I wasn't sure what to rate this so I went down the middle and gave it 5 stars which basically is for the good production which is typical of the BBC.
If however I were to rate it for the songs, I personally would give it a big fat zero.
In years gone by, the Eurovision song contest provided songs which are long remembered years after the event. Sandy Shaw's puppet on a string, Cliff Richard's congratulations and Dana's all kinds of everything are prime examples, and of course the likes of Abba, brotherhood of man, and Lulu.
Alas those days are long gone, and what we have today are totally forgettable songs that have quite poor melodies and rather lack luster lyrics that seem to be thrown together as long as they rhyme.
this seemed to be the case in Euro: you decide. Seriously? does anyone with even an ounce of passion for music really believe that any of the contending songs are going to give the UK even the remotest chance of getting much above no points ( I don't know the French way of spelling it) But this is the case for most of todays songs. The panel of judges seemed to have waxed lyrical about the songs and I was shouting at the screen for them to sing them if they think they are that good. If they were in a position to take up that challenge I think they would be stumped because like most songs of some which are okay while you are listening to them and you forget them 5 minuets later, these songs were bone churning awful.
If the UK is to regain its pride and win the contest or at least be in the top 3, then we have got to get writers akin to the likes of the writers who provided the songs I listed above. But while the UK carries on churning out rubbish like the songs featured in this show, we don't stand any chance.
