We are just one day away from the first Eurovision 2010 semi-final. Yes, we have waited for more
than one year to see the next contest. The first contest is mainly east european entries,
or is it just me ? You can view the appearance order at
www.esctoday.com .
In past years we would give all the songs several plays . This year, we are waiting for the stage
performances. And we will judge our favorites upon that . You will then be able to check our
on site blog to see our likes/dislikes.
We have a few new videos this week, starting with
Razoom -Ovnennia,
Kalomoira ft. Fatman Scoop - Please Don't Break My Heart,
or if you are like me, you want to see Kalomoira on stage -
Kalomoira - Please Don't Break My Heart 'live',
an older song just uploaded -
Anna Sedokova - Drama,
the official video for
Helena Paparizou - Psaxno Tin Alitheia,
Janna Friske has a short spot for the World Wildlife Foundation, which you have to see at:
YouTube, and
Despoina Vandi - Yparhei Zoi 'live' on Greek Idol.
We are not for certain if we will be able to watch the ESC performances live, as planned. Or if you cannot watch live,
go to www.eurovision.tv , click on the 'Multimedia' tab,
and select 'Streaming' during or after the event. You will need the latest OctoShape plugin, and the link is on that page.
Select from windows, Mac, or Linux to download and install the browser plugin.
It is a good idea to have this installed and working before the show!

Time to update your links, starting with Leslie -
www.leslie-officiel.com
. Looks beautiful.
Elena Risteska.com is still 'for sale' . Ace Of Base.com has been
renewed, but we are not sure when their website will re-appear. we have
seen a few 'account suspended' pages for bleatyashchie.ru , and
currently both Tina Karol.ua and Tina Karol.net are both showing
'account suspended' pages.
We have a few precious videos of Stoja 'live in New York' , starting
with:
Stoja in NY pt1,
Stoja in NY pt2,
and Stoja in NY pt3.
We also have Meseda Bagaudinova appearing in a new music video, yet not singing, at -
Plazma feat. Meseda - Mystery (The Power Within).
Then we have Leslie playing her latest single on piano -
Tout sur mon père - Version Piano .
Yulia Savicheva performing a few songs from Origami -
Lyubov - Moskva 'live',
and Polovinka.
Despina Vandi live at Thalassa part 1 and
part 2.
We have
been watching a ton of classic movies, including Friday the 13th part 1
through part 6.
Somewhere in there, Jason must have secretly turned our brains into
mush. So we must be safe from the zombies, at the very least. Of course
we have cleaverbs
Favorite
Movies pages , if you haven't seen them before. I am
wondering if we should update the pages. Not much has changed; although
we have seen many 'black and white' and a few 1960s movies that we
could add to our list.
But honestly, we like to watch movies in sets. Typically we will play a
VHS tape with 3 or 4 movies on it. That leaves time for a nap, heheh,
and wake up and watch a movie. Or whatever. More recently, we have been
making DVDRs with 2 movies on each disk.
Anyway, we hope to get back to our usual music hobby pretty soon. We
will have Eurovision 2010 near the end of this month.
Sincerely,cleaverb
