Didn't like one island off of Italy give us some points? So at least one country doesn't hate us! :)

Finland would've gotten much more points if they hadn't sung in Finnish! (Or, then again, maybe not.)

I thought UK's song was pretty cool :D

We don't get coverage in the US (big surprise there) unless they air it on BBC America and I missed it or something, but I always watch the clips on Youtube because, for the most part, I find them pretty hysterical.

UK's entry was not as bad this year - the one with the school girls or whatever a couple years ago was terrible. This one at least had a melody.

Ukraine... I found that one funny because the girl was dancing around what looked like four guys trapped in refrigerators behind glass.

Can someone explain Spain's entry? That one went totally over my head. I've been told it's funny if you can understand the words, but why enter something so inaccessible in an international contest? I don't know, I didn't find it that amusing.

EDIT: I found a subtitled version and it *sort of* makes sense now.

Armenia's was at least catchy... :? Personally, the last time I heard a really good song come out of Eurovision was 1974. (On that note, some of the entries are still taking fashion cues from that year.)
