Mario Venuti may not be one of the most obvious names to think when thinking Eurovision but he come to my attention thanks to his duet with Alice in Tutto appare, and has delivered goodies like Caduto dalle stelle, Fammi il piacere, Ventre della città and Lasciati amare. This Sicilian singer-songwriter and guitarist started his career in early 80's and found fame in group Denovo before going solo. In mid 90's he reunited various artist for a Battiato tribute album Battiato non Battiato where he covered E ti vengo a cercare. He has written for and collaborated with many other artists. He hasn't been to Sanremo for a decade, it would be nice to have him back.... and why not hav him in Tel Aviv, too. This DILF would certainly stick out.
Ukraine is set to select its entrant for Eurovision 2014 in about two weeks as the final is set on December 21, 2013. Twenty names made it through the casting selection yesterday and will be presented. The winner will be chosen by a jury and televote. Among the 20 some familiar names like NeAngely and names from local The Voice and X Factor as well as New Wave. As usual they didn't give the song titles yet but some songs have leaked already. Beware of changes though. Viktor Romanchenko - At the edge of the abyss Anna Hodorovskaya - If there is love Anatoly Shparev - Waiting for you Neangely - Courageous Stas Shurins - Why Tatyana Shirko - Let go Illarya - I'm alive Lisa Wassabi - No fear Vladimir Tkachenko - Be where you are Shanis - My soul Viktoriya Petryk - Love is lord Tanya Burke - Believe me Evgeny Litvinkovich - Strelyannaya Bird Anna Maria - 5 Stars Hotel Marietta - It`s my life Mariya Yaremchuk - Tick Tock Uli Rud - Tsvetok Deni...
