At one point I thought Italy would be first, get banned for doing coke, and Iceland at 2 would be winners. But this’ll do. #EUROVISION

We’ve had the highest note in #eurovision and now the longest note. Coming up, the lowest note, which will cause the audience to lose control of their bowels! Stay tuned.

Very much enjoying #Eurovision. Anyone else? 🙋 There used to be so much more euro chat in the good old days of Twitter.

What does it take to make a successful #Eurovision song? And why is it that the UK can never seem to catch a break at a contest that it used to habitually win? If you'll indulge me in a little light musical theory, I have a possible explanation...
