A rewatch TIMETABLE

I think it's only Molitva I love from 2007. Other stuff I enjoyed like Sirusho, Evridiki etc. hasn't aged well for me.
 
I'm just MESMERED by one of the blonde lesbian's hair in particular
 
2007 is all about Visionary Dream for me, anyway. I'll concede I remember precious little else, lesbian hair flicks sponsored by Silvikrin aside.

I have only listened to the studio version :o

On the contrary, I've only ever listened to the live final version I think. But MANY times.

I can't remember if I even watched 2007 thinking about it. Was Molitva (which sounds like a damaging Final Fantasy item) a favourite beforehand?

I bloody love every dramatic second, the performance is so intense it's astonishing. The brooding build up, the key change, the dramatic circling of her guardians half-heartedly feeling her pain and one looking like she's actively enjoying it. Incredible!

I didn’t really follow any of the preamble back in those days, I just got pissed and watched the contest. I remember people being quite surprised about it, though.

I imagine that winning was prime Wogan behaviour :zombie:

"Serbia?! Who's heard of that?! Unbelievable!"

“She’s not even singing in English!”
Wasn’t that the year the doddery old fuck read out the wrong name at our preselection? He led us to believe Cyndi had won with her cover of You Raise Me Up, then he pulled the rug.
 
Hopefully this quarantine doesn’t stretch into the summer so we’re not forced to watch THOSE.

Yes I think it was the favourite going into the show. Vampires are Alive was also tipped to do big things.

Awesome, cheers. I don’t know why I’m so itching to watch our selection shows again, I just know there were a few Europop semi-bangers knocking about in the late 90s and early 00s.

there were indeed!
 
2007 is easily my least favourite 00s Eurovision, but any final with Visionary Dream, Molitva, Voda, Dancing Lasha Tumbai and Work Your Magic is far from completely worthless.

If it gets down to the weaker lot I'd definitely do 2004 and 2006 first, though. I mean for LENA and CAROLA alone! :disco:
 
Can I suggest, for a change, to watch one of these days a Melodifestivalen final, and 2009 in particular? Petra hosting, Alcázar, Danny Saucedo, Mans, Agnes, diabolical Greta's mother, Big big world's Emilia, pre-Lynda Woodfruff's Sarah Dawn Finer, another song with the best possible title, the SHOCKING voting... It has EVERYTHING.

You're welcome.

 
That’s a great idea - wish more of them were online though, I think it’s just 2009.
 
Not INSTEAD of Eurovision though. Maybe on a Thursday or Friday?

Didn't you say yesterday you've got friends who are a big deal in Eurovision circles? Can they not have a word with SVT?

well SVT have actually put ALL the contests online on their webpage, but unfortunately we’d all need a VPN to watch it outside of Sweden. So maybe we can get RaspberrySwirl to show his monitor on webcam and we can all watch through that.
 
Of course, if we were to do that then we’d also have to risk countless pornography pop-ups, so hopefully RS has lightning reflexes

Of course he could just invite us all round instead. I have it on good authority that he's still able to have up to 50 guests at any one time, no fucks given.

Eurgh MF is like going from snorting to injecting. Once you’ve crossed that bridge there’s no going back.

We have such sights to show you. You'll never understand how raw desperation can turn a train wreck performance into a global cataclysm without watching MF. Nowhere else will middle-aged women shatter a hip and prostitute what's left of their dignity in their vain attempts to succeed against factory-assembled young men whose stage direction ends at 'just stand there and mumble a bit'. Nowhere else could an audience sit unimpressed as Loreen subjects herself to an on-stage crucifixion before having her corpse fired into space in a giant, sequined dildo, yet flick themselves into a frenzy when a young boy wanders on with a guitar because he fancies having a go at this singing lark. Nowhere else could Sean Banan ever happen.

In conclusion: It's quite good 6/10
