Some highlights :
...
Q: You have already started an extensive promotional tour. Do you think in general that pre-contest promotion is important for the contest success?
A: I don’t think it is important or that it has influence in the final voting, but as my new album ‘Echoes’ has just been released, and that I was planning to promote it in numerous countries across Europe, I take this opportunity to perform ‘Echo (You and I)’ in every country that I’m invited to J
Q: What do you think is more important for Eurovision success: song, performer or the show?
A: First the song. Second the stage performance and last the artist as the artist is only the messenger at Eurovision. What’s important is the song and how you perform it on the Grand Final.
Q: Eurovision is sometimes labeled as political contest. Do you think of it as political event?
A: There may be some geopolitical aspects but I hope this is not influencing the final results. Again, what counts is the music and the rest should not interfere don’t you think?
