To be honest, I never heard of them until I saw Eurovision. And when I saw them...well their music performance reminded me of some kind of insane commercial for Red Bull. Admittedly the song was catchy but I think the Dustin the Turkey was a better entry a while back in terms of originality. The fun thing is that my country gave Jedward 12 points so there must be some merit in the song...
But hey, we sent Eric Saade and he was not that much better IMHO (pity he could not break all four glass panels). And we made third . |

Yes, they were. The Blue song is not bad but their live performance was, many artists struggle with this aspect sadly. Blue are the most credible artist of the two, they can actually sing, have talent and credible success.
Fair play to Jedward because they are good at what they do, which is to entertain and they had a good run on X Factor and gone onto make a wad of money. They can not sing though and their hair is embarrasing. Some will say they represent everything that is wrong with music at the moment. |

When I heard Lipstick I just wanted to hurt both of them in the worst ways possible. The only reason why I watched Eurovision in the first place was this song:
which was perfect except for that horrible attempt of rapping.

They have more in their bank accounts than myself and in this day and age of facile media attention who can blame them? Probably set up financially for life already.
I think adidasss is enjoying winding you lot up and you all took the bait

Wrong. I really do think Lipstick is a great pop song, as can be seen from my last.fm charts.
