Back in 1989, I had a chance to see the Stones in Vancouver, on the Steel Wheels tour. I thought 'I better see them now...they won't be alive much longer'. At the time, the joke was that it was the "Steel Wheelchairs" tour. Not to be harsh, but they've been an oldies act for 40 years or so.

I liked Fiji, hated Iceland (too much of a hymn) and Uzbekistan (no melody).
The rest were "meh" with Slovenia being the best of a bad lot.
And the unabashed pandering of singing a national anthem on "The Voice" is wild.

Poorly made choice, but the fact that so many people got so angry about this speaks volumes about the state of our culture.
