The voting is on and when I sat down to pick up my top-10 I just realized it is very difficult! My mind was filled with songs, dozens of them and each and every should be in. But can't. So how to pick and choose? Should I try to avoid the obvious? Spread songs from all decades and different countries? Favour the quality over fun? Hard task! In the end I decided to pick up songs that mean something to me, songs that move me still every time I hear them - for one reason or another. And that gives me a string of Italian entries from Non ho l'etá to Era, from I treni di Tozeur to Rapsodia and Questo amore. And some Israeli goodies like Hi, Hasheket shenish'ar, Shara barchovot and The fire in your eyes. How could I forget L'oiseau et l'enfant?Love shine a light? Hard rock hallelujah? Molitva? Or oldies like Disco tango, Katson sineen taivaan or Io senza te? Samson? Amsterdam? Si tu aimes ma musique or Dschingis Khan that rocked my world back then? Or absolutely fabulous and under rated Macedomienne, I morgon är en annan dag or Deixa-me sonhar? Or succesful entries like To nie ja, Sveta ljubav, Never let you go, Let me try, It hurts, Stronger every minute, Si. Or Lane moje. Or... the list goes on. And what do with Dancing Lasha tumbai and L'amour á la Francaise that bring back so many good memories from Helsinki 2007? Or Leave me alone! Also because there's my brief moment in the Eurovision DVD history, right after Hanna's performance. Me and my dad's borrowed Finnish flag... And Hanna is goddess!
I will pick up my top-10 from these eventually. You do your list and join the fun. Let's make this voting the best ever.
