Hey!
I’m going to try to keep up with the news as it comes in tonight. Usually with blogs, you read from the bottom up, but I’m going to do it backward. I’m starting with the question: “Who Is The Next Winner?” as posed by Eurovision, and will end with Il Volo’s final standing…believing with my heart that I already know what it will be. 😀
Have fun!
