A few familiar names

Amongst the line-up are some familiar names. Yll Limani, writer of Auron Ismaili’s track, finished third in last December’s Festivali i Këngës which was won by Lindita. Talking of Lindita, her entry World was composed by Klodian Qafoku. Klodian is behind two of this year’s Junior Fest entries. Perhaps one of these entries will follow in Klesta Qehaja’s footsteps?

My first memory of watching the Eurovision Song Contest was back in 2001 and, over the years, my passion and enthusiasm for the contest has very much turned into an obsession. I adore music and I love geography, so this contest is a natural fit for me. If la la loving Eurovision was a crime, I'd certainly be a criminal!
