Any other Eurofags into this shit show?

First semi-final was tonight, second is on the 12th of May, and the final is on the 14th.

Official youtube where you can watch all the songs is here.

And for an introduction to this experience for non-Euros here's some memorable performances from previous years.





 
I haven't watched an entire show since 2008, right before they implemented the semi finals, which are bullshit in my opinion
The semi finals have made it harder for those who take it less seriously to advance, which makes the show less entertaining.
 
I love Eurovision, the last few years my friend has a little get together and we all get drunk while watching it and take the piss out of the performers. my favourite song will always be Latvia's Wolves of the Sea or the dudes from Moldova with the really big hats

Yeah, I preferred the long shows, more entertaining acts, and you got a chance to get properly hammered. Although sometimes things can be funny when they take it seriously too, opera dracula for instance.

 
I watch it for the campness and the amount of fuck ups that happen. each song and band invariably has a gimmick which can be either impressive or really dumb. there's also the political voting, the weird country representatives and other ridiculous things.

like England's biggest shame, getting nil pwa due to a major gaff

this is just my fave performance ever, it was just so insane
 
Australia has an entry again this year

> not even born in Australia
> Australia not even anywhere near Europe

I try to bring up My Lovely Horse from Father Ted whenever people talk about Eurovision
 
I miss Sir Terry getting drunker and drunker as the show goes on and ranting about political voting. It's just not the same without him.

I love Eurovision, it's campy bullshit and terrible pop songs where you get drunk with your friends, yell at the TV because Europe has terrible taste in everything, and take nothing seriously. It is an absurd accident of history that it even exists.

Verka Seduchka is my absolute favorite entry ever because it's everything Eurovision should be: gay as fuck, completely absurd, and joyfully unserious. My partner and I literally screamed when she got in the cab in the skit on Tuesday.

I am sad Disco Leonard Cohen didn't make it to the finals, because it was hilarious and the staging was perfect.

 
So Sweden is the only Nordic country that made it to the finals. Sweden is pretty much starting with 48 points. ESC Gothenburg 2017?
