Serbia won the Eurovision Song Contest in 2007.

I like pop music and the chorus isn't very strong. I would put many other songs at this eurovision above Jedward. They performed it ok and it was well presented on TV (camerawork, background) but the chorus was flat and relatively monotonous.

Yes, they were. The Blue song is not bad but their live performance was, many artists struggle with this aspect sadly. Blue are the most credible artist of the two, they can actually sing, have talent and credible success.

There seemed to be sound problems, the voices just didn't seem to really come out well on TV and the camerawork seemed a mess as well.

I think he was quite a bit better. Good catchy song and decent dancing. His performance in the semi may have been better though.

And someone mentioned Serbia, yeh not a bad song. Actually it was quite a good year for songs overall. Don't judge it on Jedward or the gimmicky Ukraine entry.

Well then you obviously have a very poor taste in music because none of the other songs even come close to being good. It was all trash, this was the one standout which actually has a chance of being a bona fide hit. You can bet none of the others will achieve anything of the like, outside of their respective countries.

I mean seriously...

Serbia's song was great. Sounded like something taken right out of the 60s, but in Serbian.

Yes, good point, I also couldn't hear the Blue performance. This is not a fault of Blue.

But a credit to the producers, I agree.

Wrong. I really do think Lipstick is a great pop song, as can be seen from my last.fm charts.

I am not doubting that you like the song. I meant that you probably expected haters but f**k it anyway!
