Serebro - Despite having nearly as many line-up changes as the Sugababes, they still know how to deliver the smutty bangers. I thought that was going to be a toy shop of a different kind... show me where on the teddy Serebro touched you.
Umberto Tozzi - Umberto looks about as thrilled as I do. Next.
Enrique Iglesias feat. Descemer Bueno, Gente de Zona - 1 Billion views, that's just mental! :eek: I heard the English version of this in Majorca, upbeat Enrique is where it's at.
Jocelyn Alice - What pretentious drivel. Appalling diction, my ears are bleeding.
Yeng Constantino - Yes she can sing, but it's just Disney by numbers and doesn't really go anywhere. Where's all the bonkers Asian entries?
JoJo - JoJo's back and hasn't missed a beat. Pity she can no longer afford anywhere better than a disused factory.
Dire Straits - Predictable dad rock.
The Firm - A blast from the past! A staple song of any kids party as a nipper.
Carlos Vives ft Fanny Lu, Fonseca, Maluma, Andrea Echeverri, Cholo Valderrama, Coral Group & Herencia de Timbiqui - Not many royalties to share what with all that lot. Not bad, essentially a visit Colombia trailer, the cartel section must be in the outtakes.
Kerri Watt - Brokeback Motorbikes. The song and video work perfectly together.
Elizabeth Tan feat. Faizal Tahir - The same Elizabeth Tan that I've seen in Corrie and The Syndicate?? She has a good voice, song's yet more Disney vanilla though.
Kendji Girac - Kendji's back to try and redeem himself. It's decent, but nothing that hasn't been done before.
BØRNS - Would be a good advert song. Took me ages to realise it was a bloke.
Zlad! - Just the insanity I was looking for in this playlist.
Knez - Terrible. Quite the coup getting Prince on guitar though.
Jessie Ware - I prefer the remixes that give it the jump start it needs.
Sylwia Grzeszczak feat. Sound'n'Grace - Has grower potential at least. All that way just to look at a deer... okay then?
misono - Yay bonkers Asian!! Had a feeling this might be the one in the playlist. Not quite on Babymetal's level, but it certainly helps take the edge off most of the dross I've had to sit through so far.
Kuba Oms - A Maroon 5 rejected b-side.
Alexa Goddard - So much more mature than So There, hard to believe the songs are from the same singer.
Little Richard - One for the pensioners to have a boogie.
Sade - Leaves me cold I'm afraid. Great for insomnia though.
Marty Wilde - Annoyingly catchy.
Highasakite - Great band name! I wish I was. You'd probably lose more than just your hands getting shitfaced and 'befriending' a married man in Iran. :eek::D Just the right level of quirky and I love the drums.
Niello feat. Janice - Can we just bin off Niello and make this Janice' song? His talk singing spoils what is a banging tune.

I'm off to Mexico on Saturday, maybe I will also have a Eurovision related experience. My only previous one was when I was at Egypt earlier this year and they kept playing Euphoria at the hotel, but I think they probably only had one party hits album which they kept repeating.
Was Bonnie drunk by any chance I can't remember (yes, I am fully aware she probably was )

I could do Heat 6, or one of the two before that if anyone has contest suggestions?! Could do the 19th october one if bbg is doing the 12th october one..? Promise I wont f up the results this time! haha!
Just want to make you all aware that EestiLout has a made a great job of completing Peter30's 2015 poll. The results are interesting, but so far I am the only person to comment.
Yes, as expected Australia will taker part in Sofia. Agreed with Phil that at least this will make it "more likely" to see them in Stockholm as well...
Not sure how I would feel about having Australia as permanent participants in ESC. One thing is for certain, there will be backlash whether they didgeridoo get invited back or if they didgeridon't.
Thanks to the volunteers who came forward. The calendar looks like this:

Reports are coming through of a Portuguese exit, what have they got against the Swedes
I suppose Portugal are fed up with their poor results and have finally decided to withdraw, a bit like Austria were between 2008-2010 when they withdrew.

Carlos Vives ft Fanny Lu, Fonseca, Maluma, Andrea Echeverri, Cholo Valderrama, Coral Group & Herencia de Timbiqui - La Tierra del Olvido 2015 - This is good! Really enjoyed this, love the music video.
Kerri Watt - Long Way Home - Again, another good one!
Elizabeth Tan feat. Faizal Tahir - Setia - This isn't bad either.
Kendji Girac - Andalouse - Not what I was expecting from Kendji....
BØRNS - Electric Love - Not for me.
Zlad! - Electronik Supersonik - No thanks...
Knez - Mia Bella Signorina - Dissapointing...
Jessie Ware - Say You Love Me - This isn't bad though.

misono - VS - Not for me.
Kuba Oms - My Love - See misono...
