Oh booo. I was looking forward to Eurovision week.

Plus Ben Liam and Jones are in favour of Eurovision and I think Vanessa would be as well.

…I’m fine also with whatever theme you choose next, Jake…so long as it’s not Eurovision or the 1960’s….I’m generally finding them all equally difficult anyway…

Omg Maru let me introduce you to a glorious world!

Every year most countries in Europe (and Australia, because you know, they’re super close lol) enter a song for big a music contest performed on TV. And then all the countries vote for their fave song.

Think glitter, think camp, think trashy outfits and cringey choreography, terrible songs and hilarious commentary from Graham Norton.

It’s also how ABBA and Celine Dion got famous (they won their years)

But Eurovision is such an easy theme. All you have to do is go on YouTube. Loads of songs to choose from.

The best thing about Eurovision is they have so many different kind of songs.
You can easily find one to to match your dance.

…one of the things that I’ve loved so far is looking at song genres that I might not generally do so much so Eurovision/the 60’s/whatever is chosen is honestly fine for me, Vanessa…and I do love the contest, so I’m sure that I’ll enjoy recapping on some forgotten entries…
