gianluca bezzina eurovision 2013

Gianluca Bezzina, Malta’s singing Doctor, ended up at a prestigious 8th place in this year’s Eurovision song contest. This was one of Malta’s best results.

Denmark with Only Teardrops sung by Emmelie de Forest won this year’s festival… I didn’t like their song. I thought some others were much better, such as Norway and Ukraine.
