Eurovision

The Swiss entry for the Eurovision semifinals is called 'Vampires are alive' by a band called DJ BoBo. It must be the cheesiest thing I have ever seen. Sorry Switzerland, but what were you thinking? Apparently it is a favourite to win! Amazing. My favourites so far have been Bulgaria (drumming, chain mail, lavish use of quarter tones) and Serbia (KD Lang-alike surrounded by leggy models). Oh, and Georgia was impressive too. There is a lot of leather clothing being worn generally.

Also, randomly, I had to buy some emergency tights from Boots today, because I got a ladder. On the packet it said they were imbued with the property of 'light shaping'.

It's so cheesy and tacky and ridiculous it's actually brilliant. It's the only song I've heard because I happened to be in the living room while it was on.

It was sort of wonderul in its badness and lack of shame.

I was translating the lyrics for my roommates as they sang and they thought I was making them up. It was so awesome.
