Unless you are French, in which case it is an abomination before God, since this year France’s Eurovision entry is sung in Franglish.
I’m thinking that the French should be counting their blessings that their song isn’t as bad as some of the tripe that comes out of Eurovision every year, but apparently some of them are getting bent out of shape at the fact that the song isn’t completely in French.
I dunno. I think that entering a song in an international song contest that can only be understood by a bilingual audience is an interesting choice. It says a lot about culture and class. In a way one could argue that singing in two languages is more elitist than desperately trying to defend your language/culture from cross-pollinization.
