I think really famous bands are not to interested in entering the competition. They don't want to risk their name in a mediocre contest, which is not really watched by the potential buyers, but by kids, old people or freaks, who just want to have a laugh.
Katrina and the Waves for example entered the competition after a couple of more or less unsuccesful years - and won easily.
Jemini was crap, I have to aggree

Allegedly, Jemini (UK) were sabbotaged: they claim their monitors (the speakers they use to hear themselves singing while on stage) were deliberately turned off. Russia claims similar. Who knows though? I know from experience that playing without a monitor is near impossible, so if true, it might explain why the UK's entry sounded like a cat in a food processor. But "nul point" is quite simply far more interesting than the bland 4th place we usually get.

Alf Poier (Austria) today expressed his disappointment in a press conference ... "Europe has a bad taste ... this is a shame for Europe. I should have won, because my song was the only on with quality"

Long live Alf Poier
P.S.: The UK song was one of the biggest piece of @@@@ I have ever heard - so please don't argue that it was political.
The U.K. have a history in these things.
We got no points.
We will send Elton John next time.
The point is:we took part.
The spirit is to take part.
If we want to win,they will send me next year.

Originally posted by Jacko007I second Darious. in fact, we even suggested him on the night for next year: did anyone elso notice just how many euro male singers look like a fat Darious? (with or without a little mustache). It seems he has the ideal euro look, and with his mindlessly dull pop songs, has the required musical touch too!
i agree, dont you think Darious would be the perfect aswer to the solution. if he wins then we win and if he lo0oses then we get rid of him forever😀😀😀😀😀
