Safura to sing Drip drop in Oslo
Azerbaijani public broadcaster Ictimai TV has today confirmed that Safura Alizadeh, the country's candidate for Eurovision 2010, will be performing Drip drop in Oslo.
Safura was chosen as Azerbaijan's entrant for Eurovision 2010 back on March 2nd. The jury preferred her over Milk & Kisses and Maryam Shabanova, but were not sure about what song to send to Oslo. Ictimai TV has officially confirmed today that Drip drop will be their entry next May. Drip drop has been written by Stefan Örn and Sandra Bjurman.

Safura Alizadeh - Drip drop

Azerbaijan will compete at the second semifinal of Eurovision 2010, on May 27th.

I think that Safura is young and very pretty. However notice how weak she is live in your video. I don't think that she has much of a voice. Here she is pre-recorded.

Armenia Eurovision 2010 - Eva Rivas-Apricot Stone

I'm not impressed much with Eva Rivas either and think that songs terrible.

Nevertheless, I can't believe how seriously some nations seem to take Eurovision. Who will win this years, blatantly, rigged geo-politically motivated European gay, cheese contest? Hooo the tension of it all. lol

Heres the video that Safura "almost drowned" making.

Mind you, she's only 17 and I suppose you have to give her credit. As she's obviously very ambitious.

Safura should be married, to a Turkish goat hearder and on her ninth kid by now like any other middle aged, Azer women. lol

No I do like Safura and she seems like such a bicthy little princess, that she could win and is already one of the favorites.

Eva Rivas is a very good looking woman. However if you ask me, she has had quite a bit of cosmetic surgery and I don't like the song/video much either as it's "deeper" meaning will be lost on the audience.

Eurovision is so rigged politically, wacky, camp and over the top that it's comical.

According to wikipedia:

"It is also one of the most-watched non-sporting events in the world, with audience figures having been quoted in recent years as anything between 100 million and 600 million internationally"

Re: Eurovision 2010

We passed to the final and will perform on No. 21 on Saturday

Also, in my opinion, our performance was by far the best of all in the night, the most creative and catchy. Besides, only the fact of Jivan Gasparyan's presence gave it an extra.

This was my first time watching Eurovision and will probably be my last, never before have i sat through a sorrier bunch of music than this. Germany had no right to be in first. Russia and the UK should just been disqualified for having such bad songs. so many people couldn't even sing.


I'm happy Israel gave us 12 points, to bad we didn't give them any though, their song was actually decent, and we probably could have gained more through giving israel points than we could georgia

Re: Eurovision 2010

Armenia might have done a little better if this Eva girl could properly pronounce "apricot." Otherwise, the song was quite dreadful.

that's what i've always said. I pronounce the the "AP" in apricot like the "AP" in Application, not like "APE"


I mentioned this on the youtube video of the song once and basically everyone attacked me and generally said I was an idiot for thinking this and that "APE-ricot" is the right way to say it.


As for the dreadfulness of the song, while it was quite bad it was no where near as bad as most of the other countries' songs, for all this supposed taste and culture Europe has they sure have none when it comes to music
