Oh Dear Constant Reader, I've been very lax about Eurovision (and about keeping you updated, sorry!).
I was pretty saddened by the results of the semi-finals with many of my faves missing out to some truly appalling entries *cough* Poland *cough*. But perhaps there is a silver lining in that this means this year's UK entry has less intense competition!
And for once, excusing Scooch who I had to love because... well... they were Scooch, the UK entry is officially my favourite song of the contest!
Molly's "Children of the Universe"
I also liked Finland's entry. Very pop.
Softengine - "Something Better"
Though Austria's entry, very popular on Twitter, didn't do it for me on the night of the 2nd semi-final those songs I much preferred were mostly eliminated and thus the fact it was well sung wins it some brownie points.
Conchita Wurst - "Rise Like A Phoenix"
I am generally a big fan of Ukraine's Eurovision songs. This year is no different, the stage act seems to reuse a set piece from "Be My Valentine!"
Maria Yaremchuk - "Tick - Tock"
She wasn't my pick from Melodifestivalen but Sanna Nielsen's "Undo" has grown on me. One of the best songs at this year's contest.
