Finland. Oh. My. Gods. It was sort of OK until the lead singer spread his wings...

I didn't know Shakira came from the Ukraine. Good performance though.

I find it curious that most contestants are singing in English, even though it's not their native language. Of course, the French sing in french, it's a good language to sing in.
And this entry once more makes me think that there's something wrong with either my ears or with the singers' in-ear monitoring, because many of them sing slightly - or in this case, mor than slightly - sharp, especially those who sing slower songs.

Croatia rawks! Though I don't know what this is about, it's sure fun to see.

Ireland. I expected either a folky thing or a classical Eurovision song, and got the latter. Where's my lighter...

I'm watching this over the Dutch channel, because the German one is unlistenable to - there's a horrible phase variance in the sound - and the Dutch guy just said something about Prozac-Pop. I agree with him.

Don't ask me what the entry from Turkey sounded like; I was watching the hot guys dancing.

Armenia - Euro-Pop, yes, but with definite home country flavour. Mmm, bondage choreography.

Yep, I voted. Now to wait and see who wins.

I'll stop spamming your f-list now. ;)
