Eurovision news!

UkraineBecause I know you've all been anxiously awaiting more Eurovision news...

- Israel is going for an accordeon-based "let's dance" thingie about terrorism. The chorus goes "they're gonna "poesj da botton! Poesj da Botton!" (push the button). Needless to say, I love it.
- Another accordeon, and silver-clad drag queen (see photo) for the Ukraine (funny, I'd have thought that sort of thing was illegal there), whose song consists of counting in German and saying "dancing is good". Or summat. Warskinny pointed out that the Drag Queen looks scarily much like André Vermeulen! What do you think? It could be a superman/Clark Kent thing. Will they ever be seen in the same place together? Will André subtly disappear from his commentator booth when it's time for the Ukraine's performance?
- Germany is doing something boring with a man in a hat
- We're sending something with trumpets and a very bad beginning
- Greece sends a combination between Sirtaki, Ricky Martin and Ruslana. The result is pretty confusing. In the clip I saw, the man has some kind of moustache only 16-year-olds have... the "I'm gonna leave this here so everyone can see I already have to shave, but I'm just too cool to do that!"-thing that is too horrid to contemplate.

I'm going to have to refrain myself from mentioning every single bloody country here, so I'll try to shut up now.
