A Greek website estimates that Norway could win the ESC for a second time in a row with Didrik. It mentions A. Rybak too, that's why I am putting it here.

Since I am not fond of Didrik, I'll leave the translation to Google, sorry :D

«Norway goes for a second victory in Eurovision 2010?»

Notice the Greek transliteration of Didrik's name, when Google reverses it from the Greek back to the Latin alphabet: «Ntintrich Solitanken»!!!

I actually think Didrik can make it :) It`s a wonderful song.

I am actually SURE Didrik can make it. It's a wonderful song, he has a good voice and he seems to be a nice guy. He's also good looking. Good combination.

I think he appeals to many different people, even many children like him, strange enough.

Yannis, you must listen to it many times, i's not the type that gets on the brain the first time you here it.

It's an article written from the Armenian perspective and as such it focuses on Armenian issues, but it calls Alex a «talented fiddler».

«Three Young Norwegian-Armenians to Perform on Stage for ‘Rybak Effect’»
By Weekly Staff • on February 10, 2010

From: http://www.armenianweekly.com/2010/02/10/three-young-norwegian-armenians-to-perform-on-stage-for-‘rybak-effect’/

OSLO, Norway (A.W.)–During these cold and dark months of winter in Norway, there is only warmth and light radiating from the faces of three Armenian-Norwegian youth in the southern city of Skien.

Aleksander Varadian Johnsen, 13, Harout Yacoubian 12, and sister Maria, 9, recently met at no better place than where they enjoy being the most—on stage. Although their parents have known each other for years, the Yacoubian children didn’t know Varadian Johnsen well, as they live in separate towns.

All three are representing their local “school of arts” in two pre-events leading to round four of Norway’s National Melody Grand Prix, being held in Skien. Norway, the winner of last year’s Euovision (European) Song Contest, is gearing up once again to choose who will represent the country in this year’s competition, to be held in Oslo in May. Armenia, one of 30 countries to compete in this year’s competition, placed 10th in 2009.

In tribute to Norway’s victory last year, won by Alexander Rybak, a talented vocalist and fiddler, the local school of arts has arranged a show called the “Rybak Effect.” Many youth were inspired by Rybak and have since joined the already popular schools of arts throughout Norway. Aleksander Varadian Johnsen, a prominent theatre student, has been asked to host the evening, which includes interviewing Alexander Rybak. Harout Yacoubian, a talented violinist, and his sister Maria will perform on stage. When both parents realized this coincidence, Harout’s father exclaimed, “Imagine that, three Armenians on stage at the same time in this little country of Norway!”

In addition to this performance, perhaps the more exciting event is what will happen the day of the show: All three have been asked to participate in a film clip that will appear on national television (NRK) on the evening of the competition. Ian Wright, known worldwide for his travel documentaries “Globetrekkers” (on the Travel Channel), is in Norway filming. He has filmed in over 100 countries including Armenia. Now he is travelling to the five locations of the Melody Grand Prix competition trying to find out the secret behind Norway’s success. In the clip, Varadian Johnsen and Wright discuss the enormous national interest in music, while roaming a snow-covered street in town. Harout and Maria Yacoubian play their violins in the background. Both Varadian Johnsen and Harout Yacoubian will also appear on NRK’s morning news program, as part of the media coverage of Melody Grand Prix in Skien.

Varadian Johnsen, the son of David and Christine (Varadian) Johnsen, has been a theatre student for six years. He immediately took to the stage and is considered a talented young man destined for a future in the arts. He has been in many local theatre productions, including playing the role of Oliver in “Oliver Twist” with a professional adult theatre troupe that toured several cities. In addition to his theatrical talents, he is a singer and songwriter, and has won several local competitions. His mother is a former resident of the Providence, R.I. community and was actively involved for many years in the Armenian Youth Federation (AYF).

Harout and Maria Yacoubian are the children of Dr. Paul and Trude Yacoubian. Harout attends the school of arts in Porsgrunn. He has performed in numerous concerts where he has also played solo. His talent has caught the eye of local newspapers and he, too, is a rising young star. Undoubtedly his passion and interest in violin has rubbed off on his younger sister, Maria, who is following in his footsteps. Father, Paul (Boghos), is from Aleppo, Syria, and was an active member of the ARF and ARS there.

Alexander on TV-interview in ICELAND MGP...did you see it?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqgOelYccsw

He says: Good evening Reykjavik..( in Iceland pronounciation )

They speak norwegian/icelandish and he answers in norwegian, and they translate to icelandish.

They ask him to tell about his year and he says: To summarize it: Before the ESC, i had bad concience, if I played too much TV.-games. Now, I have bad concience, if I play too little TV- games. There is simply a lack of free time.
But he is very happy about the way, the year has been.
They ask, if he would do it all over again and he says, knowing what he knows now, he would gladly do it all over again.
The ask if he remembers the points, Iceland gave him at last ESC.
He answers, he remembers especially well, the 12 points, he got from Iceland and he hopes, they enjoyed the 12 points from Norway to them, just as much..
And thats it..

And a short interview-clip from Birsta, Sweden. He visited in October, I think. He says, he is happy about the success and he knew, Fairytale would appeal to children and young people. But he learned that adults like him too, and that is because they have their inner child intact.

Rybak mentioned in some Slovak articles (mostly by young nice girls :-DDD)
Google translation would be weird, so I made translation of "relevant" parts of the articles

About amount of violins in songs this year:
http://www.aktuality.sk/clanok/156575/eurosong-2010-rybakove-husle-ovladli-slovensko/

Eurosong 2010: Rybak´s violin dominated in Slovakia
The winner of last year Eurosong become absolutely sovereign, and with huge margins a young violinist Alexander Rybak. It is certain that a large percentage of the credit in his fairytale victory had his violin, to which his victory song Fairytale perfectly suited to.
Well, and this year seems just lucky Rybaks violin is inspired hundreds of contestants in the current year Eurosongu. At least in Slovakia string mania fully prevailed. Almost every from artists hoped, that the romantic tones of string instruments helped him to bring the final in Oslo to him.


From the interview with Kristina, the media-favourite of this year:
http://www.aktuality.sk/clanok/156206/eurosong-2010-kristina-by-chcela-byt-reprezentantkou-slovenska/

Eurosong 2010: Kristina would like to represent Slovakia
The fifth quarterfinal round of the Slovak national Eurovision Song Contest 2010 on Friday, had a clear favorite. Actually the female-favorit. The song Horehronie sung by the singer Kristina happily rotates in radios and Slovaks have got it properly under the skin. She received respectable 36.7% of all SMS votes. 22-year old singer gave was interviewed right after the ceremony and congratulations from her wide team that accompanied her backstage.

You are close to participation in the finals in Oslo. What you know about Norway?
Hm ..from Norway I like Alexander Rybak very much. I was very happy when he won the Eurovision


From the online-chat with another female singer, winner of one of quarter-finals:
BRATISLAVA - The young singer Sona Šimorová aka Mista was born on January 19, 1987 in Bratislava. She is married. Her husband is a music producer Stano Simor.
She plays the violin and piano from an early age. She graduated on the Bratislava Conservatory, where along with fellow students established the band and started to work as an the author. Since 2006, she studies at Academy of Performing Arts.
In 2008 she performed as a guest vocalist on Elan Tour. Concert in the New York Carnegie Hall was a memorable experience for her, where she had the opportunity to play and sing together with Elan. (Slovak famous music-band)
She recorded two singles. Her first solo song is Emotions on which she participated as the author of music and lyrics too. This song sings in the Eurovision Song Contest.
