Netherlands after 34 years have won a Eurovision Title again!

it was back in Stockholm 1975, that the group Teach-in sung & won Eurovision Song Contest.

with 'Ding-a-Dong' see here

Since then in recent times The Netherlands have struggled to even make the Final, in fact it was back in

Eurovision 2004 when Re-Union sung 'Without You' & gave Holland a 20th place in the final.

Now at long last things are turning around for the dutch, and about time- its only a

Junior Eurovision Winning title but hey, its a massive step in the right direction.

Out of 13 countries last night saw a new victory for Holland.

The song is real fun called 'Click,Clack' Ralf wrote the song - No, he does not play the fiddle, but he

does tap instead- well done Ralf.

And Netherlands see you next in Oslo...

the whole weekend Friday Saturday & Sunday. We shall see both semi finals & the Final, & the EURO Party's

Plus Australia has its own song in the ESC in Moscow !! Two Aussie songwriters
Cameron Giles-Webb and John Porteils did the co-writing on Greece's song "This is Our Night" via a mutual friend they volenteered for the songwriting job from hometown Sydney.

Dimitris Kontopoulos contacted a freind of ours to see if we were up for the lyric writing task! we said "Yep" Sakis has made a big splash with "Shake it" last time at ESC in 2004- When he ripped off his shirt. This year there has been secret rehearsals going on in London, where Greece plan to reveal a secret combination factor from Sakis on 

the night!! Just MORE of the same, like above
