Some random tit-bits
There've been some interesting pieces of info flying around recently. Just thought I'd fill you in on some of them...
- The BBC have said that they'll announce exactly what's going to happend "around February 28th". This is very frustrating as this is most easily the latest that any broadcaster has revealed their plans. Apart from in 1956 when one country picked its entry too late. Guess who it was? Yeah, the BBC. God bless them.
- Billie Piper will NOT be representing the UK this year. A list was published this afternoon (a hoax, according to the Beeb) contatining the following names - Emma Bunton, Katrina Leskanich, Steven Scott-Lee, Ace of Base, Charlotte Church, Son Of Dork, Chico, Tina Cousins, Morrissey and 4Tune. The BBC called this list of names 'hilarious'.
- The Andorran entrants Anonymous have said that their song will "make the walls dance". If this is true of any Andorran song then it probably deserves some sort of rich reward.
- Romanian entrants Locomondo may have to change their name because some Greek group also possess it. Wonder what they'll call themselves?
- There's a song in the Armenian national final called "My Story" which is also the name of the favourite to win the Georgian final. I doubt the Armenian "My Story" is quite as legendary as the Georgian song of the same name, as that particular song is fantastic but bonkers.
- The hosts of this year's Eurovision Song Contest have been announced as Janna and Mikko who look like a lovely young couple. They haven't got much to live up to following last year's Maria "amazing" Menounos and Sakis "69 69 69" Rouvas.
- DJ Bobo, the Swiss entrant, has said that his song will be a pumping disco tune with Balkan influence. If he is right about this, he could pull off a fantastic Swiss result. This is, however, the man who had a hit with the rather un-Balkan "Chihuahua" so I won't get excited just yet.
- "Work Your Magic" from Belarus is the first official fan favourite of 2007 following an annual poll that takes place amongst fans every year. Not a bad choice. Norway came 7th out of 11. Boo hiss.
