Eurovision - a voting scandal says the swedish press as this year was evidently characterised by voting for neighbouring countries. But that's the whole idea, no? Who would you have voted for?
I like push the button (crummy youtube here). ;P

I liked the German entry, which was a big band song, and the Hungarian entry, a blues/rock song.

Everything else was either instantly forgettable or was full of suckitude beyond belief.

As Eurovision never gets broadcast (that I know of), I'm having to go through all the vids, which is painful. It seems so far I've got a list of everyone I wouldn't vote for.
The Irish one is bad, and by bad I mean not good, unlike the vampire song which is bad like when you go to the dentist and he takes the little hooky thing and scrapes your teeth and sometimes gets your gums at the same time and you know that the little bit of pain there is going to get worse because the fluoride or whatever's in the cleaning stuff they use (I'm sure it's finely ground marble in a spearmint goo) will eat away at it some more leaving you with a dull ache in your whole head lasting for at least two days that four ibuprofen won't even really get rid of.
What's up with the British? Scooch? What kind of name is that? They remind me of Bucks Fizz, another terrible band with a stupid name.
The Russians... well, at least the pretty little girls have clothes on, otherwise it's forgettable.
Lithuanina and Bosnia/Herzegovina are insipid, and Finland reminds me of Lacuna Coil/Evanescence stuff.
Sweden. Hmm. Glam, kinda. It's sorta ok, but Primal Scream they're not.
I've been avoiding the ones that are obvious love songs because they're usually ickky, but I'm sure I'll get to them eventually.

Actually, on re-watching bits of the vid, the Swedish one reminds me of the Bay City Rollers. hmmmm.
And I meant this Primal Scream song.

I am so proud Italy haven't contributed to this thing in the last ten years.

yeah, yet another thing that makes me wish I was Italian.

You really don't want to. Try to live there for a few months, just as an experience :)
