wins: o
expeced place, borderline, though will not qualify
highlights
high speed ethnic dancers.
lowlights
the male vocal. all of it
Moldova: Nelly Ciobanu - 'Hora din Moldova'
mmm ethno-dance. why does it make me think of the zorbas dance remix from like 10 years ago? i mean it is better than most of the ethno-pop and ethno-dance from this year, but that doesnt make it good, it just makes it... well Eurovision
the most annoying thing is the male vocalist. his mic is up too loud for his voice. this makes all the lines he sing go too loud over the top of the lead singer. hopefully this will be fixed in the event, but then maybe loud dominating males are the thing in Moldova... unlike in other Euopean countries... < end sarcasm >
the dancers on crack were fun to watch, only because i wanted to see carnage. i want to see a eurovision stack, because despite all the preparation and rehearsals and whinging that the Russian broadcaster is being a twunt, on the night, no one cares, we just want to see tears.
Ghost of Eurovision Past Zdob si Zdub - 'Bunica Bate Toba' - 2005. I wasngt going to post tis one, but had to by popular demand. the english title is roughly 'grandma bangs the drum', a title which becomes obvious when the old lady stands. i think the best thing is that much of this song is in English... who'd have thunk it
