		<description><![CDATA[Last night I finally got a copy of this year&#8217;s Eurovision album. Here are my preliminary thoughts: Sweden &#8211; Popular (Eric Saade) I kinda hope (and suspect) that last year&#8217;s Manboy will be Eric Saade&#8217;s Ring, Ring, i.e. the song that didn&#8217;t get through Swedish selection, only to be followed up by another attempt which [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=euromelbourne.wordpress.com&amp;blog=10817001&amp;post=203&amp;subd=euromelbourne&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Somehow, Albania made their choice and didn&#8217;t bother to tell me. I feel slighted. They chose a song called &#8216;K&#235;nga ime&#8217; by Aurelia Ga&#231;e. I&#8217;m not sure quite what to make of the song on first hearing; it&#8217;s kind of modern Bond Theme. I think I may like it, although it does get a little [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=euromelbourne.wordpress.com&amp;blog=10817001&amp;post=193&amp;subd=euromelbourne&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Swiss are the first to choose a song for D&#252;sseldorf. They&#8217;ve gone with Anna Rossinelli&#8217;s &#8216;In Love for a While&#8217;. It&#8217;s certainly inoffensive. But not to an offensive degree. It&#8217;s enjoyable without being particularly memorable, is what I&#8217;m saying. See what I mean? Actually, the more I think about it, the more I think [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=euromelbourne.wordpress.com&amp;blog=10817001&amp;post=189&amp;subd=euromelbourne&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

Technically, it officially began a while ago, but the first actual announcement about a performer or a song has been announced. Dino Merlin will represent Bosnia &#38; Herzegovina in May. All I know about Dino Merlin is that he&#8217;s a Eurovision recidivist, having represented Bosnia &#38; [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=euromelbourne.wordpress.com&amp;blog=10817001&amp;post=181&amp;subd=euromelbourne&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Although the official Eurovision website doesn&#8217;t say anything about it, it would seem that Jessy Matador is definitely taking Allez! Ola! Olé! to Oslo. I kinda hope it&#8217;s not true, given how terrible the song sounds in the YouTube clip below, but even then it probably won&#8217;t be the worst thing to go.

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s kind of like Sophie&#8217;s Choice, only not as tragic. And you&#8217;re probably not going to need tissues. It&#8217;s not a bad song per se, but it does have more than a touch of the Michel Legrands about it. And Michel Legrand at his most indulgent. Here&#8217;s Harel Skaat (who had been previously chosen to [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=euromelbourne.wordpress.com&amp;blog=10817001&amp;post=162&amp;subd=euromelbourne&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

I can&#8217;t say I&#8217;m particularly surprised; the guy comes off as a first rate skeez.
