Μπεμπέκα...

έχει φάση όμως τη συμπαθώ!

Τα μόνα που κινούνται λίγο στο πρόσωπο της είναι τα βλέφαρα και τα χείλη.

You were originally offered the Eurovision mantle in 1983 but turned it down, why?

“Yeah, the only reason I turned it down was I
was too busy at the time, I was number one in America and number one in
the UK and it was manic, you know. I mean I was flying everywhere and
it just was the wrong time. Now is the perfect time because I have a new
album out and this song happened to be on the album and they picked
after listening to the album and thought this song’s perfect for
Eurovision, it wasn’t written for Eurovision. ”

Do you think you have a better chance of winning now than you did then?

“Erm, well I don’t know about back then but
I’ve got a good chance of winning because of the popularity in Europe,
you know. But listen, I’m realistic as well, I know it’s quite political
and I won’t be too hard on myself if I don’t win! But I’d love to win.”

Englebert Humperdinck came 25^th (second to last) last year despite his European following and lengthy career, what do you think went wrong for him?

“Oh, well he’s got a great voice but he
didn’t have a great song, I have got a good song. So, you know, as I
said before it’s not all about whether you’ve got a good song or not,
it’s sometimes political.”

You’ve spent a lot of time in Europe
during your career, do you think this will give you an edge over the
other competitors at Eurovision?

“Well I’m hoping so, but there is good
competition. I’ve heard quite a few of them and I particularly like the
Russian one, the Dutch one, the Irish one, you know, there’s some good
songs there.”


The Eurovision song, Believe in Me,
features on your new album Rocks and Honey, why was this song chosen for
your Eurovision entry?

“I didn’t even venture for the Eurovision,
what happened was my album got heard, you know like when you’ve got a
new album coming out you send it to the BBC and see if they like it and
you know, so they’ll play it in future. Somebody picked up on Believe in
Me and said that would be great to do in the Eurovision Song Contest.
So they asked me, and I thought well, fantastic! Yeah, a great
opportunity and it goes out to 120 million people. You know, the
Eurovision is a huge thing, everybody watches it even if they say they
don’t watch it, they’re bloody liars! Ha-ha!”

2 κοπέλες στα φωνητικά,2 κιθαρίστες (+φωνητικά) και έναν στα πλήκτρα,θα έχει μαζί της στη σκηνή η Bonnie.

She was asked after sending a demo of her new album Rocks And Honey to the BBC. ‘When we finished the new
album we sent a demo to the BBC to see if anybody was interested in playing it when it comes out in May and someone picked up on Believe In Me. They thought, “This would be a great track for Eurovision.” So they got in touch with me and asked if I’d be interested. It’s such a great opportunity.’
Her raw,catchy entry has already had nearly a million hits on YouTube so she’ll hopefully fare better than Engelbert Humperdinck,who only managed to scrape five points more than Norway at the bottom of the table with seven last year.
‘He’s got a great voice but I didn’t think the song was good enough,’ she says. ‘We’re in with a good chance but at the same time if I don’t win I’m not going to be pulling my hair out or anything because it’s the way Eurovision is.I think I’m just going to give it my best shot and enjoy it.
'Just think of all the publicity my album will have. It’s a brilliant opportunity because 120 million people watch that show.’

μονο για αυτό το λόγο αποφασίζουν να πάρουν μέρος στην eurovision οι εκπρόσωποι του Η.Β. , τα ίδια έλεγαν οι Blue και ο Engelbert. Ελπίζω να έχει καλύτερη τύχη η Bonnie

People love Eurovision. I know what you mean, but if I don’t win it’s not going to damage my reputation – people know me much too well already from my live shows. “They have seen me give so many powerful live performances. I am a live singer. And I believe in the song.”Bonnie – who’s entry is called ‘Believe In Me’ – hopes she will fare better than last year’s UK song, ‘Love Will Set You Free’ by Engelbert Humperdinck, because her track is perfectly suited to her. The
61-year-old star added: “I think he’s got a strong voice, but the song wasn’t strong enough for him. It wasn’t the right song. His hits in the past have been powerful, and I don’t think it had anything for him to get into. “Mine is a good song, and I’ve got six people on stage with me. I won’t be having any dancers, it will be straightforward performance, musicians and backing singers.”
