Performance and Vocal Awards

More results in the 2007 esctoday.com awards are announced: Let's see who won in the categories Best male performance, Best female performance, Best male vocal performance, Best female vocal performance and Best duo/group performance.

Best male performance

  1. Koldun of Belarus for Work your magic
  2. Roger Cicero of Germany for Frauen regier'n die Welt
  3. Kenan Doğulu  of Turkey for Shake it up shekerim
  4. Eiríkur Hauksson of Iceland for Valentine lost
  5. Hayko of Armenia for Anytime you need

Koldun from Belarus was the clear winner in this category and got 32.8% of the votes for his magical performance. Roger Cicero's classic rendition of Frauen regier'n die Welt without many show effects came second with 27.4% ahead of Kenan Doğulu from Turkey in third (16.0%). Eiríkur Hauksson is very close behind with 15.2% of the votes for his rock performance. Hayko's fairy-tale performance of Anytime you need was by far less popular and only scored 8.7%.

The winner is... Dima Koldun

Best female performance

  1. Magdi Rúzsa of Hungary for Unsubstantial blues
  2. Marija Šerifović of Serbia for Molitva
  3. Natalia Barbu of Moldova for Fight
    Edsilia Rombley of the Netherlands for On top of the world
  4. Sopho of Georgia for Visionary dream

Magdi Rúzsa has also won this award and got 24.7% of the votes and was more popular than this year's winner Marija Šerifović, who came second with 20.4% so that that we see performances of ballads in the top2 positions. Natalia Barbu of Moldova was close behind and got 19.0% and so was Edsilia Rombley who scored the same amount of votes. Sopho from Georgia was not very far from this position too, she got 16.8% of the votes.

And the winner - with her second award of the year - is Magdi Rusza:

Best male vocal performance

  1. Roger Cicero of Germany for Frauen regier'n die Welt
  2. Eiríkur Hauksson of Iceland for Valentine lost
  3. Bonaparti.lv of Latvia for Questa notte
  4. Hayko of Armenia for Anytime you need 
  5. Frederik Ndoci of Albania for Hear my plea

With 35.4%, Roger Cicero was the more than clear winner in this category for the rendition of his swing song. Rocker Eiríkur Hauksson is the runner-up with 25.1% while the only group that was nominated, Bonaparti.lv from Latvia finished third with 17.9% of the votes. Hayko from Armenia follows in fourthh position (14.9%), way ahead of Frederik Ndoci of Albania who only scored 6.7%.

The winner is... Roger Cicero:

 

Best female vocal performance

  1. Alenka Gotar of Slovenia for Cvet z juga
  2. Marija Šerifović of Serbia for Molitva
  3. Magdi Rúzsa of Hungary for Unsubstantial blues
  4. Edsilia Rombley of the Netherlands for On top of the world
  5. Natalia Barbu of Moldova for Fight

Seeing opera singer Alenka Gotar winning this award might be no surprise. With 27.3% of the votes, she is clear ahead of winner Marija Šerifović (23.7%) and Magdi Rúzsa from Hungary (22.4%). With a larger gap, Dutch Edsilia Rombley and Moldovan Natalia Barbu follow with 14.3% and 12.2% respectively.

The winner is... Alenka Gotar:

Best duo/group performance

  1. D'Nash of Spain for I love you mi vida
  2. Serebro of Russia for Song #1
  3. Elitsa Todorova & Stoyan Yankoulov of Bulgaria for Water
  4. Anonymous of Andorra for Salvem el món
  5. Bonaparti.lv of Latvia for Questa notte

It was a fight between a girl group and a boy group on top: in a close voting, D'Nash (26.4%) could win ahead of Serebro (25.1%) although Serebro were much more succesful in Helsinki. The only duo nominated, Elitsa & Stoyan of Bulgaria are not very far behind in third place with 23.7% of the votes. With a larger gap, Anonymous are fourth with 15.8% but still more popular than Bonaparti.lv who only got 8.9%. 

And the winners: D'Nash:

@ Sandra Åhlander;
Slovenia is far away from "No matter what Eastern Europe come with, they wins!"...
watch the slovenian result for last few years:
2007 with Alenka 15 place in the final
2006 no final, 16place semifinal
2005 no final; 12place semi final
2004 no final, 21place semifinal
2003 no final; 23 place
get the point?
:)

Magdi are overrated!

Congrats D'Nash!

Sarbel best performer? He was out of tune! And the vocals are an essential part of a performance. So Koldun definitely didn't deserve this either, as his voice is very limited too.

@Nick-Oh

It kinda fits with the song/video. I assume she just ran away from her lover's home... or something like that. I actually thought the performance was causal, yet very professional.

Roger & Alenka were the best vocalists of 2007 without doubt so I'm pleased to see them winning!

I agree Magdi is boring. Why everybody liked her performance so much? She was dressed lke coming from the country side, waiting for the bus, and her voice is scratching my brains. In my opinion Marija and Natalia were better, with the best vocal skills. Congrats to Koldun - well deserved victory. What about Sarbel, he is missing from Male Performers list...Hmmmm

Yes Roger and Alenka abolute deserved to win! :D
My choice for group was Andorra. ;)

Yay for Roger (my choice absolutely). My best duo/group was Bulgaria, I think....

Congrats Magdi! :)
Fortunately Fabio Deluca is in an absolute minority with his hateful comments.

FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alenka got an award!!!
Damn right that she had the best performance!

I am tired of Magdi in every category, she puts me to sleep every time I hear her boring song. By the way, Koldun's performance was not that great. Too much hyped.

Looking back now, it's a DISGRACE that Germany was not in the top 5! It's an amazing performance and an amazing song! Congratulations Roger! You're a superstar!
