movies/tv Eurovision Song Contest 2015

[darkwingmare 1,324]

Does anyone watch Eurovision and if so, what are your favorite songs this year, 2015?

 

I personally love the idea with Eurovision, 'cause Europe get this chance every year to share their love for music and culture, we come together in a song contest. It's a fair deal and it's just amazing to see, so powerful with all the countries together in one big thing, cooperating to make a good show for all the people.

I'm so happy to see Australia with us this year too! Even if they're not a part of Europe, they've done a lot for Eurovision through the years and are great with music as well. Welcome to the show, Australia. <3

 

 

Either way, I watched the Semi final part 1 yesterday and my favorites were the following:

 

Romania

I love this one because of the message of the song, and because it's very catchy. I also adore how they decided to sing the first half of the song in Romanian and the second part of it in English. Very clever if you ask me!

 

Serbia

This one had a powerful song, a great message and a fantastic performance! I really enjoyed it, and it caught my attention a little bit extra. <3

 

Hungary

This was a little boring to listen to, but SURELY a beautiful message, fine lyrics, AMAZING light show on stage and a pretty song in general.

 

 

 

What did you think? Are you cheering on your own country this year or another one?
If you're not from Europe, have you watched this show and what do you think of it?

Lemme hear it all!

If you're going to be too negative with opinions though, please try not to be too loud on here. Negativity's nothing to bicker on and about.

 

I'm waiting in excitement for tomorrow, Semi final 2, that my country is going to be competing in!

I watch Eurovision, but to be honest, I had nearly forgotten about it  . 

 

I think that Serbia had a strong and good message, but I think the singer was a little bit bad, I did not think the voice was particularly good. 

 

Hungary was a little boring yes, nice voice (I might be confusing the singer with another singer though), but I did not find the song itself to be that great

 

I thought the Russian song was fun

 

I found the Danish song to be..... rather boring

 

I thought the Estonian song was pretty boring as well

Haha, honestly though Royce, you didn't do thaaat well this year. XD No offense at all though. I mean, you're usually good with your musical numbers.

You'll see Sweden on Thursday! You people need to let me know what you thought about our song later.

Trust me, there's media outrage here due to that, haha.

 

Sweden... our archrivals. lol

Sounds to me that you didn't like any of the songs.    But that's totally okay!

 

I thought the Russian one was very pretty, yes indeed! THAT light-show was AMAZING! Her dress was shining up and they animated the background SO beautifully! I almost dropped my jaw watching that scenery. 

 

Hungary surely had a nice voice this year! I absolutely LOVE that stage that Austria is having for us this year, too. So much possibilities for a show, and Hungary certainly took that opportunity. It was SO pretty with the earth globe under them and a huge, pretty tree in the back. 

 

It's nice to hear others opinions about the whole thing!

I watch the Song Contest. But i never watch the semifinals. I just wait for the real thing to start on saturday.

 

I can already see Germany failing hard again. Without the help of Stefan Raab, there won't be anything to gain here.

 

I make a bold prediction now and say that Mans Zelmerlöw from Sweden wins that thing. Grab your phones, because i call it.

Aww, I bet! Love songs aren't that popular anymore it would seem, it's more popular with songs that has a cool message and artists that stick out, much like "Pheonix" from last year, that won. Or "Euphoria"...     

I'm not 100% certain that our song will go home in Europe this year either, but I sure hope so! I want to see us in the finals! xD Our scenery is great, I just hope he doesn't mess it up. One mess-up from his side could lead to a disaster. He needs to have timing, 100%. I've heard in the news that he's messing up a lot in the rehearsals.

 

RIGHT, we're gonna get ya this year!   Hahah. XD Sorry, I couldn't help myself.

I can see why, actually! I usually never watch the semi finals either, I didn't even know there was such a thing until now. People told me Eurovision was on yesterday and I was like "WHAT?!", so I got on to watch it half an hour in.   But well, I'm watching it all this year I hope!

Really?? I've heard that Germany isn't that bad, but that the singer doesn't have much control of her voice?? I'm sure you'll get some good ratings though.

 

You think?   I sure hope for him, we sent a pretty darn good one this year. I can't recall him ever making it to Eurovision before, but he really did it this time around. I'm voting for him! As long as he doesn't mess it up, we might have a great chance of getting far, at least. I'm looking forward to seeing Australia, too. They're pro's when it comes to music though, Europe is pretty far behind.
