What a Weekend that was.............
and there is still more to come this week, with Greece choosing their song on Wednesday 27 February and then the forthcoming weekend.
In my opinion the best and the worst songs were chosen so far - Iceland being the best!!!
Im not so sure that I like the Macedonian entry and personally don't think it will qualify to the final on 24th May, however, I could be proved wrong.
Romania have decided to send the second song this year which is sung in Italian, which will mean that at least 3 songs will be performed in that Language, those being Switzerland, Romania and of course San Marino who have still to choose.
I also think that Bulgaria and Croatia may struggle to qualify for the final but the ones I think are dead cert's to go through from this weekends selections (including tonight) are Iceland, Israel, Ukraine and Poland.
And of course this particular entry would not be complete without a mention of the most famous turkey in the whole wide world at the moment - Dustin the Turkey from Ireland..............mixed reactions about the Irish entry so far, I do know one thing though my 2 sons love it and cant stop singing it.
This weekend coming we will finally find out who has qualified from Latvia, Finland and the United Kingdom. The UK national final has been revamped again and hopefully following the recent years of misery for the UK they can go back to being the formidable force that they were up until 1998, as since then they have only managed 1 top 5 place and that was back in Estonia 2002 with Jessica Garlick.
Greece on Wednesday should also be an entertaining show as they have one of the best records in Eurovision of recent years with 3rd, 1st, 9th and 7th over the past 4 years and another 3rd place back in 2001 in Denmark.
