Eurowebby Awards 2007 but no Straighteurovision?


Oh well I guess we have only been open for just 5 weeks now, so don't worry lads, we will get in next year! Seriously vote for our friends and neighbours the schlagerboys as the best blog. Visit http://www.eurowebbys.com/

More eurotravels as Romanian band Todomondo performed for three tv shows in Turkey. On one of the shows they even managed to do a Ruslana and break the stage. At least it was wood flooring as opposed to glass this time. Broken glass on the feet can be very painful!!!

Denmark have announced that one of the ex-band members of Aqua; the guy with the usually spikey bright blue hair will commentate for them. Wouldn't it have been nice if Aqua had actually gone to eurovision with Barbie Girl....Or Docta Jones, Jones, calling docta jones...docta jones, jones, wake up now...or hmmmm....that song out of sliding doors that nobody can ever remember the name of....Does anybody remember Aqua from 2001's fab interval and the fact that lead singer 'Lena' had by her performance, had seemingly got bored with the contest and spent most of it in the bar...well lets remenisc! Don't forget the blue spikey haired dude! Oh and the first few swear words heard in a eurovision song contest. The Swines!!!



Esctoday.com have two good interviews with the Greek singer Sarbel; which straighteurovision is tipping for a top 5, and the KMG's; straighteurovision is not tipping for a top 5. Visit http://www.esctoday.com/ for the interviews.

The most interesting news is about Russian girl group Serebro, or whatever. They say their song is about (according to esctoday) 'real, strong, beautiful girls who know what they want and always get the most out of life'. Hmmm especially when they blurt out the lyrics 'put a cherry on my cake, then taste my cherry pie'. Frankly im not sure who gets the most out of that the boys or the girls, but hey, if its on offer, beggers can't be choosers!!!

I must say the Russian song is a grower; not a winner in straighteurovision's opinion, but strong none-the-less. I'd imagine a top 8....



Talking of russia brings back memories of 1997 and one of the ultimate eurovision diva's of all time. The great Alla Pugacheva. In the imortal words of Terry Wogan 'If the late great Dick Emery wasn't dead, I'd have my suspicions'. Nice one Tex!



Oh by the way, check out the utterly fab Silvia Night's new music video. It starts off like a 1970's porn flick.....and it kinda continues right the way through. It's no 'Congratulations' but still she is as camp as ever!
