ESC doesn't exist. Sorry, I know it does really, I'm just ashamed of England's entry last year.

Alestorm should be the UK entry damnit!

Doing their cover of Latvia's 2008 entry.

Edit:

Such a shame Terry Wogan quit because of the Eastern countrys voting for each other. He made it funny.

When I hear Eurovision I think of so many weird things at once it's like an acid trip.

Seriously, anyone else get weird visions in their head when they hear the word, "Eurovision?"

As a Brit, literally no point to it now that Wogan's gone, and I could barely take it as it was. Also, I hate the idea that this is how the rest of Europe views the British music scene.

Oh good God yes. It might actually be good then!

I wasn't aware anybody actually watched this. I assumed there wasn't much of an attraction for people of Britain to watch sub par, cheesy euro-pop that wouldn't pass for music anywhere else and see their country get humiliated by being defeated by it.

As a Brit I definitely enjoy Eurovision, it's fun to watch, but I hate the political voting that goes on. However, considering this year we have a song written jointly by Diane Warren and Andrew Lloyd Webber. There is no way that we will get nil points this year (OK, we still won't win, but if we can get better than last year then surely it's worth it?).

Ah, come on, how can you be going so far downhill? You gave us ABBA, and they are still awesome even though they aren't together anymore, surely you can do well this year as well? Good luck guys, I'm rooting for the UK (naturally, as a Brit), but you guys get my full support too :D!

I hate the contest with a passion.

It became worse this year though: the Dutch entry is a bunch of retards.
