I Was So disappointed with the way the Malta Song For Europe was presented this year.

Firstly, I do not agree with televoting whenever it is held.

Secondly, the best songs came at the end.

Thirdly, when the microphones failed during two songs, the songs should have been stopped and performed again immediately, not performed again at the end; that way those two songs were performed nearly three times and it was not fair on the others.

Fourthly, the organising committee should have been prepared for this.

Neither did I like Xarabank. It should have never been allowed. Peppi Azzopardi was out of order sometimes. Some artists taking part were interviewed three or four times and others were left out. This is not fair.

Now that this is over, all Maltese radio stations, especially PBS, should be encouraged to play the festival songs. Some of the ones which didn't make it are good and they can challenge any song abroad. It would be a good idea to play more Maltese songs instead of Italian songs during weekend sports programmes.
