Wow I thought Zara was going for the win! Didn't even cross my mind to go with Lush Life, probably because I've heard it 50 million times since it was first released.

The next one is the higher of the Romanian athletes. Saxobeat would be an awesome last name to have.

The next one took an early lead. But, lost out on a podium spot and a medal at the end. Many people might want to go to Ibiza after hearing this.

Winning a bronze medal is this cool summer tune from the 90s. I live in Canada, and we only have short summers here. So, everyone is trying their best to make the most out of the summer weather.

And now we are down to two. Who will win the gold medal and be the champion of the Best Summer Song contest?

brb or TerryP?

Bellini or Las Ketchup?

Germany or Spain?

It's an exciting finish. The IOC looks at the scoreboard. 116 points and 117 points. Who win it all in the end?

Excellent hosting Lurkio, the Olympic styling was a nice touch.

The next one is surprisingly our only Balkan participant. Many have not qualified for this final. Maybe the sexy dancing is too much for the audience here.

Edit: Oops, I forgot about the Romanians.
