UPDATE 2

A few more odds and sods news stories from the last few days

SWEDEN – the “andre chansen” round of Melodifestivalen seemed to be in the middle of a voting fiasco. Many viewers and internet groups seemed to be a little surprised by the voting outcomes of the second chance round. From further viewing, it appears that not once, not twice but three times during the programme the wrong voting numbers were put up below certain songs. STV have maintained that this did not affect the end result and the result stands. Not all ESC fans will find this acceptable. I think this may run, even past the final on Saturday...


SLOVAKIA - Still no footage of the girls singing live, but they have released their official video. Am starting to wonder if no live performance up to now is suggesting they can’t do one… Still 2 months before they can hide no more!




CROATIA – it looks like the Croatian entry is getting a total overhaul and makeover. It also looks like the strange title “Break a leg” will be no more! Although the melody will be the same, the song will be re-written for the title “Celebrate” Lyricist Boris Djurdjevic has been working with Daria to make a final version of the song in time for the submission date of March 14th. Hopefully a video clip will be on the internet soon.
