That I will support on behalf of the "trnc" to save them embarrassment by taking part in that silly contest.! If the
No Talent Eurovision Song Contest was to have any credibility and all the nations that participate in it, then all the songs should be sung in the native language of that participating country whether they will win or not. Winning isn't everything, but showing the rest of the world what your nation and culture is all about should be the main aim. When Turkey won couple of years ago with what looked like a RAP music, that music did not represent the Turkish Culture nor did it represent 99% of the Turkish Population. Totally dishonouring ones nation by singing in a language and style that is not your own nations language.!


Greece won singing in Greek I guess :shock: I thought there were only blind people in South Cyprus.They are apparently deaf as well. And Greece won thanx to copying Turkish winning formula. Thank you Paparizou for admitting it.


The only time you managed to win the Eurovision was when we Cypriots decided to give you 7 points, without which you wouldn't have won it and would have ended 2nd. Be nice if you want to ever win it again!

That is because you always say thank you, and mean it. Like the time you needed electricity from the RoC, and as soon as your problem was solved, you went ahead and lightened the "flag" on the mountain as a form of a thanking gesture.

Shame we didn't give it to you for free. After all, it costs us nothing to produce it, since we use the mazut we pump out from the oil wells we have in the south.

You could have deducted from the benefit you have sucked out of being the recognized part of Cyprus and all the international aid you consumed on our behalf, but that said we are very grateful..thank you.
