Junior Stands For You and Me....JESC!

Regular readers of Eurovision Express will know that professional duty drew us to Copenhagen back in 2003 to witness the very first Junior Eurovision. We had high hopes that Tom Morley would carry off the crown with his fantastic entry, My Song For The World. It wasn't to be, but it's still one of the best Junior Eurovision songs ever.

The Junior Contest has changed a lot, with most Western countries giving it a wide berth. From primetime on ITV1, Eurovision Express is now forced to watch the show on the internet.

Last year we were delighted to see Belarus come out on top, especially as we won a few pennies at the bookies!

But who's going to win this year's Contest, which takes place this Saturday in Cyprus? It's difficult to say, as no one song stands out.

Later in the week we'll be announcing who we think will be in the final shake-up, but, for now, why not judge for yourself by clicking on the video below to hear small snippets from all 15 entries.
