Austria decides

National Finals, Uncategorized

Throughout Eurovision’s recent history there have been many odes to the posterior: Sakis Rouvas did so for Greece in 2004 (placing 3rd), Kenan Dogulu did it for Turkey in 2007 (placing 4th). Now it’s Austria’s turn, and this time they are cutting right to the chase Deutscher Rap-style:

Trackshittaz (expect that name to be modified to meet Eurovision rules) will be representing Austria with the song Woki Mit Deim Popo*, which translates as “Shake That Arse/Ass.” (Expect that title to stay in German.)

* Fun fact: “Popo” is also American urban slang for police.

Austria is no stranger when comes to naughty Eurovision entries: In 2003, the comedian/entrant Alf Poier had a bit of a stoush with Eurovision organisers over the pelvic thrusts and crotch grabbing he did during his entry which were verging on the lewd according to the EBU.
