[Madison]

WAKE UP @Madison ISRAEL'S ON.

Don’t worry - I’ve already got my dancing shoes on.

 

[D5K]

Wake up @Madison

This better not be like whatever Eighties Israel entry it was where two or three people went insane flicking themselves off and it was really just FINE.

 

[COB]

Oh thank god, this has some life to it!

 

[ButterTart]

She's got a nice face, although her eyes are so far apart she makes Sarah Michelle Gellar look like a cyclops.

 

[Penelope]

Was Mr Datz one of the backing dancers for Ofra Haza? He looks like a Hannibal Lecter version of an Israeli backing vocalist of years past.

 

[dmlaw]

Prime contender for boob rate here.

 

[Penelope]

God this really is EVERYTHING I'VE EVER FUCKING WANTED for the last hour though!

I'm watching this on silent because listening to E Honda grunt is legitimately more tuneful than anything I've heard so far.

I believe the Finnish singer may be about to perform the Hundred Hand Slap.

Be sure to get this BANGER on at some point!

 

[Iguana]

Why is the backing singer holding onto her own arse for dear life? Is she PROLAPSING?

They've probably not been allowed any comfort breaks during all the hosts' waffling - I'd have been inside out by this point

 

[Iguana]

And now FISTING dance moves!

 

[D5K]

That grew on me as it went on

Why are they letting the backing singers have the only good part of the song? That's the opposite to what you're meant to do.

Well if the Moon is allowed to enter contests that can’t be far away

Who does she think she is? Do you reckon they're real?

 

[Penelope]

Why can I not dispel the sense that I'd have sex with the speccy tachey one

Let’s divide Germany up again. It’s for its own good.
