In which country do you live?
Belgium
How many years have you been watching the Eurovision Song Contest
First one I consciously remember was with Clouseau entering in 1991. I think '92 to '94 were off-years, but pretty loyal ever since!
Quickly, name three countries whose entries you generally like
Sweden, Netherlands, Ukraine
Carola or Amina - which do you wish had won?
Amina - it's the more endurable song. And would have made Charlotte 1999 - 25 years after ABBA, 15 after "Diggi-Loo..." - more symbolic
Do you know who Lotta Engberg is?
Svenska entrant for (Brussels!) 1987, whom EBU forced to change "Coca cola" to "Boogaloo" or something in her lyrics
What is your favourite winning song of the...
...2000s?
"My Number One"
...1990s?
"Nocturne"
...1980s?
"J'aime la vie"
...1970s?
"Tu te reconnaîtras"
...1960s?
"Poupée de cire, poupée de son"
Can you sing any of the winning songs from the 1950s?
Yes! Both "'n Beetje" and "Net als toen" are on my MP3 player, and are really quite catchy to a Dutch-speaker (though I can easily see why they're not to anyone else).
If you had a Eurovision song played at your funeral, which would it be?
"Lejla" seems the most appropriate purely going on the mood
Is CatCat's Bye Bye Baby the greatest Finnish song ever?
I'm not fully au fait with their entire history, but certainly of the ones I actively know, yes
Which is your favourite nil points entry ever? (You can pick Pierro and the Music Stars, Little My)
Remedios!
Rate the following out of 100...
(0 = Worse than Hitler, if you saw them on the other side of the road, you'd run up to them and push them in traffic
50 = Quite indifferent to them
100 = You'd throw yourself in front of traffic if you thought they would be impressed by it)
Carola

What is the most played Eurovision tune on your computer/mp3 player?
