!!!EUROVISION!!!
People are crazy - and they watch the Grand Prix Eurovision de la Chanson!
As do I!
It's fantabulous! People wear glittery blindfolds, Michael Jackson style yellow gloves, tons of make-up, rosebushes on their heads, red monk's robes, they bake bisquits on stage or they are Engelbert Humperdink.
Join me in the fun - let the youtube spamming begin!
Russia decided fora more traditional entry... kinda.
Even if the Austrians don't win - this song will live on on Après Ski parties and at the Ballermann and in Bayernzelten throughout Austria and Germany.
*whoop whoop*
They threatened to send them back until they win... *shudders*
(Also: where's the hair?!)
Right then, let's get to the one's I actually rather like, shall we?
Estonia is quite nice - both the singer *smirks* and the song. Even Arnie liked this one, well, she says herself that she has thing for big, cheesy, dramatic 80ies style ballads (think Johnnie Logan...)
Also: Sweden! Admittedly, it's not my favourite genre, dancefloory-electroish-trancey little thing that it is, but I would totally dance to this in a disco!
And last, but not at all least: Engelbert!
Yeah, I know, I first thought it was a joke, too. As did Peter Urban. And Graham Norton. However... he is not bad at all. Quite a bit better than Blue last year. Check him out:
And just in case the German entry sort of just passed you by (like it did with me), here we go:
(Bit boring, but that's just me...)
There are certainly some songs I forget, but it's late(ish) and since I need work tomorrow and I do know that you are actually not that enthused about the Grand Prix as I am, I'll just leave it here.
Good night!
