Bulgaria wins the 70th Eurovision Song Contest with upbeat party anthem ‘Bangaranga’ | Music News

Published by Parlour News

Bulgarian singer Dara won the 70th Eurovision Song Contest on Saturday with her infectious party anthem “Bangaranga,” giving the southeast European country its first-ever victory in the competition. Israeli competitor Noam Bettan came second after a contest in Vienna clouded by protests and a boycott over the country’s participation. Dara beat 24 other competitors during Saturday’s grand final of the sequin-drenched pop music competition. The song’s infectious beats and tightly choreographed dance routine proved a hit with both national juries in participating countries and viewers around the world, whose votes together decide the winner. “This is unbelievable,” Dara said at a post-show news conference early Sunday. “I don’t even know what’s going on.”She thanked “everyone who felt the bangaranga and felt connected to the force.” The 27-year-old performer is an established name in her homeland, but had not been among the favorites to win. Still, “Bangaranga” is the sort of pop banger that Eurovision does so well, with its irresistible exhortation: “Surrender to the blinding lights. No one’s gonna sleep tonight. Welcome to the riot.” …

It’s not easy when you don’t start well, but our destiny is still in our hands. We still have games left. If we keep putting in the work, the results will come. Sometimes it’s not just about the result – tonight was a good game, we just ended up on the wrong side. But wins will come if we keep doing the right things,” he said after the match.

IPL 2025: Pitch Dilemma For Under-Pressure Punjab Kings Against Upbeat KKR

Published by Webster

A beleaguered Punjab Kings need to pick up pieces after being blown away by ‘tornado’ Abhishek Sharma as they face yet another challenging opposition in Kolkata Knight Riders in Mullanpur on Tuesday. It is a rarity that a team loses after putting on board a mammoth score like 245 but Punjab Kings had to endure a hard-to-digest defeat due to Abhishek Sharma’s whirlwind knock of 141 off just 55 balls in their previous match against Sunrisers Hyderabad. A helpless Shreyas Iyer, who himself smashed a 36-ball 82, could only laugh at the end of the match after watching his bowlers torn to shreds by Abhishek’s blazing blade. The carnage unfolded in Hyderabad, where the flat Uppal track resembles a ‘national highway’ where no total is safe. On Tuesday, though, Punjab will play at their home in Mullanpur where the pitch is also conducive for batters and the team management needs to decide what kind of conditions it would prefer going forward. In the two matches at Mullanpur, 200-plus scores were managed by team …

On Wednesday as Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto sat for his first media briefing ahead of the Champions Trophy, he spent almost half it answering about their pacers. Out of those a majority were around Nahid Rana, their first 150kmph fast bowler, whose workload is the single most topic of discussion among cricket nerds back home. Shanto would give assurance that Rana is as excited and waiting to have a go against India’s top-order. But not until they saw Rana at the ICC Academy nets did there was a collective sigh of relief. Of the eight teams in the Champions Trophy that also includes Afghanistan, which is making its maiden appearance in the tournament, it is Bangladesh that start as rank outsiders. Ranked No 9 in the rankings, they just sneaked into the tournament on the expense of Sri Lanka via better run-rate at the 2023 World Cup. For the first time since 2007, Bangladesh have arrived for an ICC event sans Shakib Al Hasan, their estranged hero who was not so long ago the …

Published by Parlour News

Heavy polling in Kunnathunadu and Perumbavoor Assembly segments, which are part of the Chalakudy Lok Sabha constituency, has left the Twenty20 camp upbeat as it considers the belt as its stronghold. Kizhakkambalam, Mazhuvannoor, Aikkaranadu and Kunnathunadu panchayats governed by Twenty20 fall within the Kunnathunadu Assembly constituency, which led the charts in terms of voter turnout. Kunnathunadu racked up the biggest voter turnout across all 14 constituencies in Ernakulam district. Both Kunnathunadu and Perumbavoor Assembly constituencies were the first to cross the 60% voter turnout mark in the district with just two hours left for the polling to conclude. At final count, Kunnathunadu clocked a voter turnout of 78.11% and Perumbavoor 73.13%. “Heavy polling witnessed in our strongholds of Kunnathunadu, Perumbavoor, and Chalakudy is a clear sign in our favour. In fact, we will amass votes more than the combined vote share of UDF and LDF candidates. All three fronts will drop votes in our favour, and the LDF will suffer the biggest setback. Earlier, people did not have an option and had to alternate between …
