Final Mornings rehearsals have begun – My people – Listen unto me!

Chiara

United Kingdom – Well….. one is at a loss to describe Javine. I think she is akin to Finland. She tries hard and does what she does really well – and on TV it comes across well. I just think that the next 2 in the draw , Malta in particular and Turkey in very different ways, will extinguish her fire and leave the UK as another damp squib of a result. Be under no illusion peoples of Europe, this song is very very good, but it has definitely been beaten by simply better songs and better performers and better choreography. Prediction – top 10

Malta. As stated with the “better song” category – this is it. By fuck does she sell this song down the camera – the shots in the hall are excellent – now admittedly she is not the thinnest person in the world, however, it is blatantly obvious that she is the talent and she will possibly win this contest. It is a simple performance of a simple song and should do very well indeed.

Turkey – This is dangerous – There are lots of dancing in the local Kazbar – drums that are being hit with verve and lots of heavy choreography. Wearing a cut off Jean Paul Gaultier dress she and her waiters prance around – Sertab-esque grunts and things make this song a damn sight better than it ought to be really! – Prediction – Top 10 possibly. Gulserin also comes across well on stage as well and does look into the camera, at her age I would not say it loves her!

Albania – The only way that this song will get anywhere is with a stick of Dynamite or a lobotomy all over Europe. It’s absolutely dire – The violin playing detracts a little from a heap of an awful song with no redeeming qualities what so ever. Just think , Fans of this contest have been subjected to this since December – Europe will cry after 2 minutes when their ears reach new heights of pain as she wails through the song. Do not vote for this.
