Life after Helsinki 2007 Eurovision

San Marino - Senhit - Freaky! Not exactly a song I play in repeat but everytime I hear it it makes me happy and jamming along. Senhit is so full of positive energy and sells this so well. All was looking good for San Marino to reach the final for the third time most likely. I'm between 7 and 8 but as it is my second adopted home country I give 8/10 Italy - Diodato - Fai rumore I fell in love with this song during Sanremo, and in the end after hearing all the Eurovision entries in a long run it has climbed back to the top. Excellent song with a proper melody, sung in a good old fashioned way belting it out from the heart in a proper manner when due. No gimmicks, no today's trendy arrangements or production but a timeless classic. The pandemic has given this song another dimension. I want to think Italy would have won in Rotterdam if only.... 10/10 Albania - Arlena Ara - Fall from the sky As usual Albania revambed their song and translated it into Engli...

Hurricane was only formed in November 2017 but has already taken the Serbian (and not only) music scene by like a.... hurricane. The three girls all have already experience in the music business before their joint effort. Sanja Vučić (26) is no stranger to Eurovision having already represented Serbia back in 2016 with Goodbye (Shelter) . She studied opera singing before joining band ZAA that did most everything from ska to dub and punk. She studies philospohy and Arabic among other things. Ivana Nikolić (24) has studied moderm dance and music and has done some collaborations before joining Hurricane. Ksenija Knežević (23) has done Eurovision as backing singer to her father Knez in 2015 for Montenegro with Adio . She started as a child star and has ended in Hurricane after being in various other groups. Hurricane has been busy releasing singles and videos, and Hasta la vista is their 9th but they have already released another two after that, Guellame el pantalon and Roll ...

Hurricane was a big pre-contest favorite and totally ruled the Beovizija 2020 votes gaining full marks by both the jury and televoters already in the semi-final, and repeated the same in the final. And for a change there's nothing fishy about it. If not the fact the televoters and juries didn't agree pretty much on anything else....(except Naiva and Marko more or less in the mid table) Sanja Vučić, Ivana Nikolić and Ksenija Knežević or the Hurricane girls have been performing together since 2017 and as a funny coincidence their Eurovision history is quite linear: Ksenija's dad Knez sung in Eurovision 2015  Adio , Sanja herself 2016  Goodbye and now they are doing Hasta la vista together! Hurricane has released a string of singles so far but no album yet and are apparently very popular in the region. Check out below the results and performance videos (and here the semi-final results ) 1. Hurricane - Hasta la vista (televote 12 + jury 12) 24 2. Naiva -  Ba...
