Eurovision album: Your views
Sestre dress up as air hostesses for their act
Three gay transvestites are representing Slovenia
Love it or loathe it, Eurovision time is here again and in the run-up to the competition on 25 May, the album, featuring songs from all 24 competitors, has been released.

Hot favourite, I Can't Live Without Music, from Germany's Corinna May and Come Back, the UK's entry by Pop Idol finalist Jessica Garlick, are amongst the delights on offer.

"Judging by this album, much of Europe is merging into a musical standard," wrote the BBC's Michael Osborn.

"But fear not - there are enduring elements of camp and sounds from the fringe which Eurovision would be a sorrier place without," he added.

But what do you think?

Are there any genuinely good pop tunes on here? Or has the irony gone on long enough?
