Eurovision

I've just watched the first of the semi-finals for the Eurovision song contest. There was a time when I found the whole contest most puzzling. How could cultured people groups, who have given us so much high art, revel in kitsch and glitz? Then I realised that we all need a bit of relief from time to time. Can't have Herbert von Karajan without Benny and Bjorn.

So, who will I vote for on the SBS website? (At least, who will I vote for once the server recovers from too many people trying to access it?) I contemplated voting for the Netherlands because they put forward someone who can actually sing, but ultimately the singing turkey from Ireland has won my heart.
