The Song Formerly Known As Facebook Uh, Oh, Oh Voted Out Of Eurovision

Our on-the-spot Eurovision reporter is aghast at the news that San Merino's Social Network Song has not made it through the semi-finals.

"We feel that San Marino and Montenegro were robbed," reports Lana Matafonov, our Eurovision blogger embedded in Azerbaijan for the 2012 competition.

News that the San Marino and Montenegro territory's The Social Network Song, by Valentina Monetta, has been voted out of Eurovision during the semi-finals has rocked Eurovison pundits across the globe. [The song was originally titled Facebook Uh, Oh, Oh but had its title changed due to Eurovision rules.]

Matafonov sums up what fans around the world are feeling, "Now we will never hear the likes of the San Marino masterpiece Oh Uh Uh Facebook again. This is very upsetting."

Matafonov also reports of incessant cowbell ringing during the semi-finals and audience members battling for chocolate mousse in the Eurovision cafeteria.
