Unzipped Gay Armenia says that Sirusho, the country's entry in this week's Eurovision Song Contest, is the best yet and stands a good chance of winning the international song contest. The blog also says that if she does, next year's Eurovision would be held in Yerevan and attract the attention of LGBT communities in Europe.
Flying Carpets and Broken Pipelines says that she woke up to the news of the detention of two youth activists in Baku, Azerbaijan, this morning despite eye witness accounts that it was they who were the the victims of an assault. The blog says that it will keep its readers updated on their situation.

Which song did you like the best? I liked Armenia and
Greece.
Kate, I’m afraid I’m only following blogger reaction to the contest as it pertains to the South Caucasus and not the actual competition itself.
Sirusho has to do it better … unfortunately, i had the feeling as if Sirusho had a cold or the night before too much party (!!!) .. her voice was in some way “disguise” and not so good!
I congratulate Sirusho, reaching finals is a great achievement, but i have one comment to make, she was high pitched, probably she was nervous and stressed.
If she overcomes this problem i am sure she will be in the top Three.
No matter what result she achieves we are proud of her.
Good luck to You and God be with you.
Hey tou guys are correct she was very nervous i would to so we just have to wish her good luck we love youand believe in you you ae the best just don’t be nervooous SIrusho jan
