Thread Name: Nearly a good Eurovision winner
Subject: RE: Nearly a good Eurovision winner
Sorry to disagree Kevin, but although I thought the Belgian entry was less excrutiating than the other one or two which I heard excerpts of, it still sounded like plastic - let's give this gimmick a try -pop to me. I take perverse amusement in watching a few mínutes of this annual tawdry orgy of the mediocre and banal. I bet I wasn't the only Brit who derived enormous pleasure from seeing our (no doubt appalling) entry get nil points. Of course, it is galling to watch the Germans look smug about anything, but if I live to see England beat them at football again - even just once - they can win the bloody Eurovision Song Contest every year for all I care! You are right that most of the other entries deserved zero points too - certainly the ones I saw. God aren't we sick to watch this crap!
