Betting odds and an appearance by Conchita Wurst

For the Austrian Song Contest participants DJ LUM!X feat. Pia Maria is going to be tight in the first semi-final in Turin today — at least if you trust the bookmakers: With their song “Halo”, the red-white-red party makers are in thankless 11th place in a comparison of eleven betting shops — but only ten final tickets be distributed.

Also there is – of course not in competition – Song Contest 2014 winner Conchita Wurst. Just last Friday Tom Neuwirth released his pop song “Car”.

His crazy 1980s music video Bildrausch has already caused a sensation on the internet, and he’s taking it with him to the Eurovision Song Contest in Turin. There he will perform his current songs at a concert in front of up to 20,000 live viewers.

Exclusive behind-the-scenes videos from his upcoming trip to Italy have already been announced for his recently launched proprietary video-on-demand platform WURSTTV.com. There Neuwirth discusses and criticizes in “Ears closed, eyes open! ESC” includes all 40 contributions to this year’s song contest and already selects its own winners.
