France FRANCE 2014 - Twin Twin - Moustache

[Franco]

These days there is so much talk about phoenices, undoers and runners, and not so much about moustaches. But this is still the number 2 in my personal scoreboard, so good luck for tonight! A top5 placement for Twin Twin would be highly deserved.

i wonder if ESC is popular in France? is it?

ESC is ranked 999th on 1000 in the ranking of the most important things in France, just before the British elections.

Plus this year, The Voice is aired on TF1 at the same moment than ESC...

Indeed, the ratings are sinking. This year, there is zero promotion. They do the minimum and give the minimum, and then claim that everybody hate us and the voting is politic... And bla bla bla...

it's so hard that more and more fans, including me, would rather seeing France withdrawing than bearing that...

As for tonight, I really hope we don't make bottom-5... But I'm not hopeful at all... Though i like them, they are nice.

And Le Plus grand cabaret du monde on France 2. And France Télé prefer advert on Sébastien than on Eurovision... And football on Canal+.
At least everyone is fed up with the Voice...

Is the official last name of Patrick is Biyik or just something he uses?

 

[PashonFrut]

HA! I never noticed that before
'Biyik' = moooostache in Turkish

I pity you, my dear neighbour. Even the RTBF does a little promotion and adverts it as a familial event...

And "pour retourner le couteau dans la plaie" ("to turn the knife in the wound" ), this year, even the BBC has changed its mind and could pretend on a Top 5...

This song is just so much fun! No chance of winning but definitely entertaining, especially with so many ballads this year.

At least it has gone better as the new commentator is mad about Eurovision (he speaks about it all year long in his TV game ! ) and he will go with Natasha St-Pier, whom I expect to be nice with the contestants as she was on that stage.

The problem is that during the 00s, as I said, there was a succession of commentators who only used to laugh at the contestants and their countries. It resulted on several pleas of embassies, especially Albania...

And the press is always very harsh against Eurovision, only spreading clichés and wrong statements. Yesterday on France 3, they teased all day long Eurovision by saying that we will see a bunch of people who can't sing and we will be hapy to laugh at them But apart from Russia, who won't be able to sing tonight ?

I mean, the French entrants every year are the bravest ! Because they know they face a waterfall of insults...

 

[ParadiseES]

I completely ignored this entry since the moment it was chosen, but now I've checked it and..... OMG their live performance is really REALLY amateurish and bad :?

 

[toinou03]

what I told you. I just read an article on the French Huffington Post claiming that we'll never win because we don't have friend-voting, and that we can't afford it, basing on meaningless statistics (that conclude that Malta and Poland are the luckiest countries in Eurovision 3 )

And... they give us a great piece of advice : we have to follow the example of Italy and stop entering that masquarade... 3

Sorry guys, you're just 4 years late

We have so great journalists there... Even uncapable to check a Wikipedia page...
