I don't suppose any of you would be able to transliterate a song text written in Cyrillic alphabet for me?

I can try. It's been awhile, but I still know the basic fundamentals for it.

Well, if you could try to transliterate this, I'd be very grateful. The translation isn't a problem but I need it transliterated so that I know how much room I have and such.

Nooo! One of my favourite ESC countries pulling out? Say it's not so!

Can't say I disagree with their reasons, though... juries are killing this contest, really.

Oh, many nations are giving up in ESC... I haven't really expected it from Bosnia and Herzegovina since they had good placings last couple of years.

And on the other note, I started writing my performance!

As a person who loved Turkey's ESC 2009 and 2010 entries,I find this rather sad.

So guys, what do you all think of Switzerland's entry? I don't think it's all that good; I don't really expect it to qualify...

It's from July... from a website that's always posting bogus articles, anyway. I think they had Poland as returning in 2013 once...

Little off-topic question: would any of you be interested in a NS Idol? You submit 1-4 singer and/or 1 judge, and your singer sing IRL songs. A committee of 5-8 nations would determine the judges. There would be 30 or so contestants in auditions, then down to 20, then 15, then the top 10, top 5, and then the big final. It would span about 1-2 months and would require posting at least 3 times a month. Anyone interested?

Well tbh, it's a little unclear about what to do in your OP and other posts. You need to be more in depth about how to sign up, how the voting works, etc., before you can expect other people to join, because quite frankly, if faced with the choosing to ask a bunch of questions, or not joining whatsoever, most people would choose the second option.

Whoops, should have checked the date, but I just found it today. I guess I just wanted it to be true, haha.

NSIdol - sounds like a great idea, but I'd be too busy to participate, at least for right now.

Not only that, Entertainment is a broad range of topics. It'd have been better if it was reduced into awards of specific topics/categories such as "NS Grammies" or "NS Academy Awards".
