You Wouldn't Want To Be Doing Anything On March 10th

• For those who are following National Final season (and if your not why are you reading this) will notice that we previously suggested that there may not be a Super Saturday this year as it looked previously, as many National Finals looked set to be held on a weekday. Now the inverse has occured. Every Saturday looks set to be Super Saturday. From now until the 10th March every Saturday looks set to deliver us 3-4 more songs each time. However the 10th March will bring at least 5 new songs. Sweden, Moldova, Portugal, Romania and Serbia will all either present or select their Eurovision Song. While this makes for exciting Saturday nights, as a lone blogger this will make life a little difficult trying to keep up with everything and I look forward to the challenge. 
• For anyone who has not noticed Lise Karlnese has been chosen as the wildcard in MGP. We are not overly surprised by this decision. We suspected it would be her or The Canoes. Anyway well done to her. We have already begun working on the Norwegian reviews for the final.
• Finally we would like to extend our sympathies to the family of Noel Kelehan who was the conductor of many Irish Eurovision entries, including five winners. He will be sadly missed by Eurovision fans worldwide. May he rest in peace.

News Flash (Again)

Our usual news flash which involves bullet points, condensing the news into bite-sized chunks. Here we go....

• Rambo Amadeus will sing "Euro Neuro" at ESC for Montenegro.....that should give something to laugh about.
• If your looking to laugh at something now, Georiga only recieved 13 songs for their selection. Last year they had 50 and sent Elderine....imagine what crap they will send this year.
• Ireland will announce their candidates for Eurosong shortly (I expect by Monday) and the songs will be revealed on the Mooney Show on RTÉ Radio 1 on Thursday 9th February - More information as it comes.
• According to nicerodds.co.uk Denmark are the early favourites to win ESC 2012.
