Links to everything by ESC Insight, the European charts, the American view of Eurovision, and taht song over the postcards. It’s another daily Eurovision List.
Who won the semi-finals; how did Azerbaijan win; a bundle of Dusseldorf trivia; the start of the 2012 entry list; and Paddy O’Connell reveals a little bit more of the role of the Commentator… it’s your final Eurovision List of the 2011 Contest.
Looks like the ESC Insight team are heading to Baku next year, as Ell and Nikki win the 56th Eurovision Song Contest.
