Yes, it's strange, but whenever I see Ashmodean's avatar I think of sex a lot too.

Yeah, like Kent - Kräm... Or PSB - So Hard, Love Comes Quickly etc. etc.
This sounds great!

I think that Germany's entry is suprisingly well this well this time.

Heared a bit of Turkey's entry and thought it was rubbish.

Is Sweden a male singer???? Surely not, it's a woman right? Or else I've got the wrong song

I like it... very catchy; but I don't hear too much PSB in it...
I'm not keen on Germany this year... too bland in my opinion. I even thought last year's redhaired creature was better... and that means a lot from me

then again I quite liked Guildo, so perhaps you shouldn't listen to me

Afraid you've accidentally taken a fancy to a man?

Nothing to fear there.
Especially not if he's being described as "the third pet shop boy"
It's just the voice seems distinctly feminine. And the name... Lena.

So the writer must not be the performer, as is quite usual in eurovisionland.

To straight things out: Lena Philipsson is the female singer, Orup the male songwriter. Also, we've never said it sounds PSB-ish, just the hidden innuendo ('Det gör ont' meaning 'It hurts', but exactly what hurts?). Innuendo songs could be Love comes quickly and So Hard... Hope I cleared things out.

thanks, you did.
But Asmodean and a friend of mine did say it sounded PSB-ish, or at least had PSB influences.
Unless I'm hallucinating.

For PSB (ok, Alcazar)-influences, try Bosnia this year
Deen - In the Disco.

Oh, maybe they did, but I don't agree with them. It's just a semi-catchy Eurovision song. Destined to get a 15th place, or something. Now, if E-Type would have won...

Compared to the other songs I've heard so far, Sweden is bloody good.
Top 10 I should think.

Then again, some of my favourites last year ended in the last 10.... but my absolute favourite did win.

at least he would have gotten Kettys vote in the final. been a while since I heard such rubbish, utterly crap that song (just as everything else he's ever done)

a shame that After Dark didn't win

I'm glad they didn't. Their 'remix' of Liberation was appalling.

That's E-Smoove, Boi... Surely you must have heard of E-Type? Long hair, open shirt, leather pants? No?
