The only live clips I could find this close to the event were all rehearsals for the actual Eurovision event, and I didn't want to ruin the spectacular... so here is the promo clip. Classy isn't it.... Don't get the American flag though
I think this is France's best chance in years. it is just a typical summer hit song with an element of football chant, perfect for a World Cup summer. Could French translate to a win this year... well France hasn't won since 1977 and, forgive me if I am wrong, but the last song in any form of French that has won Eurovision was.... Celine Dion in 1988 (for Switzerland)
This is fairly long odds to win, at 124, but I am not ruling this out completely. It really depends on how drunk Europe is when it is time to vote and if I am anything to go by, this could be messy.
For the final Piece of Eurovision history for 2010... lets go to 1982 when the French broadcaster decided Eurovision had become a joke and refused to enter.... of we could turn back time 50 years to Jacqueline Boyer with 'Tom Pillibi'... wee wee wee (I head that said in the clip and had to quote it...)
thats all the songs for 2010.... OMG! that was painful
