poptimistsWho ruled? Who wuz robbed? Who did the robbing? Will Terry stay or go? Is the Russian win down to Timbaland, rollerblades, or the bloc-vote version of Buggins' Turn? When did modern dance take over Eurovision and why won't the UK play the game? Is Sebastien Tellier in fact The Dude? Any other questions??
(I thought overall the quality was pretty high this year, though only 1 or 2 real standouts. Only 1 or 2 real stinkers too, sadly one of them won the thing.)

Date: 2008-05-25 10:56 am (UTC)Sweden = the one europop dance thing that I disliked.
Unlike Armenia, Ukraine, Greece (she looked like Britney a bit)
Spain was excellent. Loved how Terry just spent his time working how this got more points than the couldn't-be-arsed UK entry! Reggaeton x Macarena = funny + quite gd.
Also loved how Malta gave no points to the UK.
