I’ve been asked for my views. Well, OK, I asked someone to ask me what my views are. At least, I think that someone asked me to ask me what my views are. Or it could have been about my shoes. It all got a bit confusing.
Moldova woked us all up with his sedate light-entertainment pastiche of a song. You want sensible policemen and women? You got them, at least from the waist up. Below the waist they’d gone all Alpine on us. I would never dare dancing in tight leather shorts. I only hope there was plenty of talc to get into them. And I’ve never seen such a substantial jungle gym. It was a feast for eye and, well, other eye.
Armenia like purple. And strange things on their foreheads. I’m always telling this my aunt Rigia Ametnikian. Get that thing off your forehead. And get my uncle’s jacket sleeves repaired. And on no account unroll your massive world map. And do they listen? Of course not. It must be a national trait. They all can sing, it has to be said. Does it deserve to qualify? well, it’s a tiny bit short of being overly political which is a bad thing. Had certain other countries been in this semi-final, it might have got messy. On balance, I think it will qualify but die in the final.
Loïc from Belgium seems a bit distracted. To be fair, so did I. He does his schtick OK, it’s his backing singers I worry about. They start in the center of stage, not him. They jiggy about a bit, not him. He falls over. Then they do, just to make him feel wanted. It needs a bit of work, but I’ve always liked this song and I still do. However I think its chances of qualifying have diminished.
The Dutch song’s chances have also diminished severely. Guffaws aplenty when we saw Trinity’s daring outfit. It looks like she’s been attacked by a pair of pinking shears. Luckily she fought off her attacker just in time otherwise we’d see more of her red light area. The veil, which she wears for about six bars, is irrelevant in my opinion. She looks like a middle-aged widow who’s going all cougar. It needs a big, big rethink.
More later, when I’ve finished my free chocolate wafer biscuits.
