Tonight: Final in Bulgaria - UPDATE

Bulgaria will choose its entrant tonight with 50-50 televote-jury. Some familiar names amongst the participants like Poli and Lazar. There's a little bit of everything from sumowrestlers to playmates, from teenage angst to ethno-granny and angry male rock. My favourite is Lazar but he would propably have the faith of Mirò anyways but then, there isn't anything that good either! Poli Genova and Emilka Valente are quite nice and then worth listening are Plamena, Vlad and Jakob as well as 032 and 5-te Sezona - if they only learn English first. You can watch snippets of all entries here. Four songs have withdrawn or disqualified from the original line up. Marked in red. The fun starts 19.30 CET at eurovision.tv 

UPDATE: I'm watching the show and there isn't much to tell home about except they have a lovely pre-recorded applause going on all the time! :-) Lazar did a great job and what I have seen so far in blogs and chats I'm not alone liking him. Poli Genova got a big applause before and after but I think live singing isn't for her. She ruined One lifetime isn't enough live and pretty much did the same for Na inat. Rather screamy! 
If Bulgaria wants to have Eurovision Show contest instead of a Song contest they will send Milena's freak show. And mystery revealed Jakob is actually Swedish and has been sporting a questionable look in the his Swedish past as well.But why should Bulgarians choose a foreign nobody? Who doesn't even speak one word Bulgarians.We know how the Swedish composed songs were treated in the Finnish finals ... mind you a singer! Last but not least Emilia Valente killed her beautiful song with very bad vocals so Poli or Lazar it is I hope. Or the freak show. Let's see what the people and jury think.
22.12 So Poli Genova won, the freak show second and the teen life third.Looks like Poli got consolation for her runner up place last time. The song was way better that time around....

Nina Badrić for Croatia

Croatian TV went for internal selection in the end and chose Nina Badrić. She has been around for almost 20 years and has released ten albums between 1995 and 2011. She has also treid to get to Eurovision four times already without a win (1993, 1994, 1995 and 2003). She is popular also in the other ex-Yogoslavian countries so let those 12s run in.... Listen her here: Moje oci pune ljubavi , Dat ce nam Bog , Nebo and Mama . And lovely Carobno jutro .

CZECH REPUBLIC: MARTINA BÁRTA PRESENTS MY TURN

ESC 2016 WISH LIST: MARGARET FOR POLAND

Małgorzata Jamroży aka Margaret has also been tipped for Eurovision and apparently she did turn it down but she'd be perfect. She's got a look and persona you can't unnotice nor forget, she's got hit songs, she has been voted or nominated for everything from Trendy artist to the Hope of the Year, Fashion Icon and Glamour Woman of the year besides the usual best video, song, album, debut..... Oh she's also a fashion designer! She's very clever with social medias and would surely use it to her advantage if selected for Stockholm 2016. Her debut album is titled Add the blonde , do we need to say more? Except it includes mostly Swedish written pop tunes like Tell me how are ya , Wasted , Start a fire and Heartbeat . And of course her debut single and internationally noticed Thank you very much that you can enjoy below with all its anti-textil feel. I think she's Eurovision perfection, she's cheeky and fun, can we have her?

UMK 2014: MIKKO POHJOLA - SÄNGYN REUNALLA LYRICS

Not quite often song lyrics cause strong reactions, especially in Eurovision. Mikko Pohjola's Sängyn reunalla , a story about unfaithful people and feelings it causes in the people involved is however one. Many of you non Finnish speakers have wondered what it really says after the UMK judge Toni Wirtanen said he was feeling uncomfortable and would like walk to the stage and kick Mikko's ass adding he surely wouldn't like to be the man who's footprints depressions are in the bedroom carpet...  Here are the lyrics liberally translated by yours truly. What do you think?   Makuuhuoneessa kuvat kehyksissä käännettyinä pöydällä Ikkunalaudalla vanhat oppikirjat pitää kukkaa pystyssä Älä huolehdi sä sanot ja työnnät itses kiinni kylkeeni Lähelle päästänkin mutta tää on tilapäistä, sä et jää mun viereeni Kuinka tämän saamme loppumaan? Se ois helpompaa jos kiinni jäätäisiin Luokses palaan aina uudestaan enkä sänkys ...

Et voilà! Anggun presents Echo (You and I)

So today we finally heard the French entry in Eurovision 2012 in Baku by Anggun. Echo (You and I ) is rather bizarre mix of many things and just when you think you get it the songs takes a turn to another direction. Whistling all along. Very catchy it is. Call it an earworm if you want. Still I wouldn't scream a winning entry but... we will see. In Patricia Kaas like ending me thinks.

CONCHITA WURST RELEASES YOU ARE UNSTOPPABLE VIDEO

Beautifully shot in black and white the video once again provides some beautiful imaginary and shots. And she's off to Australia for promotion soon..... 

SWEDEN: MEDS MAKES MÅNS ZELMERLÖW HARD AND NAKED

Earlier this year Måns Zelmerlöw invested some of his money into web pharmacy MEDS and now he's ready to bare it all for its advertising film, which is.... how to put it? The corniest thing I have seen for a long, long time perhaps? Supposed to be funny the way his Eurovision presenting stunts were I presume, but this falls somewhere between embarassing and uncool. Well, we get to admire some over acrting and a lot of naked Måns riding a horse and sporting a hard on at one point. Maybe that's enough to make MEDS a success.... Where's Edward af Sillen when you need him?

ITALY: ARISA & LORENZO FRAGOLA PRESENT L'ESERCITO DEL SELFIE WITH TAKAGI & KETRA

Tormentone aka the summer earworm has been served! By Pippo Baudo the Legend himself. Tagaki & Ketra have got Arisa and Lorenzo Fragola in vocals for their L'Esercito del Selfie that flirts with today's selfie mania and lack of rea human touch instead of online one and a good dose of Motown groove.
