Romania - we want U!

The 13 songs competing to represent Romania in Dusseldorf are now available to listen to here.

We loved Ovi and Paula's Playing With Fire, and we reckon Romania is on to another winner if they pick Claudia Pavel and the fantastic ballad I Want U To Want Me. Enjoy the performance below.



The Romanian national final takes place on New Year's Eve - let's hope they pick Claudia's amazing song!

Junior Eurovision, and Georgia's on our mind....

This weekend sees the 8th Junior Eurovision Song Contest take place in Minsk, Belarus.

Eurovision Express has followed JESC all the way since 2003 when we ventured over to Copenhagen to cheer on the UK's Tom Morley. Of course the UK no longer takes part, and we have to watch the show on the internet these days.

14 songs are battling it out. Some of our favourite songs come from Belgium, Sweden, Armenia and Latvia. But we reckon that if there's any justice Mariam from Georgia should triumph with her Lady Gaga-esque Mari Dari. It's well performed and catchy as anything.

Enjoy one of the rehearsals below.
