UPDATE: For the latest information and videoclips on Malta Song for Europe / Eurovision 2007, go

A controversy between Grace borg and both current Maltasong chairman + Minister Francis Zammit Dimech has cropped up as shown on tonight's Bondiplus.
For some information on the subject view:

However one should note that PBS’ programme Bondiplus showed a clip tonight how the Minister tried to talk to Maltese singer Keith Camilleri (who was representing Switzerland), and was actually stopped from doing this by Grace Borg herself! On this programme, Grace Borg was heard alleging that Maltasong chairman Robert Abela was drunk in the green room. Fabrizio’s Agent confirmed on the programme that no such thing happened.
On a less serious note everyone seems to be looking for a parody videoclip by Joe Demicoli ‘I DO’… Hmm I didn’t see this myself but let’s see.. found it:
EARLIER UPDATE:
Malta only got ONE POINT in last night’s Eurovision 2006. A terrible result – we ended up last. Fabrizio did his best I’m sure.
EARLIER UPDATE:
GOOD LUCK FABRIZIO!!!
Tonight Fabrizio Faniello will be representing Malta in Eurovision 2006. I think he will do well.
They changed the dance routine and removed the Tomb of the Cybermen bit..

As usual everybody votes for their neighbours. I think we should stop taking part in Eurovision. It’s a joke.
PREVIOUS UPDATES:

Earlier story:
Fabrizio Faniello came first in yesterday’s Go Mobile Malta Song for Europe 2006 with 7729 votes. Olivia Lewis came second with 7623 votes and Trilogy were third with 4954 votes. There was no jury and all votes were decided by televoting.
Last year, Chiara came first with her song ‘Angel’. At Eurovision last year, some Brits compared her jokingly to a Dr Who alien (slitheen). My guess is this year there will be a comment about other Dr Who aliens, the cybermen, since the dancers do a ‘Tomb of the Cybermen’-like entrance!
Fabrizio already represented Malta in Eurovision with his song “Another Summer Night” (which like ‘I Do’ can heard on Maltese Music Internet radio) back in 2001. This year he will be going to the Eurovision Song Contest 2006 and representing Malta with his song “I Do”.
Congratulations to Fabrizio! Good luck for ESC2006!
