ALMOST REACHING THE TOP AT EUROVISION – 2013

Morten Thomassen writes another article on a song that ended up in second place in its participating year. ESC Covers google translated it from Norwegian to English.

One country that has what appears to be one credit card with open credit for use in developing a cool stage show is our Azerbaijani friends.

The year 2013 was no exception and Farid Mammadov really impressed, or maybe it was the dancer he used that impressed us?

As usual, I was almost saying that a fairly ordinary song is lifted quite a few notches up and becomes very watchable and quite cool.

Azerbaijan had organized the final the year before and was probably quite satisfied with such a position and up to the Danish first place there were a total of 47 points.

Down to third place, it was a comfortable 20 points, and as you know, Ukraine finished there.

“Hold Me” was the name of the song . This is their only silver place in this competition and after this they have actually barely managed to get into the top ten in terms of results.

It is possible that there may be a reason for wanting a reunion with Farid. Because if Wikipedia is to be believed, he is still an active artist, but it has been bad with record releases.

He supposedly got married and moved to Los Angeles, but when I check Facebook he has moved back to Baku.

It is quite possible that a new participation in the ESC could boost his artist career again, what does he have to lose?
