Anyone see this? The winning song that we have is some bloke called DJ Daz Sampson (I shit you not) with "Teenage Life" (?) Atrocious song, annoying kids and a very bad rap :x
Actually, it could probably do well

For some reason the use of kids reminded me of Chico (not in a good/fun way). :shock: This Daz person is a twat

I only saw the final performance. Utter shite. Exactly what Eurovision deserves. The British public voted for this and that's what happens when you give braindead morons phones. Didn't those girls look a bit young to be covorting around some middle-aged knobend?

What's with you Europeans and that shitty song contest? All the clips I've of seen feature contestants who sound awful and look like '80's throughbacks.

I'd rather listen to '90's Britpop crap (The era where effeminate men in tight pants who had Beatles haircuts were kings. *shudder*) like Oasis, The Verve and Pulp than awful '80's synth-pop. Honestly WHAT THE FUCK were you thinking you thought shit like Oasis was cool? Then again you guys still think Oasis are cool, judging by the success of their recent album which is "Who Gives a Fuck What the New Oasis Album is Called?"

The only good music to come out of Britain in the 90's was Bristol trip-hop like Massive Attack.

Yeah thats what I thought too, I'm sure they were over 16 and nobody dresses in that kind of old fashioned school uniform (AFAIK) so they were obviously taking the piss - but still. Its' like the famous Britney video - she was over 16 when that video came out (she was 17) and she was wearing the sort of uniform worn in a US HIGH school (6th form?).
In a way the song reminded me of Eminem's "Toy Soldiers" (same squeaky voiced kids).
I only saw the final performance too BTW - I thought "The public voted for this?!" :shock: It was shite IMO.

Actually its' more an obvious rip-off of "Its' a Hard Knock Life" which used a sample of squeaky voices from the musical "Annie", maybe crossed with "Where is the Love" by the Black Eyed Peas.
