In this week's magazine Down Town in Greece, our chief editor gave
an interview concerning Eurovision (of course). Presenting Mr. Fotis
Konstantopoulos as the "Greek Eurostar". Also, the magazine hosts
another Eurovision star, Sietse Bakker from esctoday.com presented as
"the Eurovision expert".
Mr. Konstantopoulos is presented not only because he's involved with
oikotimes but also as the director of the ERT Eurovision Channel.
Yiannis Poulopoulos (the journalist) asks, "We read on oikotimes that
the song "Everything" is leading at the predictions and polls. You
believe that those predictions can become true?" and the answer given
is that everything is floating. In the past we saw favorites not
winning and outsiders getting the first place. Mr. Konstantopoulos
believes that the songs are close to win, except "Everything" are the
Romanian and the Swedish. Also he personally believes that Russia is
a favorite as well as Armenia, Turkey Estonia and Denmark.
Also, there was also an interview of Sietse Bakker at the same copy
of the Down Town magazine. For the first time we have a clear answer
of what Mr. Bakker along with Mr. Konstantopoulos vote at the Greek
pre selection this year. Of course their vote was for "Everything".
He personally believes that last year Greece was leading the polls
and for sure it was the winner, but this year things are different.
This happens because there are more good songs competing. Concerning
the final result, Sietse Bakker believes that Swden, Greece, Romania,
United Kingdom and Finland are the top 5 countries for the grand
prize. And from the semifinal, Armenia, Albania, Belgium, Fyrom,
Turkey, Finland, Netherlands, Sweden, Bosnia and Herzegovina and
Iceland will proceed to the final.
