Tor-de-Force in Bodø

Eurovision Express is delighted, not to mention 50 big ones better off, after Torstein Sødal with Eastern Wind made it direkt til Spektrum in tonight's Norwegian MGP semi-final.

Torstein, along with the King of Trolls with Far Away, saw off competition from the Boobylicious Lene Alexander with Sillycone Valley to snatch victory.

So the line-up is almost complete with 6 of the 8 finalists decided...and what a final it promises to be.

Our hopes are with Veronica Akselen with Am I supposed to love again? and Maria Haukaas Storeng with Hold on be strong. They face stiff competition from the King of Trolls and also from the Sami song - Andagassii. Who knows, even Onkle Torstein might prove a surprise winner.....and then there's always the 2 songs yet to make it to Spektrum from the Sistesjansen. How exciting!

And now, the Eurovision Express moves onto Malta! Choo Choo!
