Eurovision 2011 is coming up in a couple of months and clips from this year’s entries are beginning to appear. First up for us is 2009 Eurovision winner Norway, whose entry this year is Kenya-native Stella Mwangi with Haba Haba. Reminds me of Boney M and that’s always a good thing.

Lots of buzz on this oddly affecting tune from Britain’s Anita Blay, aka CocknBullKid. The single is already on sale in the UK and comes out here on March 11th. The UK iTunes page has some great sounding remixes.(Via – Pop In Stereo)

Lovely solo effort from former Motorcycle vocalist Jes Brieden, whom you may recall from their 2003 smash As The Rush Comes.(Via – Pop In Stereo)

Lovely retro late 90s-ish trance, reminds me of the fantastic album by Grace. Proceeds go to Australian flood disaster relief.
