The 2008 contest, apart from the winner, was flawless. The camera work was splendid, the sound worked amazingly, and the songs were bops. Who would've expected such amazing organization from Serbia, a country known for corruption and Ceca?

I think that corruption actually helped them in organising such an amazing show.

Ha taste is tragic.

Her taste is tragic indeed.

Right? I don't understand how Carola from Sweden arrived 5th in the final with the exact same type of song and performance as Kate Ryan

Tragique.

[P!nk Forever]

I'm calling it. I think someone else did in here. But Greta Salomé will be the robbed fan-flop this year who stays in semi. Ha exposure doesn't seem huge enough. Ha place will probably be taken by someone undeserving like Finland.

2008 was the s***, love it.

It was before her live performances
She looks and sounds terrible

I guess the battle is between France and Russia this year

I guess it's a battle between the OGAE poll winners France and Hungary like in 2011, right?
You're the only one thinking she sounded bad. She was flawless, I don't get why you're so pressed.

Idk, I guess I expected her to slay live but she was just meh. (flawless? are you for real?)
I'm really disappointed tbh

You can see she was one of my favorites a month ago, but now she's not even in my top 15

And this year the OGAE votes are pretty reflecting the GP who're watching ESC.

Another person who is bitter about Szpak.

He will probably do good in semi cause we are with countries where are a lot of Polish imigrants.

I hope he'll fail though.

[KillingYourCareer]

We won't know what the GP thinks until the day of the contest, can we not. I honestly don't see it for France. Maybe top 5, but not a contender for victory.

In my case, my non-eurovision fans friends only know the Russian and French songs because of their hype in Israel.
I know that the OGAE taste is usually much different from the GP (), but this year - I think it'll be pretty much the same.
