    Default The most biased contest on earth!

    Those Europeans amongst the board know all about the Eurovision Song 'Contest' but after this years i thought id expose the US types to it too.

    Its a long show, with songs from 25 countries around Europe represented and then 43 Countires post votes. Its meant to be a fair and fun contest but the amount of Political BS that goes on with neighbour countries (Especially the Old soviet block) makes it all pretty pointless.

    As the UK host, Terry Wogan, says its simply a chance once a year, to Laugh at Johnny Foreigner and throw things at the TV....and some of these acts provoke both responses.

    Enjoy....

    Oh and if your wondering the Deep voiced narrator in the background is Terry Wogan, the UK presenter. Basically this years was produced by Serbian TV, as the local TV station usually do for whichever country is hosting it but the other countries still send commentators to present it for their countries in the form of a voice over.
    Terry Wogan is a legend in the uk for this show in which he slowly gets more and more drunk and more and more bemused by the events going on. Ridiculing acts, hosts and anyone else he notices.

    And one more piece of good news. There are talks of the US wanting to host something similar but initially only starting out as an American Song Contest where its State vs State instead of Country.

    If nothing else works, a total pig-headed unwillingness to look facts in the face will see us through.
