Eurovision Song Contest 2007 # 7

Pois só me apatece entrar nesta onda de "revolta"...

"The 2007 Semi final of the Eurovision Song Contest has produced one major story. All ten qualifiers are from the East and Central Europe. Serbia, FYR Macedonia, Slovenia are all from ex-Yugoslavia. Moldova, Georgia, Belarus and Latvia are all former Soviet Union states. Turkey are the most South-Eastern outpost and Hungary and Bulgaria are to the East.

Countries tipped to do well such as Switzerland, Cyprus, Malta, Norway, Denmark, Andorra and Netherlands along with Portugal, Iceland and Belgium once again miss out. Whether it is political voting taking a stronger hand than ever remains to be seen until the voting numbers are revealed but there is rising anger in the press centre at what feels like a fix to many Western European journalists.

Head of the United Kingdom delegation, Dominic Smith told esctoday.com that "From the United Kingdom's perspective, it makes you doubt what our motivation would be to enter the semi final, there absolutely no motivation with this result. I was sorry to see Denmark not there, Switzerland was good, Netherlands was good".

Christer Bjorkman, head of the Swedish delegation told us: "There are no big surprises here. To be quite honest, they send good songs. I had hope for Andorra, and maybe Switzerland. They take it seriously and their voters are more devoted, but I do understand the frustration". Asked if this result worries him about Sweden's chances on Saturday, Mr. Bjorkman said "Yes, because there are ten more good songs in the final".

There is sure to be more on this story in the upcoming press conference and meetings amongst Western delegations in the next few hours. esctoday.com are live in the press centre and will be covering live."

Foi exactamente isto que pensei quando foram divulgados os 10 nomes que passaram à final... É sempre assim desde que a UER escolheu esta formade seleccionar as músicas. Acho que para o ano que vem vão ser feitas alterações. Cheira-me!!!

Sobre a nossa grande querida Sabrina!!! Que dizer? MEDO!!! Casalinho dos Alunos que Apolo???? Amei as notas abaixo que ela tentava cantar... E amigosa cor do momento é o BRANCO!!!

Sobre a cerimónia: nada a destacar nem a dizer mal. Mesmo. Tudo muito regular e sem grandes novidades. Nem para o bom, nem para o mau.

Até sábado...
