It's essentially America Idol only everyone has to sing an original song. Also, it's all European countries competing against each other and throwing shade. Everyone in Europe hates Germany, so unless the German song is killer like it was in 2010 when Lena won, we almost always get zero points. The ESC is special, it's actually very political too, even though on the surface it seems just like a super weird camp fest. Plus countries outside Europe like Israel and Australia, because why the hell not?

According to my friend, Australia gave the UK 12 points - I had to ask him what happened when I heard loud screaming from the campus bar that was showing it.

I thought the Azerbaijan song was okay, but the horse-dude on the ladder was fucking ridiculous. I read horse dude and thought you meant Khal Montenegro (I know they weren't in the finals)

My Eurovision post got eaten I'm not surprised at all we were last, the only surprise is that the little asshole we sent managed to get 5 points instead of 0. His song was lame, the presentation sucked, and the only remarkable moment was this one: I remember there was a lot of heat when he won to go to Eurovision, there were claims that said the whole process was rigged and he didn't deserve to win. I just wanted to punch his face the second I saw it, so I'm glad he failed.

Some of ours featured politicians The turd that is Nigel Farage (We aren't giving you any points!) and Diane Abbot (with her...unique numerical skills)

Hey guys, i did watch Eurovision!!
I shamelessly like Sweden's entry. Because come on. So freakin' beautiful.
Spain was..weird sorry Enid i'm not doing it for my lover Australia...was okay. Pretty poor effort, needed more oiled up dancers
My favourite was probably Bulgaria, Denmark and switzerland.
I didn't really like Portugal? i mean yeh okay it was different but i thought Romania or Moldova would win because they were much more Eurovision. The competition has changed.
The UK was actually okay. The Irish guy sounded weird when he sang? Like his singing voice was nothing like his speaking voice, it was angelic though.
These are some of my favourite eurovision entries btw for you american peeps:
That concludes my eurovision report.

Spain was..weird sorry Enid i'm not doing it for my lover No need to apologize, the only thing people here are complaining about is that he got 5 points instead of 0. That guy only went because he used his connections to get selected during a contest that supposedly was won by popular vote.

Euphoria is the best song to come out of that show in like the last ten years, it's so good. There are only a couple of Eurovision songs that I still listen to on a regular basis, Euphoria is one, and this is the other one:
