Pedro Framptonera is sh1t like everything else that's been on bar Portugal which was a rather lovely piece of music.

How Croatia think that thing isn't parody is beyond me.

it's just RnB Mariah Carey meets Amy Whitehouse BIG SINGING, it's got no soul to any of it and they all sound the same. Punk or Europop? We voted Brexit, now get that cr*p off English TV, COME WHAT MAY...

Well played Lucie. Sang very well I think. Far better song than most of the tripe served up so far. Not that it's going to make the slightest bit of difference, lol.

The Germany song's intro is blatantly David Guetta's Titanium.

I thought Italy's was quite catchy, and Lucie Jones did well for the UK. The rest has been meh.

Bulgaria up next - I think it's the best song.

Yeah, I liked the UK song this year. Don't remember the Italy one.

Bulgaria's was indeed pretty catchy. Is that the favourite?

If I'm remembering the points right the Seaford juryt give Germany 15 pts. Greece 12 pts. Belgium 10 pts. Norway 8 pts.

UK entry was rather appropriately a strong and stable singer given a sh1te song to sing.

Netherlands wasn't too bad. Portugal was easily the best of the night.

Portugal's was probably my least favourite! Each to their own I suppose. I believe it's one of the favourites to win.

It was the best piece of music and the vocals were unique, the guy had a bit of a twitchy quality, that I liked for some reason.

Best song was the "if Bjork joined the star wars cantina band" at the end

I liked that electroband that was on a few minutes ago.

The bird on the keyboard with the short dark hair was fit as ten.

Yep. By a mile. Obviously it's just taste and others will like different songs but it was the most musically sophisticated. Easily.

I believe it was a big favourite with the bookies, could all go to pot for them on the popular vote.

Thought the UK deserved better than that.

At least it wasn't a Brit who showed his arse anyway.

99/100 I go for girls with long hair. For the 'bird on the keyboard' I'd make an exception (she'll be pleased to know ;) )
