Thank you, whoever did the table -- I was dreading it! But let's be fair -- The Eurovision song contest is still taken seriously by lots of people...although I think it definitely gets campier by the year. I do have it on personal knowledge (oral history at work) that in the 50s and 60s in England, it really was a big deal -- and the songs submitted were chosen by popular vote -- the BBC played them and took polls! I still rate it better entertainment than the Oscars!
