Am tapping this out at Burger King in Marylebone station #Stickingittotheman.
Iceland – 20th. Perhaps Europe didn’t like big overblown ballads. Oh wait.
Ireland – 19th. Proof if it were needed that one trick ponies only work the once. I suspect we shan’t be seeing them again next year. Backing singer more evident this time round and boredom of them led to 19th.
Bosnia – 18th. If it’s all political how come 18th?? Balkan song for Balkan people, sung well but no appeal out of the old country. It didn’t get its mandatory 12 from Switzerland either.
Greece – 17th. Lowest position for an eternity. Sighs of relief all round but c’mon, when your formula has this many holes in it not even your own fans should be surprised. Badly sung, badly thought out and finally got what it deserved.
Cyprus – 16th. Beat Greece which was not a shock, but only by 1 which was. Came across well but suspect throaty style and dodgy notes did for this one.
