Counted days are left before the Eurovision 2008 Song Contest. On May
20 Sirusho will perform at the first semifinal. Before that the singer
is traveling and presenting her song in different countries of the
world.
The song Sirusho will present at the Contest does not leave the leading
positions in many pre-charts and predictions. Thus, `Qele-Qele' is
leading with 23% of the votes in the poll conducted at
www.eurovision2008.org. Georgia is the second with 17% of the votes,
Turkey is the third with 12%.
Armenia is the sole leader in another web poll conducted at
www.escchart.net. 30% of the participants voted for Sirusho's
`Qele-Qele.' Ukraine comes second with 30.1%, Sweden is the third with
28.6%.
Bookmakers are making a different prediction. Betting odds vary with
different bookmaking offices, but overall they predict victory for
Russia. According to forecasts, Serbia will come second, Armenia will
be the third. However, the experience of the past years has shown that
surprises are not excluded at the Eurovision.
On these days the Armenian delegation is traveling within the framework
of the promo-tour to present `the sunlight taken from the Armenian
land' to the audience in different countries.'
Armenia also welcomes participants of the Eurovision 2008 from other
countries. On May 5 Diana Gurtskaya - the Georgian entrant at the
Eurovision - visited Armenia. She told reporters that participation is
already a victory for her, adding that she and Sirusho will do their
best to present their countries with dignity.
After long silence the head of the Armenian delegation Dana
Mnatsakanyan finally revealed some details of the show that has been
staged by Russian choreographer Sergey Mandrik. `This year the song is
again about love, and there is a staging, which, I think, is very
interesting.'
