eurovision favorites

Oh, I am still so stinkin' jealous that Steve the Lawyer will be at Eurovision this weekend. I love it not for the reason that Europe loves it, but rather because it's so over-the-top BAD that it's hilarious. Anyway, here's an overview of some of this year's more...special entries:

Latvia's entry is one of the more remarkable things I've seen. It involves pirates:


Bosnia = 16 kinds of CRAZYTOWN. And four exceptionally large bridal gowns. Which is particularly awesome when it gets to the Sir-Mix-a-Lot portion of the song:


Belgium entered a song that isn't actually in a real language:

It didn't make the finals.

Romania defies explanation:

It won't win. There aren't any costumes.

Croatia is like Johnny Cash does the Balkans. Oh, my word:


Georgia. Georgia. Georgia.


Portugal entered a chick with bad bangs and purple hair. She appears to be singing the theme song to a musical about the Lisbon earthquake of 1755:


Russia's guy sings while laying flat on his back on the floor:


You must watch Azerbaijan. What the???


Don't you know it's going to be a rocking Saturday night in Belgrade?!?
