however, resurrected shortly after and went on to represent them at Eurovision the following year.

Don’t call @Suomi a cow!

Sweden LOWER than Denmark?

Deserved.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

It makes you wonder what shite was in Melfest for this to get through.

 

[Soldi]

Surely this is a LOW POINT for Eurovision

 

[Lucille]

These postcards really are GRIM!

 

[dmlaw]

I would have been actively disappointed if no one had responded to that set up line.

 

[lolly]

OH NO IT DOESN'T

 

[Lucille]

Who thought MARTIN would make a good MONONYM.

 

[ButterTart]

It makes you wonder what shite was in Melfest for this to get through.

I think it was a couple of nuns screaming into a bucket.

 

[win_the_game]

Love this HOT SHIT.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

It was going so well until his close up, now I have concerns

 

[Soldi]

Better than the last three at least

 

[Soldi]

Have the dancers accused him of sexual assault yet?

 

[dmlaw]

It makes you wonder what shite was in Melfest for this to get through.

A brief look at the list of songs suggest that the voters must have been fucking high.
