As I post this entry, the first semi-final for the 2008 Eurovision Song Contest has just got underway. The final is on Saturday, so there’s no time for a top 10, but I’ll highlight my favourite five songs this week.
Singing tonight for a place on the final, and to go head-to-head with 24 other nations from Europe, is Kalomira, representing Greece. Her song Secret Combination features traditional Mediterranean instruments, but with a modern pop sound. Think of Holly Valance‘s 2002 hit Kiss Kiss (even the video has similarities) and you’ll get close to the mark.
But tonight, with her catchy slice of Greek pop, will Kalomira get enough marks to shimmy her way through?
