Quote:So, it's something like American Idol? I truly mean no offence to RATers in Europe, but the context makes it sound much like it. Although if Lordi was on it then that's a redeeming quality in itself
Oh it's miles better than American Idol/X-Factor/Pop Idol and all that rubbish! None of those irritating "I've got a terrible sob-story so I should win" things going on either
Lordi were fantastic. I'd heard of them before Eurovision but not only did they have a "gimmick" but the song was actually good too. Cheesy, but good! Even my Dad caught them on TV at the time and went to call me to let me know some of my "friends" were on Eurovision :? Plus I made profit cos I bet on them to win.
In the UK some people even have Eurovision parties with European food, give their votes for who they liked etc. I don't go that far but I do have to write notes on each entry so I remember who they are eg last night I had Russia - whining bloke in white, Poland - fake urgh blaah woman, San Marino - poor mans Muse, Belgium - Campino girl, Andorra - big hair armour dress and Slovenia - lady, strips, chains :lol:
