Azerbaijan's entry for Eurovision 2008.

A) It deserves a thread of its own.
B) Eurovision is about more than music or "music", so it doesn't belong in the music discussion forum! (And no one would watch it if I posted it there.)

Thats pretty good for Eurovision. It wont win because its not ex eastern block

Really technically it is, but I still wouldn't call it Eastern European.

More like Asian. Aslan? *** LAN! Oh goodie.

Oh dear.

Winnar. Or the Turkish one. Or this Irish one here

That's the worst thing I've ever seen. I want to gouge my eyes out and stick pencils in my ears.

Yup. Eurovision material alright.

I made it to 28 seconds and could take it no longer...

Good God... D: Seriously, that's basically a Wizard of Oz reference. He sounds like a monkey and he has wings.

I actually sort of like the turkish one.

;_;

I can't listen to the Irish one, but the first one Anchoveis posted is really awesome, I think.

Turkey: Mor ve Ötesi - Deli



The live one where they won the Turkish vote was crappy quality. I like this one better. Deli means "Crazy"

Huh? It's horrible.

The complete lack of respect for any ordinary standard of quality that marks most Eurovision entries is not quite as apparent in the Bulgarian and Turkish songs.

Ireland, on the other hand, is obviously playing on the one thing that unites Eurovision voters in every country: scorn for Eurovision.

I've been meaning to find out... will any TV station in the U.S. carry this? Or will I be forced to stream it on my computer? Not watching it is not an option... I watched last year's contest in Copenhagen and it was a terrific time.

You have to watch it via stream.

You won't hear commentators for any country either, just the hosts.

Don't worry though, it's only a 10-30 second delay from the television broadcast. Cavey ruined a bunch of things for me last year

I can't imagine watching it from anywhere but Britland, without Terry Wogan taking the crap out of everything it would be pointless.
