euphoria

Yes! Molitva put me to sleep.

2008, 2011 and 2013 are such typical eurovision songs, they make me cringe.
Helena and Loreen are obv the best

Can someone explain Eurovision to me?

It's an annual song competition held among the member countries of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) since 1956.
Each member country submits a song to be performed on live television and radio and then casts votes for the other countries' songs to determine the most popular song in the competition.

Chart performance agrees with me as well

My favorite last year. Once it was clear Emmelie would win, I was hoping she'd at least be top 3

I was looking for UK commentary on youtube, but if you and MusicTalker want to see it there (though not in HD and with Spanish commentary



For HD and no commentary (best way to watch in my opinion), and news go to the official site http://www.eurovision.tv/page/webtv?program=83843 and just download a little extension to make it play

I ADORE this contest because of the music, why it was made, the friends I've made and because it's always close to my birthday

Forgot to say, more viewers than the Superbowl annually

Fairytale

My family has been watching Eurovision for a long time but that song made me start watching it

Hard Rock Hallelujah

Thank you! Do they usually end up actually being successful?

The songs and artists? Not really. Although, ABBA and Celine Dion won the contest, and they sorta went on to do great things.

Like QueenCarrie said.
It's usually their Eurovision song that brings in the coins then bye bye :/
Well, they might become established in their home country but long-term international success has only been granted to a select few - let's change that this year

'My number one' and 'Euphoria'. Helena is competing for Sweden this year I think. She's like Greek but born and raised in Sweden. Her new song is called "Survivor"
