MACEDONIA: JANA DANCES ALONE IN THE EUROVISION

Jana Burčeska has also released her entry for Macedonia in the Eurovision song contest, titled Dance alone. And it's a bit wierd affair in a way it doesn't sound at all like an Eurovision entry but a pop tune from the 80's. I'm not going crazy for it but I like it. Yet it's a bit hard to place it in the scoreboard, and then how will this work on stage with all those vocal sounds and stuff? And it's also too long.... Confusing.But the video and it's basic idea is pretty fantastic :-)

SONGS OF THE YEAR 2015: #5 KRISTA SIEGFRIDS - ON & OFF

Krista Siegfrids is delivering nice pop tunes one after another and this one is particularly catchy and soon you will be singing along..... Hopefully her Melodifestivalen entry will be equally good!

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?

ESC 2016 BELARUS: NAKED WITH WOLVES?

Today's funniest Eurovision related story comes from Belarus. Some sources claim Ivan wants to perform on stage naked and with live wolf or wolves. It surely would be a first on Eurovision stage! We have seen some forgotten underwear over the years, and some cardbox animals though..... Is it time to take things a bit further? No, according the rules live animals are not allowed, and Eurovision being a family show nudity won't do either. (It seems to be ok to be half naked if you are a dancer though..... )

GREECE: HELENA PAPARIZOU HITS AGAIN WITH HAIDE

TIM SCHOU AND HIS NAKED GRAVITY

Tim Schou has a pretty good solo career going since he left his friends in London. He's travelling the world and relesing songs and videos. The latest one is a great track and comes with a steamy video that kinda takes away from the song really. But who's complaining. If you got it, flaunt it. Enjoy the video below. This post coming after the other Dane, Rasmus Seebach as wishlist for Eurovision. To think about it, Tim would do nicely, too. Maybe he should give it another go?

CONCHITA WURST RELEASES YOU ARE UNSTOPPABLE VIDEO

Just awhile before her debut album simply titled Conchita will be released Conchita Wurst has released a video to her latest single You are unstoppable . And yes, she does Loreen or goes topless. 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.....

CAROLA'S BOOBS STEAL THE SHOW, SVT APOLOGIES

Update! Another thing got Swedes talking last night: Carola's boobs when she was giving away an award. This is not the first time her boombs cause headlines; her misfortunate adventures in the 80's in Japan wer explained with her boobs being too big for Japanese market. Ok.... Or was it the song ? Anyways, Carola apologies and says she thinks the dress is stylish and elegant (even her friends said so) and she's a mature woman in her 40s, not a 16-year-old girl and looks like one. The Swedish Oscars, Guldbagge awards were given out last night. Carola was there as a guest star to sing Barbra Streisand's The way we were when honoring the movie stars who passed away during 2012. However, the cameras were too much on Carola, not on the stars showed in photos in the background and that upset many viewers as that part of the show was to celebrate them, not Carola. Oh well... The producer of the show tells in Aftonbladet the part of the show was made the sam...

EUROVISION 2025 UNITED KINGDOM: REMEMBER MONDAY - WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED?

The worst kept secret of the season is BBC has chosen Remember Monday for Eurovision song contest 2025 for the United Kingdom. The name, and song title, and the song, have been floating the internet for weeks and days so no one was surprised anymore this morning when it was made official. WTHJH?

In 2023 they have worked full time on their music career and have released so far two EPs and What the hell just happened? is their 13th single release. Below are some of their previous songs for your enjoyment:

EUROVISION 2025 CROATIA: MARKO BOSNJAK WINS DORA 2025

Croatia had its national final for Eurovision song contest final Dora 2025 and Marko Bosnjak emerged as a winner with his poison cake and will travel to Basel. The semi-finals had only televoting but the final had 50/50 televote/eight jury groups. Marko (21) is Bosnian Croat singer. He rose to fame in 2015 in a talent show and in 2022 he was already aiming to Eurovision and became the runner up with Moli za nas. I must say back then he was one of my top favorites but I'm not having such desire for this poison cake. Between then and now he has been attending festivals and releasing singles, getting nominated for awards and he was also announced as one of the participants for the Serbian version of Your face sounds familiar, let's see how that goes now! Nine singles, all in Serbian but this Poison cake from 2022 to 2025 to his credit and two Song of the year nominations (2023 for Moli za nas and 2024 Spokojan) under his belt so far. Enjoy some of his previous songs below: Final...
