You should be ashamed of yourselves for doing that. I realise it was ironic and a dig at the Eurovision System but still....

So they went with Father Ted's "My Beautiful Horse" then?

Why would any sane person put themselves through this programme?

They went with a singing puppet of a Turkey and lyrics like;

Drag acts and bad acts and Terry Wogan’s wig
Mad acts and sad acts, it was Johnny Logan’s gig


Why do I like it? Because it's an entertaining train-wreck of Europeaness. Campest of the camp, butchest of the butch. Sheer Brilliance and fecking hilarious.

So it was.

Actually that version and video is just about spot on for a mega Eurovision monster hit.

The Irish stopped winning it when they realised that the winner hosted it the following year and it was costing them fortunes.

True Story.

Johnny "Just Another Day" Thingmy was responsible for about 3/16th of the countries debt that year.

Didn't some band called Lordy win it the other year with "The Klingon Waltz"


or something else.
