Right did any of you Europeans see the God awful interval show in this excuse for a contest. Right for those of you who didn't it was cheesy pop band AQUA...yes Aqua AND SAfri Duo, now what respect i had for Safri Duo was completely lost when they came on a played their bongo's to Aqua's Doctor Jones or something like that. Also the two presenters doing every link in rhyme, whilst very obviously reading of the autocue VERY BADLY, just topped of the whole thing.
Also Ireland were relegated from next years contest because they didn't get enough points this year , eventhough they won it like 4 years in a row in the 1990's.
Anyways, there you go, peace

Holland finished 18th
*phew*
Anyways: the performance of Safri Duo was the only bright light in the whole Eurovisie Songfestival show.
These guys ain't trance you know: they are drummers
Of course they did make some trance songs, but it doesn't mean it's the only thing they do. In my opnion they cheer up every live performance. If it's Aqua or a Johan Gielen set, that doesn't matter.
For their own stuff: they are way to commercial, but who can blame them. Like I said: they are not just about trance.

Iceland tied for last place with Norway.... Ouch!
You know they should goto judges, not the phone in.. Its so damn political as has already been said. Why not let a panel of 12 judges selected from the music industry and from around the world give points instead of the individual countries.
