Since it's still off-season – the first songs for 2014 will be selected in December –, I was listening to some favorites of mine that did not win their national finals in previous years and therefore didn't go to Eurovision.

I must admit that I usually only follow the national pre-selections in the Nordic and Baltic countries. Exceptions have of course occurred.

Adelén - Bombo

Norway 2013 – 2nd place in the national pre-selection – it's pure trash but so much fun

Nora Foss-Al Jabri - Somewhere Beautiful

Norway 2012 - 3rd place in the national pre-selection

http://youtu.be/qTYsvQALckE

Zlata Ognevich - The Kukushka

Ukraine 2011 - among the 3 finalists - Zlata represented Ukraine in 2013 and finished 3rd

http://youtu.be/Nd_N6VsdIuQ

Esma & Lozano - Imperija

Macedonia 2013 - the song was replaced before the contest

http://youtu.be/ofB4nvQvZPI

Lauris Reiniks - Banjo Laura

Latvia 2011 - 2nd place in the national pre-selection

http://youtu.be/2Hjz5n0H9l8

The list could probably go on forever...

Our national selection will begin next Saturday with the first of four qualification heats, eventually leading up to a big final on March 8th.

The biggest name competing this year is undoubtedly Elena Paparizou, who won the Eurovision Song Contest for Greece in 2005, and also represented Greece in 2001. This time she will try her luck here in Sweden. She was born here, but her parents are from Greece.

Other well-known names are Martin Stenmarck, who represented Sweden in the ESC 2005, and Alcazar, making their 5th attempt in the Swedish selection.

Poor Elena Paparizou only went to MF's Andra Chansen – who would have thought.

Next three entries:

Finland 2014: Softengine / "Something Better"

Italy 2014: Emma Marrone / "La mia città"

I hope Sweden sends either Sanna or Alcazar.

I think Germany will either send Unheilig or Santiano... the other 6 participants of the national final – Oceana, The Baseballs, Elaiza, MarieMarie and Das gezeichnete Ich – only have an outside chance to win.

Ireland 2014: Cann-linn feat. Kasey Smith / "Heartbeat"

Poland 2014: Donatan & Cleo / "My Slowianie"

    • Happy Mother's Day from Ernestine Johnson Morrison (Nurse Shanice) video, sound on https://www.instagram.com/p/DJhGWm_ABNl/          
    • @BoldRestless @fivethej Apologies for the late reply! But yes as far as I know I do still have the tape. I remember asking for instructions on this wayy back in 2020, but I will definitely reach out. Only issue is I know my VHS tape collection is in my basement, which looks like the Chancellor mansion attic at the moment.

      Also I while I still have DVD/VHS combo player do they even hook-up to modern TV sets or still need a CRT TV? Just asking as I know some folks being off off guard when trying to hook older equipment like some VHS sets and older game consoles quite unsuccessfully 
    • It's evident that there was reset of Derek and Ashley's storyline. The attempt to build tension over Derek not resting enough after being injured on the job was not working but the tension over moving in together is. The characters are still not thrilling, but today they at least were worth paying attention to. The writers do want Ashdre and they are easing toward it again. 
    • Yes, I believe that is the case. ABC wanted Siobhan and Joe to be a very popular couple and apparently didn't think Sarah Felder was glamorous enough. I don't know if this story is true, but I heard somewhere that Felder told everyone off at her farewell party because of the reason she was fired. If it's not true, it should be!

    • And so it's Andre and Ashley again? Why don't they go ahead and make something bad happen between them? I don't trust the stereotypical vibe. I don't.
    • I guess neither Stephanie or Leo are ever going to investigate the gaping plot holes in the Bob-ette storyline. Other random Thoughts for Thu If Sophia was going to leave Tate alone after he was faint and had a fever, thank goodness she's not planning on raising a baby! Finally, Xander expressed that this situation with Philip was not Victor's desire.  Victor clearly wrote his desires in his will right before he died, and those plans did not include Philip at Titan. I can't with the laws of Salem.  Adults with nut allergies can sue for negligence when they eat a bakery known for using pistachio in their scones, but people discuss insider trading and kidnapping like it is no big deal. It is so simple to research why they have no standing to sue to Sweet Bits (regardless of what the server said). I ignored Brady and Kate being on the board, because that was plausible.  But, Abe is on the board of directors?  That's a stretch. I'm staying mum on Versavix for today, I've had my say....    
    • I do love that the episode ended with Kat exclaiming when she was alone "Gotcha!"

      For real. Leslie is going to lock her up in a basement
    • It is amazing how everyone in GC just swaps partners and is instantly in love and their previous relationship never happened. All while everyone’s exes live in the same town and go to the exact same 4 places as each other.
