I would love to see Michalis Hatzigiannis or Giorgos Papadopoulos :).

Re: CYPRUS 2014

In other news there's an article on Oikotimes begging for Cyprus to win and claiming that Cyprus has never benefitted from the diaspora/political vote and idk if you're feeling down maybe you need a laugh.

Re: CYPRUS 2014

Looking on Wikipedia it says the Cypriot delegation have yet to decide participation or not? i suppose they're waiting too see what Greece does before making a decision?

I don't think Greece has anything to do with this, I guess they are waiting to find a sponsor, or someone to cover the expenses, because the government is not willing to pay a cent for things like ESC, while so many people suffer from the economic crisis.

Oh i didn't think of that they would be looking for a sponsor, and its understandable that they don't want to pay out on something that is not certain. Anyways i still think they will withdraw.

escxtra reported on it. I wouldn't get too upset yet cause to be fair Cyprus has been doing this for the last three years so let's hope for the best.

I wouldn't mind if we take a break from ESC, because right now I don't see us sending anything special, so instead of sending something average just to be in the contest, it would be better if we stay out. :|

If only certain countries could learn from that mindset.

I'm not too concerned if Cyprus are out...Greece slightly more so, but at least we won't have to hear "And finally, 12 points go to...Greece!" one more time.

Well Greece won't be there so you won't be hearing that "12 points go to Greece" :p

It's been only a year and a half since you sent someone special!

Sad news, but not quite shocking at the end. May a year out turn out to be a wise decision at the end, I will miss Cyprus!
