Sounds great to us!

Eurovision Express has just caught up with Sounds Like Teen Spirit - the film that revolves around some of the participants at the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2007.

Jamie J Johnson's film concentrates on the entrants from Belgium (Trust), Cyprus (Yiorgos Ioannades), Georgia (Mari Romelashvili) and Marina, one of the girls from the Bulgarian group, Bon Bon.

It's a great little film - by turns funny, sad, hopeful and uplifting. The Cypriot singer talks candidly about being bullied, and the Bulgarian girl seems especially upset since her father left home. The girl from Georgia carries the weight of her whole country on her shoulders and is delighted when she comes 5th.

The Belgians, thankfully, add a bit of light relief, seeming a little less stressed and concerned about winning - which is just as well because they came 15th!

Although the film deals with disappointment, ultimately it reveals the joy of being a kid and taking part in Eurovision.

Highly recommended! Check out the trailer below!

..and Su can tell everybody...this is Your Song!

Rumour has it that Elton John is to write next year's UK song for Eurovision. And even more bizarre, the rumour goes on to suggest that the singer would be UK actress Su Pollard - of Hi-De-Hi and Christmas Panto fame! What would Miss Cathcart say??

It must be the sunstroke, this surely can't be true, can it??

By the way that's Elton on the right!
