These phenomena are Japanese and Korean (South) pop music. Both seem to be mainly performed by boy bands and girl bands.
Indeed. The sensible Kiwis have not been lured into the Eurovision fold. But a similar competition could be held in the southern hemisphere. Then the English speakers could do battle with J-POP and K-POP!

Sad to hear of the death of Barry Humphries. RIP Barry, and Ms Everage of course.
Ah, the first Chat post of the new year ....Fortunately I have no tick to lose. But of course I feel deep sorrow for the celebrity losers.
