Yep I know, I just wanted to say that, cause they don't make news with all the participates from esc, mostly from the winners, and this is not fair at all. they make 20 topics with Bilan's news etc and they forget the others

I just say my opinion..

MrsKoldun,
I don't disagree that his presence in jesc should be mentioned, I'm just saying that you can't compare that news to the news about a eurovision winner and wonder why they mentioned one and not the other.
However, you could complain about Mihai Traistariu's news..after all Mihai was 4th and Dmitry 6th...same thing.

Koldun wasn't a eurovision winner though

AND??? He was in eurovision or not???

that doesn't say anything to me..

On the subject of jesc, and since there's not any other article about it, has anyone noticed that the girl with the long, black hair from Belarus, looks like a very young Ruslana? :D

Thanks Ajdin for posting the videos. I didn't recognize Deen though.

I watched the Irish NF and Marija seemed very nice, and apparently she has good taste :)

do we know if the event is sold out or we're gonna see an empty arena? lol

Candyman, apparently the ticket sales are awful, I expect the EBU will try and sell them to companies now, because I think things have been quite desperate. I wouldn't be suprised if there are some empty seats :(

Yeah she said she liked it because it was "too cool"! And also she was at the Irish national final, which probably had something to do with it :D

Hehe. She really said that Ireland was her fave?

Anyway, I agree that Sweden was the best. ;)

lmao! Yeah Eddie Izzard is hilarious! :)

Ajdin
Thanks alot for the videos, Deen has changed alot and its nice seeing Marija perfomring again, I really like her, not only as a performer but as a person she seems very nice in interviews and stuff. And she always seems quite warm when performing, espeically in that video (and she has great taste cos she said Ireland and Sweden were here favourites this year :P)

OFFTOPIC (again :P)

Yesterday was a TV show where guests were Deen and Marija Serifovic. They both performed live their Eurovision songs (with help of young new singers).

Deen - In The Disco http://www.youtube.c(...)/watch?v=yfah5Pw16GU

Marija - Molitva http://www.youtube.c(...)/watch?v=foDlPCutB1s

lol. My favourite comedian is Eddie Izzard :) He has been here three times but I haven't been able to get tickets. They sold out within 5 minutes. Talking of languages:

this man is becoming the second ruslana. you can't get rid of him. let's just hope he won't start releasing songs that contain the word "wild".

Yes, very impressive :) Thanks for telling me. I think BWO would have done fairly well in Belgrade.
The "sisters" were really funny :D I was lucky to get a ticket, I missed them last year.

I know this is a bit off topic but I just read this . . .
""Lay Your Love On Me" was released in the UK in late July 2008, charted also at Number 69 in the main singles chart, and Number 2 in the UK indie charts." - lollll, BWO who didn't actually make it to eurovision, charted the same as our own eurovision song!! :P Considering they did that on downloads alone, I think 69 is pretty impressive ;)
