It is great to see eurovision in Norway (Or Bergen, in Bergen they like to say they are not from Norway, but from Bergen)
Song-wise this year is OK, but not my favourite.
1 :be: Sandra Kim - J'aime la vie :12:(Great winner, iconic)
2 :is: ICY - Gleðibankinn :12: (One of my favourite guilty pleasures of all time, amazing debut)

10 :at: Timna Brauer - Die zeit ist einsam :7:
11 :no: Ketil Stokkan - Romeo :6:++ (This is a fun performance, but the song is just OK, i would have preffered this or this from the national final)

1987
Great year, strongly considered giving the win to Finland or Italy, but in the end it has to be Ireland

1 :ie: Johnny Logan - Hold Me Now :12:(Deserved to win, great song and great singer. Jonny Logan won again for a very good reason)
2 :fi: Vicky Rosti & Boulevard - Sata salamaa :12: (This is just epic)
3 :it: Umberto Tozzi & Raf - Gente di mare :12: (Great song)
4 :be: Liliane Saint-Pierre - Soldiers of Love :10:
5 :nl: Marcha - Rechtop in de wind :8:+
6 :cy: Alexia - Aspro-mavro :8:
7 :no: Kate Gulbrandsen - Mitt liv :7: (Song 6, clothes 8, Hair 12, which means 7 combined since the song is the most important)
8 :de: Wind - Lass die Sonne in dein Herz :7:
9 :yu: Novi fosili - Ja sam za ples :7:
10 :ch: Carol Rich - Moitié, moitié :7:
11 :se: Lotta Engberg - Boogaloo (Fyra bugg och en Coca-Cola) :7:- (They had to change the song title and the chorus to not breaking the anti-commercial rules of eurovision. This song reminds me of a planned trip to warm southern europe that got lost somewhere in Southern-Sweden instead)
12 :dk: Anne-Cathrine Herdorf & Bandjo - En lille melodi :6:
13 :is: Halla Margrét - Hægt og hljótt :5:

Pretty awful year, to many average ballads

1 :fi: Anneli Saaristo - La dolce vita :10: (Very interresting and underappreciated entry, the best song in a bad year)
2 :dk: Birthe Kjær - Vi maler byen rød :10:

11 :lu: Park Café - Monsieur :5:+
12 :se: Tommy Nilsson - En dag :5:+
13 :yu: Riva - Rock Me :5: (Helped by the running order by being last, and being an upbeat song after LOADS of ballads. It is dated and should not have won, but it is OK)
14 :no: Britt Synnøve Johansen - Venners nærhet :5: (Great singer, but the song is boring, she has gone on to better things later. Should definetely not have won the national final. Optimist is the song norwegians remember from this year, and would have been my favourite)
15 :il: Gili Netanel & Galit Burg-Michael - Derekh Hamelekh :5:
16 :be: Ingeborg - Door de wind :5:

Decent year song-wise, the hosts shows that being good at singing doen`t mean you are good at hosting eurovision(Hilarious that they only speak in Italian, if the contest is in Glasgow next year i hope they speak in Scottish Gaelic only)
Off course France had the best song

1 :fr: Amina - C'est le dernier qui a parlé qui a raison :12: (A masterpiece, and so interesting. Amazing voice and vocals)
2 :it: Peppino di Capri - Comme è ddoce 'o mare :12: (A Canzone napoletana in eurovision have to be 12 points, beautiful)
3 :gr: Sophia Vossou - I anixi :10:+ (Needed epic sax guy for 12 points, that saxophone guy is not epic)
4 :fi: Kaija Kärkinen - Hullu yö :8:+
5 :il: Duo Datz - Kan :8:
6 :se: Carola - Fångad av en stormvind :8:- (Very good song, but not a winner. Carola should rather have won in 1983)
7 :tr: İzel Çeliköz, Reyhan Karaca & Can Uğurluer - İki Dakika :7:+
8 :pt: Dulce Pontes - Lusitana paixão :7:+
9 :cy: Elena Patroklou - SOS :7:

