Portuguese Eurovision fans should start a petition to have DULCE PONTES, MARIZA or ROSA NEGRA represent them at ESC with a powerful fado-ballad on the lines of Rosa Negra's "Fado Ladino", Mariza's "Cavaleiro Monge" or the sublime "Cancao do Mar".

This is the only way I see for Portugal to gain a very HIGH result at Eurovision...and maybe WIN IT TOO!

Fado music is sooo beautiful- I would love to see traditional Portuguese music at ESC!!!

Dulces Pontes is a great singer, I love her ESC- entry. I'm sure her new album will be a great success...
