Le France: douze points
Eurovision Song Contest 2008. Horrible. Just horrible. Probably as horrible as any other year - but I can’t say I have watched the show for years, so I wouldn’t really know… There was this one song that caught my attention, though. It definitely did not win - but my personal vote goes to Le France. Douze points! [Twelve points!]
Sebastien Tellier sings the song Divine with this quirky, laid-back performance while embracing a big plastic ball of the world filled with helium. Helium which he inhales during the song of course. Watch the performance:
…or the official video for the song Divine:
Other Tellier songs:
La Ritournelle
L’Amour et la Violence
La Dolce Vita
I guess I have to learn French now.

Did you watch the ESC last night? I remember when we watched it together having a sleepover at my place - giving points for charisma, outfit and all. I wasn’t able to create the same enthusiasm yesterday unfortunately. Hehe.

No ESC for me, went to a consert in stead…but I watched some of it the day after to se how it went….how did Maria do?
Eusovision-sleepover goes down in history as one of the most successful sleepovers known to man! One of the ones in Melindas basement somes in as a close second!

Maria did a decent job and ended up as #5. But I find her song quite boring, so: France 12 points no matter!
Karaoke and face masks. Brilliant.
