Eurovision 2015

Post by GreyWizzard »

Getting in early as Australia has been invited for the 60th Anniversary :D

SBS are looking into ways how to decide a representative.

Australia is automatically into the final which is great, because if we win we get to host 2016. It's a once off thing, we aren't permanent members of the show.

That Jessica Mauboy gets her head into a lot of stuff. She was trying to sell me Telstra services recently. Not sure what makes her a communications tech expert but she must be. I can't comment on her music/songs...I've never heard one. But she knows heaps about texting or something.

I had to come back in the thread after hearing the talk about TISM in the news. I hope it happens, I'd actually watch it if that happened.

Whilst I'm pretty unhappy about us being in it, a wobble board tie me kangaroo down sport tribute to Rolf would fit nicely

They might be AFL fans so it could be ok.

If they sing I Might Be A Cunt But I'm Not A Fucking Cunt it could go over well too

I don't know... He is pretty big right now, really making headway into the US charts. If they get him a really good pop song he could do well on the show. I think we may pick up a lot of votes purely because of the strangeness of it all.

Guy Sebastian is not a fun choice. But then again they're not catering for me. Regardless, into the bin!

They were never going to go someone like TISM, it was going to be someone who is relevant of todays pop music. Now my brain is saying Karise Eden (however her first name is spelt). She would have been able to do a powerful ballad style number.

Who picked him? How was the decision made?

Can we at least give him a balaclava and a 6ft condom balloon thing to wear on his head?

Guy. Fucking. Sebastian.

Our only bloody hope to win was to play the novelty card, but instead, somehow Guy "Everlastingly Dull" Sebastian is supposed to represent Australia. Ugh.

Whenever someone mentions Australia I instantly think of Guy Sebastian, he's so dreamy.

Oh and your empty trophy cabinet. With Guy standing next to it. Singing "You're the Voice'.

Internal decision by SBS. What a shame, we could have had a road to Eurovision contest with artists that we vote on... Oh well... so good to see how the fans were included in the decision :(

Was it General Cyberfunk who once likened Guy Sebastian's face to a baboon's arse? That one stuck with me.
