I think Slovenia may have more incredible musical talent per capita than any other country on the planet. The Eastern bloc definitely dominates the Eurovision contest and the top talent in Europe. And Slovenia is one of the powerhouses.
If you have any Slovenian favorites, please post them in the comments, preferably with a link to the song on YouTube. There is a compilation of all of their entries 1966 - 2007 available here.
Eurovision 2006 finalist - "Mr. Nobody" by Anžej Dežan
I thought this was the best song period in the 2006 contest. He manages in this song to carry you up, hold it, then carry you up higher. And keeps moving you up and up - just fantastic. And the video is superb - he is so good you can't take your eyes off of him - even with the gorgeous dancers he has.
Eurovision 2007 finalist - "Cvet z juga" by Alenka Gotar
One of the best in 2007 - she has an absolutely incredible voice and this song uses it. And uses it in a way that makes her voice integral to the song, not showing off.
Eurovision 2005 finalist - "Stop" by Omar Naber
Eurovision 2006 semi-finalist - "Mandoline" by Sasa Lendero
If she had faced anyone other than Anžej Dežan in the semi-final she would have been in the final. A very pretty melodious song beautifully sung.
