You'd have to be Irish to do that. Face it, mate, you're BRITISH! Try competing for the UK!  :D

If Brian Kennedy can pull it off, so can I :P

The difference is that he is Irish.  :D
Mav, he grew up on the Falls road in Belfast... Northern Ireland if you are being technical.

Oops, I just let slip that I know something about popular culture.  There go my Eurovision hopes >:[

So he must have stolen his passport!  ^_^
We can apply for both... I have an Irish passport BTW :mellow:  It doesn't really matter though.

Let's see how next year will be like... Will all the countries send similar acts? Will Finland find the guts and send Childrem of Bodom in for the kill? Stay tuned... :D

I must be psychic because I knew someone had to mention Children Of Boredom. ^_^ They're not Finland's best band by a long shot. Instead, I say bring on Demigod!  :okok: (I realise this is unrealistic but what the hell

Oh, and I never got round to watching the Eurovision, I wasn't prepared to sit through hours of crap just to see some mock-rock novelty act with silly costumes okay?
 
Personally, I think that Lordi's song is not a good example of Hard Rock, let alone any kind of metal. it was a revived 80's glam rock song with no solo! (which is as outdated as the other pop songs are). Lordi won Eurovision not because of the quality of their song (it was better than most of the songs out there). they won beacuse:

1 - People don't take Eurovision song contest as seriously as they did 10-20 years before. They mocked with it by voting the first marginal act they saw.
2 - People are bored to death with mediocre pop songs, so they voted for the first non-pop song they heard.

PS: Bosnia's song was the best for me.
PS: I can't understand how a country like UK, from which bands like Iron Maiden, The Beatles, or Radiohead are coming from, sends a song with children choir doing a duet with a poor quality rapper, and with 5 teen girls licking a lolipop dancing behind him.

Who could those have been for?  Maybe in case the Turkish and Greek entries attacked each other? :innocent:

being a Turk, who do you think we are? cavemen? There might have some political issues between Greece and Turkey, but that doesn't mean we are uncivilised people. please know the facts and have an opinion before talking about things.

Silky was just joking man...
As for the eurovision... does anybody really care about that anymore?  As a popular "Father Ted" episode cleverly showed, countries may send a poor act to the finals because if they sent a good act and won, they would have to pay for hosting the competition next year.
