Very true - last years winner at the start looked a little ropey

How did she manage to flick her hair exactly the same way so many times in a row :confused:

Why are all of them lip syncing? I don't see why some of them wont.

Are you serious?

Course it's live, that was the point of Eurovision, TV broadcast engineers wanted to show they could broadcast and event live throughout Europe to bring everyone together - check out Wiki for some details

Yes I'm serious. They are going through them at lightning pace. There used to be a lot more faffing about in between. They can't do the changeover that quick unless there are two stages or someting.

They're not lip syncing - can't you remember several years ago the pigs-ear we made of it by being completely off-key - do you think it was recorded that badly off key? Almost nobody's in key - if they were lip syncing why would they record it out of key?

This is the point the Viewers should have buttons to instigate Machine gun fire.

aslco · 16 May 2009 at 20:57

singing has been so poor they cant be lip syncing. Our singer is great though

This year they've limited the amount of people they can have on stage - no more massive groups of supporting wallies on stage. With only a small amount of people to run off-stage the changes can be done quickly.
