Our brethren in blood in Iceland seems to have been very literally inspired by our party/end-of-high-school-celebration music style. Mike drop. Well, it works for me, but I would guess they wont win.

I'm sure the lyrics are "Never, never, never, never marry six foot three" in this one.

And so Latvia steps in to fill the role you would expect Iceland to have. Strange, not really taking off.

There has been a bunch of countries doing each other's styles this year, hasn't there?

Despite my misheard lyrics "never marry six foot three" joke, yes, it's one of the better ones. But I don't feel it'll win - it's not the energy to be a winner in this contest.

You see, it's another one.

The Netherlands doing France.

And now we have Finland doing Germany.

What's going on? Did they all agree to play "swapsies" this year or something?

Netherlands sounds a bit like a lot of other songs referring C'est La Vie. Didn't do too much for me.

Although, the way it goes up at the end "ich komm-air! Ich komm-air!" just sounds wrong for German. That's not how it's pronounced.

Yeah, Italy with its David Bowie tribute band.

But I like that they've insisted that the lyrics are shown with open captions.

Italy looks like Bowie and sounds like something from the 60s(Beatles?).
