My story

Bálint M

Szia!
I'm Bálint from Hungary.
I'm rather a new fan of ESC as unfortunately my country Hungary didn't take part in ESC many times. I watched ESC in 2005 for the first time.

My opinion on my country's entries:
1994: Friderika - Kinek mondjam el vétkeimet: Wonderful debut. Not a winner, but deserved the 4th place!
1995: Csaba Szigeti - Új név egy régi ház falán: Horrible. Shame. I must defend my country: it was internally selected...
1997: VIP - Miért kell, hogy elmenj?: A good boyband. Very nice song, but not outstanding.
1998: Charlie - A holnap már nem lesz szomorú: Just like '95, selected internally... Better than that but still bad.
I'm sorry that we left the contest after this.
2005: NOX - Forogj világ: The only decent song in our horrible NF. Catchy song, good coreography, unfortunately it was doomed by the running order.
2007: Magdi Rúzsa - Unsubstantial blues: I love Magdi, I was so happy when she was selected: I became a real ESC fan thanks to her. Absolutely fanatastic singer, but she should've picked a song more suitable for ESC.
2008: Csézy - Candlelight: A very nice song, and a lovely singer, but nothing outstanding.
