Ooh, I was watching Eurovision last night as well. Only the actual singing part though - I got bored during the break before the voting. But I caught up on the scores this morning.
I couldn't agree with you more - the UK entry was terrible. I mean, Bonnie Tyler's amazing, but she's somewhere in the region on 62 and while I hope I look half as good as her when I'm that age, her voice was lacking. She couldn't hold her notes and I cringed all the way through the opening verse.
I felt bad for Ireland too. I didn't think they were that bad. My favourites were Denmark and Azerbaijan and they came first and second respectively, so the majority of Europe must have agreed with me :)
I think it's a typo of ;A; Now I'm not the person to ask about emoticons since I thought >D was a duck, but I always thought ;A; was a shocked, crying face??
Oh, I find the voting the most fun haha! I'm pretty good at predicting the votes based purely on political affiliation, so I love making my friends goggle by guessing where the points are going to go. XD
The less said about Bonnie Tyler's performance, the better, I feel. My housemates and I were all sitting here grimacing. :/ And we're all Brits!
I really liked Romania! I was so sad they didn't do better. Definitely my favourite, along with Greece, although a song called "Alcohol is Free" would always win my vote. XD Though yeah, Ireland weren't quite as bad as the points suggested. Personally, I felt like Finland should have been last for feminist reasons.
Thank you for the help re: the emoticon! I was sure it looked vaguely familiar - a shocked/crying face would make sense in context I guess.
Yes, fortunately! :D I have a lovely artist, bloodsongs - I've seen her work before and it's gorgeous, I'm really looking forward to working with her. :)
