    Whilst doing other stuff had an eye on tonights contenders Netherlands sounded a bit like some of the Scooter and a tad of the backing dancers routine .. could come close.

    Spain doesnt leave a alot to the imagination Norway a bit shrieky .. didnt hear yesterdays San Marino lively

    Actually didnt intend to watch it was doing something else and clicked on a link and the song was quite bouncy so carried on doing other stuff with it playing in background was quite helpful as was trying to get my head around the Nuclear fusion process how they force 2 atomic nuclei to become 1 creating a heavier one, and why it releases massive amounts of energy.

    Not interested in the competition.
    It stopped being a music comp years ago. It’s almost totally political - which is sad for the performers - they have no idea if their song is any good or not - only whether people like their country or not.

    Don't need an anti-inflammatory to shrink rather than expand - can you recommend something that works the other way around?............<whistle> <laugh>

    What a useless waste of time and energy for Europe when there are way more important things to think about. When did the music industry start pandering to all of the weirdos out there and then allow this competition to be off the radar for any actual music? I know there are people out there who have ambitions to change the landscape of Europe forever but I can't remember in my geography lessons ever hearing about Australia going through a quantum shift in location. The time is fast approaching whereby this type of rubbish is banned from TV by a man called Putin and the only entrants will be all of the ex-Soviet states that he has brutalised into submission. Get real people who actually admit they watch and worship this kind of trash because Vlad the Impaler is waiting for you and he won't treat you nicely.

    Unfortunately Mike, I think Eurovision is just a perfect reflection of modern society and its lack of true values that we grew up with
    I’m sure including the likes of Australia is probably money driven in the same way that the World Cup and Champions League have been devalued by including teams and nations who aren’t champions of their country or in the case of the WC not fit to play in the competition

    Let’s be honest, it’s always been crap, I don’t care which country’s are in it. It’s rubbish and has never been about music, it’s always been political.

    I mostly agree. However, it did give us ABBA - one of the most successful bands ever…

    They’re a outlier though, not my taste, but they are good writers of pop songs I agree and very successful.
