... on to Stockholm - Sweden next year.

Interesting issues arise ... I suspect the arena will almost certainly be Globen Arena

IF THE EBU want to downsize the event as intimated earlier this week.

However ...

Meldoifestivalen (the Swedish National Selection) is moving to a new location The Friends Arena which is a combo sports / music venue that eclipses the Globen for size

So some ESC Politics will be involved in the choice.

Total madness being 'proposed' according to Expressen in Sweden today. How about holding the two semis and final IN DIFFERENT CITIES?

The EBU would be crazy to even consider this.

What's behind this proposal?

Presumably would be too expensive all round to be workable.

Besides, why?!

I guess since MF is held in various cities in the run up to the final they think they could do it with ESC.

However MF semis are held weeks in advance of the final not days.

Please. Not Eurovision 2013 so soon.

Threads like this only help magnify the inherent pointlessness of life. Camus would have approved, I'm sure.

Same as it was last time then. Maybe they are going small to save some krone.

Glorious by Cascada is Germany's song for Malmö. Chosen by radio-audience, jury and tele-voting thursday evening.




US-born Natalia Kelly will represent Austria in the 58th Eurovision Song Contest in Sweden with her song Shine. Natalia was in second place after the jury voting in yesterday's national final "Österreich rockt den Song Contest", but the audience vote put her to the top.





I am curious who will represent the UK in Malmö!

And remember: WE ARE ONE

Can anyone explain why we've dropped the uk competition and switched to our entrant being decided by the producers - whilst admittedly the old choosing system wasn't amazingly successful it did at least generate a few hours of saturday night TV show (that produced reasonable ratings) and this new system clearly isn't any better at picking viable entries.

I suspect it's just a temporary change.
We've gone through various ones over the years.

Dropped through cost, ratings really weren't that good.

There's hope though, an increasing number of countries are looking to the EBU to rule that National boradcast eliminators must be held.

The argument, which is very valid, is that it's a Song Contest, and one of it's key aims should be to encourage song writing. Some countries attract thousands of entrants which provides a focus for the industry in each participating country.

I expect once economic conditions 'normalise' then this rule change will gain the necessary support and the UK national selection, in some form, will then return.

I know they've been trying to think up ways of having a competition but just haven't found one they think will work yet.

Get Adele to do it. Hopefully she will come last and that'll be the end of her.
