By now Turkey was chosen to finals of the song contest!!!

congragulations to one of the greatest Turkish Rock bands

Mor ve Otesi!!!


go go go Turkey!!!

rock them guys!!!

Yeah i wached them, they were sang so great.
i hate that while reviewing all of song our one has been fronzen couple moment it's not nice situation i think so..

What is the URL/site for Eurovision?

Actually, it's a nice song, but there are much better ones :-S Still, much better then the one Turkey had last year (same with Poland though).
I don't like the Greek song... I have no idea why they keep on ranking so high :-S

Haydi haydi haydi Norway

I wish Azerbaijan was in

My favorities were Ukrayna, Türkiye, Portugal...
And yes I wish Azerbaijan was in - because Azerbaijan music is incredible...

I think Serbia's song is undeniably the best.. and the second best is Poland

Here is Serbia's song: Jelena Tomasevic "Oro"

Here is Poland's song: Isis Gee "For Life"

I hope we send Hepsi to the contest next year

Mor ve Ötesi is my favourite turkish band but the song they are entering with is too plain. When you listen to so many songs and have to decide which song you'll give your vote, you won't remember it, it doesn't stand out. And to call it rock is a pity Yes I am one of those people who think the contest has lost it's spark, it's not like in the "good old days"

The Eurovision Song Contest is a joke!! It may be taken seriously in some countries, but no self-respecting UK performer would dare take part – so it is left to unknown artists and “B listers” desperate to be on TV. The only reason for us to watch it is the TV commentator for the UK, Terry Wogan, who makes us laugh at it all and can predict the voting with uncanny accuracy, i.e.: Greece gives 12 points to Cyprus, Cyprus gives 12 points to Greece and the Eastern/Balkan countries vote for eachother with such united political regularly not to mention the Scandinavian countries!!!

Luckily, we know that the UK never has a chance of winning. Even if we put Elton John or Muse up on stage, we could get “nil points” because we are so hated hehe!


HERE are the average scores handed out between the Balkan nations in the past decade:
• BOSNIA: To Macedonia, 7.8; to Slovenia, 5.4; to Serbia, 11.3; to Croatia, 8.1.
• CROATIA: To Bosnia, 6.7; to Macedonia, 6.5; to Serbia, 12; to Slovenia, 7.6.
• MACEDONIA: To Bosnia, 3.7; to Slovenia, 4; to Serbia, 10.7; to Croatia, 8.3.
• SERBIA: To Bosnia, 7.5; to Macedonia, 9.25; to Slovenia, 5; to Croatia, 8.3.
• SLOVENIA: To Bosnia, 6.3; to Macedonia, 7; to Serbia, 11.3; to Croatia, 9.5.

Whatever country it is held in, the hosts are VILE, the music is DIRE and it goes on for far too long. Why not just forget the songs next year and just proceed with the voting - it would be the same result anyway, and at least we would not have to sit through hours and hours of hellish music

This research paper says it all:-

fingers crossed for Turkey!!!

i have liked the girls, ops german song aswell

eurovision........what a shame!!!!!!!

I have no idea how Greece always gets qualified and wins a high spot, they always have horrible songs!

all contest is horrible

Another Fellowship of Eurovision is ended

Everything is for Mother Russia

anyway Russia is the winnder

and Turkey is 7th



actually i dont really care the quality of the songs... its just fun!!! lets enjoy it!!

what place did England come in?

massive musical brainwashing..........horrible!!!!

There wasn't any song that I liked at all. But the last part has always been a fun to watch for me.

You know.
Cypriot Greeks to Greeks = 12 points
Greeks to Cypriot Greeks = 12 points (was not possible this year)

Now we have a similar one this year.
Turkey to Azerbaijan = 12 points
Azerbaijan to Turkey = 12 points

I cannot keep track of which Slavic country votes for another Slavic country, that's another story.

And there are some communities living in some countries.
Turks in UK, Germany, Holland, Belgium, France etc.
Armenians in France, Turkey etc.
Poles in Eire, Germany etc.

And poor England (oops UK) almost always gets the last place. No chance for them. They can forget about winning this contest once again with this format.

Of course voting shows national preferences and would be exactly the same without songs. Balkans will always be high as Yugoslavia got divided. Poland got the same place that Germany and UK did this year! How cool is that?

I hated the Russian song, and the Greek Britney Spears doing Shakira'a hip shaking was not my type either. Turkey did great, I think they deserved a higher place, right after Armenia and Finland. Well..my husband's fav was Spain - especially the choreography, Latvia's Jolly Pirates got us hysterical and Bosnia&Herzegovina left us with a wtf expression on our faces.

Our commentator said that Russia invested loads of money in their song, apparently it paid back. And what is always fun for me when I watch it is guessing the votes. Cyprus to Greece, Sweden to Norway etc

If the criteria had been how good the songs were instead of the boobs&ass and neighborhood factors, Serbia would have taken the first spot followed by Turkey and Croatia.

Congratulations to Mor ve Otesi, they did a very good job, and I`m glad they sang in Turkish. Their song shined out among the crappy songs of Russia Ukraine Greece and Armenia.

Oh, Croatia! I forgot about them - the only country to have someone better than 50 Cent - they have 75Cent .

Greece got so much from Germany as they love shake-ur-boobs type of songs. but the conspiracy theory made me wet my pants

I liked the Fin group the best. (There language is Turkic and I at least heard the word "balta" and one of the group had one).

Mor and Otesi were good but the Azeri song might have been better.

Everything else especially all the slavic countries did stuff that was really derivative from old American Music.

Just proves that no one likes the UK! Our only allies are Ireland and even then Poland and Latvia came above us! Even though our song was much better than most! But Poland too, I thought was a good song but landlocked with only old USSR states and Germany who was not in it, they also fell foul of the voting!

Exactly, apparently nobody likes Poland either.. :-S I just cannot believe how such horrible songs like the one from Greece or Ukraine could get 3rd and 2nd places, even the Russian song was very mediocre. I thought that the German song was bad, but the UK had a nice one this year... something creepy is going on there!

Incidently to Turkey, Israel or Azerbaijan consider themselves to be europeans?

...or just when it suits?

And here is my last word on it! Someone has been very busy since Saturday night! Eurovision on Wiki ............ Everything you could possibly want to know, except how they decided on the countries to participate

I'm feeling ignored here
