Alf Poier is my new hero Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

Curse the evil gods for me missing his Eurovision performance! Luckily I managed to download a video of him performing his song in the Austrian finals. He was robbed of his victory, I tell you, robbed! 6th place is not enough! I was particularily enthralled by the younger back-up singer and her moshing.

Clearly this man has shown the way. Eurovision contests would be so much better if everyone had his attitude. And I can surely say that his act will be the only one I'll remember from the 2003 Eurovision contests. I might remember that Turkey won, Belgium almost won and UK was complete crap, but Alf Poier will inhabit a little wittle cloud in my head for some time.

Especially Finland should take note, except go a step further. Finland has traditionally produced only crap, so next year we should just go and nominate Lordi. Victory would be the only option.

ALF! Doesn't his raw animal magnetism simply seep from this picture?

not everyone. this would become too boring soon. one or two performers per competition, but not too many. we also need singers taking the UK part. how about Finland next year?

KaZaa offers a 47 MB video of Alf poier. downloading it right now.

Amen, brother Stefu!

And Alf only lost due to some inexplicable weakness towards the end of voting. It's been a conspiracy, I tell ya!

I use this phrase often these days; maybe it's nostalgia, but:

I think the Brits organised some kind of powervoting, taking points away from Alf. How else would they have got so many points with that performance.

And Brother Saras: Amen.

I'm especially amused by all the newspaper articles predicting nul points for Austria before the competition.

They don't know much about Eurovision, do they?

Half Austria was enraged that Alf is a shame and we'll get 0 points. He even got death-menaces...
And now it's the best place for Austria in 15 years and as you say: WE WERE ROBBED!

Stefu: Austria is only happy when there's something we can
a) whine about
b) moan about
c) grumble about
d) feel treated unfair
Austria is ALWAYS happy!

Some media were dumb enough to claim part of Turkey's victory for us because one of the background dancers is Austrian!!!
