Eurovision - Our Year (Definitely Isn't)


Its that time of year again! Cue foreign power ballads, euro pop, outlandish outfits and awkward presenters attempting humour. Yes, its Eurovision time. 18th May is the date our evening will be invaded by a marathon show of songs and performers more camp than Elton John playing naked twister with an oiled up Chippendale wearing a cowboy hat… in fact that sounds like it could be the inspiration for a few eastern European entries.

Years past, lets face it, we’ve done rubbish! So rubbish in fact the United Kingdom were beaten by Jedward! But this year, this is our year (definitely won’t be) the UK have pulled out the Welsh tinted big gun… Bonnie Tyler. ‘Believe In Me’ is certainly no ‘Total Eclipse Of The Heart’ but with Bonnie and her famous powering vocals a live performance should win over the voting European public. Maybe. Hopefully. At the very least not a Nil Pois.

Theatrics and clichés aside we have the voice of sanity Graham Norton talking us through the show, making the ordeal tolerable.

Bring On Saturday!
