Life after Helsinki 2007 Eurovision

  The 56th Festivali i Këngës ended with the victory of rock singer Eugent Bushpepa (34) and his folk-rock Mall . He will represent Albania in Lisbon 2018 Eurovision song contest and apparently intends to keep his song in Albanian instead of translating it into English. He has been singing for years in various rock and metal bands as well as cover bands having his solo career going on while participating in various contests and festival. Now it finally paid off and he's the winner.  Only the Top-3 was announced and 2nd was Redon Makashi and third Inet Neziri . 

  The 56th Festivali i Këngës takes place tonight after two semifinals on Thursday and last night. Fourteen acts were chosen by a jury for the final where there seems to be jury + televote. The winner will go to Lisbon 2018 Eurovision for Albania. All the four I mentioned in my very first post did it to the final, but who wins tonight I have no idea. Now I'd add to those four Inis and Eugent though.  Artemisa Mithi — E dua botën Bojken Lako — Sytë e shpirtit Denisa Gjezo — Zemër ku je Elton Deda — Fjalët Eugent Bushpepa — Mall Inis Neziri — Piedestal Manjola Nallbani — I njëjti qiell Mariza Ikonomi — Unë NA & Festina Mezini — Tjetër jetë Orgesa Zaimi — Ngrije zërin Redon Makashi — Ekziston Rezarta Smaja & Luiz Ejlli — Ra një yll Tiri Gjoci — Orë e ndalur Voltan Prodani — E pamundur
