Eurovision Insight Podcast: Life, The Universe, and 42 Songs Written by on March 21, 2012

I don’t know, I go away for a week to Austin for South by Southwest (www.sxsw.com) and when I come back songs have been thrown out the Contest, Ireland and Spain get the wild cards again, the last tickets go on sale, and everyone’s odds start to come in apart from the United Kingdom.

Did I miss anything? Apart from some of my favourite songs deciding to switch to English?

Thought so, okay let’s try and get all the news in!
