"Ven a Bailar Conmigo" wins Norwegian Melody Grand Prix-finale

Senora Guri Schanke wins the Norwegian Melody Grand Prix, with a truly latin dance tune.



I rarely watch these shows, but happened to be home when this years finale was broadcast on Norway's State Channel. One tune immediately stood out as a solid latino salsa smash hit, that could tear up the dance floors all over Latin America and elsewhere, and provide a festive mood in any barrio, plus last - but certainly not least - leave Norway with a real winning chance in this year's Eurovision Grand Prix Song Contest Finale in Helsinki, Finland.

I must say, personally, having worked in the music industry for years, that I felt that if this song did not win our national final, there really was no hope for Norwegians ever becoming sophisticated. I mean, one of the acts it competed against is named Dusty Cowshit, ferr crying out loud... But thankfully, the blasting latino rhythm party tune won solidly.

So now all one can do is buy the CD-single, cross one's fingers, and wait for this unique chance to party like hell(-sinki)!
