Oooh Dr Phil is dealing with queerness and Xtianity!

right now (West coast)

Must mark papers....must find out if this guy’s as heterocentric as I suspect.

I’m torn...we need more moustache men on TV, but.....

Time for a run-off

Here’s the latest results:

1958 - Italy - Domenico Modugno - Nel blu di pinto di blu (Volare)
8 (20.0%)

1973 - Spain - Mocedades - Eres tu
6 (15.0%)

1974 - Sweden - ABBA - Waterloo
13 (32.5%)

1998 - Israel - Dana International - Diva
6 (15.0%)

2003 - Turkey - Sertab Erener - Everyway that I can
7 (17.5%)

That means that Diva and Eres tú are tied for last place. So polls will now be open for 2 hours;
be sure to vote for which of these two songs is your favourite--don’t vote for which to eliminate.

[Poll #594122]

Wow, here's the results--by a whisker!

1973 - Spain - Mocedades - Eres tu
8 (47.1%)

1998 - Israel - Dana International - Diva

Sadly, we must bid adieu to my 2nd favourite* Spanish language song from the Contest:
Mocedades’ Eres tú

Dana International moves on to the next round. Viva la Diva! New poll shortly



*2003’s Dime by Beth is my favourite. Though she performed it lamely on the night

Congratulations: Best Eurovision Song Ever - Le double double

We’re down to just 4 songs. Will the bitterness of the Mocedades posse lead to strategic voting? Ah, gwan, take a stand, place your vote. Polls close in 1 day
