and only until the second vote... Only Andorra and Portugal gave us the 12 points. Hehe, good neighbourhod  Ukraine was at least original, but I liked other songs best. Not the spanish one BTW,

Two guys sitting, one with a guitar? That was the Netherlands. Was a pretty good song.

I really don't understand a single point that went to Sweden. That poppy-pop song was not really good. Nah. It has destroyed my perfect image of Sweden. I will never see this country with the same eyes again. Yuck. No. No. No. But I liked the comment of your moderator: Swedish songs like that one are like Coke. The sell good but nobody knows what the ingredients are.

So since the Ukrainian singer won, the 50th Eurovision Song Contest is supposed to be held in Kiev or so next year. But according to the newspaper, it isn't certain that the Ukraine will be able to arrange the contest. The economy and infrastructure of the country speak against it, and government television hardly has any money at all.
That means if the Ukraine decides not to arrange the contest, some other country might be offered to do it - and they say Sweden is a hot candidate. So with some luck, the 50th contest will be held here in Stockholm This wouldn't be the first time a country 'gives away' the contest to another country. After Israel had won two times in a row, they had no means to organize the contest again and thus, they let the Netherlands be the organizer. Quote:

Do people still have "Eurovision parties"? It was a big ironic thing a few years ago, particularly amongst gays, to have a camp-as-knickers cocktail party, as people do for the Oscars.

 i am sure there is nothing political going on, but it is rather strange how the scandinavian nations often vote well on each other, isn't it |
