Don't Tell Mum!

Wow! Eurovision is over again. And what a result - a Lesbian boarding school wins against a trash Drag Queen. Look sharp - unlike the German commentator surmises this is not the final win of an Eastern state, but the Gay Community reclaims their red-letter-day. Even the motto and decoration of the Finnish hosts was camp enough: "True Fantasy".

Besides, the ESC finally is an total European Mash-Up: Lithuania presented Italian tenors and Albania a classic bariton, some countries came with Hispano-Songs (f.e. Norway), the winning song is a French chanson. And the best with Marija Serifovic is that "Generation Otpor" did not only fight themselves the way to Democracy but now sung themselves the way to Europe. Well deserved!

 

So much fo the official program. But the best was the sideshow:

• Best band & best show: Apocalyptica and the additional freakshow ballet.
• Best self-mockery: The Isralian host when telling the points: "This land has pushed the button".
• Best voting of a country: Norway
• Best tongue-in-cheek: The dutch host "xx points go to Kelly Osbourne, umm, Serbia"
• Most handsome eyecatcher: Official Host Mikko Leppilampi
• Even more handsome: The Swedish host, who was friendly enough to present the Icehockey results as well

So don't worry. At least every artist can at least go on tour in his direct neighbouring countries. Maybe except of Ireland and UK. Ya basta.

 

By the way, I bet I know where most of the after show parties ended, at the infamous and great Lost&Found Bar. Don't tell Mum!
