That's the one. The country that wins has to host the following year so no-one wants to win as it's expensive to host. - LMS May 3, 06:02 8
- Do the people in Europe actually enjoy the competition and songs? -- (edited) - Krusty May 3, 06:06 7
  - The UK entry this year is a standard catchy pop song. If we perform badly the UK is still in the doghouse. Brexit probably won't help either. -- (link) - LMS May 3, 06:12 [youtube] 4
    - That seems too normal. Not good but normal. ;-) -- nm* - Krusty May 3, 06:14 3
      - That pretty much sums up the quality of our songs each year. Israel's winning entry was good. -- nm - LMS May 3, 06:28 2

        Two words: Conchita Wurst. -- nm - Robert Barontheon May 3, 06:53
  - the top 5 or so are usually legitimately good songs - Reagen May 3, 06:08 1
    - Yeah, I kind of enjoy watching once it gets to that point. -- nm - Dark Callisto May 3, 06:22
