content: Austria should definitely have won. I really didn't like Israel's song, but whatever.The good news is Germany got 4th place! Wooooo! We didn't suck balls this year. We even had a pretty good song this year.I still think it would be hilarious/interesting to see San Marino won, as they would probably double the population if they decided to host it there.

content: Hmmm, yeah, Israel won but Israel is in Asia rather than Europe. As for Australia taking partAnyway, something you might not know, the European Broadcasting Union anthem is a piece called Te Deum and was written by Marc-Antoine Charpentier, this is what they normally play:However, it's played at the wrong tempo, this is how it's meant to be played:All links are of course safe for work.
