The Silliest of Eurovision 2009

I just experienced 20 minutes of inexplicable joy reading about and watching videos for The Guardian’s picks of the silliest Eurovision entries of 2009. The video above is the entry from the Czech Republic. [The Guardian]

    I don’t know why they keep doing that stupid thing, it has an audience of 10 people, all from eastern europe anyway… Time to move on!

    Hot leather-clad violin-playing Gypsy beehive !!!

    But only with the sound off…

    Almost makes me ashamed to be both Czech and Rom. I guess my reaction is like that of an African-American watching a re-creation of a minstrel show… even if the performers are actually Afro-American, it’s still kinda embarrassing.

    However, at least the music was better than I’d expected, it was positive in attitude, and the lady fiddler with the beehive looks pretty hot!

    Actually, these songs are the best in all the show. I just watch the whole show for those “gems” like this one and that Bulgarian song yesterday… just laughed my head off.

    Audience of 10 people?

    It’s the most watched TV show in Europe. The official viewing figure estimate is 100 million worldwide.

    Mind you, that’s for the final. This lot’s antics didn’t get that far.

    Thank you, John.
    To say that no one watches the Eurovision is the same as saying that Football “isn’t that popular.”

    The Eurovision Songfestival is Camp, Fake, Bizarre, a thing on its own that seems to exist outside the dimensions and reality of life itself. At one time it was created to encourage cultural unity in Europe, but it has grown straight outside European culture. It does not represent Europe- Okay- if you think Europe is weird, then it does represent Europe. But it even has contestants from outside Europe and it is also seen outside europe. So why they call it Euro – vision is beyond me. It is viewed by lots of people, yet it has a kind of songs and a form of presentation that you will see nowhere else.

    Peace- Frieden Shalom Paix and we all go to liev toegether in funny costumes laaalala!
