Modify the Eurovision Song Contest rules such that all entries must be sung in Esperanto.

Might not even be nice. We'd have to see. |
|

split west and eastern europe please into 2 contests - I cannot keep up with the voting |

Mi emi tiu ideo. La artistoj kantas plejofte en la lingvo angla. Tiu lingvo estos tro enuiga por kantado. |

Maybe a rule that says that the lyrics of all countries' songs must include a national insult to their neighbours and we might see a change in the voting patterns. |
|
| |
That's the first time I've ever seen or heard anyone use Esperanto. [Saruman] If I knew what plejo and enuiga meant I think I could understand what you've written. Very weird. |

"Je t'adore
And I can't conceal it
Je t'adore
Anyone can see it
You give me just a little more
Of everything I've waited for
Je t'adore
Here's my heart so take it
Je t'adore
Only you can break it
You got me fallen to the floor
Anyway you want I'm yours
Ooh je t'adore" |

That Belgian song was the big favorite, but sadly, the stupid Eurosong voting system made us lose. There just aren't enough Belgians living in the Ukraine or in Latvia. Tssss... |
|
| |
Anyway, we won, and we're proud of it. Kate Ryan, je t'adore. |

Why? |
|
| |
What's Esperanto for 'United Kingdom, No Points' ? |
|
| |
+ anything to make it slightly less boring. |
|
| |
In fact, even better - get rid of it completely! |
|

Zimmy:
It means "I like this idea. Most artists sing in English. That language is too boring for songs."
I probably made a lot of mistakes, though. |
|
| |
That's how I understood it, [Saruman] |
|
| |
Bun to [Saruman] for being able to speak a language that's not only dead, but was never actually alive in the first place. |
|
| |
is it possible to do an autopsy on a language? |
|
| |
I got most of what you meant except "boring" after a 1 min look at a website on Esperanto. (I mostly wanted to see if what you wrote was really Esperanto). I've only heard of the language mentioned a few times before. |
|
| |
enuiga is very similar to ennui (boredom) in French so I took a flyer. |
|
| |
I know quite a few words in Spanish, but that was not one. & I can only speak to most of my neighbors as a child in Spanish .. so embarassing (for an Ohioan, I guess). |
