The name Ira Losco stands for one of Malta’s biggest successes in Eurovision, a second place at the 2002 Eurovision Song Contest in Tallinn, Estonia, with the song 7th Wonder. Ira’s latest single release Me Luv U Long Time is another new addition to our playlist. Watch the video clip here:
The second single release from Rui Bandeira’s new album Sempre A Pensar Em Voces is the track Ainda Me Olhas Com Amor. Check out the video:
Luxembourg’s last Eurovision entry to date happened twenty years ago, at the 1993 Contest in Millstreet, Ireland, where Simone Weis and Jimmy Martin (Modern Times) performed Donne-Moi Une Chance. Jimmy is out with a brand new solo album this week, entitled Wild At Heart, and the single release Love Don’t Live Here Anymore. If this is how a Luxembourg entry would sound in the second decade of the new millennium, the Grand Duchy should definitely return to the Contest. You can visit Jimmy’s website at http://www.jimmymartin.de to read more about his activities. Watch the official music video here

My rankings:
1. Ira Losco – The catchiest and most engaging.
2. Jimmy Martin – a solid rock ballad
3. Rui Bandeira – it’s like listening to an upgraded copy/paste version of his 1999 entry. Easy on the ear.
4. Emmelie De Forest – ignoring the production value of the clip, the chorus reminds me of Kate Bush’s “Running Up that Hill”, and altogether it’s not melodically versatile enough for me.
5. Tooji – Starts promising, but unfortunately evolves into a one-dimensional electronic dance beat.
6. Blue Cafe – same as Tooji…when the synthesized electronic music beat takes over the entire thing, it becomes annoying.
7. Celine Dion – disappointing, as if style was more important than substance. Lacked in genuine emotion.
8. Andrius Pojavis – All I can hear is Dino Merlin’s ‘Love in Rewind’.
9. Milan Stankovich – makes me indifferent. Not impressed by the synthesis of this particular Balkan-pop act.
I think most of the songs here wouldn’t do that well On the actual song contest, even if they underwent some modifications for the 3 minutes rule.
nice design and shares your successes.
