Eurovision Song Contest
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


The Eurovision Song Contest (French: Concours Eurovision de la Chanson) is an annual competition held among active member countries of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU).

Each member country submits a song to be performed on live television and then casts votes for the other countries' songs to determine the most popular song in the competition. Each country participates via one of their national EBU-member television stations, whose task it is to select a singer and a song to represent their country in the international competition.

The Contest has been broadcast every year since its inauguration in 1956 and is one of the longest-running television programmes in the world. It is also one of the most-watched non-sporting events in the world, with audience figures having been quoted in recent years as anything between 100 million and 600 million internationally. Eurovision has also been broadcast outside Europe to such places as Australia, Canada, Mexico, Egypt, Hong Kong, India, Jordan, New Zealand, South Africa, South Korea, the United States, and Vietnam, despite the fact that these countries do not compete. Since the year 2000, the Contest has also been broadcast over the Internet, with more than 74,000 people in almost 140 countries having watched the 2006 edition online.


In other words: It´s an awsome song contest !

Now that's all sorted, let's get back to Eurovision!

To be honest, I'm not very pleased with my country's (UK) contestant this year. I would have prefered The Twins to represent us, instead Jade is (I think that's her name anyway).
But, atleast we have another serious song this year. No more "flying the flag" nonsense.

Lucky you; Holland decided to go for extravaganza this year, and sent our most, erh.... 'colorful' pack of singers; The 'Toppers'. I hate them.

I've actually heard that song \o/ I feel special! And sort of dumb. But also special.
