Waiting until this weekend comes...


Eurovision Express is currently getting away from all the snow, and has headed South to the Canary Islands for some sun. But, of course, we're still keeping our ear to the ground on the Eurovision front.

We're looking forward to the semi-finals taking place this weekend in Finland, Norway and Iceland.

Here are our tips:

Finland
The best song this Friday evening is the irresistibly quirky Annankadun kulmassa sung by Heli Kajo. It makes us think of something that could be used as part of the soundtrack in a Charlie Chaplin film, and is like something Finland might have sent in the 1970s. It's great!

Norway
Our favourite this week is Venke Knutson with the very catchy Jealous Cause I Love You. We also think Alexander Stenerud is in with a chance of going directly into the Final with Give It To Me. We're a tad disappointed with the entry penned by Rolf Lovland, The Touch, sung by Maria Arredondo. But to be fair we've only heard snippets so far, so things could change!

Iceland
The song that stands out this week is I Believe In Angels, performed by Sigrun Vala, which should sail into the Final.
