Eurovision Song Contest 2008

Well, looks like my prediction was way off but with the current situation of political voting none of the decent songs can win. Besides from my prediction, Serbia certainly continued the current Eurovision trend of putting on an excellent production although why does the hosting country every year pick presenters with the most annoying voices? Wogan was on top form commentating for the UK as ever, although sadly it's currently unknown whether he'll be doing next years contest.

Moving on to the songs, it's usually this long after the contest that you personally realise which song should have won. Last year was one exception however after hearing Ukraine's entry on the night I was without doubt that song was the best. This year my opinion is split between Bosnia & Herzegovina and Iceland's entry titled 'This is my Life'. Both are excellent songs and it's well worth listening to them if you haven't already.

Eurovision always seems to attract a fair amount of abuse every year but frankly, at least when compared to the rest of the stuff filling the schedules these days, TV doesn't get much better than this!
