Eurovision Song Compitition 2007...Oh, the Humanity

I wish I'd seen these during Blogahon, they'd have kept me ranting for hours.

The first is England's Entry, the second Switzerland's. Which is more awful? You decide. As a Buffy fan, though, I have a special place in my heart for the Swiss Vid.

OK, given that the rest of you (Floston excepted) seemed to find them equally poor, I figured I'd rant between them to clear my pallete, kind of like saltines at a wine tasting. Only I haven't even been able to finish the Swedish entry. I mean, vampires are cool and all, but they shouldn't make me giggle uncontrollably. I just feel so bad for them. That, and I keep picturing Spike seeing this video and just getting seriously, ultraviolently pissed. I mean, how could he not? It's like, vampires, the gay broadway musical. Every so often I despair at the lack of refinement so prevalent in our culture, and envy England and the like. And then I remember how hard it is to take that seriously, and realize I'm American after all. ( c;

OK, so the one bit with the guy dropping down and the trenchcoat being lifted by the fall, that was alright. I give props for that half-second of film.

Sadly, I think this one wins my vote for less awful. OK, fifteen vampires do the bunny pose, complete with fangs, and do a spin, and I'm left giggling again. Sigh. And for the record, no, vampires are NOT alive. Most cultures agree on that much. It's pretty much in the definition. Feh.

re: vampires not being alive: That was everyone's first response when we saw this. Right before the gaping and hysterical laughter.
