Kiev To Host Eurovision 2017?

It looks like. Other cities have opted but the Mayor of Kiev seems to have it all down-packed.

So... Russia's Gonna Win

Russia' s gonna win. Accept it. It's a great entry with a catchy song and very high tech staging

Now on to Junior Eurovision 2016 in Malta! I predict an Irish, Dutch, or Georgian win. Lemme hit up Wikipedia for the list of countries...

There's supposed to be 18 countries but only these 6 gave their green light:

Albania (song comes out June 1st)
Bulgaria (June 11th)
Ireland (They had a Melodifestivalen style selection last year so I have high hopes this year)
Malta (host county, hello! BRING OUT THE BABY DIVAS!)
The Netherlands (Junior Songfestival is a good Disney-esque selection)
Russia (much of the usual)

Yep yep. Anyone here watch the Melodi Grand Prix Jr. for Norway and Denmark? Pretty decent scandipop.

I Noticed This On Wiwibloggs...

About Ovidui

being asked to duet with Lidia Isic from Moldova: "We invite Ovidiu Anton to perform alongside Moldova’s representative Lidia Isac. We are convinced that together the two can make an exceptional duet for the song “Falling Stars” at Semifinal 1 of Eurovisionon 10 May... Sounds like Moldova has accepted that they're not going to the final.

ROMANIA DROPPED OUT OF EUROVISION 2016!!!

:O

At least let Ovidui compete this year before you break the news. True, the Romanian broadcaster and government should've paid up their dues (€14 millions euros, $15 million USD) but damn. TVR (Romania's national broadcaster) only gets €130 million a year and lost €155 million last year. And Eurovision 2016 is in 2 weeks.

2 WEEKS!!!

:(

Bright side of a bad situation, Ovi is taking legal action against the EBU for the sudden kickass motion and, if all fails, another country has a chance to make the final this year.

Positive and concerned.

All hope & prayers goes out to Romania.

UPDATE: Ovidui is seeking legal action! I don't blame him.

SNUPER - SHALL WE DANCE

The GOOD:
Nice little disco boogie oogie woogie song. Best from SNUPER by far. Love for lower tier boybands.

The BAD:
Disposable. But what Kpop song isn't? It's good the first few times you listen to it then it fades.

The UGLY:
Move over, old school k-artists! You have competition! The newer groups can make cheaply made songs like you do!

Spanish Eurovision Pre-Review 2016

1. Maverick - Un Mondo Má Felizé
- If I were shopping at a Mexican/Latin clothing store, this would be the background music. Makes my hips shake but not my Eurovision ticket. 6 out of 10 pancho hoodies.

2. Salvador Beltran - Días de AlegĂ­er

- Similar to Maverick's song but more to it. Slightly better but still not really worth it. I hope the performance makes up for it. 6.5 out of 10 matching shoes for my panchos. 3. Maria Isabel - La Vida Solo Es Una - Decent but not a topper. She's better than the last two dudes by a mile but she sounds like other Mediterranean female artists. Not a bad thing (I like firey Med Terra divas) but I feel she'll be overlooked. 7 out 10 fiery suns! 4. ELECTRIC NANA - Now - Sounds like Scandinavian pop rock (aka Swedes might like it). It's quality. She even adds a cool edge to it (as if singing in part English wasn't edgy enough) and lights up my heart with promise that this selection will have variety! Alternative NOW! 7.5 out of 10 shades of red hair dye! 5. Xuso Jones - Victorious - EUROPOP EXTRAVAGANZA! That Euro-phoric trance could do it here. Plus, a little sausage couldn't hurt in Stockholm. 8 out of 10 fist pumps in the air in the club. 6. Barei - Say Yay - Everyone's hype off this one. A little Lady Gaga-esque and lively, this song could also do it with Victorious. I can't describe it... It hits you hard from the first 5 second- no... THE FIRST 3 SECONDS! This definitely ties with Victorious but could even beat that. 8 out of 10 Yay yay yays!
