She's Back!!!!!!!

And back with a vengeance for her third attempt at Eurovision glory and will it be 3rd time lucky for her. Who am I talking about you are asking?

Well Chiara of course!!! Malta have finally convinced the Maltese songstress to try again for a bite at the cherry which is called Eurovision, but first she has to participate in Eurosong 09. Eurosong 2009 is the Maltese National selection and unfortunately for Chiara she has some stiff competition, not only has she got the likes of Claudia Faniello, Eleanor Cassar, Klinsmann, Miriam Christine, Natasha & Charlene and Ludwig Galea but she has also got to face the songwriting talents of Gerard James Borg, Paul Abela, Philip Vella, Ray Agius and Ralph Siegel who has now set his sights on representing Malta.

Personally I have not heard the song and am not sure when they will be released by the Maltese but I dont think she should have any problem as long as it is a traditional ballad to go with her fantastic voice.

With a 3rd place in Birmingham 1998 and 2nd place in Kyiv 2005 will it be 1st place in Moscow 2009.

Well another year's contest is over and I'm now back at home. So what are my thoughts on the contest? There are two things that stand out this year.... 1. Belgrade's/Serbia's apathy towards the contest, and 2. The results (as always!) So let's look at them in turn.... 1. After the recent elections, it appears that Serbians are keen to join the EU and after many years of troubles, which I will not go into, I would have thought that hosting the Eurovision would have been an excellent way to show what they are capable of. However, in the city itself, you would have been hard pressed to actually know that the contest was taking place! For most of the week, the only thing you could see with regards to the Eurovision was that a few shops were cashing in on the merchandise, a single information stall in one of the squares and I saw one advertisment for the Azerbaijan entry (there may have been more). So why did they not take up the opportunity? Was it that after the rec...

Not a winner.

So it's the beginning of February and the UK are all ready for Eurovision . For so many years we've had to wait until the last minute before finding out who was going to represent us. However, with the passing of Wogan's reign over the ridicule of Eurovision in the UK, we were told that it was now time to take it seriously again to bring the Eurovision back to the UK shores, rather than being the laughing stock of the rest of Europe. With UK fans having been told this numerous times before by the BBC, could we believe that this year was any different? Enter Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber , probably one of the best musical writers ever known (well, in my eyes anyway!) Maybe we were going to take it seriously this time. Stepping into Wogan's shoes, to take it seriously.... we choose a comedian!!?! To choose our entrant, 5 shows - 4 being live, with Andrew Lloyd Webber writing the song for the winner. Seriousness is thrown out of the window right from the start with so...

Oh dear Cyprus!

After watching the Cypriot final on eurovision.tv I am left with one burning question! Do Cyprus want to qualify from their semi-final? With a good number of entries over recent years I was looking forward to seeing the first national final to be webcast over eurovision.tv, however I really couldn't believe my eyes when the result was announced. One word that comes to mind with the winner is..... outdated! I could quite imagine this song being sung in an old black and white movie, but in the 2008 Eurovision - come on! It's about time that countries took this contest seriously! To win Eurovision now, you have to either have very good friendly neighbours or a damn good song. I know good songs are hard to find, but at least they could try! This song isn't even a good novelty song like Ukraine 2007. I'd say that this song would be a nil pointer, but everyone knows that they'll get 12 points from Greece! Here's a video of the winning song...... why Cyprus, WHY?!
