Well I've read the commects above and I'm afraid a lot of it sounds like SOUR GRAPES. No wonder folk clubs are struggling if the ONLY type of music that is acceptable to us is in the folk medium. The winning Eurovision song is, in my opinion, a good song. Many modern pop music tracks are moving from the 'standard' western musical format. The performers were on the whole excellent. Singing live in that situation must be very difficult. Unfortunately Gemini were the only group who had problems. The lady was just in the wrong key when she started. In fainess she did continue and did sort it out. A shame something was wrong! Many of the songs this year were interesting. It would appear that using televoting is introducing a change to the EUROVISION experience. The songs are more likely to be found in the charts for their respective countries. In a way the British entry was one of the most 'classical Eurovision' songs. Next year perhaps a more radical song will be chosen.
