Richard has been hard at work to give the website a new look on the home page, by grouping things together and re-arranging the page headings in more priority order.
We will also give the whole home page a new look – but that will happen after Vienna and we will also ask input from our visitors.
When the page was originally created, it was done just to have something to start with and now that we are up and running and with a lot of info on the website, we can start with a new look and experiment a little. I think we are the fastest growing website of the OGAE clubs and we could not have achieved this without the help of a lot of dedicated people. A big thank you for that.
The host nation Austria have finally decided their entry for the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest in Vienna. The Makemakes won the grand final of Wer singt für Österreich over five other contenders.
The six acts and songs were –
Folkshilfe – Who You Are
Zoe – Quel Filou
DAWA – Feel Alive
Celina Ann – Utopia
Johann Sebastian Bass – Absolutio
The Makemakes – I Am Yours
Conchita Wurst performed her latest single, Unstoppable, in the interval.
After international jury and local televoting the Makemakes and DAWA made it to the superfinal. The Makemakes then won on just televoting.
You can see the Makemakes perform I Am Yours below.
Everyone seems to be at the leadup to Melodifestivalen this year. Fellow Queueing Group member from Copenhagen Eurovision 2014 and great comedy talent Kevin Lee was at the Welcome Party for the Final. After globetrotting all over the world with performances in recent months he has found himself back in Stockholm just at the right time.
Fred and Liam have been very hard at work to bring you a taste of the Welcome Party. Nice surroundings and free food and drink and yet the guys stayed on the job and dedicated to ensuring you got a taste of being there.
A big thank you to everybody who has visited the website. There has been an explosion of visitors since we got the flag counter yesterday. People from almost 100 countries have visited the site in the first 2 days since we have the counter. The top 15 countries are
I woke up to a huge SURPRISE this morning, seeing finally a FLAG COUNTER. I have wanted this on the website from day one but was unable to create one. Now Jeff joined the team a few days ago and he did a fantastic job to make this dream come true for me. So after one day, we can see already some great statistics – already people from about 48 countries have visited the website with visitors from RUSSIA taking almost 50% of the visiting statistics.
Congratulations to Linus Svenning, Hasse Andersson, Dinah Nah and Samir & Viktor for winning their duels and proceeding to the final. My predictions were 100% correct! Go me 🙂 So who win will on Saturday?
