Are semi finals supposed to start next week? If so I can't  But I can watch the final. I'll give it a chance, but very weird because it won't be a normal Eurovision, plus you don't have countries, you have territories or regions So I'll give it a chance. Who knows, maybe I'll like it  I read the article on Türkvision Song Contest in Wiki and I'm confused.. how can  Saudi Arabia take part? I did research and it doesn't seem like it has any significant Turkish population, and it's language is Arabic. I'm just a bit confused. But who knows, Wiki editors could be lying  However, I await the debut of  Tajikistan The whole thing seems to be kinda messy, entries and participating regions often change, at least on wikipedia, and it's only one week until the contest But well, it's only the first edition, maybe it will be more organized in future editions. Actually Austria should participate there too, we have so many Turkish people here.....  Ireland can't because we have only 1000-10000 Turkish people here  Next thing you'd expect is Germany.. and Austria, and then elsewhere? ._. But the entries are all over the place. Also Turkmenistan and Turkey have not even announced how they'll select their participant. Also a number of other regions either, oh well, hopefully they'll be more organised next year |

Concerning that hideous contest,I find it extremely lame how a contest was created just so that some unrecognized and illegal 'nations' take part... I just have nothing to tell about it,I find it an extremely lame and bad idea.  |

Everything you see in wikipedia might not be correct, as you know Yes.  KSA is an Arab country and  Tajikistan is more of an Afghan/Persian country. |

I just have nothing to tell about it,I find it an extremely lame and bad idea. Mimis.. Mimis.. Mimis.. Legal, illegal or whatever. Sometimes it's good to say "Fuck the system" to the world Probably because your country organizes it and all Turkic nation take part...But seeing the Cypriot map all covered with the flag of an illegal nation (the so-called 'Northern Cyprus') is just a huge shame! How can you be promoting a competition where a 'nation' like this takes part, when it's only recognized by Turkey and everyone knows it's illegal? I mean,it's just so lame to do that... And the contest itself is lame as it shows Turkey were disappointed of ESC (probably because they didn't get the results they wanted, as I'm sure that the juries is not the actual reason you left) and hence wanted to create its own contest where it'll be able to win more easily... Being on top is of course a great feeling,but what for when you are there just because you have more power than the others? It just doesn't even feel like satisfying. If Turkey wanted to stay in ESC, they would've done so and they would've sent a good song too... But apparently, that decison of theirs made them look like 'cowards' as they were not even able to compete against countries of the same power as them... P.S. The message does not contain any political meaning etc. It's just some personal opinion of how things are. |

The message does not contain any political meaning etc. It's just some personal opinion of how things are. I understand you. And I think you already know my opinion to sollution to Cyprus dispute so no need to write them again. But what I wanna say is, you're taking everything too seriously and overreacting this. That covered map of Cyprus wasn't anything official. It's just one of the pictures you can easily see on the internet. I didn't write it just because it's Turkey hosting either. So far I don't have any opinion about Turkvision and I'm not even promoting it. If I like the contest, I'll always watch it. If I don't, then I won't be interested in it. The reasons of foundination of Turkvision are lame and it makes me worried about our future in Eurovision. I don't have anything to say about this either. But the point is, this contest is where Turkic nations and some countries which are close relations can participate. Being a UN member or being a country seems not a criterion to participate there. Even territories can participate. So how could they leave Turkish Cypriots out, when all others are taking part there? If North Cyprus was never founded, they could still participate and nothing would change... Only, they would participate under the name of "Cyprus" then. I don't know which one disturbs you here that's why I cannot explain in more detail; seeing your island relatives participating in a contest or seeing them participating under "that" name? |
