Interesting Facts about Eurovision Song Contest
Ticket sales were launched on December 12, 2010 at 12:12 pm on the website www.dticket.de - the only dealer authorised to resell tickets for the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest. They were sold out in
less than 6 hours!
There were four cities bidding for the privilege of hosting the Eurovision Song Contest. Berlin, Dusseldorf, Hamburg, and Hannover, each making an extraordinary effort to win the coveted honour. However, there could be only one winner!! Dusseldorf!!
In 1983 the song entry from the Turkish participant was entitled "Opera" and the entire song consisted of that one word being repeated over and over again. In 2011, the Turkish song entry is an amazing improvement! Keep watching this blog. Their video will be posted Here!
Again in 1983 (there must have been a full moon out) Spain's song, entitled "La La La" consisted of no fewer than 138 la la la's throughout the song. But I have seen their entry for 2011 and it is no less than positively fantastic! I cannot say which day their video will be posted, but stay tuned to this blog!
Every day until May 8 I will be posting a music video of each one of the semi-finalists of the Eurovision Song Contest. On May 9, I will post the last three (my top favorites). Enjoy the videos!
