Opening sequence is great this time! Giant Balalaika doing "Viva La Diva"!
Those presenters are comedians right? Like the Russian Alan Partridge?
Irish metal (to the Avril Lavigne value of metal).
Are Latvia shouting random russian words? I've got Vodka, Kulack. Mad twitchy rock kind of fun though in small doses I guess? I really would like to know what they're singing about though. Damm my lack of red button subtitles.
Poor presenter has been given a wedding request to make during the show.
Serbia have been on the funny biscuits. HAIR! Oh yes. THEY MUST WIN FOR THE HAIR. And the 8-bit graphics.
Slovakia, Poland, Cyprus - Sorry, er, what? Missed that doing something more interesting like staring at a towel. And what is with the blond women in white dresses? Are they compulsory this year?
Actually, Slovakia bloke looks a lot like Tony Livsey, BBC North West tonight sports reporter and former editor of the Sunday Sport. (True, all of it).
Denmark - Ronan Keating co-wrote. Well done. Stop grinning at the camera now.
Slovenia - Hiding! Good gimmick there Though he's so not playing that Cello. In a classcal-disco crossover sort of way I like it.
I'm really liking Paddy O'Connell, can we have him in Graham Norton turns out to be rubbish?
Hungary had his head lying on a woman's crotch right at the start. Looking at his top and dancing now I suspect she's safe though.
HE'S SKIPPING ALONG THE STAGE. Actually, this is so gay it's straight.
Azerbajan - aww, nice song, good performers, but they've been out-costumed by Armenia in the Crimean battle. Plus for a second seeing the bloke singer from the side I thought it was Omid Djalili. That was distracting.
Greece - was that a dance or sign language? Bit techno, good. Singer looks like Tim Allen though.
Moldova - is she dressed as her from Shrek? Better if it was just the prancing blokes, they're great. Not sure about the bloke at the back who appears to be wielding a colourful mop joyfully.
Albania - Paddy wan't joking about the green gimp. And two small vampires? With a woman dressed as a ballerina?
Small breakdancing vampires.
Ukraine! Kings of Eurovision again! Is she really saying "my sexy bum?" While being fondled by scantily clad disco roman centurions? And then randomly playing the drums? And hamster wheels? Ouch, flags, might be a bad plan in Russia.
Second proposal of the night!
Estonia - quite nice that, good arrangements on the now-ubiquitous strings. Extra points for double bass.
The Netherlands - Er "Love will make us glow in the dark?" You can get creams for that now. Really not sure what to make of the fake DJ large woman. Or the three middle-aged blokes singing. Bless.
Graham Norton also likes Portugal. Blimey.
