Title: Eurovision Song Contest 2007
Post by: Lucy on May 09, 2007, 12:41:36 pm
This is the first time I care about the contest, because I really like the Hungarian singer who will take part. Here (http://www.eurovision.tv/content/view/348/281/) you can read about her.

I can tell you that she is great, because I have already heard her singing a song in a concert, and I was crying. :) She must have a beautiful soul.

By the way she is a great fan of rock.  \m/

I'm not asking you to keep your fingers crossed for her, because everyone of us has a singer from his or her own country. I just want to tell you that I'm worried for her. Not because I would be afraid that she makes a mistake or something, because I think she is pretty strong and she will do her best. I mean that if she won't be understood and honorated enough, her not very old popularity could decrease drastically. I think this contest is a milestone in her career.

What about the contestants from your countries? Do you like them?

Haven't even heard the representative of my country.

I'm obviously not very enthusiastic about the whole ordeal. When we win, I'll rampage through the streets naked shouting 'Hallelujah', but I'll worry about that bridge when I cross it.

The contest is treated very much as a joke over here - an enjoyable joke, but still a joke.

Let me tell you this:  The UK entry is just plain abysmal!!  :ninja:  You have my full permission to laugh at it and ridicule it, no probs. - the whole of the UK will be doing the same  :biggrin:

Lucy, I'll look out for Magdi - I'll even cross my fingers for her!!   :thumbup:

And of course I'll watch, coz it's in Helsinki and that'll remind me of my trip there! Finland is ace and is full of fantastic people!!  :drunk:

Thank you very much. :) May it sound stupid, but I believe that this way we can even help her.

By the way I've found an interview where they asked her the same question I wrote, and she answered this, revealing her personality:

Quote
Given your successes so far within Hungary, and the popularity which you enjoy, do you feel there is any kind of risk for your career if the worst happens and your song did not qualify from the semi final?

Magdi: Well, there is always risk in life, but I like challenges and i will face them.

Well, the best way to help her is to vote for her!  So if she's good I promise I will!  :biggrin:

People can't vote for their own country...

...so you'll have to go abroad to vote for her  :biggrin:

PS  Please, please don't vote for UK

Congrats Lucy!

I usually don't like the Spanish Eurovision song... or I simply HATE IT. Sometimes the song is the contrary of what I like, and I pray to Notessomes it ends the last song of the contest. This year... I simply don't know which song is  :unsure: I'll check if I can hear it (youtube?).

Past year entered in the competition Andorra, who sang in Catalan: as it's almost impossible for the Spanish be in Catalan, Andorra did it (there are two official languages in Andorra: Catalan and French). But they didn't pass to the final. I have to say that the song was not fantastic, but this is another story... at least I did't hate it  :ninja: TI heard the Andorran song for this year, and it's not bad at all... although it's not a great song (very very very young performers of it!).

Now, I have to check 3 songs:

-Magdi, to see if I like it as much as Lucy.

-Spanish song, to see if I hate it as much as usual.

-Andorra, to know if it has reached the final.

At the end, I know I won't remember when the contest is, and I'll have to check in internet for the winner  :biggrin:

And I add: I've heard both Hungarian and Spanish song. About Magdi, it's a great song! It's not my genre at all, but she performs it beautifully, and the song itself is very good. I've seen the clip, and I liked it a lot too... very original and moving!

And I've seen the Spanish too... this time I don't hate it to death. I simply hate it and want it to loose the contest as bad as it can  :ninja:

This is a start, I guess. :thumbup:

And what's in it for me if I don't recommend the Spanish song to all of my friends and acquaintances?

I don't think all your friends and aquitances are so stupid as to vote Spain after listening it!!!  :unsure:

Laughs his backside off, seeing that Luth has inspired the Spanish band to a new song named "Briiing the Suuuun ba-a-a-ack!"

Lucy!

I watched the semi-final thing...  and I gotta say that the entry from Hungary was really very good!  :thumbup:

She gave a great performance, full of passion & emotion - a rare thing indeed in Eurovision land.

I was very pleased to see her progress - let's hope she does well in the final too!  :)

I wasn't able to see the contest, so I can't say which was the best song. But I'm sad Hungary didn't was first. But I'm glad Spain was 20 or below... even so, some country voted it... too bad!!

What do you think, people who saw the contest?  :ninja:

Thank you, Luth. :) You know, politics... we are a little lonely country. ;) But she got the prize for the best songwriter! :wOOt:

I´m late?

I couldn´t say anything about Spain´s song. Bullshit, as usual. I saw all the contest (mid-finals included) and the best songs, in my opinion were:

Ukraine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzJBspWwMsI
Finland: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ty2DABt1VSw
Slovenia: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-DD_gsPtwo

Enjoy them. :thumbup:
