Germany picked its finalists

Gréta and Jónsi: all guns blazing to Baku
After three semi-finals, the Icelandic preselection process Söngvakeppni Sjónvarpsins (a name that always looks like it would roll off the tongue more easily after a shot or three of Brennivín) culminated in a grand final on Saturday night featuring seven songs - six...
Hungary: A poetic tribute

3 finals (Norway, Iceland, Hungary) and two semis
Not quite a Super Saturday yet, depending on which definition you use, but a very busy one! A Dal (Hungary), Söngvakeppni Sjónvarpsins (Iceland) and Melodi Grand Prix (Norway) have come to their final night. Will the big favourites, Greta & Jónsi, Gabi Tóth and...
Who do you miss in the Hungarian final?
Eight entries made it into the final of "A Dal" tonight! That also means: 12 songs didn't manage to qualify from the two semi-finals that lay behind Hungary. We'd like to know: Who do you miss the most in the Hungarian national final? Vote! [polldaddy...
