Hello All!

I've just been talking to Malin on DeviantArt, and we were thinking that it would be AWESOME if Loreena wrote a song for us, and then we entered Eurovision with it and completely blew all the other contestants out of the water! (The officials don't have to know that I'm not really Swedish, he he! I'll bleach my hair...)

So, we want your ideas for a name for our duo, and Mark, do you think that there may even a tiny possibility of this happening? We'd pay her, of course!

I'll be very interested to see what sort of discussion comes out of this thread!...

BIG HUG from Jesse

Hello all! What a lovely surprise. I've been away from regular internet access over the Christmas/New Year's break, so it's lovely to be back! Cool

Yes, Anxious I've had and am still having some musical education! I've extented my abilities recently; where before I played Piano and Ukulele, I'm now taking singing lessons and trying to produce a half-decent sound out of the Tin Whistle I got for my birthday last year!

And yes, I'm sure you could join me and Malin! Although of course we wouldn't be able to call ourselves Jessmalin then Razzer...

Elizabeth Tudor, I wasn't suggesting that Loreena herself actually participate in the contest - I wouldn't imagine that she's eligible being from Canada! You are completely right; Eurovision is TRASH, which is why entering with a song written by someone as talented as Loreena would surely be a strong contender!

Yes, the vast majority of Eurovision acts are thrashy, overly-flamboyant or the very definition of "cheesy," but it is the biggest music contest in the world and winning or even just making the finals would look GREAT on a budding performing artist's resumé.

Actually, I love watching it! It's HILARIOUS!Big Grin

Btw, I thought Celine Dion represented Switzerland...?Confused

Unforseeable Silence, well, if there are any updates, they will be in several years when I move to Europe, but you'll all hear about it here first!

Finally, did anyone hear the UK entry in last year's contest? Corniest song EVER!Razzer

I just had this "crazy" thought...
How about joining your names?
Jessmalin.
I know! It's not original!
Sorry.

*quietly trying to creep out of your brains again*

Good luck and keep us all updated!

I do believe that would be one of the principal reasons for why I believe Loreena herself would not neccesary show up very enthusiastic - especially in the stage of the very beginning. But let's just simply remember one of the best examples when the wonderful and more or less similar to Loreena's music through the same beautiful expressivity music compositions band, Secret Garden, which surprisngly took the good decision to take part of the contest and the victoriuos song was played for them eventually. Never say never is one of Loreena's magical rules very well stated on her official website.

Hi Jesse,

I thik that no one is interested in this discussion because - well. Eurovision and Loreena are two things that cannot go together, no matter how you turn it. Eurovision is Trash, Loreena is Class. :P I know that Celine Dion participated representing France, but I don't think Loreena would ever do such a thing.
If you want Sweden to win, ask Mr. Andersson and Mr. Ulvaeus. Big Grin Big
                        Grin Big Grin As far as I know, they're always after money, money, money!

Btw, Germany is hosting the ESC next year... I feel so honoured... not. Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin

Cheers, Anni

I also think you could make your own song.
I think I remember you having an education in Music, Jesse?
