San Marino Valentina Moretta: Baku is very amazing!
Baku, May 14 (AZERTAC). “Baku and Azerbaijan are very amazing!” San Marino`s Valentina Monetta said at a press conference in Baku Crystal Hall.
Monetta noted she was very pleased to participate in Eurovision Song Contest.
She pointed out that there were created auspicious conditions for each participating country.
“We participate in several countries as part of the promo-tour. Modernity and antiquity is gathered in Baku`s view,” she also added.
The composer of the song, German Ralph Siegel, is a legend of the Eurovision Song Contest: "This is my 40th Eurovision Song Contest entry and the 20th international one". We confirm that his first composition to reach the contest was Bye Bye, I Love You which Ireen Sheer performed on behalf of Luxembourg in 1974. And it is the runner-up of the 1974 contest that Valentina would love to friend on Facebook, Gigliola Cinquetti from Italy.
About the change of title from Facebook to The Social Network Song: "It was not easy, we had to change after the decision of the EBU's reference group, and that involved record a new song, make a new edit of the video, new pressings of the promo material... and in such a short period of time", Mr. Siegel confessed.
