Romania Entry: Elena - The Balkan Girls (Promotional Video)

By Critic Jonni / June 22, 2017

The Balkan Girls - Elena | It's Thursday Revisit, so of course, I was going to do this song by Elena, since she was in the Eurovision Song Contest after all. I also believe I've seen this music video on the music channels years ago, and the fact that it charted in the UK shows how much this[...]

Romania Entry: Ilinca Featuring Alex Florea - Yodel It!

Yodel It! (feat. Alex Florea) - Ilinca | Now, this was one of my top favourite songs from the Eurovision Song Contest 2017.

Yet, as a collaborative effort, they work well together, and we can only hope that they continue to come together on some songs in the future. This act[...]

Romania Entry: Mandinga - Zaleilah

By Critic Jonni / May 31, 2012

Mandinga represented Romania in Baku, Azerbaijan in 2012. The band has been around since 2002 but in 2006 they split and reformed with a new front singer. Unfortunately there is a rule with Eurovision saying that only 6 people can be on stage during an act's performance, so someone had to stay backstage. The 7 band members are: Elena Ionescu, Alex, Chupi,[...]
