I must confess that I also cast a vote for the Swedish "Neverstore". I had never heard of them before but I listened to some of ther songs on youtube and I liked what I heard. They sounded a bit like "Anonymous" 
Aaah well on the subject of who we voted for, I voted for Dima, Laka and Leona Lewis 
Its a strange system because you can vote as many times as you want
Mina
Oh, I see. Do you still live in Athens ?
Thank you Stockholm, it's great to see you, too
I changed house and I didn't have internet for a while 
Mina
Nice to see you back I wondered what had happened to you.
Jonny
We all know that your English is perfect
And I voted for Laka of course
Jonnyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! It's ok, I'm sure your english will improve in time...LOOOOOOOOOOL
(I'll tell you all about the flat in chat )
MINA!!!!!!!
Welcome back! Hope your new flat is nice
As you can see a certain someone is telling me how to speak english again! lol
I'm back finally!!! Hi to all my friends...and everyone else as well
About this article now, I just voted for Dima (naturally 
).

Well seeing as the word "live" has 2 definitions, I think its very easy to get each definition confused.
Read this - http://www.thefreedictionary.com/live
2 definitions: "live - actually being performed at the time of hearing or viewing; "a live television program"; "brought to you live from Lincoln Center"; "live entertainment involves performers actually in the physical presence of a live audience"
or . . .
"live:
1. To be alive; exist.
2. To continue to be alive:"
Heres what you wrote "Yeah, vote for Bilan. Since very few care to see him live, give him a consolation prize: vote for him. how pathetic!"
As you can see both contexts of the word "live" could fit into that sentence and still make perfect sense, so don't start telling me I can't speak english properly becuase you and I know full well my english is fine.
And so what if I make a few spelling mistakes when i'm typing? Because english is my first language I tend to type it fast and generally without thinking about every single word, so its natural that I make mistakes. It doesn't prove anything about my english skills.
Tori Kaz, take care of your own business, if you will.
Jonny K: "Believe me, my english is perfectly fine. Interpreting the word "live" for the different definition of "live", is an easy mistake for anybody to make, english or non english native speaker."
If a native speaker (like you claim to be) can´t even write English, Jesus Christ or realize the tremendous difference between live and alive, I´m right to say that education in the UK seems to have reached rock bottom.
"I am blatantly not a very good english speaker after all You seem to enjoy doing it anyhow!"
Well, now I´m 100% sure that the English educational system is in tatters.
Grow up, cause you're making yourself look like such a fool in here.
Thanks Tori, you see sense

"learn English. You clearly lack basics skills to understand what you call the language, even though you insist it´s your mother tongue"
You're Spanish (or so you say) and you're telling me to learn english?? Jesus christ! I've lived in the UK all my life and you're telling me to learn english better . . . . you need help.
Believe me, my english is perfectly fine. Interpreting the word "live" for the different definition of "live", is an easy mistake for anybody to make, english or non english native speaker.
"grow up, cause you're making yourself look like such a fool in here."
Haha how ironic its you whos saying that!
And feel free to point out any mistakes I make, because I am blatantly not a very good english speaker after all You seem to enjoy doing it anyhow!
Si, mi reina
You're aggressive and mean. It's disgusting...
Jonny K. I won´t call you dumb idiot, no sir. Instead, I´ll tell you four things you must consider before you use your fast fingers to criticize me again:
1) learn English. You clearly lack basics skills to understand what you call the language, even though you insist it´s your mother tongue
2) avoid reading my comments, if you find them so annoying. That would surely prevent me from calling you bloody fool
3) I don´t like Dima Bilan, and I´ll keep expressing my feeling in here no matter how many times you say "it´s wearing thing"
4) grow up, cause you're making yourself look like such a fool in here.
Yeah susan lol English can get confusing, its my first language and I still manage to bugger things up!
That was an interesting exercise in how English can get confusing.
Jonny K. I was wondering what you were getting so annoyed about, because I read it as "live performance" as opposed to "living". Glad you got that one sorted out then.
**On my last post I said - "Did you mean live (as in alive) or live (as in interpreting it wrong." - I meant to say "Did you mean live (as in alive) or live (as in performance)? Cause if its in terms of performance i'm sorry for reading it wrong." -
And i'm going to second guess you, don't bother using this as ammunition to call me an idiot or something, because its wearing just a tad thing now, OK?
si me reina
First of all calm down, take some deep breaths, relax
And if i'm correct, "nobody cares to see him alive" and "nobody cares to see him live" mean basically the same thing.
Unless you mean live as in, "live performance" in which case it is totally different.
Did you mean live (as in alive) or live (as in interpreting it wrong.
But as I said, yes there is nothing wrong with that phrase, but its the fact that you were dumb enough to write it that pisses me off
If you hate him so much, i'm sure there are plenty of places you can vent it, but to be honest, its wearing a bit thin here.
"The only idiot in here is YOU. Bloody dumb idiot, that´s what YOU ARE."
Oooh bugger i'm offended lol! Jeezz, for an adult (or at least I would assume you are) you're pretty good and being immature.
"Nothings wrong with that phrase. It just annoys me when people have nothing better to do but post comments as dumb as that."
Jonny K, so there´s nothing wrong with the phrase that initially got you so pissed off??
"Dude, all i'm saying is grow up a little, cause you're making yourself look like such a idiot by posting stuff like that. "
I don´t give a s... about your opinion, specially because you can´t just come straight face and recognize that you made a mistake. You misunderstood live for alive. The only idiot in here is YOU. Bloody dumb idiot, that´s what YOU ARE.
DIma is the Best Russian Act for 4th time in a raw.
I love them both

Mr. very pissed and tremendously silly Jonny K. ,

LAKA IS THE BEST.LAKA LAKA LAKA LAKA LAKA
Another Dima fan here,( now hiding under the desk to avoid flying objects), you can vote more than once? Huh. So I got all anguished ignoring Nighwish for no reason. Cool!
I've made fun of him too, but I love his music.

OK what you posted may have been your opinion, but it was also totally un-called for and a really really dumb thing to say. I am also entitled to my own opinion and my opinion is that people who post comments like that need to grow up and get a life.
Since very few care to see him live
Tell me, am I being un-reasonable to be annoyed if somebody posts something like this about anybody??
Its not just cause its Dima, if you posted that about anybody I would be pissed, OK?
