EuroVisionary.com - Everything you need to know about the Eurovision Song Contest - We welcome the 2009 Contest in Moscow

It has finally come to pass, 14 years after their first entry Russia has reigned victorious over the Eurovision Song Contest.  Dima tried back in 2006 and finished second to Lordi but he wasn't dissuaded and came back this year and finished second to no one.

Hello and welcome in to EuroVisionary's live coverage of what looks set to be one of the closet fought finals in may years.  We'll be covering all tonight's proceedings with a blow by blow account.  I think it's safe to say that we're in for an exciting evening.

This year's Eurovision Song Contest will be a different kind of show for the San Marinese people.  They will participate for the very first time in Belgrade and it will definitely be a new adventure for them. 

While a graphic of the finalised stage design for the 2008 contest had been online for a few weeks now no such video was available. A short 25 second graphic clip of the stage shows how it may look come May.

While on Saturday many Serbs were still majorly peeved about their loss of Kosovo, Marija Šerifović was in Ireland to judge the songs and singers for the Irish TV viewing public.  She took some time to talk to us.
