My Prediction - This song doesnt seem to suit Eurovision very well and I don't personally think that it will qualify. But we shall have to wait and see!!

Greece

Greece
Artist - Loukas Giorkas feat. Stereo Mike
Song - Watch My Dance
Draw - Semi-Final 1, Place 19

Cypriot born, Loukas Giorkas, will be representing Greece this year along with Mihalis Exarhos, commonly known as Stereo Mike.


Loukas, born in October 1986, was the winner of the first series of the Greek, X Factor. His first album, entitled "Mazi", was released in September 2009, and obtained Gold Status within Greece. Loukas is also at the University of Patras, studying Biology.


Mihalis, born in 1978, is a popular hip-hop artist who rose to fame between 2003 and 2005.

Loukas Giorkas and Stereo Mike won the Greek Selection on the 2nd March 2011.


The Greek song this year is "Watch My Dance", written by Giannis Christodoulopoulos & Eleana Vrahali. It is a charming mix of hip hop and contemporary laïkó.


Current Betting Odds (William Hill) - 100/1
My Prediction - I can understand the popularity of this song, yet its a slightly disappointing entry from the Greeks. This could be the first year that they don't get into the top ten......

καλή τύχη!
