First Song in our catch up cames from Greece

Song is called This is our Night. Singer is Sakis Rouvas.

Greece is definitely flying to the top with this song. Although this song would've been better if song in Greek, it's still an amazing song. Saki needs to control his body... and we know everyone is looking forward to an amazing show... hopefully it'll have something better than that cheesy back tumble flip thing. I can't stop dancing even after the song is done. It's so good.
