One another note, that German song was released just before Eurovision and was selling exceptionally well (broke a few download records for German artists) and had went Gold 3 times before the contest began over the European continent.

Hardly surprising, considering it was Germany's first piece of pop music ever.

England should pull out of the Eurovision-countries vote politically and nobody likes us

Have you ever heard of Die Toten Hosen?

[Gre]

Well we can't fail this year. The mighty Blue are representing us, and the public have no say in either that choice, or the choice of the song.

Roll on May the 14th!

i take it they're being paid a shedload for it cos that's the only reason why i can see them agreeing to it. final nail in the blue coffin unless they win. which is hugely unlikely, if not impossible.

*awaits pogo saying how he'll come back at some point to say how eurovision voting is in no way political, but then fail to.

"It's nothing to do with being English," he insisted. "It's because we haven't put a good song in for a long time."

our songs are always shit so no one can really say if we get shit points because everyone hates us, or if it is because of the song.

they should just put someone really good in who's famous all over the world, to see if they'd still get shit points. that's the only way to prove if it's down to the song or not.

Last years winner was famous over a lot of Europe last year, and is in it again this year.

On the subject of tonight- hurrah for Georgia getting through, boo for Croatia & Norway not.

Prediction for Saturday; Blue will be shite and lucky to be out of the bottom five. Jedward will do little better.

Which song did "please release me"? Knock off the number one slot on the hit parade?

Which song did "please release me"? Knock off the number one slot on the hit parade?

it didn't knock it off number one, it kept it from getting to number one.

Strawberry Fields.

nerrrrrr

[Ed209]

And in fact Strawberry Fields/Penny Lane outsold please release me by almost 2 to 1. Its only because back then they counted double A sides as two seperate releases that it didn't get the number one spot
