Winners of Eurovision Song Contest 2008

Kann..ibarat rumah dah siap pahat masih berbunyi. Ntahlah uols, I am always excited about Eurovision Song Contest especially when the participants' songs were as great as this year's in Belgrade!

Thank to Eurovision TV website, I got these photos - it's like I was there hoh?? I wish though!!! I'd like to take photos with my favourite Ani Lorak & Charlotte Perrelli...and most of all nak hambek gambar ngan Dima Bilan biar Miss Coco Chanel ittew jeles :P

Anyway, mak nak ucapkan happy birthday to Kuzz and selamat kembali ke alam blogging kepada Puan Zaiton Sameon a.k.a Goddess Selene skirt singkat basah bawah jambatan :P

Here are some of the photos from the Eurovision song contest held in Belgrade last weekend:




Dima Bilan of Russia with the song Believe (produced by Timbaland) won the competition for Russia (for the very first time). He was helped by a violinist and a skater on stage!



My favourite - Charlotte Perrelli of Sweden with the song Hero. Unfortunately she did not win nor she was in the top ten of the grand final voting results. Norway did so much better with their ballad (they got to no. 5!).



I must say (and agreed with UK's presenter) that Charlotte has the best pins on the stage in this competition! BUT what's with her face and eye?? Suntik kah????




Ani Lorak of Ukraine with the great pop song called Shady Lady performing on stage with her gorgeous male dancers! You should see the official video to this song..she's great!




Ani Lorak did good - she came second for this year's Eurovision. Her real name is Karolina but had to change to Ani Lorak (spelling backward for Karolina) because of some other singer already used the name Karolina a few years back.




Boaz Mauda (20 yrs old) of Israel singing The Fire In Your Eyes (penned by Eurovision Song Contest winner Dana International). He's so fit, isn't he?? Funny how Israel is categorised as part of Europe...hmmmmm. He did well for Israel - 9th position in the final.




Icelandic duo Euroband (Fridrik Omar & Regina Osk) with the upbeat pop-gay-anthem song called This Is My Life. Mak rasa sorang tu PLU yang sorang lagi tu pengkid (ikut mulut hadek hadek kat sini lah, uols). They were placed at 14th position in the final.



Isn't she the cutest and sweetest?? Kalomira of Greece with the song My Secret Combination. She managed to get third place. Memula ingat dia dosi nak memang dos!




Siroshi of Armenia with the dance song Qele, Qele - she was placed 4th!



Occay for Dima Bilans' fans out there - the photo of him showing off his chest and body on the stage. Badril, I think you are right...perhaps this gesture greatly helped him to win!!!!!!!!!!! :P

Hopefully next year we both could travel to Russia for the Eurovision Song Contest 2009!!! Who knows where it'll be held - perhaps either St Petersburg or Moscow....

Guten Tag Köln!

Yes uolss, mak & Avang sekartang ebrada di Köln (Cologne) selepas bermalam di Antwerp, Belgium on Friday Night.

Before we're off to Belgium/ Germany, I'd like to share with uols this video performed by Ani Lorak of Ukraine with the song Shady Lady for the Grand Final of Eurovision Song Contest 2008 in Belgrade tonight!

She's great, she's sexy and she's got the moves!

(She's not just another pretty face on stage but In 2004 Ani Lorak has been a UN Goodwill Ambassador on HIV/AIDS in Ukraine- Bravo to her!)

Enjoy the song....**sambil shaking hips like Ani Lorak ..Shady lady. I'm gonna strike you like thunder, are you ready I wanna make you wonder......

Eurovision 2008 Belgrade - Swedish Entry

It's the time again for the cheesiest, most extravagant, wardrobe-changing, hips-shaking, lyrically-challenged event of the year! YES, It's Eurovision Song Contest!

I am ever so excited about this Saturday's Grand Final of the contest due to be held in Belgrade, Serbia. I may miss this competition though, due to the fact that mak & Avang will be travelling into Belgium/ Germany area BUT hopefully we can still watch it one way or another!

In particular, I am very very keen on this song by Charlotte Perrelli called Hero representing Sweden. She (was with the name Charlotte Nillsson) already represented Sweden in 1999 with the song Take Me To Your Heaven and won the contest! Watch the video...read the lyrics...it's such a great upbeat pop song. Hope you like it too!

(I do like Ukraine's entry too)

Everything has a beginning
Everything comes to an end
Take it or leave it, you better believe it
Be my lover, be my friend

Try to deny what you’re feeling
And you know that your heart will say no
Love will last longer, growing stronger and stronger
If you stay and don’t let go

Oh, out of the light, like a star, like a hero
Love will survive
Oh, taking a fight is the life of a hero
Staying alive
This is a story of love and compassion
Only heroes can tell
Oh, out of the light, like a star, like a hero
Love will survive

Heaven and Earth keep colliding
But we love on a world of its own
Oh, there you can fake it, just make it or break it
Only you can find the one

Oh, out of the light, like a star, like a hero
Love will survive
Oh, taking a fight is the life of a hero
Staying alive
This is a story of love and compassion
Only heroes can tell
Oh, out of the light, like a star, like a hero
Love will survive

Oh, survive
Heroes can live on their own
But heroes never die alone

Oh, out of the light, like a star, like a hero
Love will survive
Oh, taking a fight is the life of a hero
Staying alive
(This is a story of love and compassion)
Heroes can tell
Oh, out of the light, like a star, like a hero
Love will survive

Cover for Charlotte's single Hero...bakpe muka dia macam drag queen moyok jah?? Hiks....

Other songs that I like from this year's competition would be:

1) Qele, Qele by Sirusho representing Armenia.

2) Secret Combination by Kolomoira representing Greece.

3) Believe by Dima Bilan representing Russia.

4) Shady Lady by Ani Lorak representing Ukraine.

5) Casanova by Gisele representing Andorra (sadly she did not make it to the final!!)

All of the songs I have added in my new imeem playlist and embedded in this blog as the spirit of Eurovision emerges from deep inside me! Hehehehe

Not so sure about UK's entry.... hmmm...

p/s It will be Bank Holiday Monday in the UK but my company gives us two days off (Monday & Tuesday)..so.. see uols Tuesday (late) night then!!! Duiiiiiiiiiii!!!
