So next time a western country wants to win eurovision they should do what Norway did

Though I wasn't fond of the UK entry I think it was a good thing that it made the top 5, they might send something really good next year ( there's no shortage of musical talent in this country as we know it, it's just that it's lost its way a bit in recent years about what should be popular. ).
