    Love it! You guys make Eurovision so immediate for us sad sacks who cannot actually be there. And as a fellow American, Sam, folks back home just don’t know what they’re missing. Because, let’s face it, American Idol, etc. are really glorified karaoke contests in comparison.

    Nice video, shame SVT only make the artists available for a minute. Will there be chance of longer interviews later in the week?

    Did Anouk’s interview get cut short? We didn’t hear an answer to Sam’s question.
