Cultures of Eurovision
Kieran Healy gives a droll account of the Eurovision song contest for the uninitiated. The strange thing is I remember getting genuinely excited about this in my youthful years.
"But in terms of kitsch, tackiness, geopolitical tension, and sheer entertainment value the U.S. has nothing, but nothing, to match the Eurovision Song Contest. The Eurovision is the common cultural bond uniting generations of Europeans, the continent’s one true collective ritual."
