FabSwingers.com forum: Eurovision... love to hate it!!

I grew up watching the Eurovision up until I was a teenager and it wasn't cool enough. I rediscovered it in my 20s. I just love the cheesiness, tackiness, campness and some songs are not even that bad!

Will you be watching? Do you have a favourite Eurovision song?

It was a big thing in our house too sweet. I still love to watch it but I'm afraid I'm on my own in my house my kids have no interest at all. My fave song has to have been Johnny Logan - What's another year !!

Yes I grew up with it too. Still enjoy watching it but don't agree with neighboring voting tactics, dampens the joy of it.

Lickie Manor

Niamh Kavanagh - In Your Eyes - 1993

I believe this is the most beautiful of ballads ever presented in the history of the Eurovision competition, sung exquisitely.

I think this is the best package of song and voice in the history of the competition. Refresh yourself...

When the kids were younger we used to get friends and their kids around for the evening.

Started early with BBQ and garden games (oh the weather was so much nicer then!) , then in to the telly, lots of craic, slagging the acts, betting on the 'nil points'.

Great memories

It hasn't been a song contest for years. It's all politics and I'm sure Vlad is watching - he likes the ladies.
