hurrah..I have made Jonny K's hitlist!
as soon as he leaves school and wears long trousers he will be after me!
Anyway, I guess all I was trying to say Jonny was why post in EVERY topic? Why not just post when you have something interesting to say? I think you just annoyed me with your idoiocy on Scottish idependence the other day..... try living here! we know more than you...anyway, glad you wished my country luck, as its the same one as yours.... UK... and as Dustin said "he used to sweep up rubbish, now he's singing it!"
Good luck to all this year...for what its worth I will be waving my flag for Laka, but I will see you in Keiv again in 2009....sadly!
PS....no not new here John, just usally browse!... been a fan since I was little and went to Coppenhagen in 2001.... Happy to hear from any "nice" fans on YCroatia@aol.com...
right off to pack up my party boxes for the 24 guests here next weekend for an 80s themed Euro night, my tenth.... Dutch guests welcom..hehe...oh, and Jonny, if he'll forgive me!
The Danish song is really growing on me. Simon is a good singer too. I hope he will qualify.
Lycka till Danmark 
Jonny K:
Nice posts like yours make this site worth visiting. Keep it up!
(I can't be your brother, maybe sister
I like Denmarks song this year! It still growing on me! Good luck Simon and Denmark!
- Scott Young
Aaaah, thanks!!!
Whats wrong with being nice to people??? All I do is wish people good luck, and theres nothing wrong with that is there?
And there are some songs I don't like this year, durrrr! If you bothered to read my profile you would see that, but even though I don't like their songs I would still wish them good luck, its called being friendly
I suppose your ideal esctoday would be where everybody would be depressed and post despressing comments, because from your last comment thats what it sounds like!!
Try and be nice to people because, believe it or not, it gets you friends, try it sometime! 
And I get out plenty thank you very much!
(good luck to your country this year!!! . . . . . lol, I bet you're angry now!!)
NICE SONG AND NICE THOUGHT TOO: DON'T FORGET TO SMILE. ITS JUST A GAME!
Are you new here Scott? Any other profiles..???
o.k song, but the artists are tooo boring on stage. I wanted them to look more "raw"!
And by the way, the interview I didnt like. So plain questions. Im sure Simon have heard them 1000 times before!
my life's ambition is to find a post that the moronic "Jonny K" hasn't responded in.
He is without doubt the most vacuous, pointless poster on here.
He appears to "love" everyone and every song is his favourite.... get out more mate!
NOT A CHANCE FOR THE FINAL.SORRY, MAYBE NEXT YEAR.
OK song, but I hope for a final.
He seems to be relaxed and enjoying things....good for him.
Crossing my fingers for a decent result....
His song is the definition of nauseating.
LOL, he does a great gollum impresssion!!!!!!
Nice interview, Simon has a great voice and decent song! To the final!
I still really like this song and I hope he qualifies. It's nice to have a pure happy song go through!!
Woooo, go Denmark, one of my favourites this year!!!! Good luck from the UK!!!
one of the few here (as i ve noticed) that really like this song...but i could never vote for a wannabe cop...sorry matthew
