I know you're all watching it :lol:

i try not to but every time i flip an channel its on, if i had multiple tv sets i could watch it simultaneous on netherlands 1, belgium 1, BBC 1, ZDF, rai uno i believe and some turkish one.

only thing i lingered on where some gay leprechauns jumping around out of sinc but even that tired pretty fast.

Eurotrash is something very different altogether in the UK...

For non-Europeans, here is Moldova's tremendous act, and pretty much sums up the quality of music you can expect at Eurovision

Moldova was the only one that had the really weird costumes/etc that I associate with Eurovision. I was hoping for more wackiness. To be fair, I think the main reason people watch Eurovision is because it's so shit.

WTH Europe Azerbaijan were rubbish XD

Why do the songs I always think are really generic, boring and shit win. :P

Yeah, when their entry came on for the first time my first thought was that it was a typical, kind of generic Eurovision song.

The UK didn't do too badly, but even Malta and Ireland didn't really rate Blue.

I cant believe the badass leftists with their song " stuggle is joy " didnt win.

The guys who went there were arretested more than 20 times protesting against everything big that happened in Portugal, for that they decerved to win.

It surpised me that Azerbaijan won...

I had a fiver on Iceland in a sweepstake, needless to say I won nothing. Funnily enough out of the 20 odd people there noone picked Azerbaijan so the guy with Italy took the spoils.

I love Eurovision

Me too like Eurovision is something all Europe bring together. My cynical point of view would be too much copy others songs or crap dancing, too much explosions. I wish maybe one day all world could perform folklore dancing and songs with own musical instruments and outfits. Would be great idea. Some long time ago I do remember something it was happened.
