Re: Eurovision Song Contest "Nothing can stop me, stop me" goes Russia's song Believe, by Dima Bilan. IMO, absolutely nothing can or will stop him. Dima was the Russian entry in 2006 and came 2nd with a song that isn't as good as Believe (Never Let You Go). Russia also haven't won Eurovision before, and a Russian victory strikes me as something that would satisfy the political element that plays into it (Russia has lots of neighbours, post-soviet Russia, maiden victory a symbol of their new status etc. etc.) Admittedly I thought Ireland would win when I first had a look around, but I believe that it's Russia who will win. If you're looking for the gimmick act, then I actually prefer Latvia (Wolves of the Sea) over Ireland or Spain. Switzerland (Era Stupendo) is ok too, but it's basically in the same style as Russia's song, only in Italian, which basically rules out it's chances.
