EUROVISION - BEST OF THE DECADE: AZERBAIJAN

Let's continue the series and kill some time having a look at the last decade and see who were the Top-10 best scoring countries in the Eurovision song contest in the past ten years. The ways to calculate are many and here I have used the simple average placement method (and it's not all so serious). Next up is Azerbaijan at n.o 5. Azerbaijan entered with a Top-10 finish and continued the trend with five consegutive Top-5 finishes including a win before all the vote buying scandal and all that exploded. Miracuslously after that they didn't trouble the Top-10 until last year again, and had even one NQ in their table.... Fair enough. Azerbaijan has sent good entries, no doubt about that, but what annoys me personally is the lack of local work in them. In fact, only their debut entry has been written by Azeris (unless its credited by alias). I remember all Azeri entries way too well thanks to their usually very original stagings. 2011 Ell & Nikki - Running sc...

AZERBAIJAN: CHINGIZ BRINGS THE TRUTH TO EUROVISION 2019

Azerbaijan has revealed their internally chosen entry for Eurovision 2019 in Tel Aviv. It comes from the Borislav Milanov-Trey Campbell & co hit factory and indeed there's no doubt this will we another success. Truth is sung by Chingiz Mustafayev (27), a name that has been tipped as the one for weeks already.  Born in Moscow but living in Azerbaijan for over 20 years he has already represented his country in New Wave 2013, and did also The Voice of Ukraine in 2016. Since then he developed his flamenco inspired pop but now for Eurovision takes a radio pop turn. The song comes with visually stunning video that features some of this year's trends: face masks and underwater males....
