00:00I don't really know too much about it, to be honest.
00:04I mean, I know it's kind of like...
00:06It depends how you view it.
00:08Musically, I've never really been that interested.
00:11I always thought it's kind of like...
00:13I don't know, it's like soft power, isn't it?
00:16It's a way of kind of courting the Eastern Europe
00:19and Israel's in there, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan.
00:23So the boundaries of Europe are kind of like,
00:25it's trying to bring them in.
00:26I don't watch it, but I feel sometimes a lack of passion.
00:29Because even when, back in the day, my parents used to watch it,
00:33and they didn't care,
00:34but you'd be more passionate about the situation.
00:36I feel it's become more satirical.
00:39So I'm not surprised that Britain...
00:41It's not something I think they spend a lot of time doing it, really.
00:45And I get it, it can become more satirical,
00:47but sometimes you have to add fun to it.
00:49But at the same time, I feel, get back to the roots.
00:52Yeah.
00:53I'm not that bothered to be honest.
