Of the 600 entries received this year, esctoday.com has learnt that 34 % came from Norwegian composers, while the rest came from Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Australia, Israel, UK, Germany, Malta, Poland, Greenland, Iceland, Spain, Ireland etc...
Stian Malme, Norway's head of delegation and producer of Melodi Grand Prix told esctoday.com that "The big change for us this year is that all the composers and artists we actively approach to enter have changed their attitude completely. They are now starting to see the commercial potential and also the fun of participating. I seriously think that the quality of this years songs is the best in many years!"
The final will be held at the Spektrum in Oslo.
