This is another one we quite like. Full of drama and over importance. Just the way a Eurovision song deserves to be and isn’t that bad either.

Oh here we go again with the horsey theme but with added mediaeval. Actually we quite like this one and hope it will do well.

Beautiful Norway sometimes comes up with some really nice songs. We’re not sure about this one though.

Not sure about this one. Seems a bit melencholy and well, dull. I can’t see this one getting many votes, but Eurovision has surprised us in the past. Expect the Polish disapora around Europe to vote for this one but don’t expect many others.

We like this one. Very odd. Very Balkan. What an afro though and what’s with the men in suits? It all seems very…well Eurovision. Not sure what the others will think of it but it has a thumbs up from us for pure weirdness.

Latvia sucessfully hosted the contest a few years back thanks to the votes of its neighbours. That said they did a very good job but this year’s song doesn’t seem to do that time justice.

There was a time when Ireland was the powerhouse of Eurovision. Consistently kicking out tunes which the other countries loved. Not sure if the costs of hosting the contest each year pleased Irish TV but we all enjoyed it 🙂

Happy Europe Day to everyone!!

err…what? Europe Day? Hmmm..

Well exactly. Does the average man in the street know that May 9th is Europe Day or indeed what it is to celebrate? Probably not! This week I asked a dozen and none knew.

Back in Berlin again! Mind you it’s hard to leave it when it comes to the vibrant art, music and cultural scene second to none. This time its to look at the new album from Ersatzmusika called “Songs Unrecantable”.

Blimey! These are going for it with full Balkan force! A great Eurovision song this from Igor Cukrov and Andrea called “Lijepa Tena”. A good guess for high marks, excluding those from it’s neighbours.

Expect high marks for this one from Bosnia’s neighbours as is the political vote provided in the Balkans. It’s not a bad affair with socialist style visuals and a reasonable song.

Plucky little Malta down there in the sun has come up with a song which seems to have the signs of having been written by a committee sadly. Chiara gives it a good go but something nor quite there with this song called “What If We”.
