The Russian apparently does not want to hurt nobody, around 600 times.

Country and western outfit and sub Bangles music for Switzerland.

Latvian boys are very nice aren’t they, the queens will be blowing a fuse

France, Steps in black and one yellow.

Chacque a bon cette soir - multiply by 600  
Still I’ve seen far worse, and they were against the Iraq war, so they must have a chance.

The sad thing is that all German entries except two (1998 and 2000) _were_ serious.

Trust me, Europeans the continent over are always coming up with new reasons to hate the French.

1998, was that Guido ? You guys should send him again.

Romania and Norway were in a class of their own (special needs class)

Norway are so open minded, big hair rock, with a 45 year old, in a tin foil suit.

Moldova is pretty much the best, Axl Rose without the personality, or talent or dress sense, or the music.

I take it Spain is trying to keep the tourists away this year, I mean, who is going on their hols there if that is likely to be pumped out at all the nightclubs.

The autocue must be running too slow, judging by the way the female presenter is dragging her words out, wonderful.

Sad thing was, I bet on Spain pre-contest- I thought it could ride a wave of Los Ketchup popularity to victory.

Forgot to note that the song was crap.

Nobody takes Wig Wam seriously. Least of all Wig Wam.

Never assume that the country that sent Jahn Teigen _three times_ intends anything that gets sent to Eurovision with a straight face.
