a 2cd collection of all the songs from the 2008 eurovision song contest. 43 entries in total. a chanceto hear all the songs again. and these are worth listening to if you're a serious fan of the contest because on occasion a song can lose something in the performance and it comes over better on cd.
dics one contains:
andorra: a great song that alas didnt get to the final
albania: a decent song and a good singer
armenia: feisty up tempo stuff and very catchy
azerbaijan: a nice tune but you can barely hear the words
bosnia & herzegovenia: a song that had a very daft performance but without that it's quite good
belgium: a pleasant little number
bulgaria: funky music but not much of a song
belarus: decent pop music but nothing special
switzerland: a superb song that alas didnt reach the final
cyprus: pleasant but not memorable
czech republic: decent pop
germany: nice but a bit low key
denmark: over performed but a good pleasant song
estonia: a rather unfunny comedy one that makes no sense if you don't speak the language
spain: a catchy little ditty. you'll either like it or hate it
finland: good hard rock
france: pleasant but a bit unmemorable
united kingdom: not bad but nothing special
georgia: a nice song but it never quite grabs
greece: excellent catchy song
croatia: nice music although the rap section gets in the way
disc two:
hungary: pleasant but not desperately memorable ballad
ireland: this is the turkey! dreadfully unfunny attempt at humour
israel: good song and good singer
iceland: excellent rock music and very well sung
lithuania: amazingly strong singer. good tune
latvia: a fun shanty you'll either love or hate. I loved it.
moldova: nice but doesnt quite work
montenegro: okay song but nothing special
macedonia: a song that grows on you after a few listens
malta: lively stuff but the lyrics can barely be heard
netherlands: great singer good song
norway: same as above
poland: good song but not the strongest of singers
portugal: operatic stuff and powerful at points
romania: a nice duet for a good ballad
serbia: a good ballad
russia: a good song and an excellent singer. the contest winner
sweden: superb singer but a good rather than great song
slovenia: catchy tune and great singer. another that unfortunately didnt make the final
san marino: a decent tune but it doesnt stick in the mind
turkey: excellent rock
ukraine: strong song and brilliant singer
but that's just my opinion. if you want a record of the contest to cherish, then this will do the job
