No one on here knows nor understands the marvel that is the Eurovision Song Contest.

I was disappointed that these guys won. The last thing we want is for it to become contemporary. The truly unusual and bizarre are normally unaware of their eccentricity (or more likely, down right awfulness) but sadly these Finns knew exactly what they were doing.

I wanted a win for the Icelandic diva, Silva Night, who half way through the song has a telephone conversation with her biggest fan - God.

Why is it that really ugly people belong in metal bands? And what the heck is that they're wearing?

I used to endure the Eurovision Song Contest when i lived there.

My parents still have Bucks Fizz 7inch. It'll be mine when they pass. I think it was for "Run for your Life"
