Jan Delay - Interval act (Düsseldorf 2011)

Countdown to Eurovision 2013: my all-time* favourites



Yes, it’s German funk-hop.  Yes, he actually uses the phrase ‘Jan Delay, in da haus’.  And yes, we were only up and dancing because I felt sorry for the German fans next to me trying to enjoy the performance even though the stadium was half-empty, while seasoned Eurogays hurriedly used the non-contest part of the show to rush the bar, the loos, each other.  BUT!  But, but, but, a) it’s actually very catchy, b) he’s a good performer despite his ‘stupid hat, stupid suit, stupid rubbery dance moves' schtick.

And, oh yeah, c) *this is when we made the telly.  Dancing.  In front of 170 million viewers. 

 

So you know...

 

Clue: we are not the portly gentleman in the Union Jack suit and lacy sleeves.
