Interview with Nina (Serbia 2011): Nina represented Serbia at the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest with the song "Caroban" reaching Number 14. "Caroban" means "Magical"
which is also the title of Nina's English version. The song is rather
60s/70s retro style which is Nina's preferred musical style to sing in.
Find out more from Nina during the interview JP did with the
charming singer from Serbia. And our Chatman Klaus will be very happy
about this interview as "Caroban" was his favourite song int he competition this year.
Interview with Magdalena Tull (Poland 2011): The song is called "Jestem" and opened up the 56th Eurovision Song Contest in Duesseldorf Germany this year. The song is performed by Magdalena Tull and
was the very first song in Semi Final 1 unfortunately, only receiving
18 points ranking Poland at the anchor position Number 19 of Semi Final 1
meaning that the country was not qualified for the Grand Final.
However, listen to the interview Eric and JP did with Madgalena after
her first Press Conference at the Eurovision Song Contest 2011.
Interview with Zdob si Zdub (Moldova 2011 & 2005): Repeat
Offender at the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest which was the second time
Moldova's crazy group with an unpronouncable name returned to the
Eurovision Song Contest with the song "So Lucky". The song received 97 points ranking Moldova at Number 12 in the 56th Eurovision Song Contest. Zdob si Zdub already represented Moldova in their debut year at the Eurovision Song Contest in 2005 with the song "Bunica Bate Toba - Grandma beats the drums"
reaching Number 6 in Kiew. Eric and JP met the crazy coneheads in
Duesseldorf for an extensive interview after their Press Conference. Due to time constraints in this week's show this interview will air in next week's edition of Radio International. We do apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
