General post-Eurovision thoughts

hnpccA quick link to Eurovision from a fashion perspective. And a mention of Eurovision the Movie. Which seriously, no. Please, no.
A spoof musical is good, but a movie would just be wrong.
More seriously though, thoughts for next year. Norway should send Boyzvoice, who totally rock. And who, just incidentally, had some bloody good (if slightly wrong) songs. Still, what is Eurovision without at least one wrong song?
The UK needs to rediscover their heritage and appear painted blue, wearing tartan and drumming[1] while singing in 10 part coal-mining harmony. Either that or repeat the word "party" ad infinitum with a doof beat underneath. Either would probably get you higher than second last.
Ireland need someone who can sing. The song was OK, maybe they could use it again next year seeing as none of us actually really heard it this year?
Belgium - whose turn is it next year? I think that both sides should send a rep, and force them to sing a duet about peace, harmony, love and cute furry kittens in at least three languages (actually more if possible, my drinking game has "language change" as one of the criteria). I won't make them wear the kittens though, that's for France.
Finland should send the ex-singer from Nightwish. I'd watch her, I love her voice. I don't care what song they get her to sing.
Sweden should send ABBA again. Failing that, the A-teens. But don't let them write their own song, see if you can get Benny and Bjorn to do that.
Austria can send whoever they want, they've made me laugh the last four years. And you think the UK's not taking this seriously...
Greece should send an Australian. That would give us someone to barrack for. ;-)
Any more suggestions? I haven't even started thinking about Eastern Europe yet... ;-)
[1]eh, just make up bits if it's not your actual heritage. We do, all the time.

Loving this already!

My mind worries me at times...
