jawnbc | 14 Finalists for 50th Anniversary Show Leaked by Danish press!

[Pinched from here]

As many of you know, the EBU has conducted a web poll to determine 14 finalists for the big 50th Eurovision anniversary show in October (live from Denmark). The public got to choose 10 songs (2 from each of 10 years of entrants), plus 4 wild cards selected by a jury. Here they are:

1956-1965
1958 - Italy - Domenico Modugno - Nel blu di pinto di blu (Volare)
1965 - Luxembourg - France Gall - Poupée de cire poupée de son

1966-1975
1968 - United Kingdom - Cliff Richard - Congratulations
1973 - Spain - Mocedades - Eres tu
1974 - Sweden - ABBA - Waterloo

1976-1985
1976 - United Kingdom - Brotherhood of Man - Save your kisses for me
1980 - Ireland - Johnny Logan - What’s another year
1982 - Germany - Nicole - Ein bißchen Frieden

1986-1995
1987 - Ireland - Johnny Logan - Hold me now
1988 - Switzerland - Céline Dion - Ne partez pas sans moi

1996-2005
1998 - Israel - Dana International - Diva
2000 - Denmark - Olsen Brothers - Fly on the wings of love
2003 - Turkey - Sertab - Everyway that I can
2005 - Greece - Helena Paparizou - My number one

Originally the big 4 were each guaranteed a song but there’s no France. My guess is that Ein bißchen Frieden and Eres Tu were jury choices; I wonder which 2 of the last 4 were--Sertab? Israel?

Oooh I’m already so excited my nipples could cut glass!
