Sounght, the owner of my soul
Did I fall fight into the spot?
Resisting the subject of my passion
Angered and shrunken

Resisting, resisting, resisting...
Raise me
Don’t make me cry
Where is the love
You’re so proud of
Raise me
Don’t make me cry
Don’t waste my time
With fake dreams
Sougt, theowner of my soul
Did I fall right into the spot?
Resisting, the subject of my passion
Angered and shrunken
Soungt, the owner of my soul
Did I fall right into the spot?
Resisting, resisting, resisting...
Raise me
Don’t make me cry
Where is the love
You’re so proud of

Half sane, half crazy I am
Sane all around me, crazy, one side of me

Where is the love
You’re so proud of

Bitch Engla:

That 'fabio' is from Cyprus and has nothing to do with me. He even posts in Greek here. And for your (poor) knowledge, that's a language I don't speak. Anyway, you don't deserve any kind of explanation for me. F**k yourself!

You're right. You almost has to scroll up to look at the headline to remind yourself what the actual subject is.

Fabio Deluca: What is wrong with you and paranoia?!? Me and Princess agl a not the same pesn, and FYI I have been on this website for 4 years, you can check that if you take a look at my id numer!? Next time before your schizophrenia attacks check the stats!

It took them a while, but I think they have sorted the problems out, by the the looks of things.

Hopefully it doesn't happen when things start to get more exciting!

- Kelan KW

Yeah, its more likely to be Greece, or even Ireland if they qualify!! ;)
And the scoreboard looks quite good this year I think, the scoreboard last year gave me a headache with all of those really bright colours!!!

SO PEOPLE, CLICK ON "NEWS" ON THE HOMEPAGE FOR UPDATED STORIES!!!!!!

Are you wondering why ESCtoday hasn't got a new articles? And this one seems to be the only newest one?

Well I think there is something wrong with their homepage (at least for me there is). Any one with the same problem should click the icon "more news", which is near the end of the articles shown on the homepage. (I'm sure you know where I am saying). There are around another 6 articles to be looked at!!!

Aaaah I see! So in fact Charlotte wasn't that horrible at all, her words have been changed.
Thanks for sorting that out! ;)

Jonny K:

Sorry you got into another Swedish argument. I admire you. You seem so calm and you know how to reason with people who are upset. Tack! :) You say you don't like the things Charlotte said but does anyone here but the Swedish speaking people know what she did say. Her words were not translated in the clip. And it wasn't all that bad. The thing is that she should have commented on the Slovene song and not on the video, as Fabio Deluca points out. Had the panel watched Alenka's live performance instead of the preview video this would never have happened. But I'm not defending her.

(Charlotte said that seeing Alenka as the leading lady in this "session" made her sick, she wondered why she didn't have a stand-in, then Alenka could stand next to the couple and sing)

Yes!!!! Thankyou ;) (Tack!!! :))

Since this is the last article, I will post my comment here. What is wrong with Esctoday? It hasn't been updated for ages.


Princess Engla [47430]
Sat 17 May 2008 10:22:40

@Jonny K: AMEN!!!!!!! I totally agree with you!


Jonny K [46883]
Sat 17 May 2008 10:20:02

OK I will settle this arguement!

What Charlotte said about Alenka was out of order and wrong, however we all say bad things and those who insult Charlotte are just as bad as Charlotte insulting Alenka.
So basically, Charlotte shouldn't have said it, and it shouldn't have been made such a big deal.
Besides, we all say things that we wish we hadn't, and Charlottes co-presenters were just as bad for agreeing with her. And do you really think Charlotte meant it????? Ofcourse not, she won't actually think Alenka is a porn star will she!.
And anyway it was over a year ago!!!

Thankyou ;) (Tack!!!)

Aljaz, I think we should ignore this 'blonde bimbo' who can't make a decent comment about other singers when herself she is singing that oldfashioned song in that shiny little dress with an average voice, who does she think she is, compared to Alenka she is nothing!


Jonny K [46883]
Sat 17 May 2008 09:57:42

OH MY GOD!!! You lot are still argueing . . . . . . . . . how silly!!! :L


Princess Engla [47430]
Sat 17 May 2008 09:51:40

@Aljaz_: It was very bad by Charlotte to insulting Alenka! But that don´t give people in here the right to inslulting Charlotte! Gosh it was ONE year ago. Get a life! Now we should talk about this years ESC, not about what happen last year!

Do you think it´s right to post the video in the big slovenian websites??? To make people vote against Charlotte personally and not for the song and performance!
