In Malta you have to drop your entry off in person lol

Also they are doing away with the pointless semifinal too and it will just be a 1 night show I suppose that means they can concentrate on the quality of the songs. Dose mean les adverts for Rocs Travel and Crosscraft

No! I love a good Maltese Marathon with all the quirky ads. Who wants less of that?

They already did away with the sparkly room!

It'll still be about 4hrs long with all the adverts.

Finland are rumoured to be downsizing to a one night show as well.

That's a shame, there will be less songs and they always have a high quality selection

Uhh have to recap i barely remember that song not ever being a GA fan. seriously could they not find anything better than that. Something from the Bangles would have been better or Take That, Duran Duran etc.. Spandau ballet even. I see some of the other acts have fudged the rules on girl/boy bands grrr

80's was my favorite era for music. I'm more into very heavy rock these days and eurovsion of course lol

I was thinking , what not JLS tracks or did they piss Louis off as well



edited to say just listened to it. Its okay i guess (cheryl's voice not impressive at all b) it a bit of a meh song , best bit is the guitar riff in the middle. Im sure it will be made better by Saara's unique spin on all she does. will have to hope for the best.

Hmm. .. well it's lively, and Saara will belt it out- Looking at some of the other song choicea they're all terrible/cheesy af or both so maybe she'll stand out again?

Great performance but crap song. never liked GA Tescos value range Spice girls . You may be right though. Personally i think there were others who were worse. Time for Ryan to go , he was dire and looked miserable the whole time.

Least Saara is on the tour.

I agree, sadly Matt won't be going anywhere for the foreseeable. He's got the tween vote locked down, even though he was abysmal last night. I love Girls Aloud, but yeah SOTU is pretty basic vocally, Saara did well to maximise it with her theatrical twist and turning the whole thing up to 11 with the psychedelic Japanese wonderland.

Meanwhile in NF Guilty Pleasures matters. I've got 18 entries so far from 11 different countries. Keep them coming in, still got until 5pm to send me something. If you've had a crap week you really don't want to miss out on this playlist I promise! All will be revealed after Ross has done the results of the Best NF Reject Staging.
