Not bad, decent chances for the Latvians I reckon.

And the Lady pirates are looking good.

Im not even going to look at the screen engineer and take this on its musical merits....

Holy hell they aint messing about...lol its pirates...aggressive tone to it. well they are pirates after all...chorus...oh fcuk this is catchy...im a pirate..nooooo with a hi hi hoo...no dont steal the show...rats this is catchy, im sitting hear desperate to hear the chorus again...hhi hi hoo I have to look at this...ooo some pirate dancing....i cant see this not going close. 16/1. Interesting...big finish? no thats a terrible finish. Pirates need to have explosions

my favorite by a mile. love those bouncy europop beats

wolves of the sea gets my vote

[AnothrSpacecat]

'pirates are all we can be' thats a great line, you almost feel sorry for them but at the same time you know theyre quite happy being wolves on their own patch

could you imagine being attacked at sea by that lot with the tunes blarring?!

AAAARRRGGhhhhhhhhhh

[Beanie]

Yes that's more like it. Quality Eurovision pop with a nice wee theme there from Latvia, showing us brits how its done. Infact it wouldnt even work if it was Brits, its the fact that they are Latvian pirates that makes it work so well.

Yep, love it. Go on yersels chaps, Pirates are all you can be, so true.

Only problem wiill be the problem that the Swiss had last year - can they pull it off live. Swiss couldnt, if the Latvians cant they'll prob go out in the semi as well. If they can, anything is possible.

Agree a little about the ending, altho it does have a key change, but coulda done more.

*BUMP*

Currently 34.0 to back on Betfair, people looking for 48.0, cant see this not being a decent trading opportunity. Certainly going by the large number of sappy or subtle gimmick entries (as opposed to this gimmick fest) this year I cant see this not standing out quite a bit on both nights.

ALL ABOARD!

Gutted! The live performance is shite.

[MickeyPaul]

Worse than the vampires last year and one of the worst I've ever heard. It's like Rod Jane & Freddy for the 21st century but I think even 5 year olds would give this shit the finger. It's fucking shocking. Bomb Latvia.

[Winrew]

Im with Mickey on this one , send the planes .....

[MickeyPaul]

Gutted! The live performance is shite.

Made worse by the fact they're actually alive. God. It's so bad. It's like a group of twats have got up at the local disco for 'a laugh'. It's Butlin's redcoats rejects even. Jesus. I'm getting really stressed by this.

[Beanie]

You treating yourself to one song a night Mick? You might just get through them in time for 2009 at this rate.

[MickeyPaul]

Hardly a treat is it? I find it a challenge to do two back to back but I'll go look for another.

[MickeyPaul]

Seems Gerry and I are in agreement on this one. I love you Gerry! And your violent ways!

My kids aged 7 and 11 love this song. Obviously can't win, but might sneak into the final.

btw does anyone else have to sign in everytime they make a post?
