    Given he only sings for about 2 thirds of the song, if they cut him any more it'll be verging on Nocturne territory. ;)
    Nothing wrong with Nocturne territory ;)
    In other news, why couldn't my mother have crossed her legs til June- it's my birthday tomorrow and we're in the middle of another blizzard!
    You are having a blizzard? :eek:
    We are, once again, but I thought UK would be safe from blizzards... I'll be there next week (can't wait!) and was looking forward to escaping from the snow!!!

    Wow, really?! What are you up to? PM me if it's secret ;)

    And don't listen to 21CB, we're going to have a little bit more snow, followed by a bit of rain - you'll be fine!

    No, it's not a secret - just having a long weekend in London with my best friend, planning some fun (shopping & 4-day version of girls' night out), check some of my old haunts etc. :) Can't tell you how much I need a break (and my friend too, she's just got over a serious illness)!

    According to the weather forecast sites it should be about 10 degrees warmer over there next week than here (+5 C against our -5), so indeed it sounds like we'll be fine ;)
    Koza Mostra – Alcohol is free
    That sounds like my favourite already! :p

    Spain:

    All very typical of El Sueño de Morfeo. None of them really standing out, but definitely feeling Atrévete. Would be nice to see that on stage in May.

    Completely OT, but do you think we'll ever get Poland back?

    I was watching a video on YouTube of every one of their entries from 2000-2011 and they seemed to send some good songs that were ruined by poor staging/ poor vocals.

    They had the chance to include this in the NF but rejected it in 2011- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ab0CcXBtTG4

    That would really have been something!

    Wow, I agree, that would have been awesome!
    And not only would it have been a strong, dramatic song that stood out from anything else in 2011, there would have been zero chance of them dressing up like cheap strippers and singing badly out of tune!

    That would have been a much more dynamic start to SF1- but it didn't even make the National Final!

    Magdalena just fell to pieces- I'm sure they didn't want to qualify. I can't believe their last finalist was Isis OMGee!

    It's getting full on as pretty much only Sundays remain empty for news or releases now :)

    Have now got home and listened to the Spanish songs, and agree with pretty much all of you - Atrévete sounds like a winner (of their NF!) to me

    No one has said much about Annsofi's chances on Saturday - there's a chance that Rybak might join her on stage for the twiddly fiddly bits

    I hope they were deliberately missing out the bit where it turns into massive foot stomper

    And Nodi has a face for radio doesn't he?
