Wogan will have a field day

Sic · 21 Apr 2006 at 16:18

hahahaha, amazing!

William · 21 Apr 2006 at 16:24

Oh its so going to be watched.

Edit:

I have just heard, Hard Rock Hallelujah.... and oh boy Wogan is going to rip them apart.

I never understand the eurovision, is there a rule where you can't have a band that has had a real recording contract?

What is to stop Iceland getting Bjork to do it and just pwning the competition, or Moldova bringing Ozone in?

Numa Numa Yei....

I can't wait to hear these guys play!

Abraham · 21 Apr 2006 at 16:39

i really like the song
saw them at download but only about 5 mins was watching someone else

we could see the death of wogan live on tv
because i cant imagine he wont ridicule them
and they will eat him if he does

the stage show and the songs kick ass, and i really hope they dont get ripped apart in this!

the devil is a loser and he's my bitch < thats one of their lyrics, so they arent taking everything so seriously. its all good fun

Shall we start taking bets on what Wogan's first riptake is going to be?

Royality · 21 Apr 2006 at 19:44

Who is the guy doing the English song? Is it that guy on the myspace site?

Wouldn't have thought so. The best singer in the world Cliff Richard was in it twice. Katrina & The Waves was another and I'm sure the list goes on.

I was watching Lordi the other night on a Download special.
The singer says it takes 3 hours to get made up :eek:
