I can't believe I am missing this for Justin Bond tonight

pinkfish: no, the camp entertainment value is pretty good, too

I particularly like the pistons in the background and the 7-foot silver-lame drag queens.

I don't think it's that tawdry really. Every housewife on Eastenders is pole dancing these days.

I have to say I can't remember the song, but maybe that's the idea.

Only you two could turn Eurovision into Mystery Science Theater 3000. Go you!

i'm not particularly thrilled by any of them.

And THIS is what countries are threatening international oncidents over?

They all seem to lack any soul or even belief in the music they are performing, though the last one comes close.

I still am in shock from Finland's triumph, in GWAR regalia!

"Hard Rock Hallelujah!"

THE WINGS MAKE ME GIGGLE!

That Ukrainian chick was a straight up HO.
And I didn't realize she was singing in a language I understood until the motherfucking second verse.
"Baybeh, Yoor Sew Fahne, Baybeh, Bee Mye Valuntyhne!"

What, no mention of the unbelievably fabulous Inga & Anush? Sheesh. OK, they were just good on stage, the video is in a league of its own. If you ask me. I wanted to get on the next plane to supercool Yerevan and see the balloons and the old ladies knitting and everyone doing the nor par.

Malena was good too of course.

OMG, you guys totally destroyed my music appreciation with these Eurovision videos. I had to do Gunther recovery clinic ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DbYtqAWDF2U ) for half an hour. I think I am OK again now. :P
