Laurel Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Lena for Germany ... isn't she the one who won it last year with Satellite ... I didn't think the winner could enter it the next year - or I thought that anyway as noone ever has I don't think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if there are any rules, but I think it's a bit boring to hear the same singer twice Thanks Mariposa for the list, must listen to them all again!

Gatagordinha Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 I'm looking forward to a bit of Eurovision this coming week . I've had a couple of listens to all the songs to 'get my ear in' for the Semi finals, and at the moment I find it hard to pick a winner. My own personal favourite is Azerbaijan. The melody in the chorus of their song is so simple but beautiful and I can't get it out of my head. I don't think it will win, though. I'm relieved that my country has a half decent entry this year, because last year...well, here in the UK we do not even speak of it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 1988 the song he wrote 'Why Me' won for Ireland. But thankfully we only had to witness him perform twice (which for me was twice too often:teehee:) This is what he was reduced to in Ireland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suzie Posted May 10, 2011 Author Share Posted May 10, 2011 This song from Switzerland is a really sweet one. I hope it will go through to the finals. let me know if it does The original of the melody is definitely from the guitar riff of Black Sabbath's Paranoid but I think there another song (maybe from the 80s) that is even closer in sound. I liked the song from Georgia, too. That was so much like Evanescence's first hit though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
