Moldova (pop. 4,431,570; a landlocked country in Eastern Europe) Geta Burlacu, A Century Of Love

You know when you’ve just been dumped and it’s raining and you go into a seedy bar at 3am and it’s 1986? Chances are A Century Of Love is the music you’ll hear in that bar. Performed by Moldovan karaoke TV show host and human Van Der Graaf generator Geta Burlacu, A Century Of Love might just be the most gut-wrenchingly miserable song ever recorded. “This is all I mean/ Be my “everything”!/ And live forever/ Ever, ever!” it goes, making poor old Geta sound like the neediest bugger Eurovision has ever had. But why can’t Geta Burlacu get a boyfriend? Perhaps it’s because she’s got a genuinely funny accent. Perhaps it’s because she keeps getting ’singing’ mixed up with ‘horrible atonal yelping’. Perhaps it’s because it’s physically impossible to sit through all of A Century Of Love without being overwhelmed with nausea. No, it’s probably just the silly accent. Current Eurovision betting odds - 150/1
