2011 Eurovision Semi Final #2

[MikiAndoFan#1]

I'm loving it.

[Jenya]

This is actually a good song by Belarus, but why these lyrics??

Maybe Lukashenko decided to try his hand at songwriting? :shuffle:

[fragoletta]

It really is too bad this song is good because this is propaganda that really has no place in Eurovision. :(

I find it funny that someone would declare their love for their country in a totally different language :rofl:
But I really like the tune :slinkaway

[MichaelK]

Belarus ... :yikes: :scream:
Bring back the butterflies!!!!

Nooooo! :scream:

[Garden Kitty]

Is there some political background here I'm missing? (and if there is any, I'm missing it).

[my little pony]

I love Belarus!

maybe my favorite eurovision entry ever!

[miffy]

Well I thought it was great :P Backing vocals really worked well live.

[Nmsis]

I actually find Belarus'act quite "guarded".
I would expect fire breathers, chains and some tiger in a cage with this kind of song.
:rofl:

This is actually a good song by Belarus, but why these lyrics??
Well they first wanted to send a song that was an ode to the USSR, but they were not allowed to send the song, so they wrote this one instead, which is just as :rolleyes: and :shuffle:

[miffy]

They did probably write I love Belarus in 2 minutes. It was their 3rd choice of song wasn't it? (After the 2 'Belarussia' ones were disqualified). And it's so catchy.

[MichaelK]

I love Latvia's song, hope they make it!

:rofl:

They should have hired you as choreographer!

After Belarus self-luuuurve Latvia seems too chaste.

[itsartemis]

Whee Denmark! :cheer2:

[Nmsis]

Latvia is cute and very decent but kind of generic.
And 2 of the best performances of the night are to follow, so ...

[Jenya]

Jedward's hairstyle has spread to Denmark! :eek:
