When you find it hard to choose among the best ones, why not choose the absolute worse you can think of? Introducing Jørn Hoel:
Retro Sunday
Retro Sunday: Interval Act 1963
On a day like this it’s kinda hard to keep focus on Eurovision related stuff, as we have just spent the last five hours on the couch watching the Cycling World Championship. Only to see that annoying little twat Cav snatch the victory in front of the lot, again! But we have to admit it was deserved today, what a team effort from the Brits. And as it turns out, the peeps from the UK knows how to combine the best of two worlds, bicycling in Eurovision! Watch and rejoice:

Retro Sunday: Albania 2009

Once, about 11 years ago, you were actually the winners, peepz:
Retro Sunday: Norway 1981
In Norway, we treasure our losers and nil points almost as highly as our successes and victories. No less than ten times have we finished last, four of those times with not a single point to spare from any of our fellow contestants. 1981 was one of those years:
Retro Sunday: Power to the music
Summer moved on, and our Eurovision timeout is over. We’re back with power:
Retro Sunday: Denmark 1989
The perfect Eurovision song is one that makes you happy, shiny and ecstatic. The perfect Eurovision song comes from Denmark:
Retro Sunday: Italy 1979
It’s time for the best hair in Eurovision ever. Here’s Italy 1979:
Retro Sunday: Ireland 1987
It’s the morning after. GEE bloggers are suffering from severe post Haba Haba injuries after practicing that dance just a couple of times more than we should have. We need a debrief. We need something calm. And soothing. Something that won’t make us throw our arms in the air. Thank you, Johnny Logan. You are almost like a meditative yoga class:
