This is the eleventh year running that the Retro Bar has held the Eurovision Song Contest previews.  In previous years, winning the Douze Points vote was considered to be the kiss of death as the successful song would invariable fair poorly in the actual contest. However, last year the audience correctly predicated that Norway‘s Alexander Rybak with Fairytale would win the contest.  Below are the result of the previous winners:
 
2009     Norway - Alexander Rybak- Fairytale
2008     Iceland - Euroband -This is my life
2007     Switzerland - DJ Bobo - Vampires are alive
2006     Germany - Texas Lightening - No no never
2005     Hungary - Nox - Forogj Vilag
2004     Sweden - Lena Phillipsson - It Hurts
2003     Latvia - F.L.Y  - Hello from Mars
2002     Germany - Corrina May - Can't live without music
2001     Slovenia -Nusa Derender - Energy
2000     Netherlands - Linda Waggenmaaker -  No Goodbyes

Proceeds from all three Eurovision preview shows at Douze Points will go to charity."

 

Má þó ekki loka án þess að geta þess að þessi blessaði pubquis/spá hefur aðeins ræst einu sinni og það var í fyrra sem var nú kanski ekki erfitt spáár (10% hittni)
