We do watch it most years but I do wonder why as it's a puzzle that I can never work out!!! The songs I quite like don't do so well and yet others seem to do better. Is there such a variance of music taste across 42 nations in this internet world. Perhaps taste doesn't come into it as most of the songs entered would hardly be considered as good commercial songs. National and geographical allegiance obviously play a big part which clearly works to the UK's disadvantage. Am I really saying we are billy no mates!!! It does make you wonder if the likes of Adele or Ed Sheeran entered the competition whether they would do any better? You can just imagine their agents saying to them "whatever you do, don't volunteer for Eurovision" 
To win the competition seems to be something of a poison chalice so I hope Portugal can afford to host it next year.
