If I was writing a song for Eurovision I think it would start "Everyone hates us and we don't care"  :)

We're not very popular with most European nations so the song could be the best in the history of songs and it would make no difference :D

On the similar theme to Scunners, I somehow think that the rest of those competing will think "Oh so you think you can get one the the most successful song writers of all time to write your song and that way you are bound to win. Well you can "sod off" (to coin a phrase) - we give you NIL points

Fraid not H, I've heard it a lot but as I reply to this I cant remember anything about it (other than the singer is a very pretty girl) I cant even remember what it's called. 8)

Boom bang a bang by Lulu  ( 1969)

La la la la la by Massiel ( 1968)
