Alright, it's a contentious thread title and it'll probably be a contentious thread, but there must be songs or acts that you really hope don't make it past the semi-final stage and this is the place to list them. You can add any of the Big 5 you want to even if it's just pissing in the wind as far as they are concerned.......list the 10 songs you want to flush (in no particular order).......me first:)

Romania
Denmark
Finland
Ireland
San Marino
Greece
Cyprus
Slovakia
Lithuania
Israel

It'll be interesting to come back to this thread in about 5 weeks time to see if opinions have changed..........

The floor is yours guys(and girls;))..........

    Azerbaijan (just to see the reaction. :p That, and I think the song itself is absolutely vile.)
    Armenia
    Turkey
    Bulgaria
    Moldova
    Macedonia
    Ukraine
    Finland

    I could only pick out 8, I don't really hate any of the others. Heavily skewed towards the East as you can see.

    EDIT: I'll throw in Poland and Latvia as well, if we really need ten.

    Malta
    Macedonia
    Moldova
    Ukraine
    Belgium
    Greece
    Cyprus
    Ireland
    Romania
    Latvia
    Armenia

    Are all skipped by me when they appear on my random shuffle.:yawn:

    I would quite like Russia, Turkey and Azerbaijan to flop, purely as it would make the contest healthier if diaspora magnets weren't guaranteed a good result all the time.:o

    Would be kinda funny if Eric Saade didn't make it either:o

    Lithuania
    Portugal

    Greece
    San Marino

    Romania
    Belarus (their previous ode to Belarus would also have made this list! :p)
    Austria
    Slovakia
    Ireland
    Armenia
    Ukraine
    Israel
    Latvia
    San Marino

    I think this is a good year and I found it hard to choose ten- I don't think Latvia or San Marino are that bad, just a bit dull. I'll probably change my mind over the coming weeks as I hated Belgium's song to start with and it's now in my top ten :o

    Germany
    France
    Albania
    Lithuania
    Austria
    Ukraine
    Moldova
    Belarus
    Latvia

    Apart from the top one (which I've not yet managed to get through since it won) none of these are intolerable and for some it's the singer rather than the song which is the problem.

    Great thread. I can put all my anger out in one post, and return to the normal thread feeling rejuvinated and happy:

    Switzerland - Unimaginably dull.
    Austria - I hate smaltzy stuff, and this is channeling Cyprus 2004 far too much for my liking.
    Iceland - For not picking the right song.
    Turkey - For sending a poor song from a genre I don't much care for.
    Greece - Rap interlude. Not for me.
    Moldova - I still haven't liked a Moldovan entry
    Belgium - I'm not an AcaFella.
    Portugal - Throwing away all of your good work from the last few years. Europe won't care about the "statement" this is supposedly making.
    Finland - :yawn::rolleyes:
    Ukraine - I expect a LOT more from Ukraine.

    Sweden - This is the sort of song Pete Waterman gave to his shite acts. Not his to his Kylies.

    Finland - Sickening lyrics and annoying singing voice. It really gets my dander up

    France - I'm quite an opera fan and this is just a poor unmelodic song grafted onto Bolero (totally unoriginal) with a really ugly bit mid song. Kudos to them for trying something different though at least


    Greece - just yuk


    Homens da lute :D:D:D superb but :eek:

    also not keen on Belgium, Malta, Cyprus, Austria, Lithuania, Israel

    The 10 at the bottom of my list (in order) and ones that i will probably never listen to again apart from when they are sung on the shows are:

    Albania,
    Moldova
    Iceland (so disappointing from a country usually in my top 10) :mad: :cry:
    Germany
    Finland
    Cyprus
    Ukraine (also disappointing from a country usually in my top 10) :mad: :cry:
    FYR Macedonia
    Portugal
    Belgium (complete and utter bottom of the pile)

    Are you Portuguese? (Sorry I laughed at the song if you are, Its quite endearing actually)

    If you are Portuguese can I ask what is it protesting against. Is it bankers?
