Oslo, Norway May 2010
It’s All About You!
The USA does not qualify to take part in the Eurovision Song Contest but Americans can perform with European contestants and that is exactly what I will be doing at the end of May.
I will accompany the contestant representing Albania, Juliana Pasha, along with two other American singers, Desirée Kedjour and Joy Garrison. “Nuk mundem pa ty”, its original title, was written by Ardit Gjebrea and Pirro Çako The official song presentation ‘It’s All About You’ can be viewed on Youtube but if you are in any of the countries where the Eurovision Song Contest is broadcast, please tune in and show your support by casting your vote.
While in Oslo…
As a jazz singer, I look forward to sitting in at the local jazz clubs while in Norway. I plan to also sample as much authentic Norwegian food as I can find. Then, I will write about all I discover in Oslo, so stay tuned!

My favorite one is Georgia this year!
She’s got a great voice and that black dress in the video is gorgeous, but the song is a bit Celine Dion-ish from back in the 90s…but that’s just my opinion. This may sound completely biased, but I love Albania’s song this year, aside from that, I also think Isreal’s song is very moving. May the best song win!
