It's OK 
@stockholm: no way am i ripping into jonny, he knows hes one of my fave ppl on here, but he knows il b honest with him! thats all it was, just exchange of pov, hahah jonny is a great kid
Jonny
LOL. Of course, that must be the reason
Stockholm
Yeah it is a snail lol! I thought i'd give euro sheep a bit of competition on the animal front! 
I'm not sure but Romania might not be participating because they might not have a OGAE or something, cause it is all arranged by the OGAE people
Jonny
Yes, "Shine" is a beautiful song I wonder why Romania isn't participating. (Is that a snail in your pic?)
Stockholm
******* SHOCK!!!! ******* Biondo aren't participating?! That is a travesty! Its one of the best songs this year, NF or otherwise 
Jonny
Leona Daly's song is very good. There is a DVD with all songs and you can order it from the Swedish OGAE for free. What a pity Biondo isn't competing. Then I would definitely have ordered it
Stockholm
I doubt it will be the Revelations! Although it may well be Sanna, possibly Kostas Martakis aswell, or maybe even Leona Daly
Jonny
Yes, she sounds much better nowadays In fact I've seen that video before, I think it's from a show in Oslo.
I wonder if the OGAE clubs have chosen a winner of the 2nd chance contest yet. The voting should take place this weekend. Will it be Sanna or the Revelations ...
Stockholm
I like "j'aime la vie", although I much prefer hearing Sandra sing it nowadays than back ion 1986 because her voice has matured and suits the song better - http://uk.youtube.co(...)/watch?v=-dEpJbreehQ (Skip to 0:20)
Jonny
I agree that the Flemish part has better music though I understand French as well as Flemish Yeah, the Walloon entry last year was very good. I also liked the Walloon songs back in 1990, 1976 and 1966. And "J'aime la vie" was a Walloon entry.
Stockholm
We must be two of a kind
And I also have a preference for Flemish songs, not that I can speak Flemish, because I can't and although I can partially speak French, the Flemish half has better music from what i've heard
Generally in ESC I prefer the Flemish songs, although the Waloon songs have on occasions been good, eg 2007 Also Kate Ryan is Flemish, and some of her songs are amazing!
Jonny
Thanks 
I always thought you were the one who kept calm. Maybe we're two of a kind And I'm glad you made up.
Yeah, those two Belgian entries are great as well though I have a preference for the Flemish songs.
Nikola
I also think Serbia will do well, its one of my favourites I'm glad you like Belgium, its my absolute favourite and they also had some other really good songs in their selection this year
These are my 2 favourites from their selection (aswell as "shut up" - http://uk.youtube.co(...)&feature=related
http://uk.youtube.co(...)/watch?v=X2Lpf-lzV8I
Don't worry Stockholm, both cases have ended with making up Thanks for the compliment You're also one of the nicest people here, I can't understand how you keep so calm all the time, its incredible!
Why are people suddenly getting at Jonny, one of the nicest persons on here? This is the 2nd time this week.

I agree, everything works well for girls from Belarus. They sound great live, choreography is good, music is great and lyrics are not so hard (since they are not on English)... catchy song and like I said before it has WINNER written all over it among all this songs.I am really surprised with their song it's really good.
I will vote for Belarus and Cyprus, I hope one of them is winner.
Well...first I have to say that I haven't heard all songs...but among I heard...I really like Belarus...and I think that with this kind song they have really good chances of wining 3rd time...Beside Belarus...I also like and Belgium...but I am afraid that this is not gonna do well...I also have to say that host country chosed good and strong entry,proper for this contest...but I just can't bet that hosts will win...Other songs I've heard are just Ok...I am also supporting Serbia(expected )...but this year's entry is not so strong and good as it was last year...On national selection there were better songs...but who knows...maybe this is gonna work...
aha i understand now (I'm not your sweetheart lol!)
@jonny: sweetheart il deal wit u over msn
Soz but I can't see that i've written anything stupid . . . w're gonna have to agree to disagree.
If its this - "its probably a brainwash saying "SMS for FYROM", its probably nothing to do with SMS'ing friends and stuff" - then u have to realise I don't mean that! I'm not stupid enough to think that it is actually a brainwash, for one thing most people wont be able to understand the lyrics.
@johnny: no i couldnt giv a toss wheter u like it or not... its the stupidity of something u said
I liked Belarus, Armenia and the Netherlands somewhat, but there's not a really good one.
I don't think there's a decent entry somewhere around here...
My personal top-10
12-ROMANIA
10-F.Y.R.O.M.
08-CYPRUS
07-ARMENIA
06-MALTA
