Good review!

Three things:

This was the year of the little, spangly dress. I think they shared.

Turkey. Hummm. Eyebrows. I would.

France: I liked last year's group. They rocked. I missed them. Also the backing singers had better beards than your man who was singing.

LOL, it certianly saved money them all wearing the same outfit. I had the mental image of the Ukrainian kicking the Swede's arse behind the scenes "that's MY outfit!"

Me too :) Oh so definitely, yes. But only after I've had my pic of Ukraine's backing dancers

Ugh *headdesk* I hated Germany's entry so much I refused to show this to my dad, I think he would have cried.

I LOVED LATVIA'S SONG. OMFG PIRATES SQUEEEEEEEEEE!

I've been attempting to write what I feel should be the sequeel to Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island, and this totally made my day. (I have an unhealthy obsession with pirates, mostly because my great-great-great-great (ad naseum) Grandfather sailed with Calico Jack Rackham(spelling?) at one time, and was hanged for piracy. yay family history no one cares about!)

How bad was it? Bland and horrible and the blond COULD NOT SING!

Latvia? Should have won. Yes yes yes yes they should. The pirates will eat your soul. You totally have to dress up as a pirate now, you have the right!
