NRK interviewing Alexander Rybak on how he got in touch with Norways most hard core dance company before he won the semifinals in Eurovision 2009 Norway with his tune "Fairytale". Subtitles in english
He's both. Born and raised by Russian parents, he is more Russian than Norwegian, but he is THE BEST choice Norway could ever make to sent to Moscow. Exceptional talent!
He moved to Norway when he was 4 or 5 years old. And he will turn 23 years in May, so he has been living in Norway for almost 20 years. He and his parents have norwegian passports. So he IS norwegian, just had his first few years in Belarus. They have never been back, so I believe he is much more norwegian than russian :)
Me Håkon from Ålesund wish Alexander Rybak good luck with my fingers cross for you on ESC in Moscow in May :) You will take the whole cake and Norway can have the ESC in 2010
♫ NO COMMENTS!!! 5+++++ ♫ Рыбак - "МОЛОДЕЦ"! Музыка и текст написаны Александром лично!!! "Fairytale" - воплащается в реальность! Продолжай с таким же интузиазмом! Есть замечательный мюзикл: "I'm signing in the rain" Gene Kelly - это именно твой стиль!!! Привет из Австрии! КС ♫ You are the best !!! ;-)
Oh, I see.. Well, he's really good. This is the first time I've really LIKED an eurovision song ;P.. I usually hate eurovision and thing it's a disgrace to the musicworld, but Alexander's song is actually VERY good =D!! I feel lucky we have him to represent our country this year! Go Norway!!!!