14 :ie: Kim Jackson - Could It Be That I'm In Love :5:
15 :no:Just 4 Fun - Mrs. Thompson :5: (The only time NRK went for an internal selection, and they go with this average song?!?)
16 :is: Stefán & Eyfi - Nína :5:
17 :uk: Samantha Janus - A Message to Your Heart :4: (Realy like the seriously dark lyrics, and the melody and staging is fun. The combination of the two is asolutely awful, and makes me very unconfortable. Are you supposed to dance to the opening verse that goes

Half the world is hungry
Just through being born
And every day is a compromise
For a grain of corn
?
Wonder why they combined these lyrics with that melody

This year is not that great, many average songs.
I laughed when the hosts suddently spoke in Swedish.

11 :se: Arvingarna - Eloise :6: (OK Dansband song. 0 points for not giving any points to Norway, the Swedes have given many neighbour points to many mediocre Norwegian songs, but not when it was needed this year, very odd)

Great year, even greater because Norway won with Norways best ever entry. Very uneven year though, and my bottom 7 has rarely been as awful as this

1 :no: Secret Garden - Nocturne :12: (Great piece of music, beautiful, love Secret Garden)
2 :gr: Elina Konstantopoulou - Pia prosefhi :12: (Amazing entry)
3 :es: Anabel Conde - Vuelve conmigo :12: (Amazing, unlucky to only get third)
4 :dk: Aud Wilken - Fra mols til Skagen :10:
5 :cy: Alexandros Panayi - Sti fotia :10:-
6 :se: Jan Johansen - Se på mig :10:- (Great song. The Swedish jury didn`t have a clue and gave no points to Nocturne. Swedish newspapers even complained about Nocturne, saying it wasn`t a real song, and that the result was a parody. They said itwould never become a hit. This shows that parts of Sweden already in 1995 had a overcommercialized and simple approach to music)

My main problems are the repetitive melody, and me not liking the mixing of Engelsk and Norsk. Should have sent Lys instead)

This is a bad year, both because the song quality is not that good, but also because they removed the language rule so lots of countries could sing their song in English so that everyone could undertand the bad lyrics.

Removing the orchestra from eurovision is another crime to add to the long list of crime Israeli authorities have commited.

1 :hr: Doris Dragović - Marija Magdalena :12: (Great entry, very fun performance)

The new millenium of Eurovision starts absolutely terribly, this year gets sightly better after the 3 first awful entry, but still a very bad year (Exept for Sweden, Denmark and Estonia)

1 :se: Roger Pontare - When spirits are calling my name(Når vindarna viskar mtt namn) :12: (An epic entry in every way. I especialy love the Swedish version)
2 :dk: Olsen Brothers - Fly on wings of love (Smuk som et stjerneskudd) :12: (Great winner, love that a timeless song like this one in a year filled with so-called current pop, which is very dated today)
3 :ee: Ines - Once in a lifetime :8:-
4 :ie: Eamonn Toal - Millennium of love :7:- (It is downhill after this for Ireland. Why did they stop sending good entries?)
5 :cy: Voice - Nomiza :7:-
6 :at: The Rounder Girls - All to you :6:+
7 :ro: Taxi - The moon :6:+
8 :lv: Brainstorm - My star :6: (Decent debut, one of Latvias best stil, which is a bit sad)
9 :no: Charmed - My heart goes boom :6: (Ok early 2000s pop, but early 2000s is not exactly least favourite era of pop music. There was a few slightly better songs in the national final, but nothing that would do much better results-wise than this one)
10 :tr: Pınar Ayhan & The SOS - Yorgunum anla :6:
11 :ru: Alsou - Solo :6:-

19 :be: Nathalie Sorce - Envie de vivre :2:-
20 :ch: Jane Bogaert - La vita cos'è? :1:
21 :uk: Nicki French - Don't play that song again :1: (The title of the song is very fitting to decribe my thoughts about it)
22 :nl: Linda Wagenmakers - No goodbyes :0:
23 :il: PingPong - Sameach :0:
24 :mk: XXL - 100% te ljubam -:1: (So bad i had to invent negative points)
