Eurovision 2006

July 13th 2006 03:03
I found myself watching the repeat of the Eurovision 2006 contest over the weekend and I couldn't help but wondering - will the joke ever end? Some of the contestants were seriously horrible - bad Europop, bad folk, and even worse attempts at singing in English. Nevertheless, some of them are pretty funny, so I thought they could be shared. Enjoy.

Croatia

This isn't the actual clip from Eurovision, but rather another rendition of the same song by the same artist. If this is Croatian folk at its best, I don't want to know.




Armenia

An excellent example of an attempt to sing in English when it simply shouldn't be done.



Romania

I had forgotten how rampant Eurodance was in Europe even today. I thought it was a nineties thing, but nevertheless, it still seems like a vibrant sub-culture, as can be seen in the Romanian contestant here.



Yet I can't help but think - why didn't they enter Ozone's Numa Numa into Eurovision?

That's the thing - I don't think they do. The song and video clip manage to be pretty embarassing of their own accord...

Yeah I didn't feel I needed to put up the Lordi clip since everyone knows they won anyway. In any case, I can't see how they won - not that they had much in the way of competition, but their music to me seems so contradictory. They seem more like a harder version of Queen rather than some of the metal I've been exposed to. Yet they try and complement it with those ridiculous outfits.
