Life after Helsinki 2007 Eurovision

Belgium has an internet voting and a grand final but relistening the songs there wasn't much worth mentioning. I never liked the winning song With love baby anyways and my initial favourite Steve Linden's C'est la musique had stood the summer period and still sounds very catchy and nice. Maybe nothing original and very Eurovision indeed but it's a great sing-a-long pop song that might have had a chance in Germany? Another one that I liked back then as still do is Alexandre Deschamps's Elle merveille . And both songs get bonus from the French (even if Elle merveille is so French it would propably sound pretty bad in any other language).

Two more acts have collected the necessary 20.000 euros in Belgium. Steve Linden's lovely C'est la musique and Hélène with Our home . We have now four songs cleared for the next step.

Syla K and Léa Clément have collected the necessary 20.000 euros with their songs Simple love and Où s'en vont nos rêves and have qualified for the next step in the Belgian selection. In total there are already 98 songs listed and Steve Linden is propably the next one to reach that amount. He has almost 15.000 collected by now. Both qualified songs are nice enough.
