my favorite Eurovision song ever:

[youtube=425,350]TXgaOTOCSuU[/youtube]
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXgaOTOCSuU

(Ukraine won in 2004, bitches!)

EDIT: WTF, according to Wikipedia this song is featured in GTA IV!

Wow, actually Ruslana hosts the Eastern European radio station in GTAIV

(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ef/Ruslana.jpg/419px-Ruslana.jpg)

this is depressingly the most interesting thing I've learned about GTAIV so far

Post by: Tieno on May 20, 2008, 09:29:20 AM
You didn't know that? I recognized her voice immediately in GTA4 and found it a nice touch, seeing as Niko and Ruslana are Ukranian.

I haven't heard a lot of the songs this year, but my vote goes to France, which is actually a cool and good song.

The Belgium song is starting to get on my nerves. At first I sort of liked it but now they're playing it so many times on TV it has reached that "annoying" fase.

France

I haven't played/won't play GTAIV. No interest. That is a nice touch, tho, for the reasons you state.

Damn, the quality was incredibly low. I feel like my ears have been violently raped or like when you eat too much fast-food and you feel all bloated and bad because of all the poison toxins in your body. Nothing I've seen so far comes even close to France.
