In thinking mode...

Did I tell you I will NEVER find a proper blog title? I've been sitting one hour every day (literally) thinking about it and I can't find anything! All I know is that I want a one-word title but that word would be a combo of two words which when combined will make sense but you won't find the "new" word in a dictionary! Example: scandipop. You can't find it in a dictionary but you know what we're talking about: scandinavian pop! It has to be unique!

I was supposed to fix all that during summer but I couldn't sit and work on the blog. I was home!

There are so many things I want to do with my blog and it looks like they won't be done soon. At least I made a progress on paper. I've noted so many things I want to do. New pages, features, the layout... I really need a new template. I have some ideas in mind. Actually many ideas and I have to pick one or at least a couple of them combined. Otherwise it will look like a mess. But I'm thinking of making it myself which means I need to study a lot about C.S.S., lots of PhotoShop tutorials and stuff like that. Summer was the best period to do that since I had no classes and stuff but now... Now it looks like we'll spend the next ESC season with this layout.

But the work can't begin if I don't find a title! Unfortunately I can't change the blog address. Actually I can but when someone will try to access alca-gr.blogspot.com they will get a message of the page not existing any more and not the new address which means I will lose lots of you guys. But as I said I need a title so I can find the right "theme" for the new layout/template, favicon and all that. A new blog identity I could say.

I just hope the thing they say about Geminis is not true. But I think it is. We start something and we never finish it. I've done this so many times but I really wanna do this! :/

ESC 2013 - Switzerland: More candidates

There are 5 more songs uploaded here. I won't comment all of them coz I don't like any of them. Actually I like only one. And so far it's my winner but it won't do well in ESC coz it's really really really really "euphoric". ;) I'm talking about ILARY's "Voglia Di Vivere". I like it a lot but seriously don't they get it? It's happening every year! We have a winner and the next year there are copies popping up in almost every NF! The same recipe never works two years in a row! Mostly because the copy is worse than the original but also because Europe won't vote for the "same" winner twice. Anyway, we still have a long way to go!

Melodifestivalen 2013 - The dates!

Seriously how unlucky am I? First, the ESC 2013 will be held in Malmö and not Stockholm where I could go! Now the cities of Melodifestivalen 2013 are announced and there's no Linköping in the list, once again! I mean it's my second year in Lkpg and still no mello here!

Anyway, here's the list.

  • Semi-final 1: February 2nd, Karlskrona, Telenor Arena
  • Semi-final 2: February 9th, Gothenburg, Scandinavium
  • Semi-final 3: February 16th, Skellefteå, Skellefteå Kraft Arena
  • Semi-final 4: February 23rd, Malmö, Malmö Arena
  • Andra chansen: March 2nd, Karlstad, Löfbergs Lila Arena
  • Final: March 9th, Stockholm, Friends Arena 
So it looks like I'm only going to Stockholm for the final. Malmö and ESC 2013 are 99,9% off my table.

ESC 2013 - Switzerland: The two first candidates

And it's official! The 2013 NF season kicked off today! SF posted the two first candidates for next year's ESC! Now I don't like John Hänni's song. I find it bland and boring. I like United Passion feat. Lyane Leigh's song but I wish there was no rap part. It ruins it! 

Really not much more to say about this but it's a start for next year's contest! I don't know if I'll be able to post all the news about the Swiss NF but I'll try!
