Malta once again produced a solid national final, maybe a bit weaker than the previous years as the highlights were far and between. My favourites after relistening the songs stay the same, runner up Richard Edward's Finally and Fabrizio Faniello's No surrender. A special mention to Kelly Schembri's Love me like your money who's apparently trying to break through in the UK with a fancy video.
The Azerbaijani selection show for the represant was as long as the selection process for the five finalists. Kurt Calleja from Malta and Can Bonomo from Turkey were present with Ell/Nikki to see Sabina Babayeva to emerge as the winner after each and every finalist had done about zillion songs amongst other guests. Now the Azeri TV will shop around a suitable song for her.
