Greece
Dennis Reviews Anita’s 21st Century Favourite
Koza Mostra feat. Agathonas Iakovidis – Alcohol Is Free | 6th place, 152 points (Final)
OPA! This song is just such great fun. Pure entertainment. I can’t imagine anyone keeping their legs still, as they watch this song. The contrast between the old singer and the young punks around him, could have made things awkward. But the Greek delegation made this weakness a strength, by using this in our stage directing in a smart way. Awesome entry still, 7 years later.
Brandon Reviews Joshua’s 21st Century Favourite
Antique – (I Would) Die For You | 3rd place, 147 points (Final)
Another song Josh and I agree with! Far prefer this entry by Helena than her Eurovision-winning song. So iconic and SUCH a better winner than the one that did. Greece got her back though and she got her redemption. Ages really well this song and Helena looks so sweet on-stage.
