> Aerosmith's JADED.Just terrible!

EVERYBODY knew that MONTHS ago.

> I am sure it will be in final.

I don't think it will make the final (it does nothing for me), but I won't mind if it does qualify, as long as it keeps a less deserving song (like Malta) out.

In my big poll Georgia has 4th place, but it was 2nd. I am sure it will be in final. :) Georgian language is strange but il like it.

She'll not win, but I think she'll qualify. However it will the not qualify directly for 2008. It's just that we have a whole lot of better songs that will be at the top positions ( Serbia, Belarus, Ukraine, Sweden, Bosnia Herzegovina...)! Georgia might end up 17th in the final, who knows ;-)

She is singing in English but she actually is not capable of speaking English?
Well, I don't think Georgia will win and I don't hope so because there so many better songs! Sopho seems really nice but the song has no highlight and I'm not feeling comfortable listening to it!
I cannot believe that some people are considering this as a winner...

But she is in fact very talented and I think taht we might be surprised, but this will get into the finals:-)
