No it actually came down to politics - welcome to the twisted world of Eurovision

Haha. I'm actually a bit relieved we didn't win.

I don't know if we could pull off the hosting duties.

Really? is that what happens? The winner hosts the next year? As in Australia could host Eurovision?? How does that work? What is Eurovision? Why are Aussies even in it in the first place?

Eligibility to participate is not determined by geographic inclusion within the geographical limits of the continent of Europe, despite the naming (because it started there). I'm assuming "Eurovision" is more like a brand name. It has to do more with broadcasting rules and limitations (and obviously Aussies paid to be able to participate).

 

 

Congrats to Aussies for taking the 2nd place, just above UK. :tumbsup:

What is all this chit chat????

 

Right what actually happened is that Australia were 'invited' to join the 60th anniversary last year cos Aussies are basically massive fans of the event and have a viewing audience of about 3 million - believe it or not.

 

Euro took the decision to invite then back agsin this year cos they saw it as bridge building and a possible move to making it more of a global event.

 

If Oz had won they would have co hosted it with a chosen euro partner otherwise it would have been broadcast in the middle of the night for the rest of Europe.

 

OK ?

 

For the record this year was a massive disappointment after 2 pretty good years in 2014 & 2015 - nearly every song was poor and for the first time i actually think some of them were miming which is unforgivable.

Buddy, I was trying to explain that Eurovision is not a geo-restricted institution as its name may insinuates.

 

 

Being probably one of the most watched non-sports events ( I don't have any statistics to support my claim, so I may be wrong) it's obviously a lucrative event for Murdoch and similar media proprietors.

 

 

Actually, the only chit chat is yours (the whole politics thing you started) :tumbsup:

 

Of course politics plays a major role in events like this, otherwise the majority of the composers would sing these stuff in their bathroom. :tumbsup: And I'm loosely adopting here the broad definition of "politics" as it was first mentioned in Aristotle "Politics". According to this, politics is "the things concerning the polis". Polis is the citizens of a city. :tumbsup:

Well at the end of the day its only politics which decides the winner not song quality.

 

And i was just explaining that Aus did not 'pay' to get in.

 

Tis all.

I never wrote that they had to pay to participate.

 

 

"Like other European participants, SBS has paid a hefty participation fee, on top of its broadcasting fee, to ensure that our entrant, Guy Sebastian, can go straight into the final round, along with other countries such as France, Britain, Spain and Italy, who are given an automatic berth in the coveted final."

    • Doubtful. Most fans will favour Slippery and New Jersey. Hell, for many years 7800 was considered a weak album by many. The first and second album would only be chosen by the absolute die hards.
    • Roll On Down the Highway-BTO
    • I feel like the fans voting would result in more songs from the first two albums.
    • Looks like a pretty nice compilation to me. That said, this sort of stuff doesn't interest me at all anymore.  There was probably a time it would've but now it's just too easy to make your own playlists in spotify to bother.  
    • Thankfully newer songs are at a minimum, but I really can't see fans voting for stuff from the new album even if they were the two best songs on that album
    • Final track listing revealed. Time to see if it is a genuine vote or the band/label putting in shit from the newer albums DISC 1 1 Livin' On A Prayer リヴィン・オン・ア・プレイヤー 2 It's My Life イッツ・マイ・ライフ 3 Born To Be My Baby ボーン・トゥ・ビー・マイ・ベイビー 4 These Days ジーズ・デイズ 5 In These Arms イン・ジーズ・アームズ 6 Always オールウェイズ 7 Have a Nice Day ハヴ・ア・ナイス・デイ 8 Runaway 夜明けのランナウェイ 9 You Give Love a Bad Name 禁じられた愛 10 I'll Be There for You アイル・ビー・ゼア・フォー・ユー 11 Keep The Faith キープ・ザ・フェイス 12 Bed Of Roses ベッド・オブ・ローゼズ 13 Bad Medicine バッド・メディシン 14 Wanted Dead or Alive ウォンテッド・デッド・オア・アライヴ 15 Blood on Blood ブラッド・オン・ブラッド 16 Legendary レジェンダリー DISC 2 1 Never Say Goodbye ネヴァー・セイ・グッドバイ 2 Someday I'll Be Saturday Night サムデイ・アイル・ビー・サタデイ・ナイト 3 She Don't Know Me シー・ドント・ノウ・ミー 4 Lay Your Hands On Me レイ・ユア・ハンズ・オン・ミー 5 Dry County ドライ・カウンティ 6 This Ain' t A Love Song ディス・エイント・ア・ラヴ・ソング 7 Wild Is the Wind ワイルド・イズ・ザ・ウィンド 8 Tokyo Road TOKYOロード 9 Everyday エヴリデイ 10 I Believe アイ・ビリーヴ 11 I'd Die for You アイド・ダイ・フォー・ユー 12 Living Proof リヴィング・プルーフ 13 Bounce バウンス 14 We Weren't Born To Follow ウィー・ワーント・ボーン・トゥ・フォロー 15 Something for the Pain サムシング・フォー・ザ・ペイン 16 One Wild Night ワン・ワイルド・ナイト DISC 3 1 Raise Your Hands レイズ・ユア・ハンズ 2 Living in Sin リヴィング・イン・シン 3 Thank You for Loving Me サンキュー 4 Last Man Standing ラスト・マン・スタンディング 5 Undivided アンディヴァイデッド 6 Lost Highway ロスト・ハイウェイ 7 Wild In The Streets ワイルド・イン・ザ・ストリーツ 8 Just Older ジャスト・オールダー 9 Because We Can ビコーズ・ウィー・キャン 10 This House Is Not For Sale ディス・ハウス・イズ・ノット・フォー・セール 11 Who Says You Can't Go Home フー・セズ・ユー・キャント・ゴー・ホーム 12 Captain Crash & The Beauty Queen From Mars キャプテン・クラッシュ&ザ・ビューティー・クイーン・フロム・マーズ 13 Only Lonely オンリー・ロンリー 14 I Am アイ・アム 15 Burning For Love バーニング・フォー・ラヴ 16 Hey God ヘイ・ゴッド 17 Stick To Your Guns スティック・トゥ・ユア・ガンズ 18 Any Other Day
