Ida Andia of Romania tried to alternate the songs – one who makes the Final, then one who remains in the semi-final. Today is the turn of Russia.
Sergey Lazarev is a great artist in Russia and well-known in several other countries. He has a lot of experience in the Eurovision Song Contest – he participated in 2016 with the song ”You’re the only one” – he finished in TOP 3, but it was my favourite. This time, Russia sends the song ”Scream”. Maybe it could be a SCREAM for victory; I listened the first time for just ten seconds and already love it. I think Russia could be in TOP region again. Sergey could prepare an amazing stage, like in Stockholm. He sings very well live and he could move on the stage. I think it will be something interesting.
We have now reached the top 10 of our ultinamate top 50 millennium Eurovision songs and it is Russia 2016 in position 10 – YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE by Sergey Lazarev.
Sergey Lazarev returns with an upbeat and catchy new song with an 80s style sound and promo video. The song is called Lucky Stranger and is set to be a big summer hit.
Sergey represented Russia at the 2016 Eurovision Song Contest with the popular You Are The Only One and finished in third place in the grand final.
You can see the official video for Lucky Stranger below.

I was interviewed by a Russian journalist from the TASS news agency,
Have not read it as yet as it in Russian, so has to get someone to translate, I did not want my photo to be taken as it is about Sergey and the award OGAE Rest of the world gave him for best song of 2016 by a male artist
