Eurovision Song Contest 2014
Glückwunsch to Austria!

And Great Britain? Well, at least Molly didn't come last - France did! Upps!

After Lena a few years ago, another German-speaking country has won the Song contest tonight. Singing the beautiful power ballad 'Rise like a phoenix', Conchita Wurst made it to the top spot, despite of (or aided by?) her well-trimmed beard.

While Germany entered with a negligible effort in English, here are the French and Spanish videos - who at least included some language snippets for you to enjoy...
The singer of Twin Twin complains about how he can't grow a moustache.....while Spanish entry Ruth Lorenzo complains about the rain.
And Great Britain? Well, at least Molly didn't come last - France did! Upps!
Auf Wiedersehen in Österreich next year!
