Back in the day we used to get really stoned and watch Eurovision with the sound off. Magic! So funny. I can't imagine what a letdown it would be to actually hear the music.

One small step for me
Australia are an 'associate member' of the EBU. That doesn't give automatic rights to be in the Eurovision, but IIRC they applied to be in it just for one year at first, and then I guess it was really popular down there so they've stayed in it, but not sure if they have to apply every year or what.

Perhaps people are able to differentiate between a singer and a government?
This is a singing contest, where the best song/performer should win.
Edited to add:
I've just listened to the song, it's not bad. (We don't normally watch Eurovision, so I haven't seen it before.).

As I said, I've just heard the song. There was a huge amount of applause in the arena from the audience.

I've been a fan since 1991. I've had to tolerate a lot of downs alongside the ups. I almost lost patience during the "awkward years" as it transformed from a TV show to an arena event. I gritted my teeth during the novelty years even televoting almost killed the thing stone dead.
This year has been the toughest as a fan that I've ever known. Of course I'll watch it. I'll do my best to enjoy it. But I'll be happy to see the back of it.

I wish you luck with your choice as you are going to need itEvery year we pick a song, buy a curry and the song that comes lowest pays for the curry.
Mrs V is currently 2 nil up as she chooses wisely, whereas I tend to vote for something bonkers that I genuinely quite like.
She's gone for We Will Rave this year.
I chose Netherlands.

However, I've been gardening today and even cleaned up the BBQ drum, bought some burgers and all dem tings needed for burgers so the Rustlers curse shall be broken.

Honestly Eurovision is one of the few times of the year I really just try enjoy the show and this is a year it’s become so difficult to, simply because of the mess of everything around it. Might actually be the first year in a very long time im not gonna tune in at all. What a mess it’s been, EBU doing themselves absolutely no favours at all.

The latest updates include:
*Norway's score announcer has withdrawn
*Ireland pulled out of the dress rehearsal
*France cut their dress rehearsal short
I understand crisis talks are in place.
My fandom of the show, 30 years and more, is at breaking point.

They've not corrected the numbers after DQing Netherlands. I have.
They're leaving the numbers as they were..so as not to confuse voters.

There are tonnes of rumours. It really doesn't look good.
I've seen a clip of the Dutch vote spokesperson during rehearsals sarcastically ask "Oh can we be allowed to give our votes ? Where is the rule book?"
