Live in the present and shape the future, do not be casting lingering looks to the distant past for the past has passed away, never again to return.
Who said that?

I watch it! I even bake a special Eurovision cake for the occasion and what's more I did that this year even though no-one else was home... a tradition is tradition!
I thought that the Netherland's song was best but I voted for the UK since it was unusually half-way decent and the lass is from my "home" county.
Iceland gave Holland 12 points I believe, though according to the papers the popular vote went to Poland but the Judges rated Poland so low that the average score gave them no points at all.

Google says its Subramanya Bharathi

As for the Eurovision winner, at least Conchita is a drag act and not a real person so to speak. I think the whole beard thing freaks people out. Dame Edna would never dream of having even a single hair showing!
