Eurovision Song Contest 2009 champion: Alexander Rybak - Fairytale
The song was elected through the Norwegian festival Melodi Grand Prix 2009 on 21 February, winning in the biggest landslide of the contest's history, and competed against eighteen other Eurovision entries in the second semi-final on 14 May 2009, where it qualified for the final. The final took place on May 16, and the song won with 387 points – a new ESC record. It was Norway's third Eurovision Song Contest win.
The backing dancers for the Eurovision performance, Sigbjørn Rua, Torkjell Lunde Børsheim and Hallgrim Hansegård, are from the Norwegian dance company Frikar, performing the folk dance halling. The backing singers, Jorunn Hauge and Karianne Kjærnes, wore long pink dresses designed by Norwegian designer Leila Hafzi.
Norwegian media reported that "Fairytale" is about Rybak's ex-girlfriend Ingrid Berg Mehus whom he got to know through the Barratt Due Institute of Music in Oslo.

Multi-platinum pop-star MIKA returns with his brand new album 'The Origin of Love', released on Island Records on September 16th 2012.
Following up his multi-million selling worldwide smash 'The Boy Who Knew Too Much' (which debuted in every single i-Tunes top ten around the world), 'The Origin of Love' is Mika's third album and will be preceded by an anthemic brand new single 'Celebrate', an epic slice of cool modern pop destined to be a global summer soundtrack, written by Mika and Pharrell Williams, produced by Nick Littlemore from Empire of the Sun and also featuring Pharrell on vocals.
Completely self-created and self-imagined, 'The Origin of Love' has been a two-year DIY labour of love for Mika who has put together everything on the record himself, flying around the world under his own steam personally assembling an incredible roll call of collaborators - in addition to Nick Littlemore and Pharrell Williams Mika has also worked with William Orbit, Benny Benassi, FrYars, Greg Wells (Katy Perry, Adele), Klas Ahlund (Robyn's Body Talk) as well as working with some brand new unsigned musicians he found himself online.
"This single is what happens when you combine a 22 year old you find online, Fryars, with an extra-planetary Nick Littlemore and Pharrell Williams!" says Mika of 'Celebrate'. "Written by me, Pharrell and Fryars and produced by Nick, this kind of collaboration is only possible when everyone throws themselves into it wanting to have fun and without any ego. This collective and open attitude was at the heart of 'The Origin Of Love'. It's an album about crazy love songs and tolerance. It was recorded in Miami and London but mostly in Fryars' north London bedroom studio!"
A further Mika composition from the album writing sessions 'Gang Bang' features exclusively on Madonna's new 'MNDA' album, a track which she has widely praised as her favourite song on the record.
Mika spent most of 2010 and 2011 on a massive Global tour playing over hundreds of shows to sell-out audiences across Europe, Asia and North America. He returns with a brand new live show, performing at Heaven in London on 26th July.
Mika has now sold over 8 million records and Gold or Platinum awards in 32 countries worldwide across his previous two albums 'Life in Cartoon Motion' and 'The Boy Who Knew Too Much', winning Brit and MTV Awards in the process.

A Curious Thing is the second studio album from Scottish songstress Amy
MacDonald, following on from debut This Is The Life, and includes the single
"Don't Tell Me That It's Over". A helping hand is provided by long-term fan and
friend Paul Weller, whose studio and artistic expertise is showcased on "Love,
Love" and "This Pretty Face".

МакSим是目前俄罗斯最受欢迎的一位创作型歌手，在她的歌声中总是蕴涵着强烈地爆发力，她的歌曲从曲风到歌词都是节奏感鲜明，但她唱起抒情歌曲来同样也非常出色。
2006年的首张专辑Trudnyj Vozrast据说在俄罗斯光正版碟就卖出了150万张，创造了俄罗斯专辑销量记录。按照她自己的说法，她这一生中取得的成就是靠自己个人不懈地努力获得的。

When it comes to the Orlando-based Backstreet Boys, the world may be divided into two camps--detractors and hard-core fans--but no one can deny the fact that the guys produce perfectly polished pop that sells. The hits on this second European album (which includes five tracks not on the corresponding U.S. debut) speak for themselves: "Quit Playing Games (with My Heart)," "As Long as You Love Me," and "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)." If you're not one of the disciples, however, you may want to steer clear: lackluster attempts at R&B, saccharine ballads, and a murderous remake of PM Dawn's "Set Adrift on Memory Bliss" make this little more than a slick production. --Rebecca Wallwork
