Will it be 3rd time lucky for Chiara?


Eurovision Express favourite Chiara is in the list of the final 56 songs that have been selected by the Maltese broadcaster. From November the songs will be whittled down to 20 for a national final on 7 February.

Chiara, of course, came 3rd in the 1998 Contest with The One That I Love, and then went one better in 2005 with Angel. So fingers crossed that it could be third time lucky with her 2009 entry which is entitled What If We. The song is written by 2 Belgians - Gregory Bilsen and Marc Paelinck, the latter of whom wrote Belgium's Eurovision entries in 2002 and 2004 - Sister and 1 Life.

Other familiar names amongst the composers are Eurovision legends Ralph Siegel and John O'Flynn (aka Bernd Meinunger), who have no fewer than 3 songs in the running. We quite like the sound of Tonight at the Opera.

But ultimately for Eurovision Express it's all about Chiara. Valetta 2010? Yes please....
