May 4, 2014

The glammer glitz and pure Euro Fun has begun in ole Copenhagen



Well Eurovision 2014 is here! Already the dans are proving to be the perfect host for Eurovision 2014..
They did it not so long ago in 2001, that was one of the first years that the contest filled a sports arena
 with fans and started a trend that has become common today. No longer do we see dinner jackets and  cocktail skirts as a dress code for a contest that look like a posh cheap Cabaret Show in the 70s 80s!

Australia is taking part this year, if only as an interval act during semi final 2 this is a wonderful step forward for the land down under - What next ? Dare we ask, could Australia have a voting jury and tele vote? That would be exciting and it certainly is a huge event in Australia with SBS doing amazing things.

The songs and this years contestants, to begin with  it looked like Norway's
 Carl Aspen would be the clear favourite for 2014, yet that has now changed. I personally think this song is going to do amazing things on the night. Yet I feel there is some other tunes to beat and Carl
 could fall behind or be pipped at the post in the Final , I have a bunch of personal favourites as well myself along with "Silent Storm"
 As always anything can happen, we can only hope for a fair voting procedure on the Final night, after all the problems unearthed in 2013.

At schlagertunes blog there will be a Top 15 countdown , to show our favourites based mainly on the song content as we have tried to stay clear of too many rehearsal u tube footage from 2014. As remember this is still a song competition.
