With summer already on the way in the UK, so are the many celebrations and tournaments; including the eagerly anticipated Euro 2012!! (Come on England!) However, firstly i need to get out my frustrations about the Eurovision Song Contest! For all those that aren't aware, the Eurovision Song Contest is an annual contest involving members of the European Countries. Each year, the countries submit a song which is broadcast live, and viewers are able to vote for which countries song they like the best. This however is flawed, as people tend to vote for countries they are next to and have great political relations with i.e. Norwegian voters tend to vote for Finland having the best song etc.
Not only has this meant that the contest is not taken as seriously as it was before, but the UK brought in Engelbert Humperdinck as its representative! (Who?! I hear you ask.... EXACTLY!) This just shows how pointless these shows are becoming; only reason i turn on, is to watch Graham Norton's fantastic and hilarious commentary.
I do have to eat some humble pie this time, as this years winner was deservedly won. The club song is uber catchy and fits in great with the opening of Summer. Check it out below:
