Loreen wins Eurovision 2012 for Sweden!

Oh my god! How amazing was it???? I was on the edge of my seat feeling tied up in knots as the scores rolled in. Could it be true? Could Sweden win for the first time since 1999? Could the mysterious, amazing Loreen go all the way? YES, YES, YES!!! It was surreal to watch. [...]

Loreen’s “Euphoria” – the Zoo version! Unmissable!

An English guy has put together a wonderfully fun video to support Sweden’s Loreen at Eurovision. The Zoo Version of Euphoria. Paradise Wildlife Park in the UK – you are fabulous! Thank you!!!! Let’s hope everyone gives Loreen 12 points!!!!

Who are we voting for in Eurovision 2012?

It’s only a week away….Eurovision 2012. The artists are in Baku rehearsing for their big moment and the publicity campaigns are in full swing. There are a few strong contenders this year but the vibe seems to be that Sweden is in with a strong chance. Loreen’s “Euphoria” had a dream run in Melodifestivalen, the [...]

It’s that time of year again…

Melodifestivalen 2012 is underway and the first semifinal had a pretty cool opening sequence. Not quite up to 2009 standards (my favourite year) but not too shabby! Tonight is the second semifinal and then we have the third, fourth, second chance final and of course, the final itself! Then you have to buy the CD [...]

The Top 25: It’s all about Eric!

Eric, Eric and more bloody Eric! I thought I’d take a look at the top search terms people have used to find this website in the last year. I’ve listed the Top 25 search terms below. There’s a very clear pattern: Eric Saade. Whether it’s Eric Saade being Gay or shirtless or nude…it seems the [...]

Eric Saade & Danny Saucedo … sharing a crush!

I have to thank my good friend James O’Brien for pointing out this piece of campness to me. Eric & Danny’s hijinks turned into a video montage to the tune of “Crush”. No doubt the conspiracy theorists will be beside themselves shouting “see, they ARE Gay, I knew it all along!” Good on Eric and Danny [...]

Stockholm is in my heart!

With the weather in Sydney being so shitty this week, I’ve mentally regressed to Stockholm mid-year. When the weather was beautiful and the people were out in the street. I wouldn’t mind beaming back there in the way-back machine for a few days while this bloody rain saturates Sydney! And speaking of the way-back machine, [...]

Le Kid – We Should Go Home Together

Since Le Kid’s fantastic album arrived in the post a few weeks ago, I’ve got a new favourite song on repeat! We Should Go Home Together is a classic slice of perfect pop from Le Kid. And the clip is uber-camp in the way that only Le Kid could pull off! Le Kid’s album “Oh [...]

Adam Tyler….brilliant music from the U.S.A. (no, really!)

On the final night of Stockholm Pride a few months ago, a performer took to the stage that I’d never heard of before. A queer electro-pop hunk named Adam Tyler. The first thought I had was “wow, he is soooo hot!” followed by “this music is really good.” He actually did a few covers of [...]
