Wins: 2005
Expected place: 13th
Highlights
the miming
Lowlights
the dancing... where did he learn to dance like that... oh Oxford st Sydney... fair enough
Greece: Sakis Rouvas 'This is Our Night'
You may remember Sakis from Eurovision 2004 in Turkey... and the beauticians their are still recovering form the amount of hair they removed from one man. He came third then. he also hosted the 2006 Eurovision, now he and his waxologist are back in Eurovision to ensure the entertainment level at Eurovision remains... Average.
there is generic and then there is this. it somehow redefines generic. it is so generic that remains wholly within the euro-pop-dance style so much so that it is completely uninteresting. any differentiating characteristic in this style of music has been removed to create this song to ensure it remains completely generic. whats most amazing is that people still like it
I am ashamed to admit that an Australian was involved in the creation of this song. we will strip him of his citizenship shortly. as for the song though, it is so generic and average that is shouldnt do well, but it will get 12 points from Cyprus. Sakis also is very popular and this song will probably (against all belief and reason) qualify and might even go top ten or even top 5. I think it will stop at 13th, but I wont put money on that.
Ghost of Eurovision Past:Paschalis, Marianna, Robert and Bessy 'Mathima Solfege' - 1977. the High quality act Greece sent to Eurovision in those days which deserved the place it got, unlike some of the acts now that are getting 3rds and really dont deserve it. alteast now days they get their dancing in sync
