Then theres this other rumour where the sponsor of american idol, AT&T was behind the cheating. Representatives of AT&T helped fans of Kris Allen at the two Arkansas events by providing instructions on how to send 10 or more text messages at the press of a single button, known as power texts. Power texts have a greater effect on voting than do single text messages or calls to the show’s toll-free phone lines. So yea..this one is a bigger rumour which kinda makes sense. So theres a big possible tad its really true but it isnt confirmed or anything. But if it is, then adam probably would have won. But who knows...it could be true it could be fake.
Movin on, i aint gonna talk abt school today coz it sucks..anyway..i would like to share on something today. Does any1 ever wonder where did Celine Dion or Abba come from?
Well Celine Dion and Abba didnt get famous just like tad. They won a competition called Eurovision. Tads how they got their fame. So lemme tell ya'll about this Eurovision competition.
Well, Eurovision is an annual music competition held among active member countries of the European Broadcasting Union. Each member country submits a song to be performed on live television and then casts votes for the other countries' songs to determine the most popular song in the competition. The songs HAVE to be New and not on the charts. In other words, its a Song Contest, and not a singing contest. And its called Eurovision because every or almost every country in the continent of Europe is joining every year. Now they have like 42 countries in europe participating. But it is like the biggest and most popular (although not famous in asia) and longest lasting competition in the world. It started since 1956 every year until this year 2009. So its basically like american idol but its about the song and not much of the singer. And the rules is tad each country cant vote for their own country but for any other country.
So tads basically what it is and every year the competition is held in the country the present winner is from. So lets say Canada won this year, then next year's eurovision, canada would be the host. So its something like olympics too. Big huh..well tads how Celine Dion and Abba got famous. Celine Dion won in 1988 i think with some italian song.
So anyway, I watched this year's winner and he's representing Norway. His name is Alexander Rybak and he's a singer,composer and a norwegian violinist and he is fabulous on the violin!
This song he wrote that her performed on Eurovision is really nice and won over 42 countries in the continent. Its really catchy too and he wrote it and played the violin in it while singing and he has captured my love for violin now! Its so nice. His mom is a proffesional pianist and his dad is a fmous violinist too. He joined this Norwegian idol too but only reached the semifinals. But anyway..heres some vids of him performing in Eurovision 2009 and Eurovision Norway(which he won before entering the Main Eurovision)

Its like modern mix with a folk-country kinda swagger. haha..most ppl dont like folk songs but he makes it nice! Well at least for me. Oh and don't be surprised if u cant rocognize some words he's singing.
'Fairytale' - Eurovision Norway
2009 Eurovision Song Competition
And this is him performing on violin only a soundtrack to a korean show called Secret Garden and its really a sad song.
And this is him flawlessly STRUMMING his violin of a short verion of I'm Yours by Jason Mraz. Who knew i violin can sound like a ukulele.
But since he's like norwegian so u wont understand what they're talkin abt in the start. So heres the dialog.

Alexander: Yeah, but its over now ;p
