cloud Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Has anyone seen this yet? Welcome to BBC Xtra English. Today Lilianne is talking to John, who is at the Eurovision Song Contest in Finland. In Helsinki John has been talking to fans of the competitiion. Burhan has been a big fan of Eurovision since he was a boy. The first time he watched the contest on TV was in 1984. Samantha is from Lebanon. She tells John that there is a possibility that the Lebanese star Mika might enter the contest next year. John has also heard rumours that there might be a Palestinian entry as well. At the competition there is also a contest for amateur singers. Aida is one of the contestants. She lives in Finland but is from Iraq. John says that he might enter the amateur competition next year.........maybe. These people are big fans of Eurovision. Perhaps you are a fan of something else - football? - films?

He sings about them. Hello from Barcelona to everyone!!! I heard Mika singing in French those Grace Kelly strange lyrics. Does anyone have them or know where to find them? Should be really hilarious!! Thanxx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have brought him from about 2%, to 33%, and rising. He's way ahead of anyone, even Johnny Depp, who is behind him on 26%. So visit the Sofeminine site and vote for him. BUT, vote vote vote and vote some more, in the EMAs. We have less than a week to go! If Mika is in the Eurovision Song Contest, for God's sake, let him sing one of his own songs. Eurovision songs are rubbish! Love today, from Marilyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
