Latvia: Intars Busulis has a chat with Esctoday.com
In this interview we hear the former boy band member tell how his song Probka is not only about a traffic jam, as the title suggests, but a general comment against consumerism and the current economical crisis. He also says it is in a way a follow-up to Gonki (Races) that he was runner-up with at the Latvian national final in 2008.
Intars also tells that rockier songs like Probka are not really typical of him, but he really loves jazz. He has also visited Moscow and its jazz clubs several times before.
We also hear he has learned his English from films and music. He also mentions Latvian beer, that was served at the reception and it’s apparently so good Latvian’s hate to see it leave. Also, Intars is not completely covered in tattoos despite some rumours.
Please watch the interview for yourself below:

Lol, he is a cute weirdo. I listened to other songs by him on YouTube and I think he is good. He sings well and I like the song. I doubt it will qualify though.
The other baltic nation entries are far superior to this. Wont be suprised if this doesnt qualify.
jajaja he´s so funny and also so cute!
i hope to see him in the final!
his song is very different and i liked it!
good luck latvia!
