Pillan Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 Here's a new live version of the swedish entry "Euphoria". Loreen perfomed in TV 4 "Humorgalan" last evening!! AMAZING! !Note this is NOT how "Euphoria" will be performed in Baku. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T33cutfGNo4 Here's also from "Humorgalan" last evening. Loreen performs the song "Joga" by Björk.

Olympian2004 Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 I've listened only to a handful of the competing songs so far -- but this one sounds so much like the winning entry. I don't like techno rhythms very much normally, but this one is so stirring and has so many hit qualities. It could become a great hit also outside Scandinavia. And I'd wish another ESC in Scandinavia, this time in Sweden, so badly. I think Stockholm and Oslo did terrific jobs as hosts in 2000 and 2010. So down to earth, charming and professional.

Citius Altius Fortius Posted May 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 The winners of the last five Eurovision Song Contests will do the opening/interval acts in Baku: Ell & Nikki, Lena, Alexander Rybak, Dima Bilan and Marija Šerifović!!!

Scotguy Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 I am not a fan of this for opening.interval acts. Azerbaijan should be showcasing their own music, dance and culture in these acts rather than using foreign, past winners. This is just lazy and just confirms to me that they have the least enthusiasm for this contest for many a year, unlike the first time hosts of the noughties who showcased their countries well.

Citius Altius Fortius Posted May 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 well - I was quite disappointed by the acts of the semi-finals in Düsseldorf - the opening act at the grand final with that "big-band" version of "Satellite" was fantastic!!! The interval act at the grand final was great in the venue, but I doubt that it was good on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is only for the second semifinal. The winners of the last five years will sing a song with traditional instruments with azeri influence. I find it cool. The rest interval acts of the first semifinal and the final will not involve foreigners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Citius Altius Fortius Posted May 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 I am a member of ECG, which is one of the two German fan clubs, which are both part of OGAE international. I wanted to go the Baku, but I decided to focus on "London" this year - it will be my first Olympics, which I watch live and it was a long dream of myself to watch Olympics live. I saw somewhere a great pic of the stage, but I couldn't found it anymore... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing some things from preparation process I have high expectations from this edition. And yes, I wish you good luck in London! I hope I can also visit Olympics once in the future, maybe Rio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
