This was his night......Sadly

So we sadly have to admit that the night belonged to Greece. We now are very afraid that we have to return to Greece next year and for all the wrong reasons this performance from Sakis will almost certainly clean up tomorrow night.

Now don't get us wrong we don't hate Sakis, far from it we actually quite like him BUT this song is so boring and dull.........but he does transform it on stage.

The only thing that can really stop this now is the jurys all going for the same song, but the chances of that happening are slim....



So how did our predictions go. Well Daniel did well getting 9/10 and Mike only managed a poor 7/10. For us as well it was great to see Ukraine going through as during the show we both agreed that we thought she would miss out on a place in the final. The "fans" here really hate Svetlana and that puts a smile on my face.

The other great thing was to see Denmark go through as even though it's not the greatest song in the world it means that there is a least some Irish connection in the final.

And what about Ireland???? To be fair they performed their best last night but in reality it was probably never going to happen for them. A shame really but next year this might make RTE sit up a take notice of what get's results at ESC these days. For a good example they need look no further than this guy below.........

And for us he was the REAL star last night. The guy has had a really tough time in Moscow with horrible fans being nasty to him in Euroclub, horrible Ruskie camera crews being nasty to him and even after all that he shone last night. Let's hope this is not the last we have seen of Dimitri

And so we left and went to Euroclub, hoping that it might be getting better BUT no it's still rubbish and we were home in bed by 3 a.m. Our Eurovision partying reputation is in tatters this year.....oh well I guess we must be getting old.....
