Now they revealed that those ideas will be a part of the Final.Jan Lagermand Lundme, Head of Show at DR, is impressed by the creativity behind the ideas: "We have received such an overwhelming number of fantastic ideas that we have now taken the decision to include the result of the contributions – the interval act based on the ideas – as part of the Final of the 2014 Eurovision Song Contest!"That said, we are far from done yet – we’ll enthusiastically accept more wild and spectacular ideas for acts that have never been seen on stage before. I don’t want to give too much away, but this will not be the last time we’ll ask for ideas and contributions from viewers and fans everywhere," he adds.The thousands of ideas tagged with #MyEurovisionIdea ooze of creativity and inspiration.

gafsa Posted January 20, 2014 at 06:10 AM Posted January 20, 2014 at 06:10 AM Too bad Bosnia will not participate this year, some of the song from Bosnia is my favorite like Lejla - Hari Matahari and Rijekom Bez Imena - Marija Sestic Quote
Daysleeper Posted January 20, 2014 at 01:50 PM Posted January 20, 2014 at 01:50 PM My country doesn't take part this year after many years of competing. In one way it's a pity, but maybe it's a good decision... No more embarrassment Quote

It's interesting to have this already known ... this is the first time I am actually following it through and through ... one question now: does this stay all out through the finale? or can it be changed? and I guess no other country can be added now? 1 Quote
