"Years ago when I was younger"... what, when you were in the sandbox? Had your voice cracked yet? Give me a hint here.

Ahahah yeah, I can't believe I want us to lose this hard... but I can't watch Eurovision 2009 this year and look at Rybak without feeling like I've just been Rickroll'd by national television.

yea that bald guy is so awesome
i had the impression they were just friends and not really musicians, although a couple of them are decent singers
and that bald guy just wanted to tag along so they agreed he'd just do a crazy dance so he could be part of it

I have the same arrangement with my friends, they're gonna make a band and I can't play any instruments nor sing, but I'll get to be part of their stage performance anyway

lol qft

omg... Malta got through, bosnia and not belarus? WTF! Portugal was some fucking child story telling and that shit got through? people in europe, are you fucking blind and deaf? romania had a weird song where the lyrics doesn't even match the dress and theme and no idea how people vote for finland as well....Also the camara men made Montenegro fail, the only positive from the song is that the singer is sexy as fuck, and twice she gave the opportunity for us to see her underwear and those bastard holding the camara failed.

The only one I like in the first group who qualified are iceland and sweden, although I don't understand a single word of those high notes by sweden.

In case some of our cross-atlantic friends were interested in this spectacle, it's currently going on live here.

why didnt this win the eurovision?

I quess it doesn't have that "strong emotion" which every other eurovision song tries to get -_-
Also it doesn't stay in your head as annoyingly as most other eurovision songs

don't see how malta was lip syncing, it is a rule that requires the leading singer to be performing live on stage where and visible, thats why I asked about the Romania performance (as mentioned by the uk commentator as well). so unless there were more than 1 person on stage during the malta song, I doubt the rules will be bent. Anyway, according to history the malta singer had already come 2nd and 3rd in previous years.
