Moscow hosted this year’s 54th Eurovision song contest in true glitzy style. Russia, eager to showcase itself, was reported to have spent 42 million dollars on the five-day event, making it the most expensive competition in the Eurovision’s history.
So with the magical backdrops, perhaps it was fitting that a song called fairytale should win. It was sung by Norwegian Alexander Rybak from Oslo and was a mix of folksy fiddle 1 and modern ballad 2, the type of music the contest is best known for.
But it obviously hit a nerve with judges because it extracted the most points by a song ever, a record 387.
23-year-old Alexander Rybak jubilant at the news conference following his win thought he knew why it was so successful.
In Russia, we are like the nostalgia 3 and melancholy 4 while in Norway we are the happiest people in the world. And the mix of those two things was a success obviously.
Iceland put its banking 5 problems behind it by coming second with a therapeutically 6 soothing 7 number.
While third-placed Azerbaijan woke judges up with some colorful drama.
But it was Norway’s night with fans overwhelmed by the success of their team.
We do win, like a fairytale. Oh my God this is the biggest thing.
It’s marvelous, wonderful, fabulous 8.
And a wonderful show, this must be the best show ever.
Celebrations are expected to continue in Norway with Oslo now the destination for the 55th Song contest next year.
