2 known for definate

By -
Well thats it 2 songs known for definate now......... Switzerland and Albania and I have to say I quite like the Swiss song even though I am not sure it is a winner.

Bulgaria, Belgium and Israel have also announced male soloists but I cant say I'm suprised as none of them have won for a while if at all.

So with 4 males and a female who is the best so far............. well I have to say I prefer Switzerland to Albania!

It will be interesting to see over the next few weeks who gets the votes from various nations especially as there are some that seem to be going for the internal vote rather than the public...............

Is this the way the UK will go? I am not sure, the rumour is that Gary Barlow will be writing the song and that Duncan James will be doing something with it also........ Following the Norwegian 5th in 2008 and then a win in 2009 will it be the Uk's year to follow suit?

San Marino, Andorra and Montenegro have announced their withdrawal from 2010 due to financial contraints......but to some people I'm not sure this is a bad thing.

Having listened to the Albanian song, I have to admit that I like it! Got quite a good old disco beat to it! Could do well if they manage to turn it into a good live staging song.

I also like the Swiss song. It's good to see a simple serious song from them!

My favourite so far.... Albania!

Looking back

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

Why?!

So Terry Wogan has finally retired having damaged the reputation of the Eurovision Song Contest in the UK for far too many years. So, considering that the UK seem to be trying to take the pre -selection a bit more seriously by having Lord Andrew Lloyd- Webber help, who do they decide to take over? GRAHAM NORTON!! WHY?! For one, Graham Norton has no experience at commentating. Two, I doubt Graham Norton has any experience of being serious! So we'll be subjected to more poor jokes, tasteless innuendos as the BBC moves the commentating more away from the music. How can Terry Wogan complain about the contest moving away from being a Music contest, when the BBC has failed to treat it as such for so long! So here's to many more years of Eurovision being a total joke in the UK!
