Something is bugging me about Eurovision this year.
It’s not the fact that the thoroughly bewildering Ukranian entry failed to win, nor is it the fact that the British entry somehow escaped the ignominy of “null points”. My brain was even eventually able to cope with the Hungarian blues entry and the cocktail jazz stylings of the German entry, whilst Terry Wogan’s whimsically surreal heckling seemed if anything surprisingly honest…..
No, the thing which has totally done my head in is the fact that the contest would appear to have been won by Ricky Wong from the ABC’s “We Can be Heroes”.
Chris Lilley as “Ricky Wong”
Serbian Eurovision winner Marija Serifovic
oh, and there was also the small matter of what appeared to be a quotation of material from the Residents album “Tweedles” in both the introduction to the Belarus entry as well as during the break in France’s effort…….i swear i heard it, although it may have just been Eurovision eroding my brainstem
