Ahh... the famous event where in one corner ppl sing and in the other corner ppl vote based on political popularity instead of anything contest related. :P
Any predictions who will be the winner and runner-ups, which ones are your favorites?

The Belgian song is not too bad. I dig the looks of the German and Bulgarian singers ^o^

EDIT: they just uploaded an interview of the German contestant who 's a full K-Pop fan:

I want to see GOGBear singing a drm-free song with naked Polish girls.
I stopped watching Eurovision after I learned it was the real reason for WWII.

You confusing Franz Ferdinand the band with Archduke Franz Ferdinand...

(I know, they didn't do Eurovision, it was the least tenuous link I could get too)
Eurovision is good for a laugh, cheesy and overdone performances plus pop music, puke

Not Sweden at least. Our contestant is just a bland dude strolling around looking lost and mumbling he's not sorry.
It'll be nice that some other country will host the spectacle next year.
Is this a convention? Some trade show? Awards ceremony?

It's a send your worst singer but dress him/her as a glamourous as possible and claim in all earnesty it's representing your whole country and hold up the flag while just partying contest. I guess it's the pinnacle of pop culture. :)

It's a remake of the movie "8 Mile" where instead of money and fame, the winning country gets the presidency of the European Union for one year. Let's pray Australia doesn't win :)
I really enjoyed the ESC from 2007 (although, I didn't agree with the choice for winner) and I've always meant to watch it every year since. Alas, it is quite difficult to keep track of here in the U.S. and I always seem to forget about it right around when it is going to be held. Thanks for the playlist, catpower1980! I'll check it out!

Wow it seems really interesting. Isn't it cool that so many people attend despite knowing this?
