		The Eurovision Song Contest is an annual competition held among active member countries of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), in which participating countries each submit a song to be performed on live television; then proceed to cast votes for the other countries' songs, in order to find the most popular song in the competition.
		Countries may select their songs by any means they wish: whether it be an internal decision made by the participating broadcaster, or a public contest which allows the country's public to televote between several songs.
		The impact that the Contest has on the host city is inversely proportional to its size: in Riga 2003, the city centre was virtually taken over by Eurovision delegates as they spent their week in the Latvian capital.

		Unusually, Javine was the first UK Eurovision entrant since 2000 to have tasted chart success prior to the Contest, enjoying a number of hit singles such as 'Real Things' and 'Best of my Love'.
		However, none were any match for DJ Daz Sampson, half of the dance act Uniting Nations (of 'Out of touch' fame), who gave by far the most lively and enjoyable performance of the evening, and will now represent the UK with the rap song 'Teenage life'.

		Nicki French, United Kingdom’s Eurovision Song Contest 2000 participant, came to Cyprus this weekend as a guest star at the second semifinal of Cyprus’ “A song for Europe”, which was held on Sunday, February 12.
		Performing live her Eurovision entry “Don’t play that song again” and a dancing version of “Total eclipse of the heart”, Nicki impressed the audience and the viewers with her energy, her sparkle and her undoubting dynamism.
		I think the United Kingdom was very unpopular at that time, as it is now, and the song could have been quite usual for the contest.

		His winning song, 'Hold on to our love', is surprisingly good, if slightly old-fashioned - a gentle, guitar-led ballad in the same mould as 'Rock 'n' roll kids' (Ireland's 1994 winner) or 'Fly on the wings of love' (winner for Denmark in 2000).
		If this song was among the semi-finals of last night (as it should be, uk flooded last year), it wouldn't stand a chance to make it to the finals...

		This is an overview of the performance of the United Kingdom in the Eurovision Song Contest since they first took part in 1957, the competition's second year.
		In 1999 the rules changed and the United Kingdom (along with France, Germany and Spain) are automatically allowed to participate irrespective of their recent scores because they are the highest-paying European Broadcasting Union subscribers.
		It could also be argued that the fact that the Eurovision Song Contest is regarded as quite a joke in the UK, well known artists and bands are put off from associating themselves with it.
