DANZING!

It's Eurovision day - YAY!

I know it's frowned upon by the bear community to like Eurovision, but I've always liked cheesy pop music, and always liked Eurovision. And judging by the sheer numbers of bears coming to our Euro-party tonight, I'm certainly not on my own!

The semi-final on Thursday was a real eye-opener... pretty much all the songs I liked have been knocked out - Denmark's drag queen DQ, Belgium's Love Power, Israel's anti-war song (alright, that was crap, but kinda catchy after a few listens!), the Cypriots singing entirely in French (bizarre!), Poland's party song (the word party was used 35 times in 3 minutes!) and Switzerland's version of Aqua singing about vampires. The final result was 8 qualifiers that were ex-Soviet or ex-Yugoslav states, plus Turkey and Hungary. Draw your own conclusions!

The favourites seem to be a Su Pollard lookalike drag artist from Ukraine, whose costume is mainly bacofoil, and what can only be described as a Serbian lesbian (well, I can't be sure, but look at her performance!). As ever, the UK are deemed to have no chance (25-1 for a win, 8-1 for a nul-points!), but I have to admit I think the Scooch song is funny!
