So far it's shown that men from the Ukraine can be made to run like gerbils for their ladies, Belarus men do watch cable TV replays of Ocean's Eleven, Azerbaijan set designers are definitely into phallic backgrounds, and Iceland RULES! The rainbow boys are really cool and have my vote.

The winner takes it all - the competition is held in the country of last years winner. We really want to win but we don't want to hold the competition. There is no venue big enough here and you need to buy all sorts of props and stage lights that we cannot afford. But we still want to win.<br />Yrsa Sigurdardottirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05889410114439001207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1990338437877873686.post-27173984769716288312014-05-08T14:21:56.984-04:002014-05-08T14:21:56.984-04:00Top ten song :-)Top ten song :-)Yrsa Sigurdardottirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05889410114439001207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1990338437877873686.post-60700343232780650562014-05-08T14:21:03.632-04:002014-05-08T14:21:03.632-04:00Hi Caro - now that you say it, I did feel a lot mo...Hi Caro - now that you say it, I did feel a lot more normal watching than I usually do.

With all due respect to Europe, the three MCs were awful - tense, stiff, and unfunny. Fortunately their lack of humour was more than offset by the unintentional humour of the performances. Most performers seemed to need a distraction in the background - a man who ran in a barrel - and fell out once; a roller-skater who wandered around the stage; supposedly good-looking men who tried to synchronize in a dance; a supposedly good-looking man who lifted, swung, and twirled the female singer while she was singing; dark, shadowy figures who emerged from dark corners of the stage; as well as over-the-top lighting and pyrotechnics. I have to admit I never gave the Icelandic band a chance - each had a brightly coloured suit, each of a different colour. I agree with Yrsa - the only way they made it into the final was through a conspiracy. The other really noteworthy act, which also made it to the final, was two Russian female singers (maybe twins) who sang most of their song with their hair tied together. When their song was announced to progress to the finals, they looked as astonished as everyone else. My favorite performance - from Portugal - did not make it through. My least favorite - what appeared to be a man singing about a woman (I can't remember the country) while she was apparently being sexually assaulted in the background - made it through with acclaim. But then what do I know about what's hot and what's not in Europe.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
