The picture is my iTunes and the 10 most played entries so far (this will change before the end of the summer but for now).

Any other news during the day? Not many but I still need to put up a warning for Australia cause of their amazing show and late start number.

If not, something I have avoided so far the fact that Madonna will enter the stage in Tel Aviv and the hype among the Eurovision fans. And I understand, it is amazing to have Madonna there but please… When I read fans almost peeing in their pants over this and actually thinking her participation is proof of her being a Eurovision fan. WHAT!?

How can anyone even believe that Madonna takes part for any other reason than marketing her new soon to be released album? Really? Eurovision is one of the most watched music shows in the world and to be able to promote a new album live in front of such a huge amount of viewers, and get paid for it, not even Madonna (if even still a mega star, not that mega today that she was in the 80s 90s 00s) can say no to that opportunity.

It will be fun to see if EBU will say anything about a new Madonna album coming up, maybe even show the CD cover? I am also curious to see her face latest updates. And who look most like Madonna, Tamta (for Cyprus) or Madonna herself.

But OK, now we wait for a fantastic show and if anyone is able to reach the stage to disturb the contest or any political manifestations which country will be the target? And if Iceland win, and no ban stay on the band Hatari will they or will they not take a chance to wave a Palestinian flag?
