Really makes you wonder ...

Yeah, it seems the Russian authorities haven't entered the 21st century yet.

Presumably they'll claim that homosexuality is a NATO plot.

Moldova is being excellent, excellent outfit on the singer and great tune. If it was in english it would be a real contender for winning.

I'm more impressed with the LED screens all around the set. In high def (BBC HD) the sets look amazing.

Yeah, even more impressive were the screens shaped like giant Russian dolls which featured in the first semi-final interval. At one point they "froze over" and one of the dancers smashed the ice of them with a hammer, totally in sync.

Apparently the BBC edited all of the interval though in favour of showing stuff about the British entry... :rolleyes:

Well, looks like Norway have it in the bag already, they've stayed top of the votes so far.

Unfortunately Britain's abomination of a "song" is doing well too.

Goddamn sold votes. This excavator guy from Norway sucks honestly. I've voted for Estonia, it's absolutely lovable girl and song and performance overall. Thousand times better than Norway :(

Uh oh, looks like Finland's all-time Eurovision vote record is about to be broken by Norway. :-(
