Actually, that sounds really cool. It's a step above our American Idol (which I believe started in the UK) because, from the sound of it, it's original music. “This was the occasion when the world was first introduced to “Riverdance””

Eurovision time again..we also have the added bonus here in the UK of the commentary on BBC TV by "Sir Terence" ..most of the music is truly awful, and always has been, I've been watching it for more than 30 years (surely that must qualify me for some sort of medal ?) The most memorable Eurovision for me was the 1994 concert in Dublin...I was there. The music was mediocre as usual then we had the "interval" such a contrast to went before and what came after the break. This was the occasion when the world was first introduced to "Riverdance" it was visually and aurally stunning. I remember the audience were truly blown away by it. The standing ovation at the end was incredible. If you haven't seen it check it on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5Mc03_rlWo Ah!

That's too bad. I heard it and it was really catchy. Made me want to play the sims. :P Also I guess one was in English and that made it all controversial or something? I can't remember. :/ Anyway it sounds like lots of fun and I'm happy that you're happy and I expect to see an episode about it! Ah it didn’t make it to the final? That’s too bad.

"O julissi" or something. A song in a made up language. It was...interesting. Didn't make it to the final though.

Actually a few years ago it was talked about that the US wanted to buy the rights and do their own thing with it. So far it hasn't happened, and I'm happy for that. The US would ruin the spirit! <b>tbowl:</b> Actually, judging by tonight especially, the quality IS quite good this year. It's pretty crazy. The best part is that all the Eastern European countries are starting to branch out with their songs. They don't sound strictly Eastern European so much anymore. It's going to be a tough competition, assuming all the "right" ones make it through tonight! (it's currently voting time.. that's why I'm here writing this.) Sweden did awesome! I'm so nervous! bill: haha! Actually a few years ago it was talked about that the US wanted to buy the rights and do their own thing with it. So far it hasn’t happened, and I’m happy for that.
