Eurovision 2011 UK Entry

    •  MazzMazz
    • We need to get serious about writing a HARD ROCK song for Eurovision 2011

      Band name ‘Steamy Windows’

      Band

      Hopkins = Guitar
      Bad Admiral = Bass
      Mamba = Drums
      Mazz = Vocals

      Hopkins…you need to write the SONG OF YOUR LIFE. Think along the lines of LICK IT UP by KISS or THE FINAL COUNTDOWN by EUROPE.

      No fannying about…go with the V,C,V,C, solo, C, C structure.

    • key change on the last chorus?

      any synth/keys/strings?
    •  MazzMazz
    • Synth would be cool...we need a synth player. Key change would cool as long as I can hit the notes.

      I had a vision of winning Eurovision 2011..let it begin.

      I'm going to write lyrics for...errr twenty songs then together pick the best. Or I may just write ONE AWESOME song.
    •  MazzMazz
    • Switch Rich to SYNTHS...Donny to bass?????

      WWWAAAAAAHHHHAARRRGGGHH
    •  MazzMazz
    • ...or use something punchy like BORN TO RAISE HELL as a template.

      I just got the giggles

    • Good Lordi!

      I actually think you guys would win, either that or you need to get less than "nil poire", which has never been done before and will require an equal amount of effort.

    •  MazzMazz

    • ok, i have a melody for the chorus
      the ROCK and TOP will echo, a job for the backing singers

      i'm getting hints of Foreigner already
    •  MazzMazz
    • Donny's thing could be his rape mask...and a spiderman outfit.
    •  MazzMazz
    • FUCK FUCK FUCK

      "Norway are after songs already…

      esctoday.com/news/read/15984

      There'll be no chance whatsoever of getting even a sniff at the UK entry though. That'll be a completely closed shop next year, I'm afraid."

    • a facebook campaign would DEMAND our entry

      oh yeah....a good old facebook campaign...I left facebook..But I love an old facebook campaign. It's our only hope..man the INDUSTRY sux..ha ha..the INDUSTRY.

      I already had our victory INTERVIEW sorted.

      BBC "So how are you guys going to celebrate tonight?"
      STEAMY WINDOWS "I guess we're gunna tear this town a new asshole"

      Just what I was thinking. Facebook campaigns solve everything.

      That, or we could move to Norway.
    •  MazzMazz
    • I would SPAM PLANET ROCK and CLASSIC ROCK demanding that it is their duty to support our amazing song.

    •  HopkinsHopkins
    • the duh duh duh duh duhhhhhhh, is that like an ACDC riff?
    •  MazzMazz
    • Hopkins says:

      yeah..I was thinking the tempo of the verse from BORN TO RAISE HELL by Motorhead...a good solid ROCK AND ROLL riff.

      That song makes the hair on the back of neck stand up...not the version with ICE T but the version from BASTARDS.

    •  MazzMazz
    • I'm working on my stage moves tonight ;). Lot's singing down into the mic with one fist held high..like Brain from AC/DC....but wearing righteous shades
