5 “Best” Eurovision Song Videos of 2011

eurovision song contest 2011

For the Eurovision Song contest 2011 we thought we should compile a list of our favourite music videos for the competition. To be honest some are quite good, so here’s our pick of the bunch.

5. Nina – Magical (Serbia)

Danica "Nina" Radojčić was born in 1989 and is professionally known by her mononym “Nina,” clever! She graduated from high school as a “valedictorian” (us neither?) and is now studying Faculty of Pharmacy. Kristina Kovac actually composed and originally sang the song, but after seeing Nina on YouTube with her specific interpretation, voice quality, young energy and charm, Kristina thought she would be the best “solution” for the song. To be fair it’s a good song and alright video…

4. Ell & Nikki – Running Scared (Azerbaijan)

Nikki first dreamt of representing Azerbaijan in the Eurovision Song Contest back in 2000 when she saw Russian singer Alsu finish second, since then she’s moved to London and focused on achieving that goal. I think they must have found Eldar Gasimov working as an Enrique Iglesias wax work while the original was being repaired and thought he might win some grandma votes. Either way something worked as they won the competition.

3. Glen Vella – One Life (Malta)

27 year old Glen Vella, born on 14th May 1983, represented Malta at the Eurovision Song Contest 2011 with 'One Life', penned by Fleur Balzan and composed by Paul Giordimaina. This video is pure and unadulterated eurovision song contest cream layered on thick rich Maltese cheese, see what you think?

2. Dana International – Ding Dong (Israel)

Sinead O'Connor said, "She inspires me and gives me courage." Jean Paul Gaultier called her "my muse" and in 1998, Time Magazine chose her as one of the important people in the world! Dana International's story is not only the story of a successful singer; it is a rare and inspiring story about courage and the victory of the human spirit. (You know she was a man right?) This is her own composition and not a laughing matter. “Ding Ding say no more!”

1. Jedward – Lipstick (Ireland)

Irelands Eurovision song video for 2011 is Xfactor’s very own Jedward. Don’t mess with these 2 they have Irelands fastest selling record of 2010 and had to increase their live show dates from 28 to 75 in order to fullfil their fans satisfaction. Say what you want about Jedward…they don’t care!
