Here we go, 25 minutes until Eurovision 2015 kicks off in Austria.

Get the drinks in, it's going to be a long one!

Hmm, this guy's voice is a bit like Michael McDonald's . It's catchy and another one that could get lots of points.

Like Australia a lot, has it been on the radio quite a bit? Surely if they are special guests I.e. only in this 60th year, you shouldn't be able to vote for them? Confused.

This IS the best thing tonight though... bastards

The Eurovision woman on radio 4's media show waffled about Australians really loving Eurovision and bringing the world together not just Europe. I guess they figured that when you let Israel, Libya and Azerbaijan in, you can't really refuse anyone.

alteredimages · 23/05/2015 21:10

Not being in Europe has never been an issue for Morocco or Israel. Cut the Aussies some slack!

Raahh · 23/05/2015 21:10

Australia have taken this way too seriously.

it's meant to be shit, you loons

RedToothBrush · 23/05/2015 21:11

Is Australia win they get to pick which country to stiff with host it.

CalamitouslyWrong · 23/05/2015 21:11

If Australia win, they're not allowed to host it. A European country has to. Apparently. (Yet Israel and Azerbaijan were allowed to host it).

It was awfully good singing then by the Oz bloke.

dillite · 23/05/2015 21:12

Wait, Morocco has been in Eurovision?

A belgian estate agent

GooodMythicalMorning · 23/05/2015 21:12

Oh no Belgiums is horrible.

dillite · 23/05/2015 21:12

Those white outfits are seriously unflattering.

Laureline · 23/05/2015 21:12

France was bad but come on, Armenia was even worse!

ilovesooty · 23/05/2015 21:12

This is growing on me.

HarryLimeFoxtrot · 23/05/2015 21:12

You can be in Eurovision if you are a member of the European Broadcasting Union (Australia are an associate member).

cashewnutty · 23/05/2015 21:12

My DD's (age 17 and 22) like this. One for the young'uns.

TrashcanMan · 23/05/2015 21:13

I lived there until recently, they LOVE it, show it live, I was the edit getting up at dawn last year to watch. They don't get the politics though so they think it's a wacky show with no reason for the winners. Aussies take every competition seriously

CalamitouslyWrong · 23/05/2015 21:13

I don't get the hate. He's singing about dying tomorrow and lying down on the stage. What's not to like?

RedCrayons · 23/05/2015 21:13

It's quite catchy.
It's a bit 'performance art' though.

Raahh · 23/05/2015 21:13

'Wicked ways down below'

TrashcanMan · 23/05/2015 21:14

Ooh, new favourite I think!

HarryLimeFoxtrot · 23/05/2015 21:14

I think this might be worse than Armenia. Don't think we'll be in Brussels next year.
