The Ark’s Eurovision entry
The Eurovision contest in Europe is probably one of the kitschiest music contests in the world. I dare say, that it probably is the kitschiest. The bands that perform here are some of the best and worst examples of europop.
Despite it’s reputation though I have to say that Eurovision is one of those trainwrecks that you still want to watch. It’s like a road accident — you know you’ll probably lose your lunch by the sight but you still want to look. Even Morrissey, the king of irony, sees something weirdly appealing about it. he has mentioned that he wants to become England’s entry to Eurovision.
I blogged about The Ark a couple of posts back. Well, the band actually participated in the last Eurovision. Watch The Ark in all their gay glory in this Youtube video.

God is on everyone’s side … and in the last analysis, he is on the side with plenty of money and large armies.
