Et dans un monde de plus en plus globalisé, est-ce que l’idée même de culture nationale fait encore sens ? Est-ce que la voix et les mots peuvent-être considérés comme un simple matériau ? Est-ce que la danse où les arts plastiques, parce qu’ils font fi de la parole, ne disent rien des pays dont sont originaires leurs artistes ? Mais surtout, est-ce que l’eurovision est un outil efficace de diffusion ou de prosélytisme culturel et linguistique ? Est-ce qu’écouter Wer liebe lebt permet de découvrir la culture allemande ? Sans que l’un n’empêche l’autre, il est en tout cas plus important de voir les pièces de Pollesch, de lire Goethe ou de visiter Berlin.

Fifty-four years after Germany played host to the second ever Eurovision Song Contest, the musical jamboree comes to Düsseldorf this May. It’s a very different world since ARD staged the show in 1957 with just 10 nations in a small TV studio in Frankfurt. This year, a record 43 countries will take part in the three shows, with a potential audience of 35,000 live in the Esprit Arena. All 10 nations from 1957 will be on show in Germany, but only two of their languages survive. The creaky phone lines that provided the results from the 100 judges have been superseded by state of the art, pan-continental technology that involves all the 125 million viewers watching at home. It’s a very different show indeed. Back in 1957, Lys Assia attempted to defend her Eurovision crown and this year Germany’s Lena will become the third artist taking a crack at the same challenge.

    2016 Peace Poems Written by the 8th grade students of the Marblehead Community Charter Public School and Marblehead Veterans Middle School Ode to those… By Ryan Grohe Ode to those who ride behind the thunder, But are much more like the swift, cleansing rains. Ode to those who help those torn asunder, To those who help us break our iron chains. Ode to those who help, yet never hurt another, To those who remove the signs of scarlet ocean. Ode to those who find every man their brother, And those who right that violent, tumbling motion. Ode to those who climb the highest mountain, And help us conquer our greatest fears. Ode to those who bring youth, without the fountain, Whose advice will help us for many, many years. Ode to those who ride behind the thunder But are much more like the rain.

    Published in Tbilisi 24 Saati May 19, 2009 Fairytale: We Don’t Wanna Put-In David J. Smith* Fairytale is the sprightly little ditty that won the 2009 Eurovision Song Contest for Norwegian Alexander Rybak last Saturday in Moscow. We Don’t Wanna Put-In is a song by Stefane and 3G, the Georgian entry nixed by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) to shield the apparently very thin skin of Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin from the possibility of a burn from the strobe lights of Olympiyski Arena. Fairytale might also have described the saga of a Norwegian fiddler, three pretty Georgian girls and a guy with funny hair—except it was real-life farce. Rybak and Fairytale triumphed at the 54th Eurovision Song Contest. The series began on May 24, 1956, when singers from 14 countries met in Lugano, Switzerland to launch a new idea on the nascent Eurovision Network. Lys Assia of Switzerland won with a song called Das Alte Karussell. Since then, top picks have included ABBA’s Waterloo and Brotherhood of Man’s Save all Your Kisses for Me. Some winners were seldom heard after their one glorious evening on Eurovision’s stage. And the contest overlooked songs destined for world fame such as Domenico Modugno’s Volare—presented at the 1958 Hilversum contest as Nel Blu Dipinto di Blu—and Betty Curtis’s Al di Lá. Nonetheless, it was all good fun. Over 53 years, more than 1,000 songs entertained Eurovision audiences. In 2008, the television audience was about 100 million; nearly 9 million votes were cast by telephone or text message.
