Yep, it's time for what we Swedes used to refer to as "schlagerfinalen": the Eurovision Song Contest final.

A bunch of European countries have held numerous contests to select the single, special song they'll let represent their country, and today they compete against each-other live, in front of half a billion European viewers.

If you're not European, but still would like to check out the action, I recommend either Eurovisiontorrents.com or YouTube.

If you're Swedish, I recommend my mate Tomas' blog called schlagerkung. He's in Helsinki now, happily blogging away at this very moment and knows far more than is healthy to know about all things Eurovision.
