NO-Way!

Every time I try and predict a winner for Eurovision I seem to jinx my choice, but I am impressed with the Norwegian entry- and to really appreciate it you have to experience the whole package. So here is Alexander Rybak performing his entry "Fairytale" live-


He just says winner to me; young, cute, male, singing in English, playing a bit of the old violin, works the camera, has fun backing dancers, is a bit of a clap along, stomp the feet number and I don't think anyone in those other countries where ESL prevails will mind the lyrics so much. (the one weakness I think). If he sings it well on the night he'll do very well...

he's the bookie's favourite for sure. And apparently those 3 dancers are a very famous Norwegian dance act. Aah Eurovision, it's the best song contest in the world!!
