I loved the Lordi song Thanks!!
Okay here be my votes
Sweeden..nope no Sweeden in Ohio?
Cute but I really need the lyrics as other wise it is just kinda no feeling for me..I just need words I can understand.
Maybe she has wind machines as she always farts or just smells bad?
rating: 5.9
Switzerland
This seems more of a political ploy to gain votes and seems like cheating!
What the heck was it called if not Band Aid..crap I can not remember and what the heck is a amphemic ballad???
Oh the song...what are we all givin a little of..I give a lot and for free!
Is this peace through sex? COOL!

Norway
Total acidy alien ethnic space song I LOVE it!
And what the heck it that a Mouth Harp in the background at one point?
Oh man that is way cool using strings and a mouth Harp way awesome.
rating 8.0
Love from Zilla!
I love it as I proved myself wrong as I loved Norway but no idea what it said..so I was wrong on my Sweeden comment.

Tigger's Eurovision 2006 Song Scoring Card
**********************************************
Scale: 1-10 (Ten being best)
**********************************************
Song #1 - Sweden
Tigger Score = 7.4
O.K. when I think of a typical European pop song..this is it. Why does every group that comes from Sweden sound like an ABBA rip off. I just don't get it? Is ABBA so fused in my brain with anything that comes from the country Sweden. I think about ABBA when I go to IKEA. How sad is that. Anyways this song was O.K. Good dance song, great performance, but nothing that makes any great impression.
Song #2 - Switzerland
Tigger Score = 8.7
I really liked this song! Great use of different voices and I know this might sound like a cliche, but a really great message, World Peace. It's a little cheesy...but it left me feeling good.
Song #2a - Band Aid
Tigger Score = 10!
Bob...you do not know how impressed I was with the United Kingdom when they released Band Aid. That was the Christmas hit of the season. That was a lovely song. I know the whole Geldof bullshit, but it was such a warm human gesture. That was a major hit here in America. I can honestly tell you, that song was so much better than our cheap American rip-off, We Are The World. That song still makes me cringe.
Song #3 - Norway
Tigger Score = 8.2
Very cool song with some trippy World music flavors. I enjoyed this one too. Reminded me very slightly of Dead Can Dance. I don't know how a song like this will pan out at Eurovision. Might be a little extreme for the average listener. I hope they get better than a zero this time.

Oh...almost forgot.....Catherine, dear...
I left a little surprise and dedication to you on my blog:

heehehe :)
Canada Votes!!!
England - 10+++++++++
English accent - 10+++++ (just cause I scored the Irish accent last voting round)
Sweden - 3.7
Nope, didn't like it, in fact, I got a bit bored by it, it just didn't move me.
Switzerland - 4.7
Well, I didn't like this one either but out of the three I would have to score it highest as it did hold my interest for longer than the other two.
Norway - 2.2
I thought it was Christmas listening to the beginning, that set the tone for me, nope, nope, and nope.
Des hated all the songs and you were completely correct in assuming that I am not voting for him when I vote, he howled with laughter when you said that!
You are both GREAT pod casters and I love listening to you both, thank you very much for all the time and effort it must take to put a podcast together, it is very much appreciated!!!!!
Love you!

Hi Tigger:
Thanks for the dedication, I did watch the video through...........but I think I'd rather have a root canal without freezing rather than watch another Bjork video it was that painful!
Guess I'm just not deep enough to appreciate her "music".
Still, that's the best thing about our pretty little world, everyone is entitled to their own opinions!
Go ahead and take as many shots over this as you like......I liked the Bay City Rollers when I was in school!
:o)
Happy trails my friend!
