This year they've dispensed with multiple choice, jury and public voting and gone straight to a record company for one song.

My Last Breath is very appropriate. A dead duck.

Can a song get fewer than 'nul points'?
I once had a whim and I had to obey it
To buy a French Horn in a second-hand shop;
I polished it up and I started to play it
In spite of the neighbours who begged me to stop.

Is this the last year we'll be allowed to enter?

I'd like to hope so.
Odd thing, ain't it... you meet people one at a time, they seem decent, they got brains that work, and then they get together and you hear the voice of the people. And it snarls.
