| Eurovision Song Contest News - 2009 Moscow, Russia 

Allen Barjasic

Bok!

My name is Allen Barjasic, I was born on the 26th December 1989 in Singen, a town in Southern Germany. My parents are both Croatian, but my mother was born in Bosnia & Herzegovina. They met in Singen, it's like a Mekka for citizens of the EX-YU-countries .. and yes.. now I'm here!
Well, I raised up in Germany, I have finished the vocational school for economy there and since October 2008, I live in Policnik, a really small village near Zadar. I'm studying German and English (Language & Literature) at the University of Zadar and I'm doing well.

I know the Eurovision Song Contest as a event more than 10 years, my whole family, especially those who live in Germany, love to watch it. My first ESC was the one back in Riga 2003. Since then, I watch every NF, I'm a freak!

--------------------------------------------------------

Here are my Top5 for each year since 1993 (Croatia entered that year as a independent country )

I will not make Top5's for the years before.. it would take too long and there aren't many songs I like from the years before (there are some winner songs I really like).

It took 3 hours to watch all those recaps.. I'm dead right now

For the near future (2010) I want Austria, Georgia, Italy, Luxembourg, Monaco, Morocco and San Marino back and Lebanon, Liechtenstein (if possible), Kazakhstan and Kosovo (if possible) and even the Vatican City (if possible) as new members for the Eurovision Song Contest. That would be 12 members and with the 42 countries from 2009 this will mean that the total number of countries will rise to 54.
To be honest, this will stay wishful thinking for a long long time.
