[QUOTE="HB13DISH, post: 518981, member: 262829"] Tonight the Eurovision 2008 song contest will be broadcasted all over Europe and the Middle East. I used to enjoy it a lot, but over the past several years with the addition of so many new countries, it has become less enjoyable, at least for myself. It is flattering to hear most of the songs are either in English or they just add few lines in English. I just wish that they would sing their songs only in their own national language and be proud of it, instead of trying to win few points with a line or two sung in terrible English accent. Several channels on Hot Bird 13E broadcast this event, but I found that the best picture and sound quality is from the German channel ARD Das Erste. One thing I don't understand till now is why Italy stopped participating in this event over the past many years. Were they unhappy because they didn't win in a certain year and therefore decided to boycot it or what? They really had some of the best songs in the sixties and the seventies. [/QUOTE]
