    I really want Leona Lewis to represent UK 2015. Huge fan of her.
    They could win with her but I understand she's about to restart her career with Island Records, after leaving Simon Cowell so she can't risk a flop on Eurovision.

    I could have sworn I entered the Fantasy ESC last year or the year before...
    In fact I remember exactly which song it was, but there's no record of it on the Wiki.. hmm, maybe it was like preliminary stages or something? Or maybe I forgot to vote and was disqualified?

    In two minds whether to enter this year, although I will only be able to be around for the next month or two..

    I've just checked the DS Ultimate spreadsheets for 2011-2012, 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 and you're not on there at all :( How is that even possible?!

    I could have sworn you did! Which song are you thinking of?

    Oh, and when weedy returns with his magic book of dates - I'm up for hosting at some point this summer (a non Fantasy contest). I had some ideas for contests a while back, so I'll make my mind up closer to the time. :)

    Have we ever had a Best Song From A Country Never To Have Won?

    Some also mentioned a non-Eurovision round of Best Song Under 2:30 which could be fun.

    It would be like the best of Portugal! :D

    Welcome to Fantasy Eurovision 2014 over the course of the next 6 months we will whittle down hundreds of songs to find the best song of 2014.

    We kick off with heat 1 in Birkenhead at the Cammell Lairds ship building yard in the submarine building hall which for the next 2 weeks will play host to our contest

    The rules for the contest are as usual you can enter any song as long as its not been used before or been in ESC or an NF, please consult the wiki for list of songs already taken from 2010-2013
    http://dsfantasyesc.wikia.com/wiki/DS_Fantasy_ESC_Wiki

    Please only enter if you intend to vote as any none voters will have their points reduced by a 3rd and will be excluded from the next fantasy contest.

    Good luck and let the PM's commence :)

    Okay i Pm'ed you but i sent a few. Just take the first one i sent you and ignore the rest.

    I would say they were all overrated.

    p.s. depends if we're meaning according to the polls/fans, or votes on the night.

    I was thinking about basing it on the OGAE fan vote, basically any song which had come in the top 3 (or maybe top 5?) of the OGAE Pre-Eurovision Poll since 2007 would be ineligible to enter. So that would mean no fanwank :)

    What does everyone think to that?

    I'm up for that! It's your contest really, and if you know how you want to run it then go for it :)

    I'd like to host a Best Studio Version (AKA best song ruined by live version) if we haven't done that before? I think the entry I originally chose for Underrated might suit it better...

    Have we done "Most Boring Entry" yet? But that would probably put everyone to sleep. How about the Cutest Entry? :D

    Has there been a Worst Song To Finish In The Top 5? That could be interesting perhaps?

    So let me get this straight I can pick any song from any country as long as said song has never been used before as some voters look down on that. So I can pick a different song from a used artist and that's fine...In other words, I think I have my song :D

    Aah, that makes sense. Although it doesn't really, I'm so confused by all the different Fantasy games, hah!

    I think I have whittled it down to a couple of songs.
    In general do songs of longer length get marked down? I have one in contention that is 6.30.. errr... lol!
