Not all Eurovision is cheesy rubbish - occasionally the song contest throws up moments of genius, or things that are so bizarre that they are fascinating.
So here are my top Eurovision moments from recent years -
Sebastien Tellier - France 2008
How did this not win? The legend that is SebTel, a great tune and a wonderfully weird performance
Teapacks - Israel 2007
Gogol Bordello meets Rage Against the Machine. Plus anything else you want to chuck in!
Neil Hannon - Trafalgar
OK, so this doesn't really count as it wasn't a true Eurovision entry, but it's absolutely brilliant
Rufus - Estonia 2003
Just a really good song. No messing about. And they predicted correctly - 80's were coming back!
France Gall - France 1965
written by Serge Gainsbourg. Enough said.
