Albania will make a choice!
 
Sunday, december 21
As usual, Albania already makes a choice for Eurovision in december. Their "Festival i kengės" is their national final. This time, however, it is different from other years. Only 20 songs participate, without semifinals. The songs have been presented last friday and saturday, so that the audience could get used to them.
One of the participants will be Luiz Ejlli. We saw him before, participating in the Eurovision Song Contest 2006 in Athens.
You can watch the Albanian final here.
