Eurovision Presents – JESC
OK, so it was a terrible transition! But life has been busy here with Christmas and Eurovision is making it even more hectic! One place which will certainly be feeling the Eurovision buzz is Armenia, who just recently won the “junior” version of Europe’s favourite song contest. Young Maléna put on a stellar performance of her song Qami Qami and after a nail-biting voting sequence was crowned. I did promise my personal rankings of the show so I will drop them in this article alongside the official result. Winning or not though, all the children put on phenomenal performances and did their countries proud. It wouldn’t surprise me if we saw some of them at Eurovision in the future.
Qami Qami
Eurovision Presents – ESCZ
The next piece of Eurovision content to unwrap is the results of ESCZ (Czechia’s Eurovision Selection). This concluded with the song Lights Off being chosen for Eurovision sung by the incredible group We Are Domi. So congratulations to everyone out there who voted for them! As my runner up, I am fairly happy with this outcome. For anyone still curious of my full ranking though check it out here! I’d love to hear your thoughts on the results and find out who will be stanning the Czech Republic this year!
Lights Off
Eurovision Presents – Festivali i Këngës 60
There’s more? Well I’ve snow more festive puns left but we have to talk about the Albanian Eurovision contestant being picked tonight! The Eurovision holiday of the season, Albania’s traditional Festivali i Këngës 60 has it’s final tonight! Which means you have guessed it yet another selection of awesome songs to listen to and rank! I hope many of my readers (if any of you exist, please say hi) will get a chance to enjoy the show tonight. Whilst it can be quite time-consuming slap bang amongst the festivities it is always a wonderful celebration of Albanian song and I’d thoroughly recommend it! It’s just madness that after today we will know not one, not even two but three Eurovision entries.
