O'Emperor

We know there is more to life than the music of the Bunnymen. Talk about those other bands here.

I went to see O'EMPEROR at the weekend in Galway in Ireland

It was excellent and it was great to see a band who enjoy performing and have passion about their music. I got to speak to the keyborad player and drummer afterwards and they where really nice to speak to.

check out their site

Would love to catch them live. Don't really know much of their stuff but have really liked anything I've heard.

This one?

Be a hit in the Spanish, Portuguese, Israeli, Balkan and chavy British nightclubs in the summer no doubt. Sounds like Rihanna. Probably too polished (a bit like a polished turd, however) to win.

Ellie Goulding has dyed her hair for the German entry? She's hot so she wins.

Jedward are representing Ireland????

To be fair, my little theory was not including the Eurovision as part of the barometer of Irish music :cry:

Couldn't stomach looking at the clips at the mo. Bet the Finnish one is great though :wink:
That German one is an insipid little oik.

Yeah, but she's a rather sweet insipid little oik for a German. That's why she'll get my vote.

She won last year. Can the Germans have the same act twice in a row?

Ya. Special dispensation from the board due to having the ugliest PM in Europe and no sense of humour, apparently.
