I just happened to catch the winning song from the Italians as I was channel hopping on Saturday night. Heard about 30 seconds of it and turned over.
I don't mind all the camp stupidity of it all and I used to love the "excitement" of the voting, but the music is awful. If music it do be?
As for the UK music industry. When was the last time we had a decent record made from anybody British? Somebody suggested persuading Ed Sheeran or Adele to take part. God, no! Though they are both multi millionaires, I would rather listen to the lad from Settle than either of them.
The last great UK Eurovision song was probably from that Aussie lass Gina G. Ooh Ah Just a Little Bit went on to be the top selling record in Europe that year, 25 years ago in 1996, but only came 8th in the contest and I don't think we've had a top ten finish since.
Yes, some of the voting is undoubtedly political and maybe somebody ought to ask ourselves why the rest of the world despises this self centred, arrogant sceptered isle that every asylum seeker wants to live in.
Anyway, to win, or even score a point, we need a catchy, party song, sung by somebody young, with a vivacious personality and a wacky gimmick.
My vote goes to........
Count Binface!!!!
No, seriously. I've no idea who, but there must be loads out there fitting the description.
