MGP, or Eurovision Song Contest, if you like.


Today is the norwegian final. We are going to decide who to send to the european final. ESC is not the place to find real, good music. Let me introduce the four finalists:

1: Eastern winds
Ballade.. Boring. Even with a strong vocal. But I think Europe is ready for more exiting music.

2: How am I supposed to love again?
Gypsy tango. But not the strongest vokal, I'm afraid. They've used the easiest trick in the book.. modulation.

3: Far away
Performed by "Kings of Trolls", viking warriors and a troll on the stage.. Say no more!!

4: Hold on, be strong
Strong vokal, okay lyrics, but the melody is a bit boring. Perhaps the strongest contribution from Norway this year. Songwriter: a 16 year old Mira Craig.

Edit: Maria & Mira won the Norwegian final. We probably won't win the international final, but whatever. At least we don't send "trolls and viking warriors"...

Dear Astrid!
We agree with your thoughts about the Winner og The Norwegian final in The European Melody Grand Prix.

She is a nice singer with a strong voice, and the melody she sang sounded relaxing. But her legs will probably not be goodlooking enough for The Eastern European tast...

We wish you a a nice trip back to studentlife - and all the best about coming exam!

Steinar and Torunn
